You can't answer "Have any famous tests replicated?" with "out of 100 studies from the year 2008, 36% replicated" unless one of those studies was actually famous.

True, I'm not going to read through the list and decide if any of them are famous for him.

Only if you're a frequentist. A Bayesian would see evidence that studies in general fail to replicate, and thus have a better prior for famous ones than 50:50.
