"Hated it!"
Posted on 08/17/2008 8:53:48 PM PDT by terbatime
Have you ever watched a highly rated film, as reviewed by the New York Times or some other pompous metro-sexual publication, only to find the movie an incredible piece of crap? I know I have. Why the disconnect?
First of all, how many real men do you know who are hired as film reviewers by TV, magazines, or newspapers? The answer is probably… none. There aren’t any. At least not any I’ve ever seen or read. (My apologies to any real men out there who do review movies. You probably reside in ‘fly-over country’ and don’t get published to the same extent as your metro-sexual brethren.)
In any event, how can these reviewers possibly speak for real men, when in fact they’re metro-sexuals, homosexuals, and/or women? Answer: they can’t. They don’t know us and they don’t know how we think. And even if they did, they’re more concerned with what they think than what you think.
Now, they think they know how we think. They believe we’re a bunch of primitive, unsophisticated, three-toed sloths who can’t tell the difference between a Bordeaux and Burgundy. O.K., they might be right about the wine. But I bet they couldn’t tell a Bud Light from a Coors Light. Generally, they not only scoff at people who don’t think like them, they go out of their way to show their contempt and disdain for them.

"Hated it!"
Two words: Stephen Hunter.
Short answer, no.
Long answer, yes, but no real man gives two sh1ts about what two poofsters think about any movie (or anything else).
Rule 1 must be adhered to at all times!

Yes, that was posted before I read the article, in case anyone’s wondering...
I go to 1 movie a year and I think I missed this year’s winner with Batman. Guess I’ll be on a 1 movie every other year diet from now on. A hugh loss in my life. /sarc

Yeah, we’ve got a writer by the name of Philip Martin that does movie reviews for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. His “wife” Karen also does reviews. Now, I don’t know if this guy is a poofter or not, but he’s come out in fervent opposition to enforcing laws against public sex by gays. He said (in a published column)that cops who arrest gays having public sex should be forced to clean dog kennels with their bare hands.
He’s actually not THAT bad a reviewer, as far as movies go. I find myself agreeing with most of his reviews, but he goes WAY overboard for gay-produced movies.
This is series...
Can Girlie Men Review Movies for Real Men?
Yes.
Badly.
NO POOFTAS!
FOUR words:
“Stephen Hunter”
Gene Siskel
Add all four versions of War of the Worlds, and THEM!
You might want to add on Saving Private Ryan and the DVD collection of Band of Brothers.
Add all four versions of War of the Worlds
What are the 4 versions? I know of the 1953 and the 2005 versions. IMDB lists a 1988 tv series. I would love to know what versions you were referring to so I could look for them.
I would add “The Thing From Another World” (1951) to your list.
I already know what I'm like.
