What I do mind is that, because innovation is failing them, they're taking steps to force me to watch their advertising. Lobbying DVR makers, chatting with the FCC, trying to ensure my eyes stay glued on their stuff. Heck, once they're sure they have my enforced attention, why innovate? We have to watch it anyway, right?

Innovative torture is still torture.

I agree with Uncanny Hengeman, it's quite disgusting stuff - I was surprised at how popular it was when I was in England. Although I guess they're known for loving the ultra-sweet stuff.

I guess I'm on the outside as far as Crash goes. I really didn't like it-- thought it was way, way too hamfisted in making its point.

Yes. "Crash" is not a top ten movie. No way. It's like a 'grittier' version of "Grand Canyon" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101969/. Meh.

Actually, I sometimes think I do (but memory is such a tricky thing, those kinds of fleeting, subjective impressions aren't necessarily meaningful); my main point with this remark is that, even if you take a completely skeptical position, physical non-existence isn't really the novel condition (or non-condition) we often assume.

I'm interested in seeing the movie. I think it's very timely, and I trust in Clooney's intensive research. I have read numerous articles/interviews about the film and I am satisfied that it is a genuine project for Clooney (and I'm basically a cynical person).
I only wish it would change the so-called news reporting we experience today.
