:And when (if) you do make one, it must be presented before a learned panel of film critics, who will then assess where it places in the history of film and they will give you a list of films deemed equal-to or lesser-than yours, and you will then be allowed to have an opinion about the films on that list and express those views.
Yes. Having never made a film myself, (and I don't intend to, either), I guess I can't ever say that I don't like a particular movie, ever again!
This reminds me of that Mr. Show sketch where David Cross is playing the guy who ranks your "greatness" by how much money you've made, and you push the head on a statue of a little golden monkey to find out your current ranking.
"Did you know that Beethoven was never as 'great' as Sammy Hagar, The Red Rocker?"
Are there any Mr. Show fanatics out there who remember this sketch and can give more details?
