    I think my favorite expression for complete and utter amazement applies here:

    WHAT THE WTF!?!?

    Didn’t see Transformers 2, but I did see Inglorious Bastards and it was worth every penny and more of the $9.25 admission.

    Suddenly, I have lost all of my former respect for Film Brain.
    That’s like… Michael Bay-level stupidity.
    A Bay film being better than a Tarantino picture?
    B*llsh*t.

    i can understand why someone would dislike Inglorious Bastards. But worse than Transformers 2?! At least the bastards had major plot points when the transformers are cameos in their own movie!

    I’m gonna stop now because I’ll be ranting for hours about this…

    Exactly. Inglourious Basterds is the sort of movie one can expect a range of opinions on, some people will like it and some won’t. But giving it a lower score than Transformers 2 requires some sort of brain damage.

    “I’d like to clear one thing up: Transformers 2 hasn’t been a 3.5 rating for at least two months now. I wrote that review in the pits of a depression – it’s more likely a 2.”

    Wow. I understand people have different opinions and all, but when you hate Equilibrium and think Transformers 2 is better than Inglourious basterds. You have bad taste. On an unrelated note to his bad taste in movies he is an arrogant loser with an awful accent. In my humble opinion.

    Film Brain is wrong about Transformers 2, but right about Inglorious Basterds.

    The marketing for IB was a joke. If QT really wants to sell a movie about Shoshanna, he should have the balls to market it that way.

    Way, way, wayyyyyyyyy too much footage was left in this film. The tavern seen was tedious.

    QT does some interesting things in IB (the Cinderella thing, the Romeo and Juliet thing, the ambiguity of getting off on violence depending on your perspective), but he could have done it so much better than this. Having a few brilliant parts amongst a self indulgent snore fest is just unacceptable.

    The Film Brain was already on my only-watch-or-read-if-absolutely-nothing-on-the-internet-entertains-me list for the trollish review of Equilibrium. This serves to push him right alongside a few other people on TGWTG in the ignore category.

    Seriously? Putting this movie within two points of Transformers 2, much less below it(even if the Transformers 2 score has been reevaluated)? That takes a level of having one’s head so far up one’s ass that they’re getting to watch dinner digest.

    Wow, Booze Zombie sounded EXACTLY like FB… makes sense. I always liked Ashens for the Brit humor, genuine, smooth, and hilarious. FB is forced, maybe he was under extreme pressure or something? Good for calling him out, he should know better. But if I made a bad judgment in taste, I would hope people wouldn’t turn all their guns on me so quick, either… But I think all you commenters above me were *kinda* on his side, but waiting for him to slip. I’m just anxious to hear what others contributors (NC, Benzaie, Sean, Paw, DW, etc.) say on TGWTG’s site. Like maybe, “relax”? “He’s not trying to piss you all off”?

    Don’t get me wrong, I love Spoony, but I really don’t like the way he presented this. Everyone is steamed because of the comparison of Transformers 2 and Inglorious Basterds. What we should be focusing on is the merits of Inglorious Basterds — I really think there’s room to say it is a bad film.

    All of this fire should have come as soon as he said T2RotF was a good film…

    I’m rather surprized that so many people can come out and back what is, essentially, a low blow. No one has the exact same interests in films, and if Film Brain noticed some good in Transformers 2 (which you all obviously saw, it made around 400 million), then so be it. one reviewer attacking another reviewers integrity based on opinion is in effect sad, and I’ve lost far more respct for Spoony after this then FB.

    Inglorious Basterds was NOT that great of a movie. Was transformers better?, no, but you can’t attack two distinctly seperate reviews. There are no articles that present provisions, such as “this movie was bad, but nowhere near as horrible as…”. At the time, Transformers was a wtv, are now this Inglorious basterds is worse.

    SUCK IT UP, God I hope this leads to some form of planned event…

No one has the exact same interests in films, and if Film Brain noticed some good in Transformers 2 (which you all obviously saw, it made around 400 million), then so be it. one reviewer attacking another reviewers integrity based on opinion is in effect sad, and I’ve lost far more respct for Spoony after this then FB.

    Inglorious Basterds was NOT that great of a movie. Was transformers better?, no, but you can’t attack two distinctly seperate reviews. There are no articles that present provisions, such as “this movie was bad, but nowhere near as horrible as…”. At the time, Transformers was a wtv, are now this Inglorious basterds is worse.

    SUCK IT UP, God I hope this leads to some form of planned event…

  • DymphnaWolf

    well, I haven’t seen either movie but judging from how bad the first transformers movie was, and hearing how the second one was worse, I seriously doubt that IB was as bad as what film brain was saying… However, I’m kind of surprised that Spoony would respond this way as this is how pointless flame wars begin.

    I guess I’m out of the loop, when and where did film brain review Inglorius Basterds, I wanna see his review before I bash on it… (It’s just rude to bash on something before you see it or at least before I heard more than a few comments from Spoony fans I don’t know, But I didn’t see the movie either…. But from ya’lls arguments I bet spoony ish right, but I wanna see it…

    True, but that doesn’t make Inglorious Basterds a GOOD film… almost any movie is better than Trannies 2

    Hey, I havn’t seen either movies though, there are two things you people need to remember.
    1. It’s all opinion and your opinion matters just as much as Film Brain’s opinion, so anyone attacking him because of what he thinks is an ignorant ‘basterd’.
    2. Going off on the reviews, there are worse films then Transformers 2. Good examples are anything by Ed Wood. That, or in my opinion, the “House of the Dead” movie by Uwe Boll, I hate that movie with a passion.

    well, ill be honest, he dosent make me luagh, butnot allot does. theres only a few rare moments when i luagh at either of linkara/ spoony/ NC/ AVGN.

    But my perseption of humour, is watching things happen at random. like Ytps…..sort of… and robot chicken…..

    anyway, i at least find his review of some films quite a bit informative, and find other problems with films, besides plot holes. But spoony, welkl, it obvious, he should start doint reviews on something current!

    Th bar scene, sounds like a massive turn off for the movie though, even considring QT can be a master of dialog, though, death proof is a bad example. Good scare moment, but too much dialog. I dont want to hear people talking like the annoying cunts in highschool, who are opligated to believe their better then men….or something. arentwe all equally worthless? ;p

    Lastly. my opinion, dispite not seeing this movie yet, is…..WW2? Really? Another WW2 film? World war 1 and 2 have been done like dinner. hell, almost all the wars, like the middel east, and vietnam were overdone. But by the sounds of it, this one might not be one of those movies, where theres good guys, and bad guys.

    its true, voilence is terriebly, whoever is on the recieving end. But we watch movies to get away from that.

    Besides, its much better to watch something like ‘hard boiled’.

    Hot damn, I’m tired of seeing hate messages on the Internet. I had enough of this problem on the Confused Matthew channel.

    I mean no offense to anyone by this, but doesn’t Spoony’s critique come across as slightly hypocritical?
    By Spoony’s own admission, ‘Inglourious Basterds’ is a film which could not possibly please everyone.
    I have not yet seen the film, but I, too, took issue to its callous aspects and wanton cruelty, featured as entertainment, in my review of the ‘Basterds’ trailer. As I mentioned in my review (you are welcome to check out my other videos at youtube.com/user/QUANTUMJOKER), I am still interested enough in the film to want Tarantino to prove me wrong. But, in the meantime, it simply doesn’t look like my kind of movie.

    As for Film Brain himself, he is one of my favorite reviewers on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com, alongside the Nostagia Critic and Chick, Bum Reviews and Little Miss Gamer. He has both a youthful energy and charisma, traits which he puts to good use in addressing the faults of the various bad movies that come his way. Moreover, we are both around 18, so Film Brain and I share similar tastes in movies.
    Film Brain’s best review to date would probably have been his commentary on ‘Final Destination 3′.
    Personally, I still like Wimmer’s ‘Equilibrium’, but he did isolate a few lazy aspects that, in my case, only add to its cheesy appeal.
    At its best, ‘Equilibrium’ comes across to me as the dumber brother of ‘V for Vendetta’.

    We all still love ya’, Spoony, but I was simply unsettled by your response.

    Hot damn, I’m tired of seeing hate messages on the Internet. I had enough of this problem on the Confused Matthew channel.

    I mean no offense to anyone by this, but doesn’t Spoony’s critique come across as slightly hypocritical?
    By Spoony’s own admission, ‘Inglourious Basterds’ is a film which could not possibly please everyone.
    I have not yet seen the film, but I, too, took issue to its callous aspects and wanton cruelty, featured as entertainment, in my review of the ‘Basterds’ trailer. As I mentioned in my review (you are welcome to check out my other videos at youtube.com/user/QUANTUMJOKER), I am still interested enough in the film to want Tarantino to prove me wrong. But, in the meantime, it simply doesn’t look like my kind of movie.

    As for Film Brain himself, he is one of my favorite reviewers on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com, alongside the Nostagia Critic and Chick, Bum Reviews and Little Miss Gamer. He has both a youthful energy and charisma, traits which he puts to good use in addressing the faults of the various bad movies that come his way. Moreover, we are both around 18, so Film Brain and I share similar tastes in movies.
    Film Brain’s best review to date would probably have been his commentary on ‘Final Destination 3′.
    Personally, I still like Wimmer’s ‘Equilibrium’, but he did isolate a few lazy aspects that, in my case, only add to its cheesy appeal.
    At its best, ‘Equilibrium’ comes across to me as the dumber brother of ‘V for Vendetta’.

    We all still love ya’, Spoony, but I was simply unsettled by your response.

    gotta side with spoony here. anyone who rates that racist, juvenile, insulting piece of shit Transformers movie above ANYTHING, much less a Quentin Tarantino film, even in a lapse of judgment, should have their opinion voided in perpetuity. sure, it’s inflammatory for spoony to be calling it like it is like this, but i’m impressed someone whose voice is worth a damn had the balls to say it.

    I saw both movies and I liked both of them (and neither without flaws). It’s just a matter of opinion.
    Transformers:
    +Giant robots brutally destroying each other, Megan Fox in slo-mo.
    -Robot ‘nads

    Basterds:
    +Brad Pitt and Eli Roth killing Nazis, Hitler turned into ground Nazi
    -Not entirely as violent as advertised

    Some people are flaming on FB, some people are flaming on Spoony. Why can’t everyone stop arguing?

    If you’re stupid enough to say “Oh Spoony, you’re an asshole for bashing another critic” then go away from this site. Are you not getting that Spoony is advertising Film Brain? Like he did with Board James?

    And all of you that are saying Film Brain sucks: I can see why. But give the guy some time. His latest reviews are miles better than his first. He’s getting better and better. Sure he doesn’t fully understand the term “comedic timing” but he’ll manage.

    I think that Spoony is genuine in his disapproval of Film Brain’s exceptionally poor rating (relative), but I don’t think there’s any real vitriol, as there shouldn’t be in anyone involved in this “firestorm”.

    This did desperately need to be called out, it’s on par with rating an Uwe Boll or a Friedman/Seltzer movie above a Stanley Kubrick or a James Cameron, it’s nothing short of utterly incomprehensible movie blasphemy (I don’t mean to say Tarantino is as good as Kubrick or Cameron, I love Tarantino to death but he’s not quite as good as them, but he’s definitely one of the best working directors out there).

    Spoony you should seriously do a video rebuttal to FB’s review. Stand up for the fans of cinema out there who cannot stand to let this libel pass unchallenged!

    It’s not that simple. For example: Spoony is my favorite, bar none, even NC. And he (Spoony) pisses me off all the time. I never know when he’s joking, he never claims to whenever he rants, but he’s hilarious and mostly smart. Be absolutely sure of this, though; if Spoony visits your hometown and gets food poisoning from your local Wendy’s, he’s gonna rip on your hometown. He’s gonna chew it up, spit it out, make a comment about the foul taste, even recommend your folks move away permanently. I mean it. But you’ll never know if he really means that, as overblown as his rant might be. It’s brilliant, and I respect that. I may never know if he’s really a nice guy or not…

    Okay, time for some tough love.
    Noah, I love your stuff and probably watch your reviews more than everyone else’s combined, but seriously, grow the fuck up. I cannot believe that you’re going out of your way to start shit with Film Brain over a difference of opinion about a fucking movie. This is the kind of knee-jerk dick-waving horseshit I would expect from an anonymous knuckle-dragger in the TGWTG comments section, not an A-list reviewer. Whatever happened to professionalism? Or just basic fucking courtesy? I know, who cares about that shit right? After all, we’re NERDS, and movie reviews are SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS, so let’s all have a good BAAAAAWWWWWWW and go back to taking cheap shots at Film Brain. This sort of nonsense might impress the die-hard crowd here at the Experiment, but it’s doing you no favors among your other fans who have managed to maintain some fucking perspective. You’re a great reviewer and a real talent who has given me plenty of hearty belly-laughs over the last few years, but you’ve gone completely off your tits with this one.

    Sorry, Spoony. But personal opinions of the film aside, I have lost absolutely every bit of respect for you that I ever once had with this post.

    It was childish, butt-hurt, bitchy, immature, uncalled for, and I honestly think you should be ashamed of this conduct. This isn’t Encyclopedia Dramatica, Spoony. Grow up.

    Sincerely,

    Um,

    The one throwing out accusations of “butt-hurt” is the same one who has just absolutely condemned someone for broadcasting an opinion (taken at face value) that quite clearly was not meant to be taken absolutely seriously.

    Getting this worked up over a playful slam of another critic’s selections is what is truly childish.

    People, this is like Spoony’s recent guest spot in Transmission Awesome (if you don’t know this name, go to ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com, and check out Podcasts, Spoony’s latest appearance was episode 32), when they talked about a very specific J-RPG that Spoony absolutely and totally hates. He respects all the people at TA, but Spoony (hilariously) flipped out with “HOW COULD ANYONE LIKE THAT GAME?!” and such, and it became a joke as to how much Spoony hated the game in question, but there was no ill-will, and by that point Spoony was joking as well. They were talking about how they’d put music from the game over Spoony’s voice when the podcast aired just to be funny and everything, it was great.

    So here, it’s obviously a genuine disagreement, and a genuine “wtf?!” feeling from Spoony, but the only people that are really at odds are the extreme fans that don’t take 5 seconds to think “Hmm, maybe this isn’t a personal insult, but just a simple disagreement…”

    Though this would be awesome if it somehow came up in a crossover event, “Ever since you rated ANYTHING higher than Transformers 2, I vowed my revenge against you, and now… I… WILL… FINALLY… HAVE IT!!!” and such, it’d be hilarious.

