Gee, this has been recently updated, and I'm still not on the list yet...
Shalom, y'all!

Sorry, I had to make the distinction "famous" people, which lessens your qualification to make the list. Perhaps if I could do a non-media favorite people list, or rather a "favorite people on listology" list...
Wait a minute... Am I not famous?
Darn it. Why did everybody wait till now to tell me?
Shalom, y'all!

Well, if it's any consolation, some time ago I had to double-check that you weren't The Lester Bangs ("he writes like a professional rock critic, but I thought he died?").
Rumours of my demise have been... aw, forget it.
Thanks for the compliment. Have you checked out my in-progress top 100 rock albums yet? Your beloved Trinity Sessions have made a much-deserved appearance, and I'd love to hear your comments on my write-up for the album.
Shalom, y'all!

My dear boy, you are more than famous, you are a living web legend, please see my lists for details
"The only bad press is no press." Thanks for recognizing me.
Shalom, y'all!

I May be wrong, but what does this list have to do with Movies? Thom Yorke is no actor, and The Rock is a physical object of unable to achieve motion yet alone the ability act?
Yeah, I strayed from keeping the list specifically about favorite actors and made it a more general "favorite people" list. Also, I removed The Rock, not so much from outside pressure, but because although I found his act amusing awhile ago, I find it kind of annoying now. Times change. Also, this list isn't specifically movie-related, but either is whether lbangs is famous or not...but it's fun.
Thank God someone else listed "Jesus' Son". Great movie. If you like Sean Penn, see "Dead Man Walking" and "Sweet and Lowdown".
I've seen both. Penn is amazing, probably my favorite male actor. I recently saw "i am sam" and added it to my favorite movies list.
