Hmm, well, it's interesting that the level of critical analysis as summarized isn't much higher, if at all, than the gibberish from the 20-something slackers who seem to generate most of these best/worst movie lists. Maybe the full article will be more informative.
Seems a waste of time to denigrate THE BLOB, which never pretended to be any more than a low-budget drive-in movie. On the other hand, for the "best" list, I wonder if any of these guys suggested any of the pioneering movies, notably METROPOLIS or THINGS TO COME.

Even the New Scientists are probably too young for those to have made an impression.