    As an aside: I personally like Spoony’s reviews more than Film Brain’s, and I’ve only watched video reviews (I’ve been too lazy for articles), but I do enjoy Film Brain’s video reviews on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com. Seriously, guys, if you’re really fans of Spoony, check out the people he’s been working with for a while now, you won’t regret it. You likely won’t like EVERYONE, but there is something for everyone really.

    As an aside: I personally like Spoony’s reviews more than Film Brain’s, and I’ve only watched video reviews (I’ve been too lazy for articles), but I do enjoy Film Brain’s video reviews on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com. Seriously, guys, if you’re really fans of Spoony, check out the people he’s been working with for a while now, you won’t regret it. You likely won’t like EVERYONE, but there is something for everyone really.

    Film Brain has to have some of the worst content on TGWTG. His videos are lacking originality his humor is to say the least bland & his taste in movies is horrid…

    People, this is like Spoony’s recent guest spot in Transmission Awesome (if you don’t know this name, go to ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com, and check out Podcasts, Spoony’s latest appearance was episode 32), when they talked about a very specific J-RPG that Spoony absolutely and totally hates. He respects all the people at TA, but Spoony (hilariously) flipped out with “HOW COULD ANYONE LIKE THAT GAME?!” and such, and it became a joke as to how much Spoony hated the game in question, but there was no ill-will, and by that point Spoony was joking as well. They were talking about how they’d put music from the game over Spoony’s voice when the podcast aired just to be funny and everything, it was great.

    So here, it’s obviously a genuine disagreement, and a genuine “wtf?!” feeling from Spoony, but the only people that are really at odds are the extreme fans that don’t take 5 seconds to think “Hmm, maybe this isn’t a personal insult, but just a simple disagreement…”

    HypnoFun just spoke for me perfectly, with the sole exception that I have not particularly liked any of Film Brain’s videos. They are not truly bad, but he is outdone by almost everyone else on the site in my own opinion (even Phelous gets more laughs from me).

    Here’s hoping for a video-crossover so Spoony can EXACT HIS REVENGE

    Film Brain expected conventional story structure out of a Tarantino film. For instance, he didn’t like that Hugo Stiglitz didn’t get plot armor after his fanciful introduction like was to be expected. That is pretty self-owning for somebody who considers himself a film critic.

    And yes, that review was unbelievably arrogant and snobbish. “He acts like he’s 16 and not 46″, oh yes Film Brain we forgot, you are a high brow film critic who is very intelligent for believing that anything other than classical drama is undeserving to be gazed upon by his brilliant mind. Yeah, my eyes were rolling out of my skull when he was bitching about the violence, quite assured that it made him seem mature.

    He is entitled to his opinions on Inglourious Basterds, and I’m entitled to my opinion that he’s a pretentious douchebag.

    Kinda off topic, but “douche” and “douche bag” should be replaced by “scuzz bucket,” “scuzz,” “scum,” “scum bucket,” or “dirt bag” pretty soon. Don’t ask me why, it’ll just transition very smoothly in that direction.

    One thing I’ve noticed about a lot of Spoony’s fans on this site is that they hate everyone who isnt spoony. They even hate on the cinema snob and Deantheadequate, even tho they are featured on his site, and they hated on Paw’s video when that made an appearance on here.

    Now I love spoony, I’d go as far as to say he is my favorite reviewer of the TGWTG team, but cmon people, quit hatin on everyone.

    Also, why are people takin this post so seriously? He’s only jokin around (at least I hope). He doesnt have any ill-will towards anyone on TGWTG

    TF2 was an abortion of a movie. Inglorious Basterds is also a terrible movie by a terribly overrated director. QT hasn’t made a good movie since Pulp Fiction. I apologize profusely, I appear to have expressed an opinion on the internet that may be contrary to popular opinion. CRUCIFY ME!!!

    YOU PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK! EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU! And I’m not just attacking fan boys and I’m certainly not attacking those who know the difference between a fact and opinion. I’m attacking those who attack other peoples opinions just because it’s not in majority. Like I said, I haven’t seen the movies yet I know you all are just being a bunch of panzies, you included, Noah! Just because you don’t agree with someone, doesn’t give you the right to attack their thoughts or opinions. If you don’t agree with someone else’s opinion, DON’T BE AN IGNORANT TROLL ABOUT IT! Instead, try to give a valid argument that explains your reasoning’s for your opinion and see who’s is backed up more and much more stable in being able to hold up on attacks, and within a CIVILIZED DEBATE. Now, just to clarify with the fan boys, I enjoy Noah’s work and I also enjoy watching Film Brain. I think they’re both funny ( if not obnoxious ) reviewers that both have their moments within their videos. But this is just sadistic how two people will turn on each other just because of one little opinion. An opinion that on a social scale, doesn’t mean shit. When you guys finish your idiotic scwabble, shoot me an e-mail detailing your arguement.

Did someone snub your opinions in the past somewhere?

    Furthermore, this could all be a light-heated joke but you seem to be taking this very seriously and personally.

    I loathed Transformers 2, but I haven’t been interested enough to see Inglorious Basterds, so no opinion there. I also think Film Brian is a complete idiot for giving Transformers 2 a positive rating, but that’s fine. I know a lot of people who liked it too. I guess he just has different tastes. What’s wrong with that?

    I loathed Transformers 2, but I haven’t been interested enough to see Inglorious Basterds, so no opinion there. I also think Film Brian is a complete idiot for giving Transformers 2 a positive rating, but that’s fine. I know a lot of people who liked it too. I guess he just has different tastes. What’s wrong with that?

    lol@the comments. how is “it’s wrong to say somebody is wrong” not a self-defeating argument?

    but then since this is spoony’s site, i expect half of them to be trolls. and entertaining ones at that.

    Wow…reading some of the comments here can do quite a number on one’s IQ level…

    To those of you who are claiming that you’ve lost all respect for Spoony because of this…do you honestly think he’ll truely care, especially given how many people have agreed with him so far? I find it particularly funny how you keep saying that Film Brain has a right to state his opinion. Fair enough, but doesn’t that also mean Spoony has a right to call Film Brain out if he feels that said opinion of his is full of shit if he wants to?

    Someone definitely needs to grow up, but I don’t think its Spoony…

    FlimBrain is a critic himself, and it seems he likes to think of himself as an intellectual considering how often he bashes on movies for being dumb despite giving a few of them, like Transformers 2, decent scores.

    Everybody has different tastes, but if you don’t want people to give their honest opinions on something and you don’t want them to state their opinions on other people’s opinions, this is a terrible place for you to be. That’s what critics do, that’s their thing. It’s like telling an orange not to have a peel. Plus, as critics, their opinions need to be held to higher standards than those who comment on things casually, otherwise the title of critic becomes utterly meaningless. If you think that’s over-intellectualizing it or that I’m taking it too seriously, then you’ve got no reason to listen to critics in general. It’s fine if you just want to trust your own judgment and let other people do the same.

    While I have yet to see either film, I know Mike Bay films are no prize winners. But Spoony I may be wrong but I think you just opened a can of worms by firing back the way you did. Like I said, I might be wrong (ill be the 1st to admit that I am wrong) but I cant shake a felling that this is going to light a powder keg and set off a flame war. I know that you have no good words for the Transformers 2 film. I saw your review, and I know it basically destroyed your faith in humanity. But this is on a whole other level, to call out your co-exister on TGWTG.com because his opinion differs from yours. That’s just bad news headed for your door step, Your not going to make everyone agree with your point of view. Like the old saying goes “You can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink.”

    I don’t like QTs movies (with the possible exception of Pulp Fiction), it’s just not my taste and I don’t watch them anymore, but I simply can’t believe anything could deserve a lower score than Transformers 2.

    That said, I’m still going to read FIlm Brain’s review now, because I’m happy about every person that does not think QT is a god among movie makers who can do no wrong, like… pretty much everybody I’ve ever talked to does.

    I don’t like QTs movies (with the possible exception of Pulp Fiction), it’s just not my taste and I don’t watch them anymore, but I simply can’t believe anything could deserve a lower score than Transformers 2.

    That said, I’m still going to read FIlm Brain’s review now, because I’m happy about every person that does not think QT is a god among movie makers who can do no wrong, like… pretty much everybody I’ve ever talked to does.

    A reason why IB wasn’t that good, was because of subtitles. Well, if I should rate films based upon if there are subtitles or not The Godfather would get a 3/10. There’s not 60% but 100%(!!!) subtiteling in there.

    Still I think it has more to do with the interpretation of a rating system than whether IB is better than a Bay-movie.

    I think Film Brain is trolling around as usual as he did with Equilibrium. When you say wow that’s a good movie about a movie everyone is on the same side that it’s a good movie than no one reacts or they just post 1 or 3 comments saying that it’s good. When you say a movie that has a large fan-base ( Equilibrium) or critics regard it as one of the best of 2009 ( Inglorious Basterds) than you are just trolling or an attention whore. That’s how I’ve always seen FB and I’ll always see him after seeing his Equilibrium review. I mean in that review he just criticized a movie for trying to be an action movie and a philosophical one and the movie did make some points. I’m sorry but you don’t make a career just by seeing a good movie and saying is shit just for the sake of being different or shocking because you won’t be taken serious. Oh and Spoony is pissed that he gave Inglorious Basterds a lower mark and review than he did for Transformers PIECE OF SHIT 2 and that proves the FILM NO Brain is trolling like an attention whore. Seriously I don’t need even to read his review because Inglorious Basterds will get tons of awards from different respected ceremonies whilst Transformers 2 will get all the teeny awards. How can you even compare the awful schlock that was TR2 an ACTION, CGI, ESPLOSION, RACIST, HILLBILLIE, MEGAN FOX SEX exploitation movie to a NAZI exploitation movie that mind you hd great acting from an unknown german actor whilst the other crap of Transformers had the audacity to prostitute John Turturro. That reason is alone to burn that movie in HADES and the DEVIL’s flames to ruin the career or just to whore him for a big paycheck. He was IN MILLER’s CROSSING. FILM NO BRAIN FAILS

    I honestly cannot enjoy any of Film Brain’s work, and I’ve tried many times, including recently with his Monkey Bone review. I admit to never having read his articles, but his videos are just awful.

    For everyone on thatguywiththeglasses, I understand it’s a question of personal preferences regarding film producers. But I honestly don’t know why Doug would let him post these videos on his site. That to me was Doug’s 2nd biggest mistake, the 1st being letting that douchebag the amazing atheist onto the site. Seriously, is that Doug’s new method of expanding the site, to just finding youtube accounts with a decent amount of subscribers and recruiting them? I mean yeah, Team FourStar was a good move, but seriously, the amazing atheist? While we’re at it, why don’t we just add Fred or Chris Crocker to the site, afterall they have a really high subscriber number.

    Sorry for the rant. Love just about everyone over at thatguywiththeglasses, but Film Brain and the amazing atheist were a huge mistake.

    To give Film Brain some credit, he did say that TF2 was like eating a bunch of sugary goods and then getting sick afterwards. So yeah, he only seemed to enjoy it on a very shallow level and nothing more. I hate TF2 as well but don’t always like Tarantino either. Beyond this little squabble, seems you two normally have a similar taste in film.

    And personally, I do agree Equilibrium is a bad movie. It’s got good actors and some cool action pieces but the execution really is rather idiotic.

    I agree that when you compare Transformers 2 and Inglourious Basterds, Inglourious Basterds is the better movie. So why the lower score? Who knows. I say a review is just someone’s opinion so I do not look too deeply into it lol.

    Spoony, coming from the Twitter site (mine’re protected so you probably wouldn’t be noticing any specifically directed at you), I must agree. TF2 was absolutely horrid.

    A few weeks ago a few friends and I finally cracked and decided to see how bad it really was and popped in the DVD. Half an hour in the movie the player stopped. We skipped the scene and a few minutes later the DVD self-destructed. The player spat it out with an error and the DVD itself had become completely un-readable somehow by any other machine tried.
    We took it as a hint and went for a burger instead.

    Ok, internet sit next to me, I need to tell you something.

    Ok, so I’ve noticed that you’re really big on accepting opinions no matter how crazy they sound or unpopular they are, and that’s great it’s cool you are so accepting. But I’ve got to point something out. See the way you act when someone’s opinion is that they disagree with someone else’s opinion, is kind of stupid. See you go on and preach about accepting opinions, but when anyone disagrees with your opinion that opinions should just be accepted, you kind of are being intolerant of that person’s opinion.

    So, stop being such a fucking hypocrite, ok?

    I absolutely have to agree with everyone above in that Film Brain and Amazing Atheist are absolutely horribly unfunny – I can barely make it through any of either their videos without erupting into a flaming ball of hate – and Spoony of course has all the right to set people like Film Brain back in their place, but I can already tell this is *not* going to end well for somebody.

    Honestly, I never even saw Equilibrium and I could still tell his review was full of shit.

    Doug really needs to thin out his ranks.”

    In all seriousness, TGWTG needs to implement quality control. I like the model the site functions on, and the content Doug produces is damn good considering how much he puts out, but only 1/3 of the rest of the content is any good. Mostly it’s people like Phelous or FilmBrain or Marzgirl, who may be good people and have some sound ideas, but try WAY too hard. The whole “passion panties!” thing in Marzgirl’s videos is what I’d describe as a, “LAUGH AT THIS! THIS IS FUNNY!” moment. And it’s a shame because I know she can put out good videos. Her “History of Animation pt. 1″ was pretty damn good, as is the followup she posted to Spoony’s FFVIII review.

    The biggest issue is that the talent on the site has potential, but it’s rare that anyone really develops it, and the community doesn’t push them to improve. I know they’re giving us entertainment for free and a lot of the videos are produced as a hobby and not by people with professional ambitions, but if they love their hobby enough to make videos and post them on a site like TGWTG (instead of, say, Youtube) I’d figure they enjoy it enough that they’d want to put out the best content that they can, not to please us but for the love of the craft. TGWTG showcases a lot of mediocrity, and not the endearing, campy kind of mediocrity Spoony does so well, but the kind that’s produced when people act stiff on camera and do what’s supposed to be awesome/funny as opposed to something which is a genuine extension of themselves. In short, if you’re fake it’s going to be obvious. Real actors don’t act, they feel.

