I think religious lunatics subconsciously process anything with an underlying realism as an attack on their hope for the supernatural to make it all worthwhile. That's the only explanation I can come up with for why adults become so insecure around "grimdark" or "edgy."

I did. His reasonings for liking obvious shit were weak enough to support the contrarian explanation. There's no way you can give Fantastic 4 a positive review without being a special snowflake being a primary motivation.

Unfortunately, I agree. The Rocketeer is one of my favorite movies, so I was hoping for a movie with a similar tone. The first half was fun, but then its just Marvel scene #324, Marvel scene #094,...

I think he keeps a D12 die is his pocket at all times. Before he writes a review for a movie, he goes for a roll. 5 or 8, he writes an honest review. Anything other than 5 or 8, he writes a contrarian review. It's the only explanation.

Goy Story? Are you 15?

And yes I prefer the technical and artistic achievement, and the well-acted - if less than historically accurate - dialogue-driven drama over two messy noise-fests.

This guy baffles me.

When his rating actually corresponds to the RT aggregate rating, he gioves some insight as to why the movie fails/succeeds.

Whya re his other reviews so contrarian?

Listen here you little shit. Armond White used to be a professor of film at university.

He knows what he's talking about. The only reason he's "contrarian" is because he's the only film reviewer with an actual education.

Pretty bland desu
The French site allocine.fr has much more acid coments in the zero points section of each movie page. Even more if you go in the "viewers critique" part.

Here's the zero stars page for "Les visiteurs 3" for example
>http://www.allocine.fr/film/fichefilm-221713/critiques/spectateurs/star-0/
You will have a good laugh reading this ocean of bile (if you understand French of course)
