Jumbie Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 I came across this guy and thought "WOW. Finally I can get through the bullshit." I don't always agree with his analysis or verdict but the points he brings up are always spot on. http://bigempire.com/filthy/ his review of Bond 20 for example goes against everyone else's but that's good cuz nothing's perfect and balance is required. Oh yeah, he dislikes Kevin Smith and comic books too, so a lot of people on the board will be offended. But like I said, even though he disagrees with you as a reader, you can respect him cuz he's got good reasons for his opinions (Well except for the comic book thing. He seems to have a pathological hatred of us comic book geeks based on nothing but perception) His 'Quote Whore' sidebar is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbie Posted December 12, 2002 Author Share Posted December 12, 2002 Dude, he gave the 5 to glitter as a *joke*. Read the review, and you'll see. Basically he was like, "yeah, the movie is crap and Mariah's a talentless skank but she's fuckable so I don;t care" My favorites of the reviews in his archives are Glitter, Gladiator, and Crouching Tiger (where he shows that he really does know what makes a movie good). Also Jim Carey's Grich where he gives that movie the shaft it so richly deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 Whatever, he's ok. A bit over the top on the critical attitude, but better over the top than under the bottom ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
