Best Website Ever!

Postby Darko on Wed Aug 20, 2008 10:54 pm

For an addicted filmwatcher.
I got 2people already into this site, 2 RL Friends.

Criticker > imdb.

The User number will rise very high in the next years i think.
There is nothing to compare.
Alone that we Users can Add missing Movies is Superior.

I pray for the day that I will never have to look at imdb again.

Well that's not going to happen soon, and I hope it doesn't ever happen. There is no use getting furious with mediocreness of imdb crown, after all it's a huge bussiness. But as a movie database it has good use. Think about it going down, we would have real trouble gathering up info about movies from one compact place and it will take sometime until someone else takes up the job, criticker is totally something else. So everything has its place like the way it is imo.

I only realised recently that Criticker totally pwns. Before, I thought Criticker pwnd just a bit, until I realised how much I love all the personalised little features on Criticker. Criticker should keep playing that as their trump card.


Although it may be sad to hear, I actually go to IMDb first when deciding to watch a movie. I don't like to see such a specific probable score before I've seen a film as I fear it will influence my viewing experience. Perhaps if Criticker just showed the probable selected tier (like a PTI) which you could then click on to reveal the PSI in the FIP. But I think that's a little too much to ask for likely such a unique issue.

Anyway. Yay Criticker! ..My second most visited website.


As I have mentioned before, my favourite feature is being able to save kumpels with modal common Tier 10 films. For such an awkward viewer, this has great potential for discovering the movies I love.

Criticker is usually the first site I visit whenever I open a browser, no matter what I opened the browser for. :P

I don't ever check IMDb to see if I should watch a movie.. I only go to IMDb for info, fun trivia and stuff.

Same here, except that Gmail is usually the absolute first thing that I visit since it's my browser home page :P.

Well I was exaggerating, but I really only use imdb for submitting movies to Criticker.

My top sites are:

http://www.find-dvd.co.uk for finding the cheeapest DVD prices (and books, games, CDs etc) for the UK - they also have a facility where you can set a DVD 'target price' and if any store drops below that price it emails you to tell you!

Zetaminor and the Roobarb's Forum (http://www.zetaminor.com) - site dedicated to DVD enthusiasts, with the aim of having the "latest news about forthcoming DVD releases, disc reviews, and information on cult and neglected TV series." with a very active forum.

DVD Profiler (http://www.invelos.com) - site supporting the DVD Profiler software product which allows me to track and profile all those DVDs I have and want with a pretty good forum.

I'm only now really starting to get into Criticker and hope the forums see more activity as they are the things that tend to keep me 'regular'
