Love the name, like the moderation, think Manavendra would make a splendid
moderator, and the charter is great.  I toss this out as one more possible
exclusion for the list:

    Best/Worst lists (which should probably go under the Simple lists exclusion)

Articles analyzing the appeal of films would always be welcome, I think, but
a bunch of simple "I thought this was the best/worst film" statements would
clutter the group.  Perhaps a better way to describe the exclusion would be,
"No movie polls on rec.arts.cinema."
