I don't care about film as an art. I loved it.

No problem. But, you also need to Thank "Josh C" and "Nick" as they are the other co creators. We are glad you like it. It is members like you that really make the site...not us :). Also, did you notice the other person whose name is "Film Craver." Just search for them at the top to find 'em.
