  1. There were several stalled resort projects in Vegas, including the Fontainebleau/The Drew, which was topped out, but the exterior glass was never fully installed. It’s an eyesore that is going to need billions to finish, several investors tried and gave up, including Carl Icahn. Current ownership thinks it’s going to open next year, but that’s what the last owners said before COVID added even more delays.

  2. It’s green to differentiate it from the real world. And to hint at the underlying green code always running in the background.

  3.  @TheBerkeleyBeauty  most political events seem to use songs without permission, forcing artists to send cease and desist letters... I think Neil Young tried to sue Trump for constantly using "Rocking in the Free World" (another song with really depressing lyrics).

  4. “Where the Streets Have No Name” was Edge’s idea for a big song to play live. It took so long to record that they were supposed to deliver the master tapes to the press plant that morning and worked all night to finalize the song. Edge wanted to add in backup vocals, but he was overruled since they were literally out of time by that point.

  5. I’d switch “Breathe” for “Smack My Bitch Up” since it’s a first person view of someone’s crazy night out, getting drunk, using drugs, harassing women, attacking people, and then bringing a woman home for one night stand. (Plus the huge twist at the end when you get a look at a mirror.)

  6. No man, the MOST powerful car: The new Bluesmobile. It was powered up by god himself to help Jake and Elwood fulfill their mission… as soon as it was over, the car fell to pieces, never to be used again.

  7. I’d say the hardest languages are those that no longer have living native speakers, and no audio examples available, like Ancient proto-languages, because we’ve lost all references to what the language sounds like.

  8. Django Reinhardt is actually astounding because he could only use first two fingers on his left hand, the other two were badly damaged in a fire and he lost the use of them.

  9. In the comics after Wolverine died (he was encased in a shell of Adamantium and suffocated to death), Laura took up the Wolverine name and eventually met Old Man Logan from a parallel Earth, kind of like at the end of this movie.)

  10.  @MrBoss-re6lp  I did vote, but I’m in a usually blue state so it wasn’t a factor in the electoral college. I do feel we need younger people running in 2024, but sadly it might be the same 2 old men as last time, but now they’re 4 years older.

  11. I’d pay good money to see Don McLean sing “The Saga Begins.” 😂 My wife and I were in Copenhagen about 5 years ago, we saw a Segway tour pass by and we both started quietly singing, “They see me roll on my Segway…” 😛

  12. George Carlin could probably come up with 100 of these...

  13. Junior Mints like most candy is sold by WEIGHT, not volume… she basically sued them for using a box that was too big for the candy it held as listed on the label.

  14. You missed all of the Marty Chonks missions in GTA 3... (which again was luring people into a meat grinder... but to turn them into dog food).

  15. “Zombie” was written because that bombing resulted in the deaths of 2 little boys, one suffered for days in hospital before dying in his father’s arms. They were out buying cards for Mother’s Day. That’s why the in video parts where Delores has 2 little boys with her under the cross. She couldn’t bear to hear that children were caught up in something so horrible.

  16. If you haven’t done it, 10 unbeatable NHL records please!

  17. The ONLY horror movie that scared the hell of me at the end was the 1970s Invasion of the Body Snatchers with Donald Sutherland. "Matthew?" horrid screech and point

  18. That bunt didn’t end the perfect game, the 2nd baseman mishandling the ball ended the perfect game.

  19. Rory Kennedy’s “Last Days in Vietnam” is excellent and really showed the chaos all sides had to deal with as Saigon fell.

  20. Deadpool also decided the best way to kill the Marvel Universe was to go after the WRITERS.

  21. I wonder how many people were “snapped” and then returned 5 years later, only to “blip” into something dangerous that ends up killing them anyway. (Like they returned to their old home, and the new owner shoots them thinking they broke in.)

  22. The spoken voice was actually Michael, the singing voice was an impersonator. The record label was cool with him talking, but not cool with him singing. (Recording contracts can be weird.)

  23. In later Star Wars expanded universe works, Jar Jar is found on a random planet trying his best to be a children’s entertainer, because the kids like him. Adults remember he was the one that gave emergency powers to the future Emperor and hate him for it... ouch.

