"Lighten up!" If you're so lightened up yourself, don't call me "cult follower". Talk about hypocrisy. What is up with top-rate movie bashing ? It seems to be all the rage to bash Citizen Kane and 2001 these days. Maybe it's just simple ignorance.

Since then is "elitism" a bad thing ? I am proud to be an elitist in a world that seeks the mediocre. Being an elitist does not mean that you only appreciate "art films", it means that you are not afraid to speak up about what is good and what is not (instead of the tastes of the masses)...
