Re: Empires Top 10 movies of all time.

I think the most definitive list has to be the IMDB one doesn't it? Ongoing, ever evolving based on millions of user ratings. 1. The Shawshank Redemption (1994) 9.2 RATE 2. The Godfather (1972) 9.2 RATE 3. The Godfather: Part II (1974) 9.0 RATE 4. The Dark Knight (2008) 8.9 RATE 5. Pulp Fiction (19...

Re: Empires Top 10 movies of all time.

What a joke. Apparently these people think that only english speaking countries have movies... Also, what is it with star wars? Cheesy b movies at best. Ground breaking movie.

Empires Top 10 movies of all time.

From today's NZ Herald. Debate. Star Wars film The Empire Strikes Back has been voted the greatest movie of all time in a poll of more than 250,000 film fans. The film, released in 1980 three years after the first Star Wars movie, topped a poll of 301 titles in Empire magazine. Francis Ford Coppola'...

Thought the original Daario Naharis was excellant . Reminded me of young Conan, had the arrogance. This new Daario Naharis comes across as some posh mouthed English Lord. Very poor and little chemistry with the mother of Dragons hottie. Disappointing.

Based on my calculations, if the RWC/Rugby Champoinship pts system was adopted for the 6 nations then the table would have looked like this.

Ireland 18
England 18
Wales. 13
France. 13
Scotland 4
Italy. 1
