Here are the rules :
- Anyone is allowed to participate (you have to be a legitimate Listal members though, no bogus account allowed).
- You have to provide 10 Asian movies, the first one being your favorite Asian movie of all time. The first movie you picked get 10 points, the last one get 1 point.
- Only the 50 first reactions will be included. (the number might get bigger once we reach it)
- When the 2 movies have the same amount of points, the movie with the most voters go ahead.
- When the 2 movies have the same amount of points and voters, the first movie added go ahead.
Note : Thanks to johanlefourbe for developing the rules.
Sorry, I won't join this list for the time being. I'm too busy with my own list. The point is that, last year, after I published 'Listal's 100 movies...', about 30 copycats (!) were done afterwards :
- Listal's best actors
- Listal's best directors
- Listal's best TV shows
- Listal's best video games
- Listal's most overrated movies
- Listal's most underrated movies
- Listal's best horror movies
- Listal's best romantic comedies
- Lista's most beautiful actress
- Listal's most beautiful models
- Listal's worst movies
- Listal's best members (I'm serious!)
- Listal's sexiest members (I'm serious!)
- Listal's biggest dick (that's a joke...)
-.....
A few were good but most of them were just messy and were never finished. Creating such a list is an awfull lot of work and ask a lot of commitment from the one creating it. Look, if you reach 50 members, send me another message and I would be glad to join the party.
