Another Movie Club

Slate's annual movie club is normally a fun read, even if it always takes them a few rounds to clear their throats with way too much talk about "the role of the critic." It started yesterday, and will be updated throughout the week.

Despite the fact that they have to sit through hundreds of terrible movies every year, I still think film critics have one of the best gigs around. And in fact, David Edelstein is leaving his post at Slate very soon. Anyone know anybody over there who would be willing to take a chance on converting a young publishing type into a popcorn-butter-soaked scribe?
