You did mention being curious, and since you were good enough to host one prior I'd at least be willing to sate your curiosity and let you have a look at the behind the scenes stuff, if...

Re: The Movie Forums Top 100 Comedies Countdown

Whenever possible I like to avoid choosing people. I'd be more inclined to flip a coin than try to make any judgment that anyone might feel as indicative of their ability or favor or standing in the...

Sorry for the delays! I have a reminder on this that keeps popping up but it's been a really busy couple of months.

I'm hoping to do several list-y things early next week. Normally they'd all be done already but I've been really sick this week and I'm behind on some stuff.

Either way, also fine with co-hosting duties to help satiate the curiosity. :)

We'll sort all that out in the coming weeks as we figure out what's next and when and all that.
