RIP - Robert Redford

Pierce Brosnan

I only know the name Pierce Brosnan because of the Simpsons episode in which he was one of the AI voices for the Ultrahouse 3000.

Also, I only know the name Bette Davis because of the Kim Carnes song.

Also, I only know the name Ingrid Bergman because of the song by Billy Bragg & Wilco on the album Mermaid Avenue.

Also, I only know the name Sigourney Weaver because of a Jeff Foxworthy routine from the 1990s.

Also, whenever I hear the name Robert Downey Jr, I immediately think of Harry Connick Jr.  I know they're not the same person, but still.

My brother would say, "You mean the Chipmunks song!" (The album Chipmunk Rock kicked off with that song.)

I say we take off and nuke the entire thread from orbit.  It is the only way to be sure...

It's also disheartening how few women are on this list, including none for the 1990s and 2000s.

Looking over the list again, I was surprised/disappointed not to see Julia Roberts anywhere. I vote to kick Kevin Spacey off the list and replace him with her.
