A Quick Something

Sorry, I didn't notice your 1:51pm entry, Suspense (With a Little Suspension of Disbelief), until just now. This is the price we pay for conducting an online debate, I guess. That and the fact that anyone can jump on his or her computer and see that I only won 15% of yesterday's vote, which, I'd like to say, is yet further proof - along with the recent dust-up in Zimbabwe - that democracy doesn't work.

What we need is some kind of Film Fight plutocracy, a voting class I can stack with all my landed friends.

Anyway, I wanted to slip in two quick comments before you make your post-work, wine-soaked, Kim-Jones-after-dark entry and I'm left to ruminate on it until 5 in the morning:

1) Alfred Hitchcock is the most overrated director in movie history.

2) Anyone who saw The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull knows that Indiana Jones should have been put out of my misery a long, long time ago.
