Thanks for all the replies.

I'm just dipping my toes into this pond, so it may take me a while to become fully acclimated.

Dip away, but just so you know, the water's really fine and we all enjoy a new splasher to join in the fun!

Hi WAldenIV - I'm sure CL didn't mean that to be as rude as it sounds

Hope to see you here again - and hope you appreciated my votes for your lovely reviews to add to your growing collection

Hm... perhaps I should have said something like:

"... and we love having new people splashing around the pool."

... or not.

Oh, I think he gets it.

(I hope. I really was trying to be welcoming, not rude.)

I know and I'm sure he knows. You're the epitome of welcome I was just joking!

Don't get hung up on the word "review" This is more like the four word film joke/pun site.

I usually write more than one review per movie because there are some many jokes to make.

...

Film reviewers don't write multiple reviews of the same movie unless, perhaps, they write for multiple publications.



Roger Ebert's first review of The Graduate for the Chicago Sun-Times

Roger Ebert's second review of The Graduate for the Chicago Sun-Times

My first review of The Day After Tomorrow

My second review of The Day After Tomorrow

If I had a smilie of a guy nonchalantly whistling, I'd use it here.

Well, to be fair, Ebert did wait 30 years between reviews.

Sorry, friend - I've just turned 51 years old, so I don't have that type of time.

Anyway, many people submit more than one review for a film simply because they're not sure which ones will be accepted and which ones won't. Sometimes more than one is okayed and sometimes none of them are.

Ah , to have a favorite gay, cowboy movie. Not many outside this site can claim that.

For another perspective on the greatest gay cowboy flick ever put to film...

Although... anything with John wayne usually puts me in mind of guy-on-guy action. The duke definitely swung many ways... I'm sure somebody here knew him in some capacity, and will accordingly set me straight
