@Tsarstepan

Are you limiting the size of ones list to say... a top 5 or a top 10?

Maybe maximum 25. I don't want the poll to become too massive.

Note: I added your picks.

@Tsarstepan

Lots of movies that I highly anticipated on that list. I planned to watch Drive my Car and Licorice Pizza, but, a few days ago, the government of my province announced that I would close theaters yet again 😢. It is not a good era to be a cinephile.

I think it would be better to set a limit of 5, to make it equal for everyone and easier for the voters to look through the lists.

@Jessica 

You are right I will limit it to 5 films.

If you could please add Belle(2021) to my number 1 position and drop the French Dispatch from its current fifth place, I would be ever so grateful.

@cinephile​ 

Thanks. Maybe you could edit the title to reflect that, for instance:

IMDb Poll Board 5 Favorite Movies of 2021

@Jessica​ 

I'm not interested in this poll anymore. It feels to me like a lesser version of NDbportmanfan's poll. And seemingly, users were less interested to the concept because I got fewer suggestions.

Cinephile as he is wrongly treating his own poll suggestion.

Me, as I watch helpless.

@cinephile​ 

Please replace 'Nobody' with 'Don't Look Up'.

Thanks.

I also need my list updated. 

Placing Belle (2021) on my top spot and bumping the rest down one notch. Even if that means kicking The French Dispatch off my top 5 films.

@Breumaster​ If you rate all the movies you watch, then you can find all 2021 titles you have seen here Otherwise, a list of all the movies, including documentaries, video and tv movies released in 2021 is here.

@Pencho15​ 

Thank you, Pencho. That's helpful I'll take a look at it. :D

@Pencho15​ It probably be better to rank them in descending order of each user's IMDb rating for each film.

I also think the actual wide or limited release date should be from sometime in 2021, as there were lots of movies whose releases were bumped from 2020 into 2021, but maybe tagged 2020 due to a festival showing or another reason.

@Breumaster,​

IMHO, a simple tweak can get this suggestion on track. NDbportmanfan's poll focuses on the best top movie, needless to say the list is going to be littered tons of award season favorites. 

I think your poll should focus on board member's personal favorites or guilty pleasure movies that are not going to win the Oscar, but are very endearing nonetheless. Your poll will have a different spin and different pool of answers as a result. After all, the movie that you think should win the Oscar (Best) isn't likely to be the same movie you enjoyed the most (Favorite). I think it would be better to emphasize that in how your question is phrased.

FYC,

Which poll board member's list of their five personal favorite films released in 2021 most closely matches your own taste in movies?

1) Spiderman: No Way Home

2) The Suicide Squad

3) The White Tiger

4) Don't Look Up

5) The Father

I want to change #5 (The Father) to Cruella.

Sorry, I didn't see that you gave up on this suggestion, cinephile. It's a shame though.

@albstein​ 

you gave up on this suggestion

I might revise that opinion since I have received suggestions since.
