I definitely agree with you.  The site is a very personal work and the intent is to raise the level of writing by catching errors or such.  Honestly, and I am not intending to insult anyone, I do not want an editor.  Badmovies.org has to be my outlet, despite being just a dumb Marine.

At present, I would like to ask AndyC, Mofo Rising, and Derf to proofread.  I will enable access to the new board and send you all a message with the link.

On the other hand, if anyone does note a mistake in one of the reviews then I have an idea.  I will post a sticky for the month of June (starting now, in May).  Put the mistake in the thread and I will put your name on the list.  At the end of June I will randomly pick someone out of the group (probably via a php script) and ask what free DVD I can send you for the help.  AndyC, Mofo Rising, and Derf will always be eligible.

If any error jumps out at me I'll let you know.

I know English much good.  Actually, I'd love to help out, but don't have the time with two jobs.   I do appreciate the commitment to quality, thats for darn sure.  But hey, I'm not a stickler either, if a dangling participle gets past the censors, I won't tear up my membership card.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