    I remember reading some articles on there which were very poorly written; the same words were used over and over, spelling mistakes were rampant, and the author didn’t put a new or compelling spin on the topic being discussed. (See “The Worst Final Fantasy” characters or something like that; I don’t remember exactly what it was titled but that should be close enough to track it down.) Coldguy is the best article writer and even his stuff could use a run through a spellchecker before getting posted.

    I know I’ve gone off on a tangent so I’m gonna wrap this up. All of the above are reasons that I’ve removed TGWTG from my bookmarks and don’t plan to go back, and it’s why when I get my shit together and start producing content I’m not going to affiliate myself with the site. I respect Spoony and Doug and some of the other people on there, and I’m sure that if I met Marzgirl or Filmbrain in person I’d get along with them, but good people does not a good website make. It’s why, when I saw this post, I didn’t laugh, I nodded my head and said to myself, “Yeah, his opinion sucks.”

Music-wise I may not agree with him, but for the most part my feelings on certain movies end up being the same as his. IG is… I feel like calling it better than Transformers 2 would STILL insult IG. Saying the two titles together insults IG. Film Brain… good god, man. I thought his review of Meteor was good, but most of his stuff is just intolerable. This is the dumbest thing I’ve heard him say YET. Ugh.

Nostalgia Critic and ThatDudeInTheSuede is good (though he’s away for two years), and thats good enough for me. We’re not forced to watch the others, so just ignore them. Then they will go away.

    While I have not seen either Transformer 2, I saw the first and that was bad enough for me, or the re-make of Inglourious Basterds ( Love the original though. ) I have to admit comparing a Tarentino film ( And yes I do like most of his work. ) to a Micheal Bay film is like saying you’d rather eat cow shit than a hamburger. Now I should probably come to Film Brains defense as a fellow Brittish person, but I am scottish and he is english and there for my mortal enemy. Though seriously if he’s going to use a numerical rating system he sort of brings this on himself.

    In the end, if you want to watch a Transformer movie, buy the 1980′s animated movie and rock out to the sound track.

    Even if I didn’t really find Inglourious Basterds that entertaining, there was still more thought to it than Transformers 2. Probably more thought than Michael Bay have put into all of his movies combined.
    I still can’t pick my poison, however the depiction of Hitler and the ending of Inglourious Basterds is hilarious contrary to any of the attempted jokes in T2.
    Also I didn’t feel violated walking out after Basterds, maybe just a little bit.

  • ah

    I hate Transformers 2 as much as you did Spoony. But I felt District 9 was one of the greatest films of 09 and I didn’t much care for Inglorious Basterds. Pulp Fiction is my all time favorite movie but just because they both shared the same Director did not help. I can see why many people like Inglorious Basterds so much, and like you said yourself in your review on it, why some people wouldn’t like it at all. I was one of those few, sorry to say. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    im backing spoony 100% with this. i seen both of the movies (Transformers 2 i got to see for free and was going with very low hopes because lets face it you’re either going so you could see robots fight or for megan fox and i think that she is a 4/10 at best so i didnt go to see her.) but those two cars mudflap and the other one just painful, it somehow went lower then i expected but it was a free movie so what can you do(i live in a small town going somewhere else is always a plus) and i seen IB with no sleep for a day and a half and it still was more entertaining then watching SPLOSIONS!!!!!!!!! Christoph Waltz was an amazing actor in Inglorious Basterds and the worst actor was probably Mike Myers.
    the majority will always win in the end so Noah is right and Film Brain is WRONG!
    P.S. i do really think Megan Fox is not good looking and i know im wrong on that one because i will be like the .000000000000001% that think that she is ugly.

    You forgot Benett the Sage.
    First he was trying to be a poor man’s Angry Joe with his boring reviews and now he tries to be a poor man’s Linkara as well. And his silly fanfiction show isn’t helping either if the material is older than the internet.

    Inglorious Basterds is Tarentino’s Magnus Opus I.M.O. (and before it was Reservoir Dogs) I can see why people find other material of Tarentino his best, but for me this had all his ingrediënts in the right measurement.

    But if Spoony is serious about his ‘shut the fuck up’, my advice is : let it go.

    god, i sucks so hard that we are not allowed to say stuff like this over at TGWTG. sometimes i think you get banned if you just say “i did not like your review, i think you are wrong”. i know, thats just a feeling but it takes aways serious debate if you cant speak your mind being afraid of the censors. im not saying there should be stupid flaming over there but it say it should be allowed to do what spoony just did.
    thanks again noah, that little shit really deserves to get ripped a new one.

He has no clue about films (I’m sure his name is ironic) and as a fellow Englishman i feel ashamed that people have to watch his crap. Dr.Ashens or Wez and Larry are better example of British talent, not that prepubescent fool. Thankgod there are people like you who have taste and are knowledgeable about cinema. Spoony thankyou so much.

    Spoony, i couldn’t have said it better myself! Film Brain didn’t get the movie AT ALL… And his taste in Tarantino’s movies seems iffy at best! I mean come on, Jackie Brown? Maybe it’s because i don’t get this whole blaxploitation thing, but still, i fell asleep during Jackie Brown! At least Death Proof, my second least favorite QT movie, had a stellar second half, even if it had nothing to do with the boring drivel of the first part, but Jackie Brown for me, was just plain BAD!

    You can not defend Transformers 2 as a good movie. MAYBE a entertaining one, but even then you are only making a case that you are retarded. It isn’t just bad subjectively, it is bad factually. It fails in every facet of filmmaking. The plot is littered with holes and inconsistencies, many characters exist for no reason but too add ‘humor’ (and the humor is debatable). You can’t reason that the film isn’t bad because you should just accept the failing because after all its a giant robot film. Just because Sci-fi has unrealistic concepts doesn’t mean the audience has to accept bad writing because we are already accepting unrealistic concepts. If the film fails at its own logic, then the film fails. How can you cover up two giant robot attacks in major cities? “You just can”. Why do they use the shard on Megatron and Jetfire to bring them back to life, but have two jump through a million hoops to bring back Optimus. “Just go with it”. How can you cross a middle eastern check point without ID and just saying “I’m a from New York”, and also let the three other driverless cars pass through undetected as well? “Don’t ask stupid questions “,even though if they just cut that scene nobody would have asked ‘hey why didn’t they cross through a check point?”.

    It is a FACT that this film makes no sense. It is a FACT that most of the characters are not needed. It is a FACT that the same story could have been told in less than half the running time. It is a FACT that Transformers 2 is a bad film, and you can not make a case for it otherwise.

    …y’know what? I really shouldn’t even bother. Trying to fight ‘net stupidity is like fighting the tide. A very annoying, idiotic tide that thankfully I can’t hear in the real world for fear of it driving me MAD.

    Film Brain’s review may have emphasized a film’s merit over its fun factor (a fatal flaw for a Tarantino flick), but Spoony’s also indulging in the ‘comparison by score’ system, a system he himself doesn’t use quite possibly for the same reason – it leads to stupid shit like this.

    But some of you people out there! My god, you’d think it was like they were debating both sides of the abortion issue the way people are carrying on! One person at TGWTG even said, “I’m losing respect for Spoony” over this.

    That should speak for itself. If you can’t see why that statement is chockful of fail, you have lost the game. Turn in your smart-person cap and go sit in the corner.

    My only hope is that Spoony is, as I suspect, the kind of person unafraid to utterly IGNORE his fanbase when it comes to his expressing personal opinions.

    Regarding Inglorious Basterds I really think it was one of the best films of the
    summer. It is possible I could be mistaken on a second viewing, but I truly
    doubt it. There was not one line I would have removed, I would barely change any
    performances ( maybe none at all, I’m on the fence on Mike Myers, but He didn’t
    offend, He was however distracting, second viewing could clear this). Some
    people complain about the difference in the trailer and the actual film. I for
    one found it refreshing. Too often I have seen the whole film in a trailer, and
    this movie still left me with surprises. It wasn’t ‘Kill Bill in Nazi Occupied
    France’ like people hoped, but I think its better for it. It was more like a
    Serigo Lenone WW2 epic. I loved all the quiet dialogue scenes that were so
    tense. Some people thought it was typical QT pointless banter, and I couldn’t
    disagree more. It all had a point and added to the drama, I hung on every word
    because they mattered. Even if the character was rambling about Cinema, that
    wasn’t the point. People were sizing each other up, looking for mistakes in
    their speech, a lesser director would have cut the bar scene short by
    immediately having someone recognize the poor accent and start shooting, instead
    it was amazing game of cat and mouse, a real tense moment where you know one
    wrong word will result in a bloodbath. You can create tension just by pointing a
    gun at someone, but a great director can create tension with words alone, and QT
    does that countless times in this film.

    I think this is his best film.

    I’m going to defend Film Brain here. A lot of you are slating his movies and you know something? They’re not funny. What they are would be accurate critques of shitness, explaining why its shit on a detailed level. Most noticably Equilibrium, with its plot holes, unimpressive acting, repetitive action sequences, and rip offs of 1984 and the Matrix.

    Now QT is one of the most over-rated fuck trucks going. Jesus he’s only considered a messiah because hollywood makes so much shit, even a movie about jews being gassed would be cinematic gold by comparison.

    Inglorious Bastards a pile of over-rated shit? Yes. Transformers 2 a pile of shit? Yes. Seeing whose shit is the smelliest? I leave that to cavemen and apes.

    I couldn’t find this review so I d. I don’t want to make an argument I can’t defend. I can, however, state that this is not the first time that Film Brain has missed the point entirely. Now, I’m not saying “Monkey Bone” was the greatest movie ever made, but he totally misunderstood the entire premise of that movie and gave it shit for all the wrong reasons. I’ve kinda come to know him as a reviewer who gets mad at a film because he doesn’t understand it and that where the anger comes from rather than the actual poor quality of the movie itself. THAT’S the problem, not that he shouldn’t have an opinion.

    @YigSnakeDaddy (#193), how can ya consider the Sage a “poor man’s Angry Joe”? From everything I’ve seen, the entire concept around the Sage is not even close to the concept around Angry Joe. The Sage honestly and seriously reviews games, good or bad, and he doesn’t try to be funny with them, he just tries to give an honest review. Angry Joe does “parody reviews,” as he calls them, in other words his reviews are satirical in nature intentionally. The basic *concept* of their videos are entirely different. You’re not a copy of someone just because it happens to both include the same game, or similar.

    As for trying to be a “poor man’s Linkara,” I will semi-agree, but he’s only just started comic reviewing, with Linkara’s blessing, AND likely being a big fan of Linkara’s videos, so of course his first couple of comic reviews are gonna be similar to Linkara. When one of your main reasons to want to review something is because of liking another person’s videos, and it’s one of the only video series you’ve seen of it, your first couple of pieces are probably going to appear similar. I commented there and I’ll say it to you, Sage is capable of separating himself out from Linkara and I’ll be glad when he does.

    Well, Hypnofun, Joe is a funny guy. Sage tries to be funny, but fails. Like with his overly drawn out “Come on” shit in the Condemned 2 review.
    Also, I consider him a poor man’s Joe because the often review the same games. And whereas Joe makes his videos fun to watch with acting and sometimes the use of effects, Benett has game footage and a very boring narration with a monotonous voice, like a million equally untalent guys on the youtubes. It’s like he puts no effort into his bland videos.

    I have to say that Bennet often commits the DEADLY sin of video game reviewing: “If i suck at a game then it must be crap!” . I started losing respect for him when he named TR: Underworld and Mirror’s Edge two of the worst games of last year… Basically, everytime someone mentions combat problems in a Tomb Raider game review, he has TOTALLY missed the mark and has no idea what he’s talking about… Another example of bad reviewing was his Guitar Hero 5 review. After he went on about how great the gameplay mechanics were, he said that GH 5 is probably the most disappointing game of the year because he didn’t like the music in it… Just read any review of any music./rhythm game by a professional reviewer, NO ONE takes the songs into consideration for his final verdict because people’s tastes in music vary greatly! If for example i didn’t like the Beatles, should i call Rock Band Beatles the worst game ever made? What i’m trying to say, is that there are more meaningful reasons to complaint about Bennet than his reviewing style!

    Nobody expects everyone to love this movie.

    But anyone who would call a Michael Bay film, ANY Michael Bay film, superior needs to get a taste of the pimp hand. It’s like saying that an Uwe Boll or Paul W. S. Anderson movie is better than District 9. Personally, I was extremely disappointed in District 9 and felt it was one of the most undeservedly over-hyped and over-praised movies of the year, but I’d have to be raving out of my head if I claimed Alone In The Dark or Alien Vs Predator were superior to it.

    It’s the untenable superiority claim made through FB’s numerical-based rating system that’s got the fanbase fired up. It’s all in good nature though, and it would be absolutely brilliant if we saw some sort of video-crossover feud between Spoony and Film Brain. Good exposure for both, everyone loves a good feud.

    As much as I’m not a fan of Film Brain’s videos, the written review for Inglourious Basterds pretty much summed up my feelings on the movie. I think that if he hadn’t put a score on it we wouldn’t have had this problem, because everyone would be reading what he actually had to say about the movie, wherein he makes some excellent points.

    Ooh, a little flame war started. Calm down, guys, those are just opinions.
    I actually can think why Film Brain gave Transformers 2 (uuugh!!!) a bigger score than Inglorious Basterds. Maybe he expected a lot more from the latter and was dissapointed. Transformers 2 after all are just robots fighting (and dogs fucking…)

    In Film Brain’s defense, he probably regrets giving Transformers 2 that rating.

    Nonetheless, I have to side with Spooney, because he used the Arnold “FUCK YOU” pic.

    Actually it’s the “SHUT THE FUCK UP” pic which says something ENTIRELY different. Like, personal attack versus opinion. Anyway, it’s clear that many of the above posters have not read FB’s review and some even say so (not saying that DieselEdge didn’t). That is obvious to anyone who has.

    If anyone with a moderately functioning Brain doesn’t get the Movie it is not the fault of that Viewer, it’s the fault of the Movie for not being able to deliver its message properly.

    While i do think that Transformers 2 should be forgotten as quick as possible there are some good bits here and there in between. Some of the 3d models where nicely done. I liked the Raytracing. The Placing of the virtual Lightsources was actually good, it’s not like they were like “ok, this scene is supposed to take place around noon, so we’ll place the ‘Sun’ somewhere around here.”.

