But, Gene, (and no offense intended) while I agree that some have gone
overboard with QT, we--meaning Shawn, myself, and several others--were
merely analyzing the film which is what we all normally do on this list.
I don't recall any of us alluding, or making comparisons, to other
directors, until a few insisted that QT undergo some kind of canonical
litmus test. Certainly no text exists in isolation, but c'mon, if
everytime we discuss a film we have to hold it up against somebody else's
criteria for what constitutes "appropriate" art, than Jeremy may as well
shut this list down right now.

name-dropping and start supporting their assertions with some cogent
arguments
