Cat's Cradle deserves much better. Did the sexual frustration put you off?

Yo, Zacharyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, I definitely want your input: in the spirit of the upcoming Sight & Sound poll, come contribute to my latest poll: TOP 10 FILMS OF ALL TIME... I'm hoping listology's list will be more interesting than the Sight and Sound ones... and your choices would definitely help make that a reality :)

Zacharyyy01/06/2012

Thank you for alerting me of this poll and wanting me in it. That's nice of you. :3 While I find the concentration on a 10 arbitrary, I'd like to see where this poll goes and good luck/have fun/don't die with compiling it!
