Call me crazy, but I do not see The Shawshank Redemption, The Lord of the Rings or Good Will Hunting.

Edit: ... or A Beautiful Mind, or American Beauty, or The Green Mile, or Sixteen Candles, or Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

I'm sorry I posted this list now. It blows chunks.

 

No, but they did manage to get Robocop in there. :

 

Dead or alive, you're coming with me!

 

No Once Upon A Time In The West? Totally ridiculous.

That should be right in the NY Times wheelhouse too, considering that's a favorite of pretentious fucks like me.

But then again, I guess something had to go so fucking Clueless could make the list.

 

I hate superlative lists. They're a lazy way to fill a news hole. Or was this a Web exclusive? Either way, there had to be a more constructive way to spend their resources.

Note: I'm currently compiling "The 100 worst lists ever."

 

It's no list unless You're A Big Boy Now is on it.
