Hey Michael,

I just noticed that our rankings were altered. I'm just curious--what is the system for rankings, and how many levels are there? (Is the system posted somewhere, and I embarrassingly didn't bother to look for it?)

The ranking system as of now:

  • Grip (1)
  • Key Grip (25)
  • Camera Operator (50)
  • Cinematographer (100)
  • Director (200)
  • Studio Exec (500)


Yeah, now you need 500 posts to be a studio exec, buddy.

Very Happy

If anyone has any suggestions for this completely arbitrary ranking system, fire away.

I'm more of a creative type, anyway. Who wants to be a suit when what I really want is to direct!

Eric! You have a fan, you lucky dawg! I am awed and humbled by his bold disregard for capital letters.

To paraphrase David Thomson: "Catch people up in their own opinions by what you say. Jostle readers to agreement or scorn... Provoke outrage, argument, discussion, re-viewing, and more thought."

Looks like I succeeded on the first count, but not so much the second. Razz

I used to get a lot of hate mail over my pan of Happy Gilmore, and once a reader called me a "Commie-lovin' bastard" because my Top Ten list contained "too many" movies that weren't American. Good stuff.

You got me: My mug ain't so pretty, and I rarely shower. But I draw the line at the Spaghettios. Beefaroni is where it's at, my friend.

Heck, each piece of hate mail for panning that movie is a badge of honor.

That's just silly. Too many foreign movies in your Top Ten list doesn't make you a Commie-lovin' bastard; it makes you a high-minded snob. Sheesh. Rolling Eyes

I'm shocked this forum has absolutely no mods. Does that work out well?

No mods? Wha'cha mean? Moderators? I'm the evil dictator here, bub; we don't need no stinkin' mods.

Welcome out, by the way. Very Happy
