There are not different levels of favorites.
The ones you like the most are your favorites. If you like one more than another then they cannot both be favorites.
That's how it works.

Basically you just gave a list of movies you "like a lot"

when someone says "oooh its one of my favorites" i don't assume it's equal the best movie/food/song ever
i guess if you want to be anal you might be right but in common speak

lately been counting 4/10 (decent - very decent) in my scale as years favorites and levels of favoritness rises as the scale goes

when people post favorite movies of a year fe i don't assume they are all equal.

Lion king

yeah i disagree with this, your favorites are a group that you enjoy more than the rest, like when people do a top 10 list those are their favorites but as every movie is different it would be unlikely that would enjoy them all to the same extent

favourite has to be at the same level, favourites can be a group above the rest

Yes, it's a group above the rest.
That's why I said, if you like one more than the other, they can't both be favorites.

Which is why a list of 300 "favorites" makes no sense.
That would mean he doesn't like any of those 300 more than any of the others on the list.

i still think you can favour things on different levels, tier of 2nd 3rd 4th favorites are still favorite to me
if the topic was called absolutely favorite movies then they should be (pretty much) on same level but no need to be so anal about it either

aliens2, enders game, fight club, clockwork orange, funny games, american psycho, boondock saints, pacific rim, human centipede1, feast1, the raid1, deep blue sea

some movies i've watched a hundreds times n that i would watch them a hundreds times again

Sorry but I think you're wrong, favorite means the one you prefer to others. If you take the plural of this its the ones you prefer, which means you have to prefer them over others but not necessarily the same as each other.

People understand that you rarely rate two things exactly the same so if you look at multiple examples they become the ones you prefer over others, not the ones you prefer as much as your favorite.
