I just re-read Catch 22!
It's still really good.

…..
….Avatar?

Even spammers are outraged by the lack of Mastodon!

Oh, I forgot! The Where The Wild Things Are soundtrack. Really pretty stuff that makes me want Karen O to go solo and acoustic permanently.
Hazards of Love was an underrated treat, too…
Meanwhile, this list includes Fall Out Boy. Why do I still care about AVC's music coverage? Pitchfork isn't perfect, but they still…

Yellow House is better…still at least five brilliant tracks. Two Weeks, Cheerleader, Southern Point, I Live With You, Foreground…probably While You Wait and Ready, Able also.

All great, but what about Kiss The Ring/ It's an obvious sample, sure, but it works nicely.

And I think it's "Maroon 5"…which is a pretty good comparison.

Hey, Fergie at least has personality, even if it's awful personality. And Coldplay's first single from their last album had practically no drums, and their third single had a weird organ-stomp-clap thing going. They're trying. Meanwhile, "1901" is more Strokes rehash after 10 years of Strokes rehash, and half the…

Someone explain Phoenix to me
Especially the guys calling Veckatimest out for being boring, because WoAmPh is easily the most boring major album this year…the essence of competent predictability. The Black Eyed Peas have more personality. Coldplay takes more risks. Why do people like this album?

No Embryonic?
That plus no Fever Ray or Mastodon or Micachu, plus Blueprint 3 anywhere on this list is crushing to me.

How do you know? The voice I heard was disturbingly deep.

I like gin and tonics too…it's just personal preference. I'm a Phipps, not a purist.

Vodka Tonic
Does anyone care what the favored drinks of regular AV Club commenters are?

Seconding love for Devil & Daniel Johnston, and Sunshine. Assuming you're talking about the Danny Boyle one…that's a sweet movie.

It should have been ASM over TMWWT.
Hell, it should have been OBWAT? over TMWWT.
But I'd still rank NCFOM over all three.
(BAR just sucked.)

Basically an excellent list…
…but this is the Internet, and complaining is my default mode.
Capturing the Friedmans is a weird pick. Very boring. Way inferior to Grizzly Man, easily the top doc this decade.
Talk To Her…just bad. I don't get Almodovar.
Two Towers is your LOTR pick? It's the weakest.
AI, American…

I'm shocked how simpatico our lists are. 9 of my top 10 are in your top 50. (And just wait, y'all will come around on The Aviator.)

How has dog-torture-porn not taken off yet? That's possibly the most marketable genre in the history of movies.

Ellen Burstyn FTW

Would have included…
Gene Hackman, The Royal Tenenbaums
Leonardo DiCaprio, The Aviator
Uma Thurman, Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2
