"Charlie Don't Serf!"

A couple of tributes in a handful of fwfr goodness.

The Untouchables covers Ness vs. Capone during Prohibition, perhaps best symbolized by the smashing/draining of whiskey barrels.

A couple of weeks ago, and totally unrelated to the above (but for my awesome pun), 90,000 pages of classified info on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were published online by Wikileaks.org.

Enjoy.

Brilliant BRAVEHEART Review! Variations could be a whole subgenre!



That's very sweet and you have made me smile into my empty room




Now there are two smiles, in two empty rooms, thousands of miles apart...

My Bruno review is sort of an in-joke for kids who grew up in the late 1980s. There was a children's musician named Tom Chapin who sang a song called "Don't Play With Bruno, Bruno is a dweeb."

It would seem you are actually breaking both the rule of five reviews (you have 10) and not using reviews from the previous round - but maybe I don't understand Seán's spirit...

Nope, it's not technically against the rules because each time only five, and five different, were in my F.Y.C. and thus explicitly taking part in the round. The others were just linked to: it's not even a rule to link to one's F.Y.C., so linking doesn't define which reviews are being put forward.

More importantly, it's not against the spirit of the game since in total I am not trying to present extra reviews. I simply don't want to separate them.

In Inception, a "kick" is a shocking event used to jolt a person out of the dream world and back into reality.

What great way? Share, share the joy. Or, if too private ... enjoy the joy
