AVClub is usually really bad at these, but this one is pretty decent. I haven’t seen Oppenheimer yet, so I can’t comment on where it ranks, but I’d easily put The Dark Knight ahead of Inception.

The voters apparently have never heard of cannibalism. There’s so many categories with multiple nominations from the same series. While they all may be deserving, it will ultimately lead to vote splitting and alter the results. Perfect example is nominating both Murray Bartlett and Nick Offerman for The Last of Us.…

It’s kind of explained in canon. Some systems were under the control of people who were loyal to Palpatine, and others were either intimidated or brought to heel by military force. Some simply didn’t have the wherewithal to do anything.

I like the Rey character and am happy they’re giving Daisy Ridley the chance to potentially redeem the character.  That said, they killed the “series”. Why would they think we’d want “the next chapter” of it? Just start fresh, almost ignoring Episode 9 to the greatest extent feasible, other than the characters and…

I’d be down for the standalone villain stories if...

“Somehow, Gandalf survived.” - Aragorn, probably.

Sorry, but I’ll always have a soft spot for the 1989 Pet Sematary. I think it’s really well shot, super creepy, and Fred Gwynne is fantastic.

I generally regret seeing all of them, but I have young kids.  That said The Jungle Book is good.

I think Shiv’s #1 thing is that she’ll always act in her own self-interest. I think she had a late realization when Kendall sat in Logan’s chair that he would suck at it (she’s definitely right to think that) and she would be permanently sidelined. Whereas with Tom, she may be able to salvage something there with the…

Beautifully said.

You are 180 degrees wrong. None of these people are idiots. Broken sure. But not stupid. This take is wrong on its face.

Loved the finale. What a show. Truly great from start to finish. Andy Greenwald summed it up quite well as “a boardroom drama where all the boardroom drama is happening in another conference room” with the competent people while we watch a slapstick comedy between these awful morons fighting over who is least equipped…

Yes, you’re right.  LFO is definitely a better summer anthem than Badfish or Santeria.  My mistake.

It’s got LFO and Len and post-Pinkerton Weezer and fucking Margaritaville and that awful Lana Del Ray song, so no, that’s clearly not the case.

You should probably get someone who actually listens to music to do a list like this.  Just awful.  No Marley?  No Sublime?  No 311?

You forgot one very, very crucial thing:

Hit many of the films I expected to see (Happiness, Requiem, Henry, Passion), but I’d argue that American History X is extremely tame compared to these, and really doesn’t belong. I’ve seen it about a dozen times (Requiem as well) and have been planning to watch it again for the first time in about 10 years.

IMO, there are only two types of people who still buy physical media:

Oh my god, this site is so bad at these lists.  Do you people actually watch the films/tv?

Imagine ranking X-Men: Apocalypse and Spider-Man 3 that high...
