- For those of you with multiple reviews for one film, try your luck and post them here.
- If you don't have multiples, just post one you think deserves an airing.
- The next round starts from next Wednesday at 9 a.m. F.W.F.R. time.

Much appreciated, C.L. I was able to open the window very carefully as a result and see that it was Citizen Kane, which I haven't seen. Otherwise, I would have opened it casually and seen the reviews before I could stop myself. |

The quote makes it obvious to any film-literate person that it's CITIZEN KANE.
I don't pander to those few odd people who choose not to see a film made 70 years ago which is regularly voted the greatest film of all time by film critics.

This point is redundant, since it will obviously not be obvious to people who have not seen the film.

This point sums you up very well, because it shows how illogical, inconsiderate and unwilling to apologise you are.
Seeing great films is not an emergency. It is perfectly reasonable to spread them out over one's lifetime, especially those that one was not alive to see when they were released. Further to that point, anyone might use this site, including those only just old enough to start enjoying such films. They could not possibly see them all at once.
Giving spoiler warnings is not pandering. It is well established as the proper thing to do.
When you have been shown to be in the wrong, just be a grown-up, admit it and apologise. For once in your life.
Thankfully, unlike you, ChocolateLady is a nice and normal person. |

Wow, siding with P.K.M.N. You really have amazing judgment.
You know perfectly well that I was right here. Even if you think that I should for some reason have seen all good films by now rather than over the next fifty to sixty years (which is stupid), you cannot deny that there is an age by which you cannot have expected someone to see them all but at which they could still be reading film websites. |

Capitalise Europe and spell euthanasia correctly and I'll vote for that one, even though the youth in Asia pun has been done before. |
