Check out my list: http://www.ymdb.com/user_top20_view.asp?usersid=4358

My highest match is under 25%. Strange, I agree with my picks 100%.

Who's got the lowest number percentage as their top affinity? The person with the highest affinity to me is at 34.80%.

The lower your top affinity, the higher your list's individuality.

Blast my highest affinty is 25.48% it was 23% but unfortunately someone else changed their list. I am however changing my list, I saw a m ovie tonight that was ridiculously great "800 Balas" which is one of the most fun, touching, enjoyable, and heartstoppingly great film I've seen in a long time. I've reacted in a theather only a few times in such memory, at the special edition rereleases of the first three Star Wars, at Attack of hte Clones and at The Two Towers (and Fellowship, but TTT moreso) just an absolutely wonderful splendifourously orgasmical cinematic experience. I could go on and on and on about this film, and it's an absolute crime because I know that no studio will ever, EVER show this in theaters in the US probably again. at least not until the censors have gotten to it and cut out the questionable parts (one of which is excellent character insight, and the other is a classic and charming moment involving the kid and the hooker).

marvelous absolutely marvelous film, my top twenty is being updated! and I have the dubious distinction of being the only person ranking this film and had to add it to the database!

Adam

Followed the Star Wars Saga route, and I guess not surprisingly, Evan Case turns out to be one of the closest to my list at 27.77%.

Disregard that last post, as I forgot about two of my all-time favs: Ladyhawke and The Neverending Story. Got rid of Halloween and A Nightmare On Elm Street to make room for them and reordered the list slightly. Also added Virus, but I can't remember what I removed to make room for it.:b

So, here's the modified affinity stats. Sorry Brian; now I win. My best is 14.43%, Weinberg is now second, and the only percentage to change by more than a full point.

Weinberg: 14.38%
Chmiel: 10.52%
Justin: 10.14%
Jeremy A: 6.72%
Jeremy C: 6.05%
Nick: 4.26%
Rob: 4.18%
Andy: 3.81%
Evan: 3.38%
Dome: 3.16%
Chris: 3.11%
Kirk: 2.44%

Actually a lot of people have "Hard Boiled" on their lists if you look it up under it's original title

Thanks! I corrected that, and also The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. They'll probably want to get a better search engine on that site, for those of us who aren't as good with foreign films' original titles
