IMDB Top 250 in 2 1/2 Minutes

This is one incredible list of films/movies. If Peter Weyland wanted
David to learn about cinema while the crew of Prometheus was still in
hyper sleep, he'd probably have him go down the IMDB Top 250. This
list does change infrequently, and I began the project over a month
prior to November 1, 2012, so yes...I know
some of these movies are not on the top 250. 53 Titles to be exact
(as of 11/1/12).

From what I can gather, each film that makes it on the list has to have a rating of at least 8/10 on IMDB. After all this is a democracy, so each film does appear because of a substantial amount of votes. However, I couldn't put "The Avengers" in without "Ferris Bueller", and I wasn't going to let "Scarface" slide if "Bringing Out The Dead" wasn't in there too.

Either way, I hope you all enjoy it.

The song, by the way, can be found here on youtube. It is a mashup
mix of Joan Jett, The Beatles, House of Pain and Cypress Hill by the
very talented DJ FAROFF. His opens with a cut from Rage Against The
Machine, but it didn't work with the video.

After the last two videos (163 Horror Films in 2.5 Minutes and Dance of the Criterion Collection), I had a lot of support and motivation from many bloggers, journalists, heroes and friends who deserve a special call out.

Very Special Thanks to the incredible team at The Criterion Collection, Roger Ebert and The Chicago
Sun Times, Uncle Creepy and Bloody Disgusting, Dan Adler, Kyle Wilken,
Flying Lotus and the gang at Brainfeeder, Brian South, Kira South,
Drew Miller, Samantha Mantor and of course, Tiffany Smith who without
her patience, support, tolerance and encouragement I would have thrown
my lap top out of a window.

Please Enjoy, Share and Create.

I like the part where both Stanley Kubrick and Quentin Taratino movies mix together, all their movies are great and they are two of my all time favorite directors.

[Jonathan Keogh]

Thanks, I love that part, nobody's seem to caught that bit yet. It goes from some Kubrick one point perspective shots, to the Tarantino trunk shots, to the Spike Lee Dolly shots.
