Yeah, that's the only reason I included them on my list.

Updated the list so far in the first post. Just one small problem: it's backwards, so it goes from the bottom to the top.
:)

Knew if Costner is on, Gibson will be; glad to get him out of the way at least.

I don't understand the hate against Costner. DWW was good and Open Range a masterpiece

Haha, the list is screwed already, with people like Tony Scott and the Wachowskis in front of him. You could as well cancel it now.

Pretty much.
I am already surprised.
Would have loved to see him higher, but I'm just happy he placed.
good that mf didnt go higher
Glad to see he made it.
Around 90 places too low.
That's a good one.
Ehhhh... Way too low.
Placement is about perfect.
At least his brother should be 80-something places higher...
Good placement.
Nice to see him, but should be way higher.
Wow, first surprise on someone placed lower than I expected.
He should be higher.
Could stand to be a bit higher, but overall pretty great.
Hoped for higher, but I'll take it.
I was hoping for a top 50 placement, but I'll begrudgingly take this.
To Low!!
Much deserved, though.
And very deserved too, if not higher.
Should be higher.
Would love to see him 40 spots higher
Should be maybe a bit higher, but glad to see him.
Fair placing
Probably a bit too high
Thats low.
About right.
Should be higher, but pretty good.
Not bad, considering.
should be higher for LAC alone

The travesty's are starting to pile on at an alarming rate, Payne's ridiculous placement included.

He'll never top Bloody Sunday, but thats good enough to guarantee him a place in my mind.
