I was just browsing the behemoth known as Greencine and noticed that some guy has one whacked out "worst of 2004" list: - well - in so much that he has Goodbye Lenin, Sideways, Garden State and - wait for it - Napoleon Dynamite on it.
Apparently, I find that strange because I'm one of those, quote: "taste-impoverished, bought-off, mainstream daily and weekly reviewers"
His honourable Mentions include SuperSize Me and Closer.
No shot on his skills at being a father or making a lovely pie, but he called Lost in Translation "forgettable trifle" and a "slight, deadpan film" and then whipped around and said "Likewise with her husband's Adaptation, the writer-director has cobbled a movie only self-appointed hipsters could love."
That.. that.. that hurts my feelings. Now I have to pick up the pieces and try to have a Happy New Year.
I like it the best because when Lost in Transaltion came out soffia and spike weren't even married anymore. hahaha. douche. what does this guy have on his best list - Fat Albert?
This guy is trying too hard not be like the others, or maybe he simply has different tastes. But I doupt that, he hates those films far too much.
I don't agree with everything he has on there, but he's 100% dead-on about Napoleon Dynamite.
well, it's his opinions, i mean sometimes i wonder about the movies Twitch likes ;)
