Template error upgrading to underscore 1.7

When upgrading my web app from underscore 1.6 to 1.7, I receive the following error "list is not defined". When using underscore 1.6 it works perfectly. Any ideas?

//acquire the list template
$.get('tpl/listTpl.html', function(templates) {

//run underscore js on the list template and pass in the full collection of models
var template = _.template(templates, {list:app.collections.list.models});

//load the underscore template into the DOM
that.$el.html(template);

});

From the 1.7.0 changelog:

Underscore templates no longer accept an initial data object. _.template always returns a function now.

You will need to change your code to the following:

$.get('tpl/listTpl.html', function(templates) {
  var template = _.template(templates);
  var result = template({list:app.collections.list.models});
  that.$el.html(result);
});
