I suggest Patric and Dmitry can settle their differences without your involvement - your using that incident to your advantage is revolting.
Fishing in the murky waters? That is sick.

Actually, Victor we had both the same feeling, on the point that did make Dmitry some kind of ..nervous. ( But he already did yesterday I think menace to retreat, or was it today on another matter...

  How did you like the AuPh's idea of a small section for the basically "the rest of the world" films?
  Funny, ain't it? Even funnier that he doesn't even realize his tendencies.

      That's because a couple of REAL idiots, who for the sake of politeness shall remain unnamed, are changing the tone and tenor of this forum. Two squeeky wheels are apparently getting all the grease. You guys should be delighted with yourselves.

      Hmmmm, no one has brought that up in this thread but you; I wasn't going to go there, but in the court of public opinion I'm pretty sure that any judge would rule that you openned the door to inquiry. ;^)

"revolting" - What a splendid idea! - Audiophilander 09:58:11 03/18/04 (16)
If enough people find your posts a distraction, perhaps we can have a real forum "revolt" and get this board separated into Domestic Film Pathways and Euro-trash Alley. ;^)
Seriously, a small European film adjunct might help tone down the anti-Hollywood vitriol a bit and encourage discussion. In all candor, I think that doctrinaire comments like those contributed by you, Patrick and occasionally Clark may actually dissuade folks from posting their less rigid opinions or sharing information.

      ..."picking each other's noses in public". [Sigh] That's what one calls, terminally un funny.
      And all because I dissed LotR, doubtless.
      But let me like a coupla' Russki movies, and have a favorite critic who is neither Ebert nor Siskel, and it's "certain highfalutin Euro-mustard calibre reviewers." Un funny and just plain weird.
      Let it be noted too, that you and I often disagree, and that I highly enjoyed Pirates-otC and Open Range, for instance, but to the likes of our stodgy friend I remain "doctrinaire".
      Nope. Like music, movies move me or they don't. Some people can't acccept that, just as they can't let great music enter their sad little lives.

        Someone recently told him about his lack of sense of humor - we had to call the slop brigade to clean floors of his tears.
        What he lacks in the humor arena he tries to compensate for with venom. So he stopped being fun long ago, but he just can't take the rejection.

      Whether Clark's sense is common, pure come-on, or the product of uncommonly good sensimelia, it doesn't elevate the level of his contributions when he decides to stir the pot and provoke controversy. By that I'm NOT saying that a little controversy is a bad thing, but doctrinaire implies an agenda of sorts (i.e., which some folks seem to be more inclined towards than others); Clark's is fairly obvious.
      For one thing certain highfalutin Euro-mustard calibre reviewers like Duncan Shepherd apparently have him by the intellectual short and curlies (17300, 17387, 18065, 18282, and so on); for another, he employs double standards with aplomb. Those who counter this by citing a mainstream opinion from any of a number of well respected reviewers or review websites like Rotten Tomotoes get dissed for daring to post that opinon (19604)! Note: Never mind that Clark's cited opinion may very well be of a film he hasn't even seen while the infidel who dares to differ may be providing corroboration for an informed first-hand opinion.
      Another interesting albeit peculiar aspect of Clark's complex nature is that his own reviews are spotty and not particularly well written; he prefers instead to cut'n paste obscure review(s) from among those critics who reinforce his own preconceived notions about movies he may or may not have seen (19583, 20065). Of course, the examples I've provided are merely a random sampling of Clark's posts grabbed by our friendly neighborhood search engine over the past 6 months; I didn't select the ugliest or the nicest, just those which easily demonstrate the points I wanted to make.
      BTW, Victor, I'm sure that you'll generate one of your "charmingly sophisticated" personal insults for my benefit which Clark and Patrick will find knee-slappingly funny, but from what I've been seeing around here recently, if I may be indulged a Broadway Production analogy by way of Mel Brooks, your posts hit or miss percentage has been more "Springtime for Hitler" than "Cats".

  You keep mentioning some mysterious anti-Hollywood thingy just like the Soviet apparatchiks used to mention the anti-Soviet one.
  The very mention of the word was enough to send shivers down one's spine.
  Perhaps this is your politicla bis speaking, I don't know, but the inability to accept opposite opinions is not something a grow man should be proud of.
  A "small European film adjunct"? Please don't show your Texas-sentric attitude. The world is about 20 trime bigger than the US, so perhaps a small American film adjunct would be more appropriate?
  You might want to run some numbers before making such a stupid suggestion.
