This makes up for the absence of your LOLCats parodies, which this reader dearly misses.

Semi-related: I got a spam email today with the subject "gershon.catz" and desperately hoped it contained an example of LOLGinaGershonz. It did not.

your awareness has been noted.

Comedy.

Baffled, to be honest.

I made my own.
Also, I'd love it if you'd offer your take on this list from EW.com:
http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20207076_20207387_20207063,00.html
While we're speaking in terms of Internet, I think my reaction to this list can be summed up in one word: FAIL.

It's the new "All your base are belong to us." Please begin the process: quote, quote out of context, overhear some fratboy quoting and renounce it with a sigh.

I got spammed with a website called LOL See You Next Tuesday. The thought of the content had me giggling for a while.

Owain, have you seen Assayas' "demonlover"? If not, by all means do. All will be made clear.
Dan, I haven't weighed in on the list yet. Working on it. Having some magazine experience myself, I can be reasonably sure that the people who put together the list know some things about what's wrong with it, e.g., the idea that out of a hundred films they've got, like, fewer than a half-dozen foreign language pictures...yeesh.
