I think I gave GHc. about seven votes, so he actually made a profit out of it.

Actually, I have to confess that I have not seen Return of the Secaucus 7. I only know about it because of an interest in Sayles, who wrote perhaps the best screenplay of all time for Lone Star.

I read Angelas Ashes a few months ago (I Know i'm ten years behind but there SO many books out there), you wouldn't want to be in a sad or depressed state before taking it up...

I was wondering who did that. Thanks, Salopian. Some of the ones you voted for are some of my favorites I've written.

I wonder, though, if it's a good idea to include spoiler reviews for such a fresh movie in FYCTH. If your review becomes popular [that is, if enough people have already seen the movie and like your take], it'll get on the Best Reviews page and then PRESTIGE virgins may stumble upon it. Just a nibble for thought.


Hmmm. You're right. I won't do it anymore. I also hate spoilers for any movie, especially ones that are out in theaters. I don't mind if people purposefully avoid my FYC during a week in which I have spoilers because I would avoid others' FYC under the same circumstances. Although it was very considerate of Salopian to vote for other reviews of mine, I would not think of him as inconsiderate if he didn't.

Agreed, Sally acted honorably. As usual.

Although I would never try to impose my personal inclinations upon another fwiffer's enjoyment of this site in whichever way happens to blow hisser skirt up, I nevertheless think you have made a wise choice.

I'll always remember a post of benj's a while ago, before there were MERPs and he was still the only fwfr editor. He was sitting in a movie theater waiting for the feature to start, and judging reviews on his laptop to kill time. Then came a fwfr submission that spoiled the very movie he was waiting to see!!!

Again, regards for your consideration of other fwiffers.

THE BIG CHILL is basically a SECAUCUS 7 wannabe with higher production values.

Hey, don't feel too bad - I'm just now finishing Harry Potter 4 (my son insisted because we bought the DVD of the movie).

As for Angela's Ashes - truth is, it is best to read that when you ARE depressed. Makes you realize how good your life is.

(And yes, I've voted everyone till here.)

Well, I liked my Blair Witch review (Wood-stalk) but the mighty Benji just ruled that it's too generic. Sadly, it had 14 votes when it was shot down

So in it's place for the rest of the round, I submit:
The Nymph Sense(Lady in the Water).
