p 250 6/17/2011 DVDrip

This is a collection of all 250 movies in the IMDb top 250 as of June 17th, 2011. There is another text file called 250.txt that has an exact copy of the list at the time it was taken. All movies are DVDrips to not only keep the size down (I may do a 1080p/720p version if it seems worth it), and also to keep people from complaining on not knowing how to play or having problems with .mkv files (.avi = simplicity). If there are any unwanted subtitles playing in your movie, just select to have them not play in VLC. There are also a few non-English movies which have hardcoded English subs; if you don't want those you'll have to download your own copy of the movie. However, if there are any English movies with hardcoded subs, please let me know. I also recommend using VLC for playing them, as it should be compatible with all of the subtitle setups. Some special exceptions to the movies (in order of rank): #3 - The Godfather Pt. II is in .mp4 format. Get over it. #4 - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is the EXTENDED EDITION #15 - Goodfellas is the SPECIAL EDITION #42 - Taxi Driver is the COLLECTERS EDITION #47 - Spirited Away is ENGLISH DUBBED (the original language is Japanese) #63 - Das Boot is the UNCUT EDITION, and is also split into 3 parts #73 - Cinema Paradiso is in .mp4 format. Get over it. #85 - Full Metal Jacket is the RESTORED EDITION #93 - Metropolis is the RESTORED EDITION #107 - Princess Mononoke is ENGLISH DUBBED (the original language is Japanese) #117 - Blade Runner is the REMASTERED DIRECTOR'S CUT #124 - Grave of the Fireflies is ENGLISH DUBBED (the original language is Japanese), but can be toggled between the two languages by selecting a different audio track #125 - Ran is in .mkv format. Get over it. The subs are also embedded within the file #149 - Scarface is the UNCUT AND COLLECTORS' EDITION #157 - Groundhog Day is the SPECIAL EDITION #169 - Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is in .m4v format. Get over it. #184 - My Neighbour Totoro is ENGLISH DUBBED (the original language is Japanese), but can be toggled between the two languages by selecting a different audio track #212 - Fanny and Alexander is the LONG VERSION, it's the original miniseries which was rleased as one movie, not the 188-minute theatrical release #221 - Magnolia is in .mkv format. Get over it. #222 - Nights of Cabiria is in .mkv format. Get over it. #240 - His Girl Friday is the REMASTERED EDITION #250 - Castle in the Sky is ENGLISH DUBBED (the original language is Japanese)

This seems like a great idea !!!

thruggie (2011-06-23)

This is a wonderful idea ...however I do not want to participate in this torrent for as a bulls eye will be on your back for sure on this monster .Good luck and Godspeed.

 TPBAgri (2011-06-24)

Great effort...
But you may have to seed it till all eternity if you want to keep it alive.
Good luck.

pqlamz (2011-06-24)

truggie, am I actually running a serious risk uploading this non-anonymously?

pqlamz (2011-06-24)

And also guys, BE PATIENT AND PLEASE SEED! I can not stress this enough! This torrent has already had 77 downloads in 1 day and I can't upload quickly to all of you. I've uploaded about 20GB so far and it's frustrating when people quit out, wasting all of that upload. Once we get a few complete downloads going and some proper seeders this will go faster!

daanvantilburg1993 (2011-07-04)

nice I waited for a long time for this pack i will seed

wombler11 (2011-07-12)

Hey Mr. Seeder come back. My seedbox is ready to go!!

wombler11 (2011-07-13)

Why does pqlamz put it up if he ain't gonna seed it? Another post and run... Good quality torrent, 30+ leechers waiting to go. Sigh, just need a feckin seed!!

pqlamz (2011-07-22)

GUYS! I'm sorry I haven't been seeding... I sort of live in a different country. I'll see if I can get it up and running again within the week, if not I have to wait until December. So...

smitty923 (2011-08-24)

Any update on whether you will get a chance to seed anytime soon?
Thx

zaroba (2011-09-18)

nice collection.
probably be a lot faster to DL all the movies individually though

pqlamz (2011-10-12)

Okay, update guys. December 4th is the seeding date, so prepare. I may have small bouts of seeding before that, but only if I'm lucky. Sorry about the bad upload timing, but I'll be able to seed for 2 months after the 4th of December (which should put at least a few copies of this out there for you generous seeders, right?)

