better when the stripper is crying so
cast your vote to let us know which door
we should go with that one you know how
we say that variety is the spice of life
you don’t well it is anyway we thought
we’d keep some variety in our videos
with top ten landmarks in various
locations around the world we’ve already
done top 10 London landmarks and top 10
u.s. landmarks so let us know which ones
you want to see next and as always be
sure to head over to watchmojo.com slash
suggest to let us know what you think
and while you’re there make sure to vote
on any other topics you may have an
opinion on we know how much you guys
love the FAQ section where Dan joins me
and we answer those same questions we
get over and over and over yes anyway
let’s do that let’s begin with Neri
Necker who says seems like psycho is
dominating the list now
top 10 scream queens dramatic death
movies and now shower scenes smiley face
midpoint believe it or not we try we
really try to offer variety in our
videos which is why we’ll throw in top
10 tourist attractions or top 10
vegetables to mix it up that’s also why
we’ve added things like the suggestion
tool to ensure we’re casting as wide a
net as possible when researching entries
for the lists especially as our audience
grows it’s important for us to publish a
wide variety of topics with entries that
are as diverse as possible but as we
create lists and countdowns we have to
balance that with ensuring that the
lists are also accurate what also tends
to happen is that our audience suggests
a lot of similar ideas so then the
entries they suggest become quite
homogeneous this is why we have an
ever-growing army of writers and
researchers to ensure that things don’t
get stale and remain varied but we also
have to balance avoiding too much
repetition in our lists with ensuring
that those who deserve the credit get
their due after all excluding psycho
from top ten scream queens dramatic
movie deaths or shower scenes would be
viewed as a glaring omission to someone
who’s seen just one or the other
especially when you consider the Daedric
overlords comment let’s be honest we all
came here for psycho and that was up
voted 73 times but to the Mojo holics
who watched every single one of our
videos
sure it might seem like we’re running
out of a
trust me we have this debate all the
time but we make top-10 lists that’s
what we do so it’s more important for us
to be accurate in our lists than to
worry about repeating an entry every
once in a while and last but not least
you might be noticing this because we
now publish more lists we used to
publish only one per day but now it’s
three so a while ago it was ten entries
per day and now it’s over 30 in other
words the chances you see an entry
repeated are simply mathematically
higher when the audience is increasingly
determining what to produce and what to
include as entries okay now that that’s
settled
Michell friend asks here’s my good
question for next week why is it that I
get the your suggestion is now a video
email a couple of days or even a week
after the actual video has been
published it just seems a little odd
fortunately this one’s got a short and
sweet answer it’s done manually and the
suggestion is popular and we want to
ensure that we’re linking the right
videos to the right suggestions and that
takes time otherwise the system would be
rather hit or miss so to sum up it’s
basically because we’re slow me anyway
let’s finish up with reading a few of
the comments of the week the first one
goes to Johann Diaz who commented on our
top 10 philosophers video haven’t
watched it yet please tell me 2pac was
on this list next up we have Gregg Ganga
biblical who commented on top 10
influential figures in science and
technology
Albert smoked weed right I’ve heard that
before that explains i’m Stein’s a hare
I got another one here okay I’m sorry
that’s so Wien Douglas commented on top
10 old wise men in movies ha marvel do
not classify mutants as human beings
that way they get tax breaks on the toys
okay so if we understand correctly
that’s in reference to the fact that you
get a tax break on non-human toys
because humanoid toys are taxed at 12%
and nonhumanoid toys are taxed at
six-point-eight she get all that and
finally atheist orphan had a witty
retort to these ions so ho when he
commented on our video about top 10
production nightmares the Zion so host
said I hate the doors so overrated which
had nothing to do with anything anyway
then atheist orphan said me too that’s
why I always use windows when entering
or leaving now BAM nailed it anyway guys