    About the “Seriously, I oughta slap you until the stupid falls out.”. I think that was ironical. I say that because i can not be sure about that. Regarding my first Sentence in this comment, this would be your fault for not being able to deliver the irony to me, the normal Reader with the Brain functioning within normal parameters.

    If it wasn’t supposed to be ironical you were being a bit rude. Bad Spoony!

    DarkSaber, it’s not out of fanboyism. Read Saiser’s comment. There’s nothing wrong with him thinking Inglorious Basters sucked. There is something terribly wrong with it having a lower rating than Transformers 2. How in the hell can you think it sucked worse than THAT?

    Is anyone really surprised he’d rate one of the best movies of the year lower than one of the worst?

    goddammit, pointless debates lose.

    inglourious basterds is quite a good movie, but i agree with most of the things filmbrain said in his review: a lotta scenes were too long, too much dialogue and by the way too fucking long (did i already mention that?). the last 30 minutes are really good, but the most parts of the film are pointless talking ending with even more pointless violence leading to more pointless talking.

    the movie’s still waaaay better than fucking “death proof”, but i think, it’s overrated.

    seriously though, transformers 2 was a piece of shit, but an entertaining one in my opinion. but there is no way in hell it deserves a better rating than inglourious basterds.

    I think Spoony should also pimp slap Doug for saying that District 9 sucked. I seriously cannot understand how Doug liked Transformers 2 and hated District 9. Transformers 2 had characters that you couldn’t care less about and in fact wanted to die (Mudflap, Skidd, the mother, etc). Also, the movie had huge plot holes and besides Optimus and Bumblebee, all the other transformers looked like crap and some were barley distinguishable especially the Decepticons. District 9 on the other hand had characters that you actually care about and it’s amazing to have the main protaginast go from being douchebag that you want to see die to becoming a hero and wondering how is going to turn out in the end. Also, the plot was different from other movies where usually the aliens are portrayed as the villans, but instead they are portrayed as just drones we all they want to do is go back home. They didn’t come to take over the planet or just come to kill us for the hell of it. They may have superior weapons, but they decide not to use them so you have sympathy for these aliens especially after seeing the experiments and torture performed on them.

While transformers might be very stupid, nonsensical and just bad, it could be more fun than some movie with a good plot, actors, design and shit.

I saw Inglorious bastards and have to say it was rather refreshing compared to Quinten’s other films. Of course FB is entitled to his opinion, but make it lower than transformers 2?!

    Spoony has watched Transmorfers when he was a little boy. And he likes the original thing, y’know?
    Wasn’t that one of the reasons he didn’t like this movie? “Because the robots don’t look the same etc.”

    Film Brain, on the other hand, is the younger generation, and doesn’t know the old school Transformers.
    That is why he enjoyed the movie!

    I have to disagree with film brain. I watched a reveuw of his, monkeybone, and while i’ll agree it isn’t a great movie, I noticed he cut out parts and changed things around. This may make it a slightly more entertaning however he made things that made sence in the movie, seem pointless and stupid because he cut out/didn’t show explinations, or motivations. Thats not very good reveiwing, When you reveiw a movie, you reveiw it as a hole, don’t cut out things that are important or explanitory.
    also yeah inglorious bastards was a fabulous movie, you just need a bit of that “thinking” thing to appriciate it. Transformers is for people who like shiny objects and eating crayons lol
    seriously, screw transformers, IB kicked ass. It definetly was one of the best movies i’ve seen this year.

    To Esc0bar0ni:

    This maybe true, however I don’t think it justifies the fact that FB still allowed his EMOTIONAL depression to effect his scoring. Now, granted I watched transformers when I was young and grew up on it. However, I’m pretty sure even if I was too young to see the cartoon and attempted to watch TF2, I would be beyound confused. The movie is just awful that’s all there is to say. The only redeeming factor of the transformers 2 movie was the fact I could now have an insanity defense incase I ever went on a murderous rampage.

    “I’d like to clear one thing up: Transformers 2 hasn’t been a 3.5 rating for at least two months now. I wrote that review in the pits of a depression – it’s more likely a 2. I was erring on the side of 3 for
    this review, but strongly considering to walk out tipped it into the below-par
    zone. As I said, there were bits I really liked. But I just didn’t enjoy it as a whole.

    “I don’t believe my opinion represents everyone’s, and I did try to keep it
    balanced, but I found that it would be far better as a much shorter movie. Stiglitz is a prime example of this. Why bother to have him in
    the movie at all when you do nothing with him? Its the same for the majority of

    never left a comment on here before, but i feel like what im seeing is attacks on another critic for simply having a different opinion from Spoony and the majority here. FB gave a thought out review of IB and gave good reasons why he didn’t like it. To attack someone as harshly as some here have for not thinking 100% the same as they do is flat out silly. The more people disagree, with good reasons backing them up mind you, the better off we all are.

    I have to agree with xplay3r. Film Brain does this constantly. It is wierd becuase the movies he does, like Monkey bone, are horrible, but then he still misleads or makes stuff up to say it is bad. Monkeybone is bad on it’s own merits, one of the worst of the year it came out in fact, but to say it doesn’t explain if the nightmare world is real or fake is just lazy reviewing.

    Also, it has allways irked me that he can review films like Sraphim Falls, or Equilibrium (both not great films but far from terrible), call them the worst ever, all the while that Transformers movie poster is in the background.

    Lastly Inglourious Bastards was one of the best films of the year so far. and I have wasted enough of my life on Transformers 2, too waste more discussing it any further

    Also, it has allways irked me that he can review films like Sraphim Falls, or Equilibrium (both not great films but far from terrible), call them the worst ever, all the while that Transformers movie poster is in the background.

    Lastly Inglourious Bastards was one of the best films of the year so far. and I have wasted enough of my life on Transformers 2, too waste more discussing it any further

    “I don’t believe my opinion represents everyone’s, and I did try to keep it
    balanced, but I found that it would be far better as a much shorter movie. Stiglitz is a prime example of this. Why bother to have him in
    the movie at all when you do nothing with him? Its the same for the majority of
    the characters.”

    He must have gotten confused because that applies to Transformers 2 much more than IB.

    If FB’s reviews have supposed to been fair, it’s news to me. I don’t say that as an attack on FB, that just hasn’t been the style of review I’ve seen. FB isn’t out to reccomend movies, he’s there to bash them. I know I’m in the minority, but I liked ‘Monkeybone’ and still thought his review on that was funny. It isn’t as if FB invented the concept of making a movie seem worse than it actually is while reviewing to make the review funnier.

    I do agree that TGWTG seems to have overextended itself. What I find is the biggest problem with the site is that you have multiple people reviewing the same stuff with many of them coming off as somewhat pale imitations of the best of the lot. Ex. If Linkara is reviewing bad comic books, you don’t need a couple other guys reviewing other bad comic books.

    While I bet I get a death threat or two for that, but wasn’t 1 important rule about critics in general that despite they being (more or less) professional they still can’t escape the fact that they always to some degree let their personal opinion flow in?

    I’m just saying. Afterall, do you really give the guy that tests, plays, lives and breathes RTS and Simulation games an FPS to test, too?

    While that admitedly won’t really go that much for movies as the genres generally blend in for next to anyone to try something new at some point or whatever, I still say that it is nothing but a tinch of personal taste in it.

    Afterall, didn’t Spoony’s brother also prfer Transformers 2 over some other stuff that Spoony clearly had an ongoing axe against only because of the length?

    This post is taken way too seriously. Noah is merely pointing out a huge flaw in someone else’s review and starting a little controversy is merely some entertainment. Remember NC vs. AVGN? Critics should keep each other sharp and Noah is one of the best in doing just that.

    I’m sure Film Brain is mature enough to regard this post exactly as it’s meant: as a big pointer to a major error in his review that’s just spiced up for comedy purposes. Too bad a lot of other people aren’t on that level yet…

    P.S.: Spoony isn’t saying anything about Film Brain himself. He’s just pointing out something stupid that he wrote.

    I HATE filmbrain, I can’t stand the fucker, he has no taste whatsoever. He’s allowed to have an opinion but he keeps on hitting dead horses, calling b-movies and stuff bad.

    Sorry, he’s allowed to have an opinion but this is my opinion.

  • Barabbas

    Alright, first of all I think that nobody has the right to bash FB for his own personal opinion.
    A rather strange opinion though it is, we still shouldn’t feel offended by his questionable taste. So don’t attack him because of what he likes or dislikes…
    If you really want to criticize him, then talk only about the things he says that are definitely wrong and I think there are plenty of ‘em. Personally I don’t care much about his opinions on movies as I found out a while ago that mine are totally different. What really bothers me however are some of the things he says in general about movie making.

    For example, on Benjamin Button (referring to the movie cutting away from the story to show old Cate Blanchett and her daughter):
    “…why are you telling us this? If it doesn’t serve a purpose, cut it. I can’t stress that enough to any budding filmmakers: if it doesn’t serve a purpose for plot or character, cut it.”
    This is more than just his own opinion, he describes this as a general rule for movie-makers… and he’s awfully WRONG! If every director followed that “rule”, we would have almost no Coen-Brothers-movies for instance. Random scenes are often very important to give depth to a movie and make it a lot more authentic. Not every scene has to revolve around the plot, many directors realized that a long time ago (QT, Woody Allen, Francis F Coppolla just to name a few…) Plus, this is just one of many very huge mistakes he makes in his reviews and it often seems like he just desperately needed to find something to criticize.

    So, I guess what I’m saying is: Don’t criticize his opinions but rather criticize the way he often reviews movies and think not only about the numbers at the bottom of his rants but about his arguments and whether or not they are actually valid… the rest is just taste and noone can argue with that^^

    I fully agree with Noah here. The Film Brain has lost all credibility in my eyes after giving “Inglourious Basterds” a 2.5/5 rating. I loved this movie and the use of french, german and italian was genius. This was highly appreciated in the European market and in Belgium where I reside in. Maybe its an american thing to be annoyed when someone speaks a language different to theirs.
    I thought the tavern scene was truly on par and can be compared to Vincent and Jules shoot-out scene in Pulp fiction in terms of intensity. Plus it definitely wasn’t 30-40 minutes long as the Film Brain said.
    So finally, Noah is right and Film Brain is a young kid who doesn’t really understand movies but enjoys a good explosion or two or a hundred since he gave transformers 2 a better rating.
    In other words, Film Brain, “shut the fuck up”!

    So there is your answer.
    But in all honesty even soony complains about inglorious basters that even though is not bad its nothing like you expect and has little to do with the inglorious basterds, so i guess to me and to film brain is a big minus, because that is like tricking your audience into watching something they dont expect.
    overall its not pulp fiction.

    If I may, isn’t this just a matter of differing opinions? Call me a Devil’s advocate if you like, but I don’t think it’s fair to state that anyone’s opinion has intrinsically higher value on the matter of quality of movies, save perhaps on a personal level.

    On the subject of Inglorious Basterds, the film quite clearly is designed for a more American mentality; it glorifies Americans pretty much at the expense of everybody else. While you can appreciate something like that even if you’re from a group being put down or misrepresented, most people in those groups won’t go that far. So Film Brain’s opinion of the film is quite understandable.

    As for Transformers 2, I believe the main source of hate about the film is that it appeals to a very basic sort of humor, one so lowbrow and childish that a critic with higher standards won’t see the appeal of it at all. Essentially, it’s not a “thinking” movie, it’s a “watching” movie, with more “fridge logic” going on than the entire Back to the Future, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones series combined. If you go into it expecting anything resembling depth or substance, you’ll be just as disappointed as if you’d expected to see a pure horror film when you watched Army of Darkness, with no trace of comedy or camp value to muck it up.

    The short version: people can have differing opinions. Don’t commit the sin of believing that your opinion is automatically right for everybody else because it’s yours. That’s a dangerous and hateful path to tread on.

  • matt

    well, my opinion about FB is that he doesnt know dick about movies and rants about shit he doesnt fully understand but he thinks he understands.
    there is a difference between not liking a movie for what it is and completely missing the point of every frame shown to you and then hating it. and thats what he did.
    it is NOT tarantinos fault if FB is too stupid to understand his storytelling. and dont come crying to me demanding that QT should have made it clearer. not every good movie has to be understandable by people with an iq lower then roomtemperature.
    and please stop bashing death proof you morons. its a character study and an hommage to car chases. anyone who wants more out of it obviously didnt get the whole grindhouse thingy qt and rr had going on.
    its ok if you dont like IB, but dont hate it just because you didnt understand it and call yourself a serious movie critic. thats just dumb.

    I think everyone is taking this wayyyy ot of proportions. I mean do you really think it was his intent to say that the bastards is worse than TF2? he grades on a 1 to 5 scale. thiers not much giving room between that so it might not be so unspeakable that a movie he didnt like and a movie thats just plain awful would end up in the same or similar place. if his bastards review had actually SAID in some way that this movie was better than TF 2, then i would be as mad as the rest of you. besides he said in his TF review he was in a gloomy mood and i suppose maybe the below-lowest common denominator humor and of that movie made him feel better. besides i can see why he didnt like IGB. I myself was dissapointed that thier wasnt as much action. I mostly got over that and enjoyed the dialougue….at least up untill the point of about the 50th false scare in the tavern (did all the german officers regularly go around jokingly saying they suspect you of treason to each other so much? And do so multiple times in the same conversation? sheeh). Besides, its an easy movie to dissapoint anyone considering the advertising wasnt so much of false as it was a blatant seething lie. if anything Film Brain is only guilty of not thinking ahead and considering that he might someday review a movie with a lower score than 3.5.

  • Saiser

    Hence why Film Brain is now feeling the sting of giving T2 a 3.5. It is strange though that the first movie he should rank lower than T2 was Inglourious Basterds, something similar was bound to happen the instant he gave any movie a lower score than 3.5 along the lines of, “How could you possibly think ___ was worse than Transformers 2?!?”, but the fact that it happened to be Tarantino’s IB definitely added a whole new level to the backlash.

