I'm sorry, I can't stop laughing at that. She says out of all of the works of art created in the past 30 years, including painted, sculpted, drawn, filmed, animated, musical, and interactive,

It's still a hell of a lot better than most of the shit that passes for 'art' these days.  I don't even take that word seriously any more. :) (roll)

I wouldn't really be that irked if she was just citing it for its technical achievements, but she clearly thinks the film has some sort of artistic value beyond "Look how much our green screens cost!" She was also picking an option to represent the entirety of contemporary art, and as stated before, the selection was not limited to what you would see in a gallery.
