...The One-Minute Pundit

Some opponents fear that leaving movie choices to kids could taint the ratings system, voluntarily enforced by theaters since 1968. They say that could open the door to government regulation that would stifle creativity and experimentation in film making.

Regardless that "kids" already make most movie choices, this is PRECISELY why more popcorn-restaurant chains should adopt the R-Card -- so the PEOPLE finally have a chance to decide how movies should be regulated, not the SUPER-SECRET ALPHABET-SOUP CHEFS in ENCINO.

Speaking of which, (if we're to judge by this mewling hackwork) Dan Glickman may now be the favorite to take over from DR. EVIL. What THE CONSPIRACY needs is a weak man who can be overrun by the politicians and pressure groups. Dan may fit the bill.

Interesting -- this theater chain (whose founder has a name that sounds like kerosene) has expunged all mention of its innovation from its Web site (hence the Google cache on the link). I'd say they've taken an A-1 play out of DR. EVIL's handbook.
