Re: Vote on the next countdown (Oct. 2023)

Okay, cool, good sampling. Let me sorta-kinda "add" these up and try to have a poll up tomorrow-ish.

(Others can and should keep posting their top category choices in the meantime.)

Re: What site do you use when you find movie posters and post them on

If you attach them here it ensures they'll be here as long as the site is. Anything else, you're taking a risk.

If you need to take that risk, or just prefer it, imgur.com is my go-to as the...

I can get the poll up if we get something a little closer to a consensus. This is all pretty freeform right now. It would help if everybody could list their top 3-4 poll options (things you think...

Re: ‘Ideal’ movie running time is 92 minutes, poll claims

For my part, I don't think I've used the term "self-indulgent" much before. Maybe not ever in the context of film criticism, though I'm not sure. But if I were to use it, what I would mean by it is a...

I'd say there's no universal "ought" here. But I would say that a lot of films are obviously made for some intended audience, and it's fine to factor that in. I think film criticism is generally...

No, and often, they don't. There are lots of very clever, well-written jokes. Sometimes based on deep watching of the film itself, which also kind of contradicts some of the criticisms here.

Re: ‘Ideal’ movie running time is 92 minutes, poll claims

Re: self-indulgence and its definition.

First, as was noted, self-indulgence is excessive by definition. But that also means it would be a useless term to use literally. If excess is part of the...

I think we're probably talking past each other. I'm saying that a criticism of self-indulgence is more a commentary on the personality of the creator than the work itself, which seems to be more or...

It's possible within the next month I'll get Yelich, Suzuki, Woo, Musgrove, and Senga off the IL. That's like an entire core of a decent roto team all by itself. Here's hoping.
