AND, there was no contest involved to begin with, i dont know where you got that from. i was just curious as to how many people had. If it were a contest i would have included some terrible prize lineup. So if you dont mind, stop being gay about things.
Awww pookie, do you want an Oreo? Will that make your little woogums feelings all better?

First, although not a homosexual, it definitely shows your level of intellect when you try and use that as a put down. I'm not a very p.c. person, but saying things like, "stop being gay about things" is pretty damn idiotic. Not only that, but your vague use of the word "things" is really humorous. I am assuming that these "things" are the same as the "obvious reasons" that are apparently so obvious that you didn't feel the need to mention what exactly it was that I was being "gay" about.

I also, apparently, tried to sound "high class." What the hell does that even mean? Anything? It's also funny that, on one hand, you sound pissed that I referred to movies as an art and then, in the same sentence, say you agree with me.

I think the prize you "included" with your imagined contest you are having with everyone else is some sort of "pride" thing. Like the kid in the neighborhood who had the most GI Joes or Nintendo games, it appears as though you would like to sit back, content in knowing that you are top of the heap.

Aaaaaand another thing: you say I was "snippy." Anyone familiar with sarcasm would have recognized the self-deprecating nature of the entire post. The use of the word "bourgeois" and the light hint at introductory Communist theory were both meant to set each other off as meaningless. As I said myself in future posts, I have a distaste for people who say things exactly like what I said (which is why I used the sarcasm).

Anyway, now that I have deconstructed your post, I'll say this: if you resent people who want to come here and discuss movies/film/art intelligently because you think they are trying to be "high class," then maybe you should stick to the "pee pee" and "poo poo" threads started and maintained by juveniles and other people who prefer not to think. I can enjoy a thoughtless movie just as much as anyone else, and I too feel like things in the world of movie/film/art are WAY overanalyzed, but there is a flip side of the coin. Anything, no matter how outwardly stupid it may seem, can be discussed as flippantly or as serious as anything else.
