...comes Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and it's just fine. Not great; just fine - a breezy roundelay about pretty people finding lust with improper strangers. It is also the kind of movie that isn't made much anymore, which makes the movie seem rare, perhaps precious. So a pre-mortem revaluation of Allen has begun. In the New York Times, Manohla Dargis wrote of "his recent creative resurrection," which would mean she values (and now I have to mention them) Scoop and Cassandra's Dream more highly than reason allows.

...Stacy Keibler finished third. In a humbling post mortem of my prediction, I looked back at the way people were searching for Stacy. Her searches weren't about her dancing ability or even the show. Internet users were looking for pictures of the tall, leggy blond wrestler, fewer clothes preferred, en masse. This led to a new step in my prediction method, what I refer to now as an SKCC, the Stacy Keibler Correction Coefficient...
