Saw th site listed as a "favorite waste of time" in Webuser magazine in 2002.
As for FWFR efforts on Truly Madly Deeply, Lamhasuas got it right with Truly badly tweely. |

Now you're not going to believe this but my cat, Tigga, was walking across the keyboard and somehow, by pure chance, pressed "www.fwfr.com" and then pressed the return key.
I knew you wouldn't believe me.

Well with infinite time I'd expect the complete works of Shakespeare from Tigga |

Yeah, but the weird thing is that she's writing them in alphabetical order.

This has been asked before, and I truly cannot remember. But the de-centrifugal force worked on me instantly. Thanx, benj! |

I was on a site that had odd news stories of the week. They had a special colum for odd web sites of the day. FWFR. Reviewing movies in only 4 words or Less. I just had to check it out. I was amazed by the great writing. I thought I could also do this. So then I became hooked, THis when the site was a poor little unnoticed site. Not like it has become today. TO this day I dont think I even measure up to the great writers of FWFR. But Im still workin at it. |

I'd be more impressed if Tigga put them in chron order since no one is sure of the order. (and threw in the poetry too) |

I honestly cannot remember where I first heard of this site. But I do know that last summer, me and my friends went to see the absolutely unwatchable "The Covenant," which my friend Mike pithily described as "Dragon Ball 90210." And I thought, hey, that'd be a good thing to submit to the Four Word Film Review. I only had a vague idea of what the FWFR was, I'd never explored it, I have no idea what deep recesses of memory I pulled it out of.
I submitted "Dragon Ball 90210" in my friend's name. It never got accepted. I started submitting some things in my own name too. |

An article in The Toronto Star highlighted the site in late October, 2003. I joined in early November and in the next three weeks these reviews were approved. |

I don't remember how I got to it the first time, I know I submitted some reviews anonymously and left. I completely forgot about it. Then about six or so months later (I'm guessing here) I was searching the web for info about Teen Wolf and this site popped up. I registered and started writing. About a week into it, I realized I'd been here before and submitted but couldn't remember what. LOL |

I was running a google search for some movie or another as I wanted to read more about it than the IMDB had. I chanced upon FWFR from google and spent a couple days laughing and the rest since then, writing. |

I've been on a couple of review sites and some forums cropped up from them by a few of their members. On one of those forums someone asked if there was a satire review site and one woman mentioned this place. I checked it out and now I can't quit.

Is that you Tigga? OK I'm impressed. Tell your master he's one of those Web smarty-pants |
