Did you ever think of taking all the words made up in Jargling and put them in the form of a book?

I recommend calling your book "Film Reviews in less than 5 words". That should cover you.



Or the Few Word Film Reviews



I've already decided on "Fore Weird Flim Revue."

For some reason I laughed at this long and hard.

And I've just laughed at the words "long" and "hard." Because I am twelve.

How about FAWFR? (Fuk-All Words Film Reviews... and the legit hyphenation keeps it to four words.)

Uhm ... I don't think that's true. Copyright is something granted by the originator of the material to the publisher ... in this case it's benj. He doesn't own the material, but by implication we have agreed to allow him to publish our original material.

HERE IS A QUOTE FROM BENJ's FAQ ON THE SUBJECT
Please note that when you post content (such as film comments, summaries or reviews) on our site, you are not surrendering your copyright over that content. By becoming a Four Word Film Review reviewer, you agree that benj clews has an unlimited license to republish anything you post, but, aside from that, you retain the right to use your words however you want. If you don't want us to republish your words, then don't post them on the site. In the event of republishing your content, you will be credited (under your nickname) as author where possible.






Hmmm. So I interpret what your saying correctly, that means I can make a whole book of the 1000 odd reviews that I wrote without sharing any of the profit with benj! Excuse me while I make a few phone calls.



Yep, however you'd not be able to call them Four Word Film Reviews

Yep, that's what I meant. He doesn't need anyone's permission to do whatever he likes with them.

Yep, publishing is the principal issue. As always.

Alrighty, there has to be a way this site can make more money for you....back to the drawing board.

Why should it not work again, they are always remaking movies with modern actors....
