Definitely need a rewrite on this one.

Maybe change the title to either (mind the capitalization):

IMDb Poll Board's Top 10 Movies Which had the Biggest Impact On Their Childhood
or
IMDb Poll Board's Top 10 Movies That had a Profound Effect on Their Childhood

I'd also lose the unnecessary first paragraph. I'm can't understand what an uncountable movie is.

The main question needs rewriting as well even if it means just spellchecking the sentence.

Here's a possible rewrite you might consider or take the gist from.

Which of these lists, created by our fellow IMDb Poll Board members, made up of top 10 sentimental childhood favorites* is the closest to yours? Barring that, which of these lists, created by our fellow IMDb Poll Board members, made up of their top 10 sentimental childhood favorites do you look most fondly on?

*Movies which the person has seen (theatrically, at home, etc...) before they turned the age of 18.

@TheOldJalapenomanI just catched your posting: 

  1.  Tarzan the Ape Man (1932)  My first favorite movie character
  2.  Bambi (1942)  Made me negative against hunting until I actually grew up
  3.  Arsenic and Old Lace (1944)  The first movie that I wanted to do the play version of in high school drama
  4.  Swiss Family Robinson (1960)  The first film that made me want to read the original book
  5.  The Great Escape (1963)
  6.  The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1969)  My favorite movie as a kid
  7.  Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970)  Helped me develop patriotism
  8.  Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)  As an adult, this is my favorite all time movie
  9.  Butterflies are Free (1972)  The first movie where I fell in love with the star/The first movie where a woman "turned me on"
  10.  Jesus Christ, Superstar (1973)  The first controversial film that I went to see just to witness to controversy

I hope this is what you want.  Some of these are from before I was born, but I tried to stay with movies that affected me in different ways as a kid.Do you still want me to put it on the list? It vanished from the thread, somehow.

If you mean to include influential movies up until 18 years old, then perhaps childhood should be replaced. I understand Childhood is considered to last until 12 years old.