  24.  @rightlyso8507  i think each nation has their own rates. Denmark is the highest but it covers the costs a huge social services system for all citizens (and that is why they didn’t take in a lot of the migrants that flooded Europe as too many new people at once would have caused that system to collapse.) Bernie Sanders loves what Denmark is doing, but scaling it up to a nation our size is likely impossible.

  25. Our UPS guy in NYC would sometimes wear shorts in winter, but he had the heat in the truck cranked all the way up. It was motivation to get his route done quickly!

  26. Honorable mention: the poor boom mic operator that gets hit by Dark Helmet’s laser sword ring. Helmet: “Uhhh… he did it.” Lonestarr: “WHAT?!!”

  27. The Purge totally rips off Star Trek’s episode “Return of the Archons” minus the “everyone is mind controlled by a supercomputer” parts.

  28. I’d throw in the burning of the library a Alexandria, and the sack of Baghdad by the Mongols which saw another library of ancient knowledge get lost to history.

  29. The Note 7 wasn’t faulty batteries, it was poor design. The original Note 7 design made it far enough along that they made battery packs for them, but then someone wanted the phones to be smaller. So they shaved space out of the battery compartment without redesigning the battery pack. While charging or running power hungry tasks the battery pack heats up and expands. Without the extra space the hot battery would experience thermal runaway and 💥

  30. There’s a video somewhere on YouTube where people actually tried all of the crazy toppings from at least the first season. Results were... mixed at best.

  31. I think the Fat Boy is too, since this year’s motorcycle was the Ducati

  32. All of Trump's idols. You were warned America and you did not listen. Don't come crying when 4 years passes and he won't leave this time!

  33. Infamous: Second Son if you play as “evil” there’s a lot of the plot that weirdly plays out the same as “good” and the ending has Delsin killing the tribe instead of saving them, just because the leader calls him out for being evil.

  34. I would have put Andy Wood from Mother Love Bone in as an honorable mention, “Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns” is a masterpiece.

  35. If Decca did pick up the Beatles, they never would have met George Martin (he signed them to EMI after Decca rejected them, thanks to Brian Epstein), so they would have sounded different, as George Martin taught them so much about recording and about music theory, which they had no training in. I do agree, Elvis was not a good fit for that time period at the Grand Ole’ Opry… I’m not sure if he’d fit there in any time period!

  36. “Stewie, head for Meg’s butt!” “… HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?!”

  37. AI is very underrated.

  38. A few a hundred guys in one city does not mean ALL of Ukraine is Nazis!

  39. I think Leonard Cohen wrote like dozens of verses to that song, and couldn’t stop. Someone finally made him sit down and pick the ones he ultimately recorded.

  40. The best episodes are the ones where all the storylines affect each other.

  41. Lana Del Rey is on the middle of one of these right now... maybe try not to talk about political stuff for a while if you’re a celebrity.

  42. You can try to explore it... if you’re wearing arrow proof full body armor.

  43. Honorable Mention: “Elevation” by U2, the “Tomb Raider Mix” is so much better, U2 only plays THAT version on tour!

  44. Then Stewie tries to apologize to Brian, who’s having none of it. “You shot me and set me on fire.”

  45. I’d say it’s not a twist ending, but an ambiguous ending.

  46. One does not simply shove Bully McGuire off this list.

  47. What sucks is some workers tried to sue over health issues from exposure to toxic burn pits, but the courts ruled against them because of the secrecy.

  48. #9 during rehearsal Brian Cranston got the idea to take a hit off of the nitrous as an ad lib and it broke the cast and crew. #5 because Larry David took the finale, all the other writers that worked on the last season got “The Puerto Rican Day” and it may have been a case of too many cooks. #1 While she’s a great actress, Heidi Swedberg struggled with comic timing. The cast started to hate working with her, so in a during a table read for a later episode Julia Louise Dreyfus said “Why don’t we just kill her.”

  49. “Who Let the Dogs Out” is iconic to me because it was the song the Mets used during the playoffs that year all the way to the World Series against the Yankees.

  50. Rockstar Games must have an awesome film library.
