Your posts on the Moving Image Institute have been fascinating, and I admire your lucid writing. Just consider me to be a small cat trying to get you to play . . . :) Your imperative to advocate for cinema and communicate to a wide audience is noble, but is that it? :) On the blogosphere we really question what cinema is, what poetry is, what art is, and certainly what film criticism is. If film criticism can be art (i.e. Ed Halter's writing), and art is infinity, then we really have endless options as artists, film critics, bloggers, writers, and poets . . . As a video artist and blogger I am struggling to communicate my experience in the world as beautifully & honestly as possible, and that's my duty . . . Just something to consider . . . Hey!

You've hit the nail on the head. “But more to the point: if discussions of film are increasingly being relegated to specialized online spaces than in general interest news outlets with a broader readership, then are we being consigned to a cultural ghetto?

Are there any statistics available about the demographics who reads regularly a newspaper, subscribes to a specialised film magazine, visits arthouses? How many people even go to the movies (mainstream or otherwise) more than once a year, or once a month? How much more marginal is the film culture today than before?
