When we first started Trash Epics, I was pretty hung-up on b-movies, Troma, slashers, etc. I added a bunch of those to the movie database, then we brought in a few other users to add their titles, and now we have a few thousand titles on here. This is more than I've seen, but it isn't about me, which is why I've been adding those titles I don't particularly like, but some of you might. It's all about getting that contrasting perspective to know how shitty real shit is, and where other people's tastes lie.

With that said, I think it's great that we've got sort of a council of movie-goers here who rate as many titles as they know, and to those of you reading who don't vote on things... Why not?

I've watched a lot of movies in my life. I like movies, a bit more than the average man, if I do say so myself. That's why I can say I've seen over a thousand movies, and the quest always continues. We're always trying to find more movies to fill the void, and inspire us with concepts we've never seen before. I think there are still a plethora of b-movies, exploitaiton films, horrors, and ocassional normal-people movies out that have yet to be touched upon. It's all about discussing stuff, and getting those recommendations.

Are there titles we don't have listed that you think should be here? Perhaps an unsung classic that we've all miraculously overlooked? I only adds 'em as I sees 'em. Does this database mean anything to you? I think IMDb had weighted ratings that tend to make them rather useless. You know, all those people rating only 1s and 10s? Then there's those film snobs with their heads so far up their asses, they only like arthouse movies? Bias hits hard on IMDb, and I trust the voices of my peers over here when it comes to entertainment.

personally i love it. it can get quite addictive adding movies, and by doing so you get more knowledge of cast n crew etc, then you can add them to the 'people' database and link it all up. plus the tags are great for mini lists, if you're in the mood for, i dunno, a 'cannibal alcohol dog' flick you can see whats out there.

rating is fun too, i am learning a little of some TE folks tastes and can use that to tailor stuff to my own, or even to contrast and challenge myself with a film i have prejudice against that others enjoyed. my own ratings are based almost entirely on my view of the movie, but can usually go a point either way. sometimes i change on a re-view or even mere contemplation: recently i've seen both Killing of a Sacred Deer & Brawl in Cell Block 99, the former i bumped from 7 to 8 and the latter im about to bump from 8 to 9 (imdb ratings)

have to admit i err on the side of adding stuff i like, and not adding any shitty romcom i may have been forced to endure. ah well, that aint gonna change. oh and the lists are really cool too, top/bottom 100 and of year etc. maybe a challenge could be to watch 50 top or bottom TE movies in a month... maybe not fiddy, bit high, no set limit perhaps better. anyway im merrily rambling the fuck away here, best sto
