Was he ever right?
Plenty
He did a decent enough job although he wasted his life reviewing movies.

He said video games aren't art, and will never be art. He was 100% right about that.
Said Dark City was the best movie of 98, which is objectively true
Someone post the webm

Why aren't video games art?
>>67493324
He was rarely wrong.

I love reading his Great Movies essays. I was reading them the day he died. I miss him.

Undertale is a more moving experience than Room or any film this past year. I feel bad that you are stuck in your ways and won't accept the gaming renaissance until theaters literally go out of business because games have them beat on every level.

Like all movie critics he was a flipfloper. When he was too blind to the genius of some movie that the public did appreciate he released a "revised" review. I can respect someone for having bad taste and defend his bad taste but when an "educated" man flipflops around all the time you know he is a faggot with no balls. Same reason Trump is a faggot.
I will never understand why this guy is remembered, he never did anything of any value.

He said The Godfather Part II was good, but not great. He did eventually add it to his Great Movies list, but it was mostly because it's a good companion to the first film, not because it's great by itself.

>some gay ass earthbound knockoff with talking animals for little kids and shit
>more moving than The Room

Well, he also wrote a screenplay for one of the greatest films of all time.

he was a fucking retard who knew that he could effectively simulate mid-level sensibilities to other hacks when necessary while using his pleb tastes to cater to the pleb masses

A lot of the times he was, but I still loath him to this day for giving Blue Velvet 1/4.
Occasionally but the times he was wrong did a great deal of harm to the art form (e.g., Star Wars).
>>67494585
He never did back down from that one.
>>67494585
i loath him for giving Mulholland Meme 4/4
>>67493324
Literally all the time.