    I’m also having problems with people dissing anyone who liked transformers 2. I didnt like it (except for two amazing fights in it) but still. Yes its a terrible movie. a very terrible movie. but you people shouldnt allow that to blow so out of proportions that u start declaring anyone who finds a positive thing about to be the freaking antichrist. I dispise TF two (and if i want to address that fool MEITTI above me) and twilight, but that doesnt mean im going to bash and bash and bash on the intelligence to anyone who enjoys them. frankly thats like punishing a child for being a child. if you have the ability to lower your standards and enjoy something poorly done then more power to you.

I dispise TF two (and if i want to address that fool MEITTI above me) and twilight, but that doesnt mean im going to bash and bash and bash on the intelligence to anyone who enjoys them. frankly thats like punishing a child for being a child. if you have the ability to lower your standards and enjoy something poorly done then more power to you. Iv’e found myself able to do just that on a number of shows.

    Spoony, you are a genius. Not because of what you’ve posted, but you know how much your opinion matters to these lowly internet retards. Look at those posts! It’s like flies swarming to a rotting carcass! They bought it hook, line and sinker. Isn’t it great to fuck with people every now and then? My hat’s off to you.

    I haven’t seen either film, but I’ll bet Transformers is better. Quentin Tarantino is among the worst directors I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t stomach Kill Bill for more than 10 seconds before wanting to throw my television out the window. At least Michael Bay’s films are good if you’re retarded. Tarantino’s films are bad no matter what you do.

    It’s true that everyone has different tastes in movies but Inglorious Basterds was leagues better then Transformers 2. I’ll take even bad Tarantino over Michael Bay any day of the week.

    For the love of fuck, people! Stop parroting the line “everyone is entitled to a different opinion” like it’s a goddamn original thought.

    Yes, people do have differing opinions. However, some of those opinions are, in fact, incredibly stupid. Now, when a great many people have opinions that are categorically stupid, a person such as Michael Bay will make a movie catering to them. This movie then creates even more stupid people in a world that is already overburdened by sheer idiocy, thus leading us one step further towards the end of civilization.

    So no, not everyone is entitled to have an opinion.

    “everyone has their own opinion” or some variation thereof is not an argument or a rational point. Opinions are not inherently untouchable nor are they all created equal.

    If I claimed my fervent belief that the Earth was diamond shaped and being carried between the claws of two gigantic blue lobsters named Mindy and Kikork past a huge black cloth backdrop of stars, I wouldn’t expect you to say “you’re entitled to your opinion”, I’d expect you to find out how raving stupid such an opinion.

    I found this comment on a message board some time ago in response to “His characters are def two dimensional, but it’s an action movie, who cares?” This pretty much sums up Michael Bay. For clarification, I did not say this and I don’t know who did.

    “I do, that’s who!! Who said action movies have to be for fucking idiots? Check out Aliens, T2, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Predator and Die Hard for movies that don’t have to insult your intelligence to be good. Transformers sucked bad, the robots were overly complicated jumbled messes and the characters were nothing to care about. How can a good movie be made from that? I mean really the corny Indian phone operator in the beginning firefight? How tired and played out. Oh and you can count on Michael ‘I’m going to fuck every hot chick on set’ Bay to unnecessarily cast hotties in roles they have no business in (case in point the Australian hacker-no way a chick like that knows how to do anything other than check Perez Hilton), which annoys the shit out of me. ‘Turn your mind off and enjoy the ride’ means the movie is going to suck. I don’t need something super intelligent, just something real and none of Bay’s movies deliver on that front.”

    And yet if that were an actual religion I’d totally want to attend a few of its church services…

    As for the “entitled to their opinions” argument that’s going on, I stick with one of my dad’s favorite proverbs, “Opinions are like assholes; everybody’s got one and they all stink.” I won’t make anybody look at mine, and everyone else can think what makes them happy. Just don’t shove it in my face and we’ll be good.

    I actually wasn’t planning on seeing Basterds, because I tend to be suspicious anytime I hear the words “masterpiece” applied to anything, but this review actually makes me want to see it. Sounds like my kind of thing. So I guess at the very least I can say this Film Brain fellow isn’t all that great at influencing people :p

    Relax. You’re not as superior as you think you are. I suppose it never occurred to you that a lot of Spoony’s fans like his reviews so much because he tends to have opinions similar to them. I seriously doubt there are a lot of people who think “I saw Inglorious Basterds last night, but I’m not sure if I liked it…did Spoony? Oh, he did! I love this movie!” Your comments are just plain childish and naive. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn’t mean they came to their opinion less rationally, and I’m sure the reason so many people are now down-voting FB’s review is they didn’t even know it existed until Spoony brought it up. I personally haven’t read the review yet, and I didn’t even know Film Brain existed. No one I know follows every single person on TGWTG.

    Without having adventured to see Inglorious Bastids, I will say this:

    Movies work differently for different people. Some people are bothered with simplistic ideas. Some like them. Some hate pretentiousness yet some done. So if Filmbrain really likes TROTF more than IBrds, it’s not because he has bad taste. It’s because his priorities, tolerances and prejudices are different. Either way, both films are on a low end of a measure bar, so it’s not like he’s even saying “Transformers is great, Bastards suck!”. He’s just saying that he was more bothered by the one where Nazis get scalped than the one where a robot humps on a model’s leg. I don’t think it’s an unfair assessment.

    But, hey Spoon, no prob. Just remember that you yourself have made berating publicly liked products like FF8 and Akira and Buffy a common job-du jour. Maybe you have, at those points, received a picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger with a funny quote yourself.

    I wouldn’t go that far. Kill Bill was decent in a moronic sort of way. Pulp Fiction had moments of both genius and idiocy, more or less in equal measure. Reservoir Dogs was fun. Tarantino has his ups and downs, but I don’t think he’s the genius many people make him out to be. There’s too much self-indulgence and ego in his work. From what I’ve heard about IG, it’s more of the same. If you liked Tarantino’s style before, you’ll probably like it again. If not, not.

    Which is, ironically, a bit similar to Michael Bay. Another director who found a formula that worked and milked it for all it was worth.

    A lot of people seem to be mixing up personal opinion with personal taste, which is for the most part subjective and unquantifiable. For example, if it’s my opinion that the Earth is square, that can be easily disproven and dismissed. However, if I say I’d prefer the Earth as a square over a spherical shape, that’s taste and totally subjective.

    If Film Brain says he prefers TF2 to IB, you can say his taste is awful, but that’s how he feels and he has every right to feel that way. If he says TF2 is a better movie than IB, he’d better be able to back that up with something. Same with Spoony from the other perspective.

    Lol Tyler. No, I am simply right about it. Transformers 2, and Twilight suck, and you suck for liking it.

    Saying you like Transformers 2 is like saying your favorite food is dog shit.

    Saying you like Transformers 2 is like saying your favorite form of sex is anal-raping kittens.

    It’s not because its just a crappy movie, but because of the idiots who brought it millions on the box office, assuring that Hollywood will keep spouting out crap like that in the future. Your very opinion of Transformers 2 being good DEGRADES film industry. All the future crap movies can be blamed on you. Thats why you are a retard if you like Transformers 2.

    The sad thing here is that Spoony posting this could be seen as funny responce, but sadly, the internet is full of spineless assfreaks who will see this and then simply write a responce just attacking Film Brain. OMG, HE GAVE IG A LOWER SCORE THAN TRANSFORMERS !!!! CALL THE POLICE !!!! The post is funny, some of the comments being writen by the Spoony’tards (mindless Spoonyfans – like the AVGN Nazis) will see this and then just attack FB. Its sad and pathetic and its just a shame that Spoony cant make a post like that without narrow minded assholes then basically assulting Mat. I noticed about posible cross over hopes between Spoony and FB, like the Critic/Nerd, Spoony/Linkara, but the difference is those cross over were brought about through humour. The narrow minded posters (not everyone of course) have pretty much stopped that dead.

    Sadly Spoony has fans like that too. They could have simply come here and said “Yeah, i don’t agree with FB” which is…you know, a normal grown up responce. Instead there’s people here assulting and insulting the guy for having an opinion. Does it REALLY matter what the hell score a guy gives a film?

    Yatesy, it never was compared.
    Film Brain himself just reviewed a QT movie, that’s all I seen when I read his text review.
    Spoony made a joke, I do hope, and it appears to have caused a load of his ultra-literal fan base to attack an otherwise fine contributor to TGWTG.

    For reference, I don’t object to opinions and jokes, I do object to the number of personal attacks I see here in these comments, particularly one where a commenter said he wanted to hit FB.
    Seriously think about what you’re saying and implying before you type and hit submit, people.

    Everybody has a right to their own opinion. To be honest I think the fans of both of these people are taking this way more seriously than the actual two critics are. I mean come on people do you even understand the term “sheep”? Because everybody here her blindly goes to the side of whomever critic they like right now and is starting this big pointless war is the definition of a sheep. Do you think I, a fan of Spoony agree with everything that he has to say about something? No, because I’m a big boy and can come up with my own opinion. People disagree, get over it you cattle.

    I bet this flame-war will settle soon enough, given how FB admitted that he might have had a little screw-up with the scores there. Now if he would just get from his lazy ass and change the score in the review itself, so people wouldnt be mistaken anymore. People rarely browse comments in reviews, and as long as that TF2-score remains there, it keeps hurting FB’s credibility as a reviewer.

    I would actually almost say that Inglourious Basterds is objectively better than ROTF, but it’s a subjective art form so I won’t. But, I’m very tempted too.

    Look the point that a lot of you twits seem to be missing is that film brain thinks that a michael bay film can be better than a tarantino film. This will never ever ever happen, end of discussion.

    Even when I agree with him, his stuff never fails to make me facepalm.

    Yeah, I realized, I screwed up the caption. I didn’t feel the need to correct it. Either way, it can be taken as an attack on FB’s opinion.

    As far as movie reviewers go I prefer ConfusedMatthew over everyone else. No offense to Spooney and Linkara, who reflect my entertainment views and Doug, who is just the funniest to me. I just prefer CM’s ability to intellectually tear apart and notice things that I wouldn’t have noticed or things that bothered me, but I couldn’t pinpoint it. With CM, you might not agree with his overall opinions, but I always learn something from him. I still listen to FB’s vids, but he’s far from one of my favorites.

    “I’d like to clear one thing up: Transformers 2hasn’t been a 3.5 rating for at least two months now. I wrote that review in the
    pits of a depression – it’s more likely a 2. I was erring on the side of 3 for
    this review, but strongly considering to walk out tipped it into the below-par
    zone. As I said, there were bits I really liked. But I just didn’t enjoy it as a whole.

    I don’t believe my opinion represents everyones, and I did try to keep it
    balanced, but I found that it would be far better as a muchshorter movie. Stiglitz is a prime example of this. Why bother to have him in
    the movie at all when you do nothing with him? Its the same for the majority of
    the characters.

    I don’t have a chip on my shoulder for Tarantino calling his own movie a
    masterpiece – I find it a bit egotistical.”

    I don’t give a fuck, I hated both movies, and I hate the full filmographies of both directors. Spoony isn’t trying to start a fucking war here, he just happens to be one of the many diehard Tarentino fan. Tarentino gets away with making stupid shit by calling it “stylized”. Film Brain was looking at it as a real movie, not some piece of arthouse crap. He doesn’t seem to like either movie, he probably gave it a lower score because of everyone in line to give Tarentino head over every movie he does. Like most of you fuckers that are trying to start something.

    You know what Spoony when it comes to games I just about always agree with you, but with movies we sure do have different opinions. The thing is you don’t respect other peoples opinions. You actually bash people for liking Transformers 2, for what it is. Transformers was never about story, but about awesome over the top action scenes. And on that part, the movie completely delivers. I haven’t seen Inglourious Basterds, and I probebly never will. Why? Because I dislike WW2 movies, that are fictional. It’s simply downright disrespectful to make a movie based on a real war. And then make it fictional. Reviewers should never throw insults at their readers. And stop bitching about a movie you didn’t like, cause it really makes it seem chieldrish of you doing so.

    Never saw Basterds (have been told repeatedly I need to) but a friend of mine and I went to see Transformers 2 expecting at the very least mindless fun (which we got in the first film.) But when the jokes came and we were the only ones not laughing we knew we were in for a terrible film. Heck, when we (or rather I to make him laugh) started MST3King this piece of crap I got shhhed. It was a first for me. Later I made my on micro review of the film. It can be found here: http://blip.tv/file/2345394

    I’m multi talents and can be in 3 places and 3 time zones at the same time. Not everyone can be as awesome as I am, but then based on SkekSo likes to suck cocks and wants to be me, I’d better not let him come up to me from behind.

  • Dezedor

    Well, well. It seems Spoony is even more intelligent, than I thought.

    I think very few of you actually noticed what he just did. By posting a short simple statement, in the form of a joke mind, he managed to control hundreds of persons.
    Let me explain it like this: How many of you guys normally reads Film Brains articles, or any articles at TGWTG at all? Now, how many of you read his review of Inglourious Basterds and Transformer2?
    See?

    Not only did Spoony point his fans attention towards a fellow reviewers material but also a completely different media. Thats credible. Also, this flame wars is HILARIOUS, which is only proven by Spoony’s encouragement at Twitter. Spoony jut proved how much he can control his fanbase, and how nastyminded a big part of it is.
    All in all a perfect WIN, right there.

    By the way, just to join the masses, I don’t think the real problem is the grade Film Brain gave the movies. The problem is that his grade system is very weak and jumbled. Basically he grades movies not depending how on how good they are, but how much the fullfil his expectations.
    Thats called personal approach, at least where I come from. I don’t like he’s grade system, nor his approach or general opinions. However, that does in NO WAY make Film Brain a worse human being, or a worse reviewer. It just makes him a different one.

    It’s just further proof that numbered scales for reviewing things is a tired and ridiculous practice.

    Comparing Inglorious Basterds to Transformers 2 is like comparing Apples and Reebok Running Shoes.

    One is probably better then the other, you’d suggest one but not the other, but can you accurately translate that into a number? What’s the difference between a movie that’s a 2, and a movie that’s a 3? You like it slightly more? The cinematography was terrific, or it was succinctly edited and meticulously paced?

    What about 2.5? Film Brain uses decimals in his scoring numbers, but that’s just a copout.. it becomes a system out of 10, rather then 5… but the problem still remains – it’s impossible for a single person to put a number label on a movie without looking like a tool. People who read those numbers will read far too much into them.