Eraz (2011-10-23)

Guys I am at 98.1% seeding like hell but I still could not finish my own download.
It is nice to hear that someone will upload after 4th of december for 2 months but if there is someone out there who can seed PLEASE DO SO!!
Like I sad I am seeding but cant get the last part which is 1.9% and I believe there are many people who are waiting at 98.1%.

liberalul83 (2011-11-10)

I'm stuck at 98.1% for two weeks now, this is an incomplete torrent :(

bunion4 (2011-11-12)

Ok people! We can resurrect this torrent!
Here are some of the incomplete films! Go through the incomplete films and download one or two of them elsewhere (exact same file size and release group). If everyone does this we shall soon have a complete torrent.
For example, i just downloaded
The Wrestler[2008]DvDrip - CANiBUS.avi and put it in the directory and now im at 98.2%. Every little helps.

bunion4 (2011-11-12)

If you add a complete film to the torrent post here to let everyone know! We can do this!

bunion4 (2011-11-12)

I know im stating the obvious here but you can use the incomplete files in the separate torrent you use to complete it then bring it back into the main torrent.

bunion4 (2011-11-13)

Added Manually: The Wrestler, Chinatown, the wild bunch and witness for the prosecution to boost %. Please help by doing this for a few films, find torrent for same file and copy over the incomplete file then bring it back.

bunion4 (2011-11-13)

right im at 98.5 now... you guys all do a few films... PROFIT

bunion4 (2011-11-13)

Manually completed a few more films.. anyone plz do the same.. Dont wanna sound patronizing but all it takes is 1.Find identical torrent but for individual film. 2.Stop this film torrent. 2.Copy incomplete file from this torrent to the 0% complete one in the individual torrent directory, force recheck and complete last few %. Replace incomplete file in top 250 torrent directory with complete, and do a force recheck. Just did this for another few films.. If lots of us do this we dont have to wait till December 4th...

bunion4 (2011-11-13)

I must have added about 20 films manually now.. come on you bastards!

liberalul83 (2011-11-14)

I manage to put 28 of 33 missing files back, i will try to find the next 3 to make the torrent complete again, please share at least 2 weeks ! Thanks ! If you what in the future to use torrent, please share !

bunion4 (2011-11-16)

bunion4 (2011-11-16)

Adding Cinema Paradiso, not finished re checking yet but will probably make it 99.9%. Films that still need to be found:
V for vendetta 713 MB (748,513,280 bytes)
Gladiator 1.00 GB (1,083,066,368 bytes)
Lionking 699 MB (733,073,408 bytes)

All 85%+

pqlamz (2011-12-05)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNND we're on the road again! Seeding now, already got 6 guys at 99.9%. Thanks a bunch to all of you who manually resurrected this torrent in the meantime, you guys are the greatest. I should have a solid seed for about 2 months now, which will be plenty of time to push out a few full copies of this and maybe pick up a few dedicated seeders along the way!

sparty1981 (2011-12-26)

Seed PLZ

NinjaLP (2012-01-29)

PLEASE PLEASE keep this one alive! Seed it! I know there is 38 leechers right now, 10 of you better seed for at least 24 hours.

NinjaLP (2012-01-29)

Please guys SEED! Once I am done (I am at 22.5 % :( ) i will seed for an additional 24 hours. The whole point of this place is not being just a leecher but a seeder.

filmlover364 (2012-03-26)

pqlamz (2013-10-13)

Hey guys, sorry for not being around to seed this bad boy... I was thinking of doing an updated version of this collection sometime early next year if there's interest.

Abominable_JoMan (2014-01-30)

Yeah if you're still up for it, would definitely be interested. Maybe 720? Still less than 1080 like. No rush :)

cliffyboy43 (2015-04-27)

Please continue to seed this. It's a brilliant collection and I've only just discovered it.
