    Just like the list this was in response to, unless you tell me WHY I have no interest, opinion or reaction to it. It doesn’t matter what people like or don’t like. What matters is why they make the choices.

    Neither one of you mentioned Hot Fuzz, and so I declare you both stink, with an “I’m rubber, you’re glue” corollary attached.
