We've had our differences in the past but I do recognize your

Internet Movie Data Base--IMDB.com- -but your mention of
Wikipedia as the place you would check facts about movies
created that slim doubt.

My attempts at humor are batting 1000. I'll stop. I cited
Wikipedia because it's notoriously inaccurate and the very
place I'd likely get the wrong information.
I'm just trying to have fun here; liven up discussions about
books and movies I love. In real life I don't know very many
people who are interested in this topic so I value this list.
The Right/Wrong thing though, really impedes conversation.
Myself, I have Teflonon ego. Nothing much gets to me. But I
can see where normal people might hesitate before posting an
idea they could get called down on. Obviously we point out
factual errors and there's no conversation without difference
of opinion. But posts filled with whithering delight at
someone else's expense; I've certainly noticed that such have
slowed these interactions.
