Why Jude ahead?

Well, it's not done yet (we are aiming for the top 200 at least) and nothing is set in stone. What do you have in mind for controversial changes? For what it worth, we did change the criteria somewhat with acclaim (including critical, peer, industry) replacing musical impact and cultural impact ...

Top 500 would be great!

A lot of changes

Guys, I admire the effort in remaking the list. I'm still trying to process the changes. Some of the alterations are a bit controversial, in my opinion.

Great job, Tim!

Less influential than most in that range, but he beats them all in popularity, most of them in cultural impact, and holds his own or even wins acclaim. I think he beats the Doors, Everlys, Temptations, probably Holly too, could go either way against the rest.

Agreed.

Why Madonna > MJ?

Heat, The Irishman?

Not gonna bother lew about it but now I wonder if we overlooked Nic Cage for promotion, after working on his top 10 performances. He did a lot of acclaimed stuff since 2018, think Mandy, Pig, Dream Scenario, Longlegs. Not sure about the exact spot but I'd say he's greater than Tony Curtis. Maybe ...

Agreed.

RIP Robert Duvall

I think these lists need to make sense in relation to the lists we made by year.

Great topic, Tim!

About Kidman's list, curiously "Rabbit Hole (2010)" and "Moulin Rouge! (2001)" are not on the performance lists by year. I believe we forgot.

I'd like to know what you find most striking or weird when you see these stats.
