Live Poll: Best Bengali Movie (2010-2019)

Thanks for the suggestion.

I think you should correct the question to: What do you think is the best Bengali movie?

Please also add a link from your list to this post by using this code under the question:

Great poll suggestion EndShuvo. Its always great to have a chance to feature new cinematographies.

Please do the two changes that Peter told you so that this poll can be published, the link is mandatory so the poll can go live.

I searched and find some other well rated films that could be a part of your poll.

They are all in the rating and number of votes range you used.:

Nagarkirtan (2017)

Kiriti Roy (2016)

Shonar Pahar (2018)

Meghe Dhaka Tara (2013)

Asha Jaoar Majhe (2014)

Dhananjay (2017)

Jalaler Golpo (2014)

Mukherjee Dar bou (2019)

Bisorjon (2017)

Hi Endshuvo and welcome to the poll board! : )

This is a very good list of good movies and think it's very close to being a very good poll. In general, we don't publish polls that are simply a list of the poll author's favorites or what the poll author thinks are the best films, actors, or other such things. Certainly, we try to not have the poll appear to simply be a poll author's random choices and instead have the authors establish guidelines that the authors use to create the lists. Since all of these movies have relatively high ratings, you wouldn't have to do much to make it a less personal list, which would make it more likely to "go live" (be published as an actual poll on which people can vote.) I would suggest these two easy changes:

1. The film on your list with the lowest IMDb rating has a 7.7 rating and the film with the lowest number of votes has 471 votes so I did a search (using iMDb's "advanced" search engine) for Bengali movies, released between 2010 and 2019, with ratings of at least 7.7 and at least 470 votes. I got the following results:

https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=feature&release_date=2010-01-01,2019-12-31&user_rating=7.7,10.0&num_votes=470,&languages=bn&sort=user_rating,desc

You already have 23 of the 30 movies listed and obviously you can choose not to include 'Lion,' since that's primarily an English language film. If you add the other six films, it would be a completely IMDb-based list, which is generally preferred for polls.

2. Then all you'd have to do is slightly change the introduction to remove the reference to your top choices. I'd suggest something like this:

Here are the top Bengali Movies from 2010 to 2019, according to IMDb ratings.* What do you think is the best Bengali movie so far?

*Movies with at least a 7.7 IMDb rating and at least 470 votes.
