What, no Exorcist II: The Heretic? 

The only story point of Prometheus I found off-putting was the taking off of the helmets, which did seem ridiculous/unbelievable.  As for the petting of the snake, that could be chalked up to the same sort of arrogance that had a similar effect (in real life) in the documentary Grizzly Man.  Definitely think…

Roxy Music (Stranded) - "Street Life"/"Just Like You"

David Bowie (Low) - "Speed Of Life"/"Breaking Glass"
Wire (154) - "I Should Have Known Better"/"Two People In A Room"
Pere Ubu (Dub Housing) - "Navvy"/"On The Surface"

I'm continually mystified that anyone can defend Alien 3, but then, there are those who defend the Star Wars prequels, and I suppose they're cut from the same cloth.

Do The Right Thing certainly has a dedicated cult audience, so it could be called a "cult classic", but in terms of being an actual good movie? Nah. Too amateurish, and too biased.

Bugs
Another symbol of MTV's contempt for its audience: The company (via their sister station VH1) were the first entertainment cable channel to employ those infernal, infinitely annoying "watermarks" (aka "bugs"), the little logos that appear in the corner of your TV screen, eventually employed by nearly every cable…

And Here's A Glaring Omission:
Wire's "Read And Burn" EPs are not only strong, but among the strongest work in this legendary band's career.

It is set in 1979, though there's a guy in one of the early scenes wearing a Walkman, which wasn't on the market until 1982.

I may be wrong, but the film that seems to have really kicked off the current lens-flare craze was not an Abrams movie, but P.T. Anderson's Punch Drunk Love.

A few of the great ones
Beatles "(All You Need Is) Love" in the finale of The Prisoner.

South Park
South Park should have stopped after season 2 or maybe 3.

I wouldn't say Talking Heads should have ever quit, per se, but their career would be more consistent if they could somehow excise "Little Creatures" from their catalog.

Except for a couple of oddball exceptions, like "Pearls Before Swine", the entire comics page, as a unit, should have been retired ages ago. It's moribund. Does anybody really read Snuffy Smith or Dick Tracy in the 21st century?

Not against the idea of Bowie stopping after Scary Monsters, as long as he started back at the 1994 LP Outside.

It think it's a testament to the quality of The Simpsons that there's no real consensus on a quality drop-off point. The show has had awful episodes throughout its epic run (the early Krusty telethon episode, involving lots of bad gags with guest celebs, comes to mind, as does the shark-jumping episode in which Homer…

X-Files should have ended with the episode where Mulder reunited with his sister, with one additional installment: the final wrap-up movie. Also, a lot of the excess, non-sequitir, red-herring, pulled-out-of-Chris-Carter's-ass mythology elements that eventually piled up should have been cut (e.g. supersoldiers).

I'm pretty sure what Russell says to the computer in that early scene is "Chicka Chicka Bop-a Chicka Chick Chicka, Chicka Chicka Bop-a-Bop-a-Bop".

Except for Season 6, of course.

I worked in a record store in the 1980's. Some skinhead kid came in and special-ordered a bunch of Skrewdriver records. I had heard their name bandied about before, but wasn't familiar with their "work". When I got the records in, with all their racist/Anti-Semitic titles and heroic images of Klansmen, I sent them…
