Definitely not different enough. Darn! I was sure I'd checked first. Maybe they were pending at the same time? I'm willing to give mine up, but I'd ask that the 18 votes be transferred to Fresno first, if possible. Would be a shame to delete all those smiles when Frez's review has only 3.

Could you please fix it, benj?

This is a tricky one, CP. I think your review is a bit better than Fresno's review, as I like one-worders, and in this case the word "open" doesn't really add anything to the review. (I had voted for both of them, incidentally). This may partly explain why yours has more votes. There may be people who would vote for yours but not Fresno's. I suppose ideally Fresno would get the votes, your review would be deleted and Fresno would edit his review and drop the word "open".

But, if your review is simply deleted and Fresno's isn't altered, then I can't help but feel that fwfr will have lost a little bit of something. Perhaps that's why it's still there.

Thanks, Sean. Then would I be totally hateable if I just pummelled Fresno with votes and called it even?

I'm sure Fres' wouldn't mind. You could always leave it up to benj, if he wants to delete it then so be it, if not, then it's because he wants your review on the site. It's a safe assumption he will see these posts anyway.

Yup, I agree.

Mr. Stupid's "Y Tu Mana Tambien" and Dante's "Y Tu Mama Azkaban" for Harry Potter 3 are very similar to my "Y Tu Muggle Azkaban" which was written long before.

All 3 make no sense to me too!
Vote on my "Hermione watches her back" review instead, it makes sense

Well, as long as you have seen the movie

Y Tu Mama Tambien and Harry Potter 3 were both directed by the same dude, Alfonso Cuaron.

And, "Y Tu Mana Tambien" means "And your 'magic' too." or something similar.

Mana - "A supernatural force believed to dwell in a person or sacred object."

That's probably it, unless there's something I missed. Not sure about Dante's one, that would mean "And your mother Azkaban" I think?

I think Mr. Stupid's one is the best.

Benj, there are two 'I eat dead people' reviews toward the bottom of the Soylent Green page. On the topic, that accolade has finally been updated to 49 films. If anyone has any more, let me know!

I only see one. Or do you mean the 'He eats dead people' one also?

Oops, sorry, that's what I meant. But even so, they're still the same review.

Benj, just noticed Jinx has duplicate reviews in Chicken Run. Nearly halfway down. Sorry, Jinx, no offence!
