Live Poll : Best Movie in South Asia?

@Tsarstepan Okay. Then I guess I have to leave some movies from the list.

@Tsarstepan I think it's okay now.

@CyrilMartin That's a great movie. The world-class performance of R. Madhavan & Vijay Sethupathi makes this movie one of the best.

@Jessica Thank you. Corrected.

Thank you @Pencho15. I have edited the text.

@Brijesh Definitely some of the good movies will not make the list if we set universal rules for all countries. Some of the countries didn't have that many movies above 8.0 ratings. So, it will end up with just one or two countries. Regarding your thoughts on keeping 1000 votes, it will also create some issues for some countries like India. India has several states and several movie industries to represents their movie. So, if you mention about just 1000 thousand votes, It will be challenging to select some movies from all states or industries. For India, popularity and number of votes should matter to create that list. If not, I have to put some movies on the list that most of us never heard about that before.

Definitely some of the good movies will not make the list if we set universal rules for all countries. That is not how I thought. I was thinking to have just 1 parameter, so it doesn't look like an unfair comparison. My point was about explicitly stating different parameters because 8.0 with 10,000 votes is not same as 8.0 with 1,000 votes. So, you could choose not to mention the criteria by saying that you picked top 3 or top 5 from each country. With minimum 1,000 votes, you would not get too obscure titles. This way you will have equal representation from each country. Currently you have Nepal - 2, Sri Lanka - 2, Pakistan - 3, Bangladesh - 9, India - 19. This makes it highly skewed towards India. If you go this way you might have representation from other countries as well which you have excluded now. If think you need more from India, you could pick Hindi and non-Hindi separately, if you like. Hope I am not rambling too much! At the end of the day, it's your poll. :)

If you decide to go the way I suggested, the result could still end up skewed towards Indian movies because of reasons. But, that would be voters deciding that rather than poll maker.

@Pencho15 That's a great suggestion. I will take that for sure. That would definitely avoid someone taking it the wrong way. Thank you for your suggestion.

@dan_dassow Thank you so much :)