    Roger Ebert, although some think he’s a blubbery blowhard and an idiot, as far as taste goes, uses a simple system – Thumbs Up, or Thumbs Down.. it’s simple – did he like it, or didn’t he like it. That’s all people really need or want to know.

    Good on you Spoony for calling him out, but don’t call him out for the actual scores he gave. Call him out for using scores at all.

    Actually he hasnt because in his review of T2 he didnt mention IB and in his review of IB he didnt mention T2. They were seperate reviews. If anything he compared IB to Tarantino’s other work. Because he rated T2 higher, something he has since backtracked on, the fanboys have come out in droves shouting for his head because he DARED to do such a thing. Funny thing, everyones allowed to have an opinion until people don’t agree with it. Spoony had to put up with this shit from the Final Fantasy fanboys too.

    In the nation of America. Not impressed. Also, someone using your handle on a comments page like this (that does not use passwords) and saying “i suck cocks” would not hold up as “identity theft”. And it’s no more defamation than someone calling you an asshole. Don’t bring up the whole “Skanks in NY” thing as we all know that was basically a torch to the first amendment.

    I’m sorry but any rating system like that is comparative. Regardless of wether he said “I think T2 is better than IB” in the review, that is exactly what he said with the rating.

    Calm Down there, Margeret Atwod. You’ll give yourself shaken baby syndrome.
    Really, Spoony? Look…you’re a funny guy, and while personally I agree that I personally preferred Inglorious Basterds to Transformers 2, I don’t think that means anyone has the right to openly state so on one’s website in such a juvenile manner. I gotta say, I lost a lot of respect for you on that one. Have you been trying to finish off that bottle of Captain Morgan’s from the Pirate sketches? Because really, this is almost surreal.

    Oh and all you ridiculous and silly people arguing on this comment section: Grow Up. I mean really. Opinions are opinions, and agree or disagree, you shouldn’t just turn this into a flame war. Shame on you, Spoony, for starting this thing! I mean, you yourself said in your tweet “Flame On,” right after calling anyone who liked Trans2 a “dumbass.” SERIOUS lack of class, man.

    *Sigh* I just wasted some serious thought and consideration on this issue. It didn’t deserve it.

    Transformers 2 and Michael Bay sucks. Peter Cullen was the only reason I bothered to pay for the damn movie tickets, but even he couldn’t save it.

    Inglorious was decent, but definitely not worse than Robot heaven and Shia LaBitch pissing all over the screen.

    I salute you Spoony. Now go finish Persona 3 FES and Persona 4 before I lose any little respect I had for you.

    Actually he does have the right. It’s his site. I think you’re confusing “rights” with “what’s right”. And imo he’s fine to criticize something on his own damn website.

    Also, how many people keep threatening to lose respect for Spoony, he does not need your respect or approval so don’t throw the respect card because it’s not worth anything.

    So many good videos/reviews here, not one gets as many comments as this. In the end everyone is just more bothered with virtual celebrity drama then the actual reviewing.

    Yeah the defect of the mark system for a movie is that you don’t give a movie a mark for being a movie, you give it a mark for being the best horror movie you ever seen or the best action movie you ever seen. That’s were the system is flawed because a comedy like A Fish Called Wanda can receive a score of 9 from me for being one of the best comedies of all time and Norbit a 1 for being the shittiest and in the same time you could give a movie like Crank let’s say a 7.5 for being a good action movie or a movie like the Godfather a 10 for being an fantastic drama but that doesn’t mean The Godfather and A Fish Called Wanda are on the same league. It’s like saying a musician and an actor deserve to be graded the same for their achievements in their field or a neurosurgeon and a nuclear physicist you want to give a grade for their achievements. But you can’t because one saved lives by operating one at a time, sometimes they died because of complication and sometimes because of him and the physicist brought free energy by sacrificing the health of the staff. You can’t give them both a different grade for just being humanitarians because they do different things in their own different way. So what I’m saying you can’t say Inglorious Basterds deserves a better score than TR2 because it’s so much more than an action movie. I do agree that TR2 is an abomination of an action movie, but that’s what it is, it should be judged as an action movie that it doesn’t do right like other big boys in the category such as Indiana Jones, Iron Man and The Dark Knight. I didn’t see Inglorious Basterds but that movie really deserves to be in many categories such as drama, historical, action, satire etc that it doesn’t need defending. As for Mister Brain if he considers himself a critic he won’t back out on his opinion and score but he’ll have to calculate his words on this topic especially if he doesn’t want to be continued to be seen as a troll who only just gives a different opinion for shits and giggles and controversies. I’m not always on Spoony side, like when he criticized some aspects of Fallout 3 that he just didn’t get and weren’t inconsistencies, but I’m on his side because we need more quality opinions he had in his reviews to get away from shlocks such as Transformers 2. My conclusion is Brain should just stop the numerical system because he’s no Ebert or Siskel and just give his opinion and recommend it or not.

    Very true, but its called the National High School Mock Trial Championship.

    Well, this is all quite unpleasant. Rating “Transformers 2″ above anything but that with is lowly and worm-like is confounding. Even so, I cannot help but hold Film Brain in some esteem, however, as he mislikes “Equilibrium”, which I consider to be a priceless trait. Perhaps some day he will secure sainthood for himself by reviewing “Boondock Saints” in a like manner. In my mind, the two are of like kind and like quality.

    I didn’t even have to wait for another review after Transformers to think as you do, Spoony (or is it Arnold ? =p ) …
    If someone dares to call himself “Film Brain”, a name that kinda implies intelligence and objectivity, he has to somewhat live up to that screen name. So when I saw his Transformers 2 review, he pretty much lost all credibility, at least to my eyes : You can’t give this marketing crap of a movie more than the average score, even if you go by “I wanted to be entertained and shut my brain off for an hour” logic.
    You are free to like the guy if you still want to, but me I’d rather stick with other reviewers… like the one in there.

    This is why I don’t like rating systems. They’re pointless. Look at Transformers2 Rotten Tomatoes page.

    Critics: 19%
    Community: 56%

    If you look at the way the community reviews stuff, tho, you see that most everyone either gave it the worst possible or the best possible score. You see a lot more people giving it 100 or 90 or 0 or 10 than 50 or 60.

    The guy who gives it a 0% rating and the guy who gives it a 100% rating AGREE WITH EACH OTHER. They both have the same exact opinion about the movie. EVERYONE has the same opinion about the movie. It was a big dumb action movie with robots fighting each other. Everyone knows this. The details are pointless.

    The fact is simply that some people prefer a movie like that over a movie like Blade Runner or Citizen Kane. As someone who loves the CRAFT of filmmaking, I personally thought Transformers 2 was a steaming pile of ass, but my opinion of the film doesn’t detract from anyone else’s potential to enjoy the film on it’s own terms. I simply could not.

    Thus, no rating system is ever needed. All you have to know is what exactly is teh film going for, and does it achieve what it set out to accomplish. Transformers 2 set out to be a great big stupid action set-piece film. Did id accomplish that? Well, yeah. I think the record shows that a lot of people did think that it accomplished exactly that. Whether or not it will be enjoyable to you depends on whether or not you can watch a movie like that and enjoy it.

    I do, however, think less of the intelligence of anyone who could watch such a film and not be at least mildly annoyed by the way it assumes it’s audience to be borderline retarded. I have only walked out of one film in my life – Beverly Hills Ninja – but Transformers 2 nearly got me to do it. The only thing that kept me in the theater was the fact that it was so bad, I knew I could make lists upon lists of everything that was bad about it.

    You remove the CG effects and replace them with cardboard puppets or something and you’d literally have the modern day equivalent of an Ed Wood film. It’s that poorly written.

    Anyway. No rating systems are every necessary for anything. They can’t represent taste, as it’s a personal thing and one’s taste does not reflect tastes in general, and they surely can’t represent cinematic value, as evidenced by these two reviews. Also, it sort of cheapens the whole of cinema to boil it down to some arbitrary 4 or 5 star rating system. Why not ten? Why not percentages from 1 to 100? How about you make a chart that would allow you to place every film ever made on a value scale from one to one hundred million with no two films occupying the same space? Then you could chart exactly how presumptuous you are.

    Thus, no rating system is ever needed. All you have to know is what exactly is teh film going for, and does it achieve what it set out to accomplish. Transformers 2 set out to be a great big stupid action set-piece film. Did id accomplish that? Well, yeah. I think the record shows that a lot of people did think that it accomplished exactly that. Whether or not it will be enjoyable to you depends on whether or not you can watch a movie like that and enjoy it.

    I do, however, think less of the intelligence of anyone who could watch such a film and not be at least mildly annoyed by the way it assumes it’s audience to be borderline retarded. I have only walked out of one film in my life – Beverly Hills Ninja – but Transformers 2 nearly got me to do it. The only thing that kept me in the theater was the fact that it was so bad, I knew I could make lists upon lists of everything that was bad about it.

    You remove the CG effects and replace them with cardboard puppets or something and you’d literally have the modern day equivalent of an Ed Wood film. It’s that poorly written.

    Anyway. No rating systems are every necessary for anything. They can’t represent taste, as it’s a personal thing and one’s taste does not reflect tastes in general, and they surely can’t represent cinematic value, as evidenced by these two reviews. Also, it sort of cheapens the whole of cinema to boil it down to some arbitrary 4 or 5 star rating system. Why not ten? Why not percentages from 1 to 100? How about you make a chart that would allow you to place every film ever made on a value scale from one to one hundred million with no two films occupying the same space? Then you could chart exactly how presumptuous you are.

    This is why I don’t like rating systems. They’re pointless. Look at Transformers2 Rotten Tomatoes page.

    Critics: 19%
    Community: 56%

    If you look at the way the community reviews stuff, tho, you see that most everyone either gave it the worst possible or the best possible score. You see a lot more people giving it 100 or 90 or 0 or 10 than 50 or 60.

    The guy who gives it a 0% rating and the guy who gives it a 100% rating AGREE WITH EACH OTHER. They both have the same exact opinion about the movie. EVERYONE has the same opinion about the movie. It was a big dumb action movie with robots fighting each other. Everyone knows this. The details are pointless.

    The fact is simply that some people prefer a movie like that over a movie like Blade Runner or Citizen Kane.

    I’ll agree that the post Spoony made was crass and somewhat uncalled for.

    However, I do agree with him about Transformers.

    I refuse to watch Transformers 2 because the first is EASILY one of WORST films I’ve seen in my entire goddamn life. It was shocking how poorly executed it was. It’s like they said “Uh oh, we spent all our money on CG, looks like we’ll have to hire the cheapest, stupidest writers in Hollywood to pen this this.”

    It’s all bad all the time. I didn’t expect genius writing but I did expect not to hate every line in the movie with a firey passion.

    And the action that was in there was bad! Really, REALLY bad! The final battle was absolute crap. They just shoot each other for half an hour. That sounds okay, but imagine a western in which there’s a duel and the two people just shoot at one another for a while inconsequentially. Then a bunch more people join in but nobody gets hurts and just do the same things over and over again with no real point or purpose or impact AT ALL. And then maybe one good guy dies, but he only had one line and there was zero tension or build up to his death, so you really don’t care anyways. And then the action ends on an incredibly lame climax (again with no build-up or dramatic tension) Let’s say for sake of example that some kid comes completely out of nowhere drops an anvil on the Bad guy’s leader. And then the bad guys all run away. The end.

    I would feel incredibly ripped off by that “climax”.

    You can say “well it’s just a dumb action movie” but even a “dumb” action movie needs to be competently made. And why should action movies be dumb? Was Die Hard a “just” a dumb action movie? How about Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon? Terminator? Predator? No. Have some goddamn standards.

    In the Transmission Awesome episode with Film Brain as a guest, FB personally states that the concept behind the name is more due to knowing movie trivia, rather than the quality of movie reviews since reviews are OPINIONS. The name is also kinda catchy and easy to remember, which always works better. But I mean really, who would ever consider an opinion to be universal?

    I mean, except for opinions about the average Uwe Boll movie *bah-dum-ching*

    Seriously, though, one person feels scenes are too long, another feels they didn’t go long enough. One person says the action sequences were too blurry, another says stuff going on that fast, that quick, and that hard should realistically appear blurrier (funny, huh?). One person says that the main characters had no personality, another says that Twilight was the best movie ever (*snicker*). You can NOT be objective in a review, really, with the exception of technical mistakes (after effect bullet no hitting anyone and the person dropping like a fly) and a message that requires a 200+ IQ to realize is even there, nevermind understand, or acting technique like someone that never stops screaming expecting to be taken seriously, ever. A movie review should not, at the start of every review, need a disclaimer saying “These are my opinions, and should not be taken as complete and total fact unless otherwise stated specifically,” it’s the innate nature of a review!

    As for anyone who’s still going on about FB sucking about his rating and such, seriously, look at the SpoonyExperiment’s forum post about this topic, and check out page 6 particularly. Then you can stop taking the internet so very, very seriously.

    I don’t see how anyone is surprised by Spoony’s actions. Go watch his Transformers 2 review again, the hatred Spoony has for that movie is unlike any rage I’ve seen from a reviewer. Even so, Spoony likely didn’t do it to make the Film Brain look bad, he just disagrees, and thats fine. However, since this looks like a war, I’ll suit up for Lt. Antwiler. I will gladly sacrifice my life and my soul *salutes*.

    I’ve seen this thing snowball since last night and I don’t understand how some people are shocked at Spooney for making a post like this. One of the things I like about Spooney is the fact he sometimes gives you a brutally honest opinion of what he thinks good or bad. Do I agree with him all the time, no, but I appreciate his honesty. Another thing is the fact that he sometimes likes to push buttons and needle fanboys or take something a whole clique of people has deemed sacred and crucifies it. So I don’t really understand the shock of “how could he respond this way” or “I thought you were a bigger person than this”. Hell, this is one of the reasons why i like him.

