Pretty amazing. I just assumed its rating would fall after a few days, but it hasn't. That means its beating The Shawshank Redemption, The Godfather, Pulp Fiction.  :o

Well that's a little bit overrated. So was the previous best, Shawshank Redemption.
Both very good movies, but the best of all time ...  :-\

It's all subjective of course but e.g. for a Tim Robbins Movie I would pick Jacob's Ladder over SSR. Some examples of movies I would rate higher than SSR or Dark Knight:

Stalker http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079944/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079944/)
Miller's Crossing http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100150/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100150/)
Aguirre, Wrath of God http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068182/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068182/)
The White Sound http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0276617/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0276617/)
Paris, Texas http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087884/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087884/)

I am fine with Shawshank, Dark Knight or Forrest Gump being ranked as the highest movies ever.

It's becuase the Dark Knight is recent and when many real good movies that are arguably better than the Drak Knight came out there wasn't this huge internet and site.

Movies like God Father  (1 or 2) or Schindler's List are much better IMO.

However, i would give the Dark Knight the best superhero movie of all time.
