This an excellent site. Like every list ever, it's unlikely that you'll agree with order or even content. However, it's an entertaining way to read interesting things about interesting new subjects. Here are a few interesting lists:

Top 10 Most Bizarre Videos

Top 10 Really Great American Patents

Top 10 Evil Serial Killers

Top 10 Amazing Movie Endings

Top 10 Incredibly Early Film Firsts

These are just a few, there are fucking hundreds and some of them are really excellent.

But, the most important question is will there be a list about lists?

And will there ever be an instance where Anderson doesn't use that comma?

I put Middle Ground, which was my no. 1 until the finale, as no 2., tati.

I dig your list, Anderson.

That website reads like it was written by a 7th grader.

Any list of top Beatles songs that doesn't have A Day in the Life in first position is factually wrong.

IF you just go to read lists that are the best "whatever" of some kind or music or movies, you're aren't going to find anything valuable.

It's more the historical and technology lists that are interesting.

From the TOP 20 BEST MOVIE ENDINGS list:

Quote:
13. Batman begins

I loved Batman Begins - I think it is the best of the movies, and this last scene was outright awesome! Just as the great movie comes to a close, we are given a quick taste of what is to come: The Joker! One of the most famous enemies of Batman. I don’t know about you - but I can’t wait!
In the site header banner, it says "lists with a twist." Is the twist that they're all compiled by Corky from Life goes On?

The show peaked in Season 4 for me, but I can appreciate the entire run.

Season 4 is the best from a quality perspective, but I was more personally invested in 3 and 5. I need to watch 5 straight through again, as well as the series as a whole, to decide en finale though.

Happy Gilmore, Napoleon Dynamite, and Ace Ventura are higher on this list than Shaun of the Dead. And there is no Mel Brooks to speak of, and Blazing Saddles most definitely should be near the very top. And Animal House at the top? Oh fucking please.

The site is plenty interesting, but fuck the movie lists. Fuck them hard.

Seconded. Maybe it's just me, but old recordings in general give me the creeps.
