With all these lists, we can probably get a solid top 500 songs, eh? (We don't need a fancy rollout for 201-500)

CupofDreams, Beach House - Myth appears twice.

Wow, Okami. That's an inspired pick.

I will also add Trails to the list of games I hope to eventually play.

Great writeups for T&T and DR2.

Hi prosecutorgodot - sorry for the delayed response. Some comments on the above: Lim Giong - Known for his work on the films of two major Chinese directors (Jia Zhangke and Bi Gan) and a major Taiwanese director (Hou Hsiao-hsien) Alexandre Desplat - Scored multiple films for Wes Anderson (Moonrise ...

JK Simmons will always be J Jonah Jameson to me. Fantastic actor (given the right role).

Thanks for a great rollout Holden! I was on the edge of my seat for the top 10.

Good list, but this one is 2020.
It was released in September last year as a single, so I'll keep it in.

Oh, I don't remember when the singles came out, I was referring to the album, sorry if it wasn't clear.

That passage from about 4:30 - 6:30 gets me every time.

That's a great one. The guitar tone is really nice.

The two-tone whiplash issue for me also comes up in the acclaimed "Oldboy." The twist is ridiculous but feels unearned, just like with Parasite (though on a technical and thematic level I think Parasite is better). I dont know if this kind of writing is a Korean thing or something. Seems like you w...

I thought andyd was peeved about non-black-and-white-ness. I misunderstood, but I was simply going off of what was written in the original post. I totally see and appreciate the gray area. I agree that the violence felt like pedestrian shock value. The film was so much more fun as a simple heist-lik...

prosecutorgodot

I mainly loved it for the flawless filmmaking. Throughout the entire first half, every shot, every frame, every piece of dialogue, every bit of acting was perfect. Then the ridiculous twist happens and the movie falls off a cliff. I don't see why you need the film to be black and white. I guess ever...

Hello all, I found a four-part documentary about Hayao Miyazaki, 2006-2016. It aired on NHK. If interested in the thought process of this legendary filmmaker, check it out. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/3004569/ It's hard for me to believe the man is 79 years old now. He started ...

I'm a bit late I suppose, but I've been sitting on it, and now I want to say something about the best singer-songwriter album of the year so far. Don't miss out if you haven't heard it.

I also read Crime and Punishment following this poll 1-2 years ago. I was super-hyped by it being one of the great novels by one of the great authors, but I found it decent at best. The characters were pretty good, but I feel like I've seen loads better characters. The protagonist's arc was also rea...

I know a lot of people love Blackstar but I wonder if I'm going to be the only one who considers it the best Bowie album.

I have it as top Bowie album, but I thought I would be an outlier given that I am not acquainted with Bowie's vast catalogue beyond his biggest 6-7 albums.

It's a Jungle Out There - 9 I think the show is like a 6/10. It's certainly not going to blow you away. The theme song is definitely my favorite part of the show. I also like the general sense of love and friendship in the air, because everyone in the show is so goodhearted. I'm a fan of the whodun...

prosecutorgodot

It's a Jungle Out There - 9 Yes, I prefer the Monk version over the 2017 version, though I do recommend the 2017 album that it appears on, as the other tracks are really quite good (I'd recommend "Sonny Boy"). Monk is an old TV show starring the guy who plays the father in "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel...

Hey, maybe with the high ranking people will finally stop sleeping on Rina? I just discovered her earlier this year and like this album. It's interesting to see someone putting a modern twist on late 90s/early 00s pop after a decade of pop that was heavily focused on revisiting the 80s. Nice! Yeah,...

I hate that Rotten Tomatoes system, an average seems much better.

I agree that objectivity in art criticism doesn't exist. However, I do get the urge to claim objectivity once in a while for the fun of trollin'. Unfortunately, I often don't act on the urge, for fear of zillions of people jumping down my throat taking it too seriously. I've been thinking for the pa...

To be clear - Did you listen to these artist's albums before voting? Thank you. No. I'm sorry, I think there's a big misunderstanding that comes from the language barrier (and God knows I understand this problem)... but there, by such a simple and clear answer, I spit out my orange juice through my...

New Strokes is weaksauce. I quite like the new Strokes. It's not blowing me away, but it seems like a nice evolution of their music without completely losing their core appeal. The only thing that I can really fault the album for is taking some ideas from other artists, but if they're doing it well...

Both of these are pretty incredible. Thanks for sharing.

Green Day (a more unpopular choice but a personal one):

39/Smooth
Kerplunk
Dookie
Insomniac

I totally agree this is a good-great run, though I prefer Nimrod over 39/Smooth as the fourth album.

His lyrics are some of the wittiest I've heard besides Bob Dylan's and Randy Newman's, but perhaps not as snarky and cynical (which is not a bad thing).

But most of all, his songs display a man with a big heart.
