It's not just about the music

Tell me about it! Those philistines also left off the Pauly Shore classic Bio-Dome (1996). Their list certainly is a travesty. What's more, films that changed cinema as we know it, like Michelangelo Antonioni's L'Avventura (1960) and Robert Bresson's Au Hasard Balthazar (1966) (in addition to those you mention), are completely ignored in favor of a hefty amount of Hollywood filler. But I'm getting ahead of myself. After all, where would a great films list be if it didn't cater to people who only speak English and can't read subtitles? Anyway, I've come across one or two better lists of great films in my day.

Still, not everything in the world is awry. At least not yet. Why, just recently that stalwart of musical ingenuity and creativity, Ricky Martin, was FINALLY honored for his efforts to end slavery:

On a sadder note, it may be years before Enrique Eglesias finally gets that Nobel Prize in Physics he so completely deserves.