  • Basement

    Whoever calls themselves “Film Brain” should be slapped. By calling himself “Film Brain” he claims to be definitive in his knowledge in films. While being funny and probably considering himself an entertainer, I would not call his reviews that… Brainy. Equilibrium for example is by far a very stylistic movie written to make a statement on human nature and the importance of human emotion, however of a curse or blessing it may be. Using strong coloration and multiple names of the Christian god (Tetragramaton for one) relates and compares the oppressive dyspepsian government to the Catholic Church- which is a valid statement seeing their history of repressing human instincts such as sex and in a sense playing “god” himself. The coloration creates a contrast between (obviously the film was also inspired by 1984- think thought police!) the living quarters of a sense offender and a normal citizen, again pointing out the lack of humanity in their living that we all take for granted- music, art and so on.
    Passing the film off as dumb is a very superficial way of analyzing the film given the depth that the writing and style delves to. A superficial review for a superficial reviewer. “Film Brain” is not brainy at all- so of course I wouldn’t expect him to see anything else that would make his brain hurt and like it. Transformers 2 is a popcorn-frat movie- which is right up his alley.
    In the case of Spoonys comic… Ok guys… are you seriously going to take Spoony seriously while using a inspirational poster featuring Arnold and using a phrase like “Smack you till the stupid comes out”?
    What a way not to think… Unless its just fanatic Film Brain fans or Film Brain himself trying to be annoying… if it is.. you suck the donkey balls.

  • arrogantguy

    Eh. Film Brain has a right to an opinion, Spoony has a right to consider that opinion stupid and so on, but I’m surprised FilmBrain backed down and lowered his Transformers 2 score, turning it from a good grade to a bad one. I’m no fan of the guy, but I thought he’d stick to his guns or something. I guess not…

    [quote]As far as movie reviewers go I prefer ConfusedMatthew over everyone else. No offense to Spooney and Linkara, who reflect my entertainment views and Doug, who is just the funniest to me. I just prefer CM’s ability to intellectually tear apart and notice things that I wouldn’t have noticed or things that bothered me, but I couldn’t pinpoint it. With CM, you might not agree with his overall opinions, but I always learn something from him. I still listen to FB’s vids, but he’s far from one of my favorites.
    [/quote]
    This is probably the single most depressing comment here. Confused Matthew isn’t capable of thinking logically or rationally, doesn’t comprehend the difference between subjectivity and objectivity, and is of the opinion that films are required to have a strong moral fibre (or anal-retentive children) to be entertaining.

    Worse than that, his videos are atrociously written, pathetically acted, and boring. I just find it offensive to the concept of intelligence for someone to suggest his whiny, moronic claptrap is the ‘intellectual’ equivalent of the Spoony One. Spoony has a far less pretentious and casual style, true, but the guy is definitely considerably more intelligent and grounded than Confused Matthew – even if I disagree with Spoony’s review, it always makes SENSE, as in, it is the sort of opinion a rational adult could be expected to hold about something. Matthew is pretentious but stupid and that’s not a good bundle by any means.

    Oh, hell, everyone at the following link: http://www.agonybooth.com/forum.aspx?g=posts&t=3706 put it a little better than I did.

    Incidentally, if you want to know what Confused Matthew’s reviews would be like if done by a guy with smarts, go check out http://www.youtube.com/sfdebris, aka Sci Fi Debris. Seriously.

  • yeah so i was like down at the

    @basement:

    Equilibrium was a movie for people who thought that Matrix was the deepest thing ever but thought they the Wachowskis could have been a little less subtle and that logic is entirely optional. I will admit that it’s a nice stylish kung-fu movie (which is why I can’t really call it bad), but as something thoughtful it fails on all conceivable levels.

    Equilibrium was a movie for people who thought that Matrix was the deepest thing ever but thought they the Wachowskis could have been a little less subtle and that logic is entirely optional. I will admit that it’s a nice stylish kung-fu movie (which is why I can’t really call it bad), but as something thoughtful it fails on all conceivable levels.

  • Booze Zombie

    Equalibium uses a lot of obvious “thought provoking” scenes, so I don’t really get how it’s a brainy film.
    If anything, I thought it was hamfisted.

    I was never really blown away by Equilibrium. I rented it , watch it and wasn’t annoyed I had spent five bucks to do so when it was over. I suppose thats more then you can say for most movies these days, but it didn’t blow my mind like it has for some people.

    Why does he reveiw films on TWGTG when he clearly knows fuck all about them. I heard him say in a interveiw that he seen Die Hard and holds it up as if its a symbol of his authority regarding what makes a film good, well everyone’s seen Die Hard and I don’t think anyone would try to claim its a master peice of film making. A decent and enjoyable action movie it may be, but there are much better movies out their. He also said in that same interveiw he’s never seen a Kubrick film and has only watch a small fraction of his “extensive” DVD collection. What that boy needs to do is to take some time off and go watch the classics(no Die Hard doesn’t count), as well as the great art house directors like Bergman or Kurosawa. Then, just mabey, he could back up his arguments.

    @Hypnofun:
    I can agree with you to a point. I haven’t seen Inglorious Basterds yet, so I can’t really compare the two, but I have a hard time believing that Transformers 2 can be viewed as “better” than just about anything. There are a lot of people who’ve given it 4 or 5 star reviews because it’s an “Action packed explosive extravaganza and other adjectives!”, but anyone who looks at it from any other perspective thinks it’s shit. I think it’s shit. IB might not be that great of a film, but I’ll guarantee that it at least attempts to be something more than just big stupid action, and that right there is enough to elevate it beyond Transformers 2.

    The only thing that IB might not be as successful at is maybe marketability and likeability. Some films are not easy to like, or purposefully go out of their way to make the viewer uncomfortable. Tarantino isn’t particularly fond of letting people slump in their seat sucking down soda and popcorn throughout the whole film, and a lot of people don’t like any sort of challenge at all. Bay generally prefers that that’s all people do during his films. Apparently.

    So the most popular films are those that are basically governed by a marketing committee. Maybe it sounds pretentious, but they’re effectively movies made for stupid people. Everything about these films goes through marketing. Can we make toys look like this? No? Well change them until we can make toys. Will people understand this part? Probably? Not good enough. Make sure we have a character explain it. Etc etc etc. They do everything they can to make the film as marketable as possible. They work up deals with companies to put crap from that film onto everything. Billboards, cans of soda, T-shirts, happy meals, hats, park benches, buses. They stick them everywhere. They make sure that you know that the movie is coming out, they tell you when it’s coming out, they let you know that you aren’t going to need to think at all during the film, and then they give you a ton of crap to buy before, during and after the movie’s release. Then they do the same shit when it goes on DVD.

    Quite simply, the whole thing makes me incredibly angry. Not that they’d do something like that, because let’s face it… they’re giving people what they want. The thing that pisses me off is the fact that THAT’S WHAT PEOPLE WANT. I don’t really give a fuck if it makes me sound like a prick to most people, but if you’re into this kind of over-hyped, market-defined, big dumb PG-13 garbage, YOU DON’T THINK ENOUGH. Like Transformers? Day After Tomorrow? Armageddon? Please turn off your TV, go outside or grab a book or just go and fucking think for a while. Seriously. Think about something seriously. Please. Use your brain for more than just consumption of mass media. Do a math puzzle or a crossword. Fucking anything.

    Because it’s people like that that are destroying the fucking world.

    I think that FB take on Equilibrium is more real nitpicking then major complaints. Some of his other reviews like AvP, Darkness Falls and Final Destination 3 were better because he went after thier poor story and ridiculous plot point convinieces. It also was his most complex review to that date and it had a lot of bits people said he just copied from other reviewers like Spooney and NC.

  • arrogantguy

    Regardless of whether or not you consider Die Hard a masterpiece, seeing a couple of Kubrick films should probably be mandatory for any internet critiquing nerdy person. It’s not exactly asking people to watch Hiroshi Teshigahara’s Woman in the Dunes (yeah, there’s a totally pretentious BUT AWESOME movie reference guys), Kubrick is a ubitiquous filmmaker whose films are just as much a part of our pop culture landscape as anything else. Hell, around half of his films are beloved cult classics.

    The thing that separates good action films and bad ones is the story. How good is the story to start with and then how is it exciting visually. Thats why i don’t like the idea of just putting in a lot of special effects and calling it a day. Thats also the reason Transformers 2 fails so badly, because if you got rid of the special effects the script you’re left with is like a sequel to robowars.

    I guess he is just sick of QT or something. Also me just using the short hand of his his name is only because I don’t want to try and spell it. On the other hand it could be that it just did not appeal to him or the fact plot holes drive him nuts. The one thing is his reviews that is the running theme is he picks apart plot holes like a dog picks apart old chicken bones in the trash. Some of the best movies have plot holes its just that we dont need to be spoon fed. I mean Jurassic park has alot and the dark knight too. Plus also I want to see a link or able to see what he says for my self.

    Bad Movie Beatdown only works if you hate the movie too, otherwise its just someone complaining about a movie you don’t know or care about. That’s his problem in general, because its not entertaining. Even if NC or spooney are ranting about something I have never seen its still entertaining to watch because they make it so. Linkara is great at that because i have never read 90 percent of anything he does but i love watching his videos.

    Sypher – hey, it’s entirely possible for a movie to be given to a filmmaker and that movie then rock.

    Case in point: Inglourious Basterds.

    When it comes down to it, Michael Bay and Quentin Tarantino are both auteurs – filmmakers with a distinctive style and vision who make the sort of films they want to see. They’re also ones fairly well steeped in pop culture, particularly in that they make an enormous impact on it.

    However, one of them is completely awful and the other guy has made some brilliant movies.

    So there aren’t any overarching Big Issues to be learned from Transformers 2, aside from the immortal words of Jay Sherman of The Critic: “If the movie stinks, just don’t go.” Amen, folks, go forth and preach this gospel unto the ends of the earth.

    The odd thing I find about IG is that despite being a great movie, it doesn’t have the replay value for me like other QT movies. Pulp Fiction, Resevior Dogs and Death Proof have a pop it in and watch anythime feel for me. And it’s not the length of IG because I can watch LOTR movies without qualms. I think it has to do with the fact that its so tense even when its just two people calmly talking to one another because you don’t know whats going to happen. When hes talking with the farmer or the girl in the restaurant I wasn’t sure if he would simply say good bye and leave or shoot them in the face. But once you see it through the suspense is a bit diminished. Maybe its just me. those of you who wish to flame me for liking Death proof may begin………………………….now.

When hes talking with the farmer or the girl in the restaurant I wasn’t sure if he would simply say good bye and leave or shoot them in the face. But once you see it through the suspense is a bit diminished. Maybe its just me. those of you who wish to flame me for liking Death proof may begin………………………….now.

    About Die Hard, it may not be a masterpiece of cinema, but it’s widely regarded as one of the best and well made of all “shooty action movies” which is more or less the same genre as Transformers.

    I can’t say anything about Transformers 2 since I have not seen it, nor have I any interest, but Inglorious Basterds was a great movie. I think Film Brain is just being a bit nit picky, but he has his opinions and it is just best to leave him to that. I think his reviews are a bit too critical of movies that, in comparison to the ones Spoony reviews, are not that awful. I do disagree with him one hundred percent and think he did not make any valid arguments, but that is neither here nor there. Also, I don’t think there is any use in throwing insults back and forth. Spoony can just use this site and say whatever he wants and Film Brain can post here and get flamed.

    This may be a cast of Values Dissonance, since you know England was bombed by the Gremans.

    Any what you’re taking this shit too fucking serious, it’s just a movie, it was ok (I personally didn’t like it) but not the best thing ever, it will be forgoten in a few months

    Also for God sake that movie is about psychotic jews murdering people who have in no way at all connected to the final solution because their Gremans, and THE only only that was IS THE MOST LIKABLE PERSON IN THE WHOLE DAMN MOVIE!!

    “This may be a cast of Values Dissonance, since you know England was bombed by the Gremans.”

    As an Englishman, I can say it’s more to do with him being about 15 years old and thinking he’s a lot funnier than he actually is.

    Also, does it technically count as cheating, the way he copies some of the movies he does videos on off the tv? The semi-transparent Five in the corner of some of the footage is the logo of Channel Five, which at least some of the films are aired on about a week or two before the videos are put up.

  • Druke Natas

    I agree, it is like comparing the classics to modern art. People can argue The Fountain is a work of art till they are blue in the face, but it does not change the fact that it is a urinal. The Venus de Milo is a work of art, Inglorious Bastards was a pretty good movie. Transformers is a useless, empty movie going experience and isn’t worth the 10 bucks you pay to get in. You’d have more fun staring at a urinal and trying to comprehend how it could be art and resisting the urge to pee.

  • BadLuckRocker

    I agree with Spoony in that Transformers 2 is stupid and there should be no debate on that fact. It is simply a pointless stringing together of comic relief and racist stereotypes. Inglorious Bastards may not have been a perfect movie but it was at least entertaining and didn’t make you feel like you needed to scrub your eyeballs with scalding hot water. I mean TransMORPHERS was a better movie and this guy is ranking Inglorious Bastards below it…give me a break. Film Brain has actually been bothering me for a while considering the way he nit picks at movies. I mean Spoony can nit pick but at least what he talks about makes fucking sense. Film Brain complains about shit that would easily be explained by simply listening to the dialogue. I know what a novel concept. Anyway thank you Spoony for delivering the STFU that was needed. :P

  • jtp

    The thing I don’t get about FilmBrain is: Every movie he criticizes is used in his theme song. It’s like “I hate these movies so much I will make an action-packed sequence using clips only from them”. .. I think the ironing is delicious.

    But about Transformers and Inglorious Bastards, isn’t he entitled to his own opinion? (I haven’t seen either movie so I’m not sure if that’s a really stupid thing to say or not.)

    I hate everything about Film Brain, from his reviews to how he sound like. The most common things anyone would easily find in his reviews are: bashing unnecessary detail in the movie, backing up his statement with nothing but his own unexplained idiotic opinions.
    You know what else is funny? He might be reviewing movies that I hate, but whenever I finished watching his stuff I tend to hate the review more then the movie it self.

  • kfizz

    It not the review it self he really has a issue with its more or less the placement of Transformers 2 over the movie since film brian is is out of the USA. One would think he would understand its taking the idea of a french film and running with it. Also it must have been that fact he was sold on it as a Dirty dozen type of movie. He says the plots really don’t Connect. But that is the thing he does not get is each part of the movie is a short film in within it self. So he is just mad he built the film up in his head and is just upset. Since its more about building up tension and having the pay off.

  • HWalsh

    I got to be honest… I didn’t like Inglorious Bastards and I actually did enjoy Transformers 2. I had to turn my brain off for TF2, but at least I knew what I was getting into. Inglorious Bastards was nothing but terrible false advertising and the usual director’s attempt at a deeper meaning that comes off so heavy handed that I felt insulted.

