IMDb Top 250 in 2009

fI love watching the IMDb Top 250 list, from reading about people to working through the titles to seeing what new will crop up on the list. Although I'm thankful this year there was no huge brouhaha like the 2008 The Dark Knight fiasco so we can watch it as a great way to look at the films that were a combination of acclaimed and loved.

As of Dec 31, 2009 there were 6 titles from 2009 that graced the top 250. This is less that last year, where there were 9 titles on the top 250. As the 250 list is based on votes, it changes over time I've also added the entire Top 250 for reference.
