I guess we'll leave it at that, since I can't do much with a comparison to TV sketches, especially since I don't know what they look like in your eyes either. Maybe the not so great quality of the...

I like how you start off your point by stating that you're objective, then immediately follow that up with an extremely subjective sentence. I would also really like to know, what exactly is bad...

Mr. Freedom is a spoof film, depicting everything wrong about the stereotypical American patriot and his philosophy. Actually, it's all of the latter,...

Same here, I've watched that film so many times, I'm amazed it hasn't lost its effect on me. I could literally put it on while in any mood, and still come out of it energised.

Grenouille is obviously no Joker, or Naked's Johnny, etc...He's a near illiterate weirdo, with no sense of social cues, so charisma should definitely not be one of his characteristics. As for menace,...

Re: 16th Hall of Fame

I as well am finished with all of the nominations, but I'm still unsure about the placement of one film in my list, so I'm not locking it down and sending it yet.
