          Oh, Wong Kar Wai has to be gutted about that draw. I mean, 2 of his films are easily in my top ten but Kubrick, man, Kubrick.

                        Same dilemma here but when I thought about it, none of Kubrick's works, absolute masterpieces among them, have given me as much pleasure as Days of Being Wild or In the Mood for Love. So WKW it was

                                I missed it until tonight.

                                Ken Loach is not in my good books, as he made me retch about an hour ago, with a totally pointless but disgusting scene in The Angel's Share.

                                  PPV, you haven't sorted out the Spielberg problem from the group stages, when you eliminated him despite winning the group.

                                  This exercise is not very credible if one of the great directors isn't there because you tallied the votes incorrectly.
