A lot of people tend to look at the IMDb Top 250 as if it were a definitive list of the best movies ever made; to take this approach when studying the list, of course, is sure to inspire one thing and one thing only: unbridled frustration.

In fact, it's actually kind of bizarre as to how they've managed to receive so many positive votes and have worked their way up to the very top of the database.
