"Returning FWFR Old-Timer"

I spent a little while tonight disowning a few reviews toward my ultimate aim of having reviewed exactly the same amount of films as my review total - that is, having only one review per film, which reflects my accolade-centric approach to this site.

If you disagree with my disowning process, I have no interest in hearing your opinion of it. They're my reviews, and I can do what I like with them. What I like in this occasion is keeping them as part of the site, under Alan Smithee's name.

This brings me to the point of this post: I was able to nudge our beloved friend Alan Smithee up into the rarefied air of Movie Oracle - congratulations Alan (hence, many of us!) on achieving your second Millennium and your halo!

For the stubborn, I reiterate - if you don't like Smithee, kindly ignore this thread...

So much for Koli's polite and reasonable request here then.

If you disagree with my posting here, I have no interest in hearing your opinion of it.

Just gave you a traditional "congrats" vote smattering Al; somehow I don't suppose you'll be reciprocating And damn it, I'm pretty sure i wrote two of your top 10 voted reviews before you did Oh, yeah, point taken

I have to admit that I have a number of times nearly disowned all my reviews and disappeared from the site, mainly due to a few members of the site. I have not as yet done it, but I also consider disowning all my reviews that fail to get any votes.

I am not canvassing for votes here merely saying that I admire the quality of a person who is so determined to achieve a target as to get rid of a whole pile of hard work to get there!

Alan is a fact of life and there is no point at all in getting upset about it, just get over it!

Since everything we do here at FWFR is by way of the wonders of cyberspace, why not celebrate a cyberspace Oracle.

Virtual congratulations, Alan. May the FWFR village Smithee forever forge reviews.
