Well almost all of those movies are turkish, almost voted on exclusively by non-US (probably turkish) males as 10/10 ... so kinda skews the results.
and Nuovo cinema Paradiso sticks out as being the only "famous" movie on that list (it also won an oscar, golden globe, etc) ...

Well it's not their fault you only watch American stuff  if anything there are more American movies in the top 100 then they deserve, you didn't even see these how do you know they are not good.

Well there are 300 million Americans that only watch american movies and only vote for them so I think that's an even bigger problem, not sure why pick on the Turks there are 80 million of them and they have less internet.

You don't see anyone bitching about the top250 list, 'infested' with Hollywood movies. It's inevitable with an international board, people will vote according to their taste.
As for Ataturk being chosen as man of the millenium, why would a Turk not vote for the man who pretty much singlehandedly saved Turkey from being a collection of seperated states? Americans will vote for their hero, British for their own and Turks for theirs. And not to mention there are probably alot more Americans on this planet than Turks, so blame them for not voting.
PS. all of the Turkish movies on that list are Turkish classics. Doesn't mean anything if they're not English and/or not made by Hollywood.

Doesn't your first post suggest that you believe those movies shouldn't be there? Doesn't that mean you believe those movies aren't 'worthy', which means they're not good?
And what does it matter if the Turks had a gatherup for that crappy election? It probably used internet and sms, so everyone will cheat. It's as reliable as the European Song festival.
Your posts suggest you're disagreeing with that IMDB list and the millenium election. I'm just pointing out those two things mean shit. No you're not saying those movies are crap, you're hinting at it. Would it be better if those movies were made in the USA?

Mate - how about if you respect this thread by stfu with the stuff thats not relevant to the question?
The millenium election is something I disagre with - the imdb is another question.
Im not fucking hinting at anything you stupid cunt. Dont make your fucking asumptions all the time.

Sorry to you both for my outburst - it's just that I get so frustrated when people just can't stick to the subject instead of making stupid asumptions.

You're bringing up the millenium election thing, I react to it. You're pointing out that the IMDB list consist of movies you've never heard of, I'm pointing out it's inevtiable with an international site/board and not all movies on there can be English. All of my posts 'respect the thread' (whatever teh fuck that may mean).

No, i mentioned it quickly. Your post doesnt "respect the thread" as I still havent seen you answer the simple question at the first post. So don't give me that crap mate.
AND your seem to be totally unable to see that in the first post I just point out that "atleast I havent heard of them" so thats why I ask if anyone here (non turkish) have. Its a plain and simple question. Also, you missed the post where I said that I personally dont just watch American movies. Far from it (I mentioned that my dvd collection has just as many non-american ones).

Guess I misunderstood you then. As for non-Turks seeing those Turkish movies, since none of them were translated as far as I know of, it's doubtfull anyone not skilled in Turkish has ever seen them. The movies are also pretty old, so a translation will probably never be available.
It is surprising though that those movies weren't pushed lower by recent movies. I never knew so many Turks voted on IMDB. Or there's something wrong with the rating system obviously.
Edit: Obviously there's something wrong with the system.

it's weird too because every other 'top genre' category has a wide mix of american and international films from all decades, each with several thousand votes.

Just noticed this myself looking for some good comedy over at IMDB (actually did a thread about it, did not see this thread until now, so deleted)
And yea looks like they should see over their site a bit better .
