> I had a film professor who told us that he thought Casablanca should be #1 on AFIs list of the best films.

I'm surprised that the professor never saw The Godfather :)

Maybe he did. Casablanca is a superior movie.

Wait, you haven't seen The Godfather either???

[loloquwowndueo]

I have. All three if it matters. Your point?

[CoastalCoder]

I was pretending to be so in love with The Godfather that I saw this as an objective fact, rather than a matter of opinion.

I was also making an oblique reference to the meme that The Godfather is "the perfect film".

I was trying to be amusing, but apparently I failed spectacularly. I am ashamed.

This explanation makes it especially amusing.

[bkandel]

I was amused!
