POPSTop 10 Bizarre Coffins Yes I have been addicted to lists since I was given my first copy of the Book of Lists.... and last month, I bought the newest version of the Book of Lists which has not been written and published in 15 years... This one caught my Discerning Reaper Eye Socket!

POPSParanormal Thrillers - Got to Love 'Em Good to see there is a website that is devoted to mysteries but takes into the genre the Occult and Paranormal as well. I am happy because I hope to be listed here myself one day... Humility was never a strong trait in my family...

POPSThe Web's Greatest Links Page Part I (Websites) I saw someone just post the name and the url but none of the sites that it links to, I thought I could do it a little more justice. These are not even a miniscule accounting of the Websites that this page links to. Truly something for everybody. The second part is web blogs...

POPSTop 21 Ways To Know That You Are A Cliched Hero OK, this is a little dry but I did find it stereotypical enough to clip... For example what do Leia Organa, Clark Kent, Arthur Pendragon, and pro wrestler Ric Flair all have in common??? All raised by people who are not their real family. No offense to Ric but that I could think of him as a real world example!

POPS8 Fictional Characters Who Died Too Early Well, I can not say I agree with the list all in total (Segal was not a big loss and a Video Game Character???) but overall, a well-reasoned list. A few key actors or roles I would have considered: Powers Booth in Red Dawn Orrie Main (Patrick Swazey) in North & South: Book III Laurence J. Fishbun in Deep Blue Christian Slater (no, not David Arquette) in 3000 Miles to Graceland Drew Barrymore in Scream Joker (jack Nicholson) not too early in the movie but in the series! George C. Scott in Taps. Morgan Freeman in The Sum of All Fears... Just a few off the top of my head and I am sure we all can think of others but this is a wonderful site for lists and this one (other than foe the inclusion of a video game) is a good list.

POPSTOP 20 WORST CASTING DECISIONS EVER Part IV (#1!!!!)
Oh, Keanu... At least Mike Myers worked past Wayne's World... and others know when they are in over their head. I love ya Kid but you really are missing that je ne sais quoit, that invisible element called charisma and presence. Hell, the PHONE BOOTH had more presence in the Bill and Ted Series! Do what every other bad actor did when he found he was over his head: play non-speaking roles or Native Americans! Hell, Jack Palance learned to act playing heavies and Indians and by his 70s he had his Oscar! Well, at least your debut was better than Costner and I am not talking about "Flyers" the Cycling movie. Costner began his career as the stiff (literally) in the coffin that brought old friends back together for his funeral in The Big Chill. He had over 4 minutes of footage taken with him in the casket and the editors dropped it to just over 4 seconds for release. You at least had a starring role and look, Ashton Kutcher is in your footsteps!

POPSTOP 20 WORST CASTING DECISIONS EVER Part III (#6 - #2) Hepburn - The Queen Katherine Sank. Costner - The Prince of Thieves Stank (Don't get me started on Costner! WE have "issues!") Hopkins - The Knight switched sides from white to black and failed the Gambit... Wayne - The Duke as the Scourge of God? Just wait a damn minute! Now I am dying to see what they rated as the worst!

POPSTOP 20 WORST CASTING DECISIONS EVER Part I (#20 - #11) Not much to argue with the list maker in Part I. Vaughn ALMOST pulls off Bates but no one will ever be Perkins and that was sheer movie magic and acting perfection. "We all go a little crazy... sometimes." Still sends chills up my spine!
