I also have been trying to catch up on the Worldwide Box Office Hits, which is now moved to Box Office Mojo. But IMDb Top 250 movies has always my go to place for picking good movies. The list keeps changing over time, and I keep chasing it. But over these years, it is either The Shawshank Redemption or The Godfather at #1.
Then they introduced IMDb Top 250 Indian movies, which introduced me to several movies I would otherwise never have heard of. C/o Kancharapalem, Sairat, Omkara, Mathu Vadalara, Ulidavaru Kandanthe, Sapta Sagaradaache Ello: Side A to name a few.
Later, they introduced a subset of the Top 50 movies from Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam.
After finally gathering the courage to watch Pithamagan and Peranbu (I had thought both would be too depressing), I have now completed all the films in the Top 50 Tamil movies.
Here is the list of Top 50 ranked Tamil movies, I have completed:
1) Nayakan
2) Anbe Sivam
3) Pariyerum Perumal
4) Rocketry: The Nambi Effect
5) Meiyazhagan
7) Thevar Magan
8) Thalapathi
9) Interrogation
10) Anniyan
11) Kaithi
12) Soorarai Pottru
13) Kadaisi Vivasayi
14) Asuran
15) Sarpatta Parambarai
16) Thani Oruvan
17) Vada Chennai
18) Jai Bhim
19) Maharaja
20) Ratsasan
21) Resurrection
22) Mudhalvan
23) Mahanadi
24) Iruvar
25) Michael Madana Kama Rajan
26) Virumandi
27) Papanasam
28) Kannathil Muthamittal
29) Pudhu Pettai
30) Moondram Pirai
31) Kuruthipunal
32) Mandela
33) Vikram Vedha
34) Vikram
35) Aaranya Kaandam
36) Super Deluxe
37) The Crow's Egg
38) Jigarthanda
39) Aruvi
40) Pithamagan
41) Soodhu Kavvum
42) Thillu Mullu
43) Theeran Adhigaram Ondru
44) Baasha
45) Alai Payuthey
46) Apoorva Sagodharargal
47) Padayappa
48) Mouna Ragam
49) Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru
50) Chithha
So, one more list conquered. 😊
I am long way away with the international list having seen only 172/250. So now the target is Top 250 Indian movies as rated by IMDb Users (202/250 watched).
