Yep, good points Joe. I'd never thought about whether or not a word like "computerless" was in the dictionary, (you're right, it isn't), but I would definitely see it as a valid (though somewhat informal) word, and acceptable in a fwfr. I would happily attach "-less" as a suffix to virtually any noun.
Where's Salopian, shouldn't he be commenting here?

You can even hear it!
Sorry Joe, but I feel the presence of "-less" in the dictionary implies that it can be used with virtually any noun for which it makes sense. Hope I'm not being gormless here.
Now, if you could only find 'Jar-Jar,' lemmy.
I found this link Jar-Jar which gives the spelling 'Jar-Jar' as an alternate spelling (at the bottom of the page).

The review on this page that mentions "Hunt" is for a different movie with Matthew Broderick.
Alley Sheedy is his co-star in this movie.

There are two Mighty Ducks reviews which are incorrect:
for this movie,
http://www.fwfr.com/display.asp?ID=4870
sboog refers to the Olympics, when the tournament is the Goodwill Games. This is important as the Olympics figure in Part 4.
Which brings us to this movie:
http://www.fwfr.com/display.asp?ID=4880
The newest review by JWMP says that the trilogy ends, which are two incorrect statements, because obviously now there's a fourth, so the series continues past the third.
It's sad, but I love this series.

Benj, could you go ahead and change it to "Matt. Demon."
They seemed to be part of the same gang, in a way, but I spose those child molesting corporate execs deserved the bloodfest. Also I was thinking of them more as "fallen angels".
Thanks, Sean & AC.
Okay, I resubmitted this one for Dogma.
While in there, I also re-did a Big Lebowski review, which was "Walter out of element" and should have been "Donny out of element". I had Goodman's and Buscemi's character names mixed up.
Lost 2 votes on each... doh. |

As long as you resubmitted by editing your original reviews, they will keep the votes when they comes back
