It's basically a one stop shop. This fact in itself means that the majority of people just don't take the time to read anything anymore, it's all just soapbox rant kind of stuff ergo breeding ignorance and stupidity. Someone should do a scientific study on it.

I guess if nothing else the guys at 88 get some good laughs from some of the idiots who do post, although it must get really frustrating for them at times.
There must be days when 88 Films are asked 20 different questions and, if neither Richard nor James is on Facebook that day, one of the inquisitive parties will be demanding an answer to a question which hasn't even been read.
