On to learning to take criticism. When putting things out to a large audience, there will be tons of comments on both sides of the aisle. A good portion of them will not try to offer any genuine criticism of what you wrote and try to make you feel bad. They are called trolls. So you either have to ignore all or selectively choose what you let sink it. Its hard to let the criticism in while filtering the trolls. Criticism is a thoughtful analysis of some error in your writing. Trolls just try to get a rise out of people with inflammatory statements littered with hyperbole. What you did is not criticism. Its trolling. Criticism will include some analysis like "Because you did X, it resulted in Y." Like "Because you did not watch Mulan, the article suffered because..." or "Because you didn't go see "The Princess and the Frog, your rankings are skewed because..." Trolling includes things like "you suck", lack of any substance in comments and a total lack of appreciation for capitalization of letters at the beginning of sentences. A non-troll would have stated in some manner or fashion how only seeing 15 of the 18 films or TV Shows listed above affected the facts or opinions in the article.
I hope that helps clear things up! Best of luck in becoming an educated and well-respected troll. I believe you'll need it.
