It appears that remarkably swiftly Fellowship of The Ring has become the best film of all time. At least according to the IMDB. The IMDB's ratings take into account the total number of ratings (so that if only 10 people in total vote for a film, it can never be rated as highly as a film getting a lower average, but 16,000 voters), but despite having only 7000 votes as compared to The Godfather's 44000, it's pushed it out of the top spot. With more votes pouring in over the next few weeks, I'll be intrigued to see how this one plays out.
