The horrendous way that the season finale of Doctor Who was chopped up by the Sci Fi Channel for American broadcast has me thinking about the craft of editing -- and its power:
One quick cut, and the
Demented become sane, and
The sane prosaic

Hey MaryAnn.
Just wondering if you were gonna post a review for "The Assisination of Jesse James..", I would really like to hear your view on it, as most critics have been divided, and I have come to trust your reviews. (Only major difference of opinion have been "Titanic", But seeing how it made a trillion dollars, i'm probably in the minority:)
I would also love to see reviews for "Lust, Caution", "Elizabeth" (the first was awesome), "Michael Clayton", "Sleuth" and "American Gangster".

Yes, I will post reviews. But I'm not a machine. I'll get to them soon. But the ones that don't open for a while -- like *American Gangster* -- you'll have to wait till near opening day.

Then the solution seems obvious: MaryAnn must be upgraded. I'm sure Torchwood still has some of that cyberisation equipment stashed away. Is there anyone in the London and/or Cardiff area that might be able to check?