    I love Spoony, but I don’t always agree with everyone I enjoy listening to. The fact is Inglorious Bastards, to me, horribly sucked. We have no right to rip on Film Brain because he didn’t like the movie. Simple as that. Granted I don’t like Film Brain either but still, all of this over a bad review?

    I mean seriously, I would rather watch TF2 again than Inglorious Bastards again.

He has every right to that opinion, but everyone else has a right to react and respond to it. Just because its “his opinion”, the rest of us do not have to be mindless drones, smile and nod, and not respond.

  • MutatedJew

    You can’t bash on the Inglorious Basterds just because you thought it was gonna be something and it turned out different. Going and watching Transformers 2 with almost no expectations seems foolish. You can’t compare 2 movies if you hold standards to one but not the other. I refuse to watch Transformers 2 just because I’ve heard some of the stupidest plot points and scenes this year. Michael Bay might be good at delivering special effects to the audience, but that shouldn’t excuse the errors that he made. Special effects doesn’t make a movie good. Noted, Inglorious Basterds might have some faults, but it can’t be trashed on because it wasn’t something you expected. I like TIB because I know how Tarantino works in his movies, and I despise Transformers 2 because of some of the dumbest stuff I’ve heard that we’re in the movie.

    As some people state above, people are entitled to opinions.
    However, we are not talking about subjective preference– What FB discusses, and is often dead wrong about, is objective quality- Things that are measurable by near-universal standards.

    By said standards, Inglorious Bastards is a quality film.
    And by the same standards, Transformers 2 was a goddamn piece of trash.

    Also, even though a person is entitled to opinion, if they post said opinion on a public forum, in the form of a video no less, we are equally entitled to SMACK THE TASTE OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS FOR BEING SO DUMB.

    Ever since I saw his Equilibrium review I couldn’t stand him. Not because I think Equilibrium is a good movie (I don’t), but it just showed how much he just doesn’t get about movies, and why people like them. If he ever made a feature film himself it would be the most wanky, pretentious piece of shit… so yeah, just like a longer version of one of his reviews, I guess.

    Woah woah woah, woah, steady on there you insecure people, Spoony jokes about a review Filmbrain made with a funny little macro image and suddenly you’re baying for blood? Calm down and keep that to yourselves, there’s enough ignorant internet aggression without you contributing.

    This is worse than the comments box for that not-so-positive review that the Bum did for District 9, suddenly we had over a dozen or so “fans” going on and on about how it was worse than being hit by a truck full of cancer (I loved it btw) and saying things like “Oooh my god! that’s right mister m’critic why can’t people like, wake up and see how bad this movie really is!”.

    Remember kids, nobody likes a clingy fanboy who can’t control his crusader-like fervour for whatever he’s devoted himself to, even if he is a fan of Spoony.

    We aren’t necessarily just quoting Spoony’s opinion here and a lot of us aren’t just being clingy. For me Film Brain has been bugging me for a while and the article kinda opened the flood gate for me to talk about it. I just happen to agree with Spoony and if I hadn’t I would have stated that. I don’t see that as being a tool or drone rather than just throwing my opinion into the ring.

    I hated Inglorious Basterds. HATED IT. I signed on for a different movie, and frankly that made it sort of drudgery for me. I’ll see it again in a few months and I might like it more.

    That having been said, Transformers 2 is easily in my top five list of worst movies of all time. I don’t see how it could actually ACHIEVE any kind of score that wasn’t in the negatives.

    I haven’t watched neither movies, I think that TF1 was okey, nothing special but the action was good sometimes but the majority of the action sequences it was choppy and annoying.
    If TF2 had more of those it sucked, and the story for what I’ve heard was crappy as hell.
    Also I doubt that Tarantino would do a movie worse than a Bay movie.
    FB is entitled to an opinion and so is spoony.

    I want to see Film Brain kicked from TGWTG. I really do. He is a pitiful attention whore, who uses the art of trolling to get some views/comments, but the fact is, he lacks any kind of cinematic taste and the ability to write a coherent and informative review. On the top of that he is not even funny plus he sounds like a highbrow snob but after watching some of his videos everyone will soon realize that he has no f*ckin clue about movies whatsoever. I don’t care about FB-fanboys, if they are so damned satisfied with his content then they will be able to find it on another site and please spare the majority from hypertension after accidentally clicking on a shitty review of his. (I don’t want to argue about his IB-review, because FB simply missed (or just made as if missed) every point of the movie and seemingly those who try to defend him are the same case.

  • Saiser

    Yes, but in all fairness it seems like many people missed the point of the movie, including those who liked it. You’ve got people leaving comments about how much they liked watching the Basterds give the Nazis their “comeuppance” and so forth, scalping them and committing other various war crimes. They swallow the same line FB did, that the Nazis are automatically bad guys and the Basterds are the good guys, but what horrifies me is some of them liked the movie because of it.

    The point was that Tarantino was mocking that very idea, that whole movie is laughing at the people in the audience who came to see justice dished out on those evil, demonic Nazis. The whole film (or most of it) is a brilliant subversion of the trope All Germans Are Nazis (and of course, its unspoken corollary All Nazis Are Evil). That some people really could sit through the scene where the Nazi officer very heroically refuses to sell out his fellow countrymen and soldiers even at the price of his own life, followed by Donowit brutally bashing his skull in with a baseball bat, and not catch on this aspect of the movie baffles me.

    I haven’t had a chance to watch IB yet due to my schedule (although I’ve really wanted to see it), but I do take things Film Brain says with a grain of salt (or a table-spoon, which ever). I’m not a huge fan of his, nor do I value his opinion all that much.

    I will say this, I don’t really like Tarantino all that much, I downright hate some of his work, but I have yet to see a QT film as bad as the first Transformers, let alone the new one.

    See 26, 33 and 50 mins into the interview. Tarantino doesn’t consider the ethics or subtexts of what he makes until after he’s made the movie. You take from his movies whatever you want. So those stating that “it’s clearly a satire” may discover things aren’t so clear-cut.

    I still liked District 9 better than either film. Tarantino’s films are all the same basically. Violence, smart ass dialogue, and weird editing. I would have preferred a true story about the Jewish men who were trained by Brittish special forces.

    Tarantino frequently disappoints with his over-budget films. I’m almost willing to say that he would probably make better movies if he didn’t have so much money.

    I dunno.. he just strikes me as way too arrogant and full of himself, Maybe if he wasn’t trying to convince the world of how cool he is, and take a humble pill with some humble pie, and we could have some decent films.

    As of now? Too arrogant. Too spoiled.

    Hell even in Spoony’s review of IB he seems to think the Nazis are all evil scum of the earth and all they did in the moive is dog kicking, guess celebrating the birth of your son makes you EVIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLL and your deserve to die in Spoony’s book, heh.

    Any way FB’s reveiw does have some good point the Basterd part were the weakest parts in the moive, because what they do the the Nazi (as I said most are just normal people) is disturbing, made worst by the fact 80% of the veiwers are rooting for the Basterd (fucking dumbasses)

    Also I found Fredrick Zoller’s snapping near the end to be Grade-A Character Derailment just so you wouldn’t fell sorry for wend he gets shot in the back.

    TF2 was an enjoyable 90 min toy ad with robots fighting, and IB was also good in it’s own way (like I said I personaly don’t like the movie, I can see why other people would)

  • Not a spy

    I believe that inglorious basterds wasn’t that bad. It was a alright film that held together pretty well (up until the ending anyways) and other than the fact the movie wasn’t even about the basterds (despite them being the more interesting characters in the film) it was a pretty entertaining visual experience. Transformers 2 however I have never seen since every single person I know says it’s awful. That combined with Spoony1′s and the small snippets I have seen on the web have insured me that it is pretty bad. Bad vs Alright = Inglorious Basterds wins in my book.

    PS to the dumber: Before you say anything remember that my opinion is biased. Just like everyone’s opinion .

    Spoony is far more talented than Film Brain in every aspect. He is intelligent, funny, entertaining and engages his audience. Film Brain tries too hard and comes off as a pompous jackass.

    Seriously, I’ve seen the scores and it is really stupid how Film Brain ranked an awesome movie lower than Transformers 2. I don’t see any more this year lower than that Micheal Bay shit…well except maybe X-Men Wolverine.

    Everything the film Brian reviews, he seems to try too hard or not hard enough. He does the “quiet scream” reactions. His acted out reactions of what he thinks of movies is poorly executed and pointless. He even copied Doctor Insano with his bad orange wig and crappy glasses. I think the only reason why people suck up to him is because he admins Thatguywiththeglasses site and one mouse click from him and you are gone.

    to be completely honest, i hate Film Brain. but i have to agree with him here. “basterds” was just okay it wasn’t good nor was it bad, it was just okay. and honestly Spoony. i used to be a fan of yours but this isn’t cool, i don’t even like Film Brain but “slap the stupid out of him” simply because he didn’t agree with you. if everyone had the same tastes the world would suck. I liked Transformers 2 and Halloween 2, and you didn’t but i don’t go around saying that you are stupid because you didn’t like them. and really i thought you were better than this. and all of little lap dogs around here calling Film Brain names and shit is immature. So i hope you enjoy surronding yourself with these people who are just kissing your ass. because today, you have lost me as a fan.

    and im gonna miss you and your reviews but, seriously i think you should apologize to Film Brain, and your fans.

    I don’t get why so many people are saying that they have lost all respect for Spoony and will no longer watch his videos. Why is this such a big deal? Everyone has done something obnoxious and arrogant; Spoony just has the misfortune that when he does, it is forever saved on the Internet. If you were offended, you should tell him and then forget about it. Life is too short.

    Wow, there’s some crazy rantings going on. Spoony is awsome and I love film brains reviews too. I don’t watch either to form my own opinions, I watch them to be entertained. I could care less who loves what. Everyone loves different things for different reasons. The only thing that screwed brain up was his numbering system which can cause problems if you aren’t completely consistant. 1 to 5 is too small. 1 to 10 is a better range if your going to use numbers. Lets you be a bit more specific.

    Nobody should take any of this too seriously. Spoony’s pic response was over the top, but it was pretty funny. Now, if we really wanna see him go nuts, give Yor a bad review or talk crap about MST3K. Now we’re talking about line crossing! :D

    Wow, there’s some crazy rantings going on. Spoony is awsome and I love film brains reviews too. I don’t watch either to form my own opinions, I watch them to be entertained. I could care less who loves what. Everyone loves different things for different reasons. The only thing that screwed brain up was his numbering system which can cause problems if you aren’t completely consistant. 1 to 5 is too small. 1 to 10 is a better range if your going to use numbers. Lets you be a bit more specific.

    I haven’t had the opportunity to see either Transformers 2 or Inglorious Basterds, so I can’t say whether or not one is better than the other, but that picture is fucking awesome.

    This is just purely hilarious. “Teh INTERNET IS SERIOUS BUSINESS!!” Guys grow the fuck up, and stop being whiny little bitches with sand in your vaginas. It’s not like Spoony called Film Brain’s mom ” A whore with a pussy loose enough to hide a cow”. He basically said what amounts to playfully calling your friends a “dumbass” when they says something stupid. Yea I watch Film Brains’ reviews, but only to kill the time in between new videos from Doug, Linkara, and Spoony. I’m sorry but Film Brain has about as much business reviewing films as dog that eats throw-up, and shit has writing fine dining articles.Some of his stuff is funny, but after his Equilibrium review (Yes it was silly but in comparison to the shit storm that was Transformer 2 it was a classic. A fucking action fantasy movie doesn’t have to take itself seriously.)I began realizing how often he forces criticism in an attempt to be funny. Inglorious Basterds was a great film, and Film Brains’ amateur criticisms won’t change a goddamn thing.

    I don’t really understand why people flame on Spoony for being mad about Film Brains opinion.

    Isn’t Spoony having is own opinion right now? And for crying out loud, it’s teh interwebs, would anyone take threats seriously?

    Also, teh interwebs is a place of anarchy. We can act like we want to however we want to. We act immature here because it lets us blow of some steam without consequences. Don’t be an idiot and call us immature, we already know it. Teh interwebs is not serious business. It’s anarchy, and we all know what happen to people who call anarchists immature, right? They get hate-mail.

    PS: Spoony already said that he thinks british accents are gay, why is some people so surprised by this?

    I really don’t get why some of you are getting on Spoony for his little “slap him until…” line. I mean, fuck, I know your parents all taught you to not be mean and that we’re all special little snowflakes, but grow up. This is the internet, flaming is just another part of it. It’s not like Spoony said anything really nasty, it was a little jab. Calm the fuck down, you pussies. Sticks and stones, and all the jazz.

    Now, that said, Spoony happens to be my favorite reviewer, but I don’t actually have anything against Film Brain. I think some of his skits are lame, but then I don’t really like any skits, including Dr Insano or Linkara’s 90′s Guy, or any of The Nostalgia Critic’s alternate personas. I just think they’re lame and suffer from “LOLITSSORANDOM”-itis. Film Brain’s certainly funny enough though, and sometimes I agree with him, and sometimes I don’t. I usually agree with Spoony and his style of humor is very much like my own, so I think he is the best of the lot. That’s my opinion, just like it’s FB’s opinion that Transformers 2 is better than Basterds, and just like it’s Spoony’s opinion that’s Brain’s opinion is stupid.

    In short, Kerry, you’re a fucking idiot. As for EonsPast, maybe Spoony and FB are actually friendly and, being friends, they rip on eachother. If not, well, then it’s still up to him to do what he wants and since FB is making public his opinions, he should expect to be critiqued himself.

    I suppose you have a point. I’m not going to say that I’ll stop watching Spoony because one line he said on the internet one time, because that would be stupid. But you said that if FB wants to make his opinions known, he can expect to be critiqued; doesn’t that mean I’m allowed to critique Spoony on his opinion?

    Still, like I said, you may be right. Maybe they are just joking around. Some sarcasm (if that’s what it is) just doesn’t translate to text that well, you know?

    People are calling themselves fans of Spoony, yet they are raging at something like this and saying they won’t watch his videos anymore because he makes posts like this, but then it is quite obvious you just don’t get it, and you are hardly a fan of Spoony if a post like this makes you rage.

    Spoony is just doing this for entertainment, and he created plenty of entertainment from these comments. I can bet he doesn’t even hate Film Brain. Some of you people need to re-assess your definition of ‘fan’, because you obviously aren’t fan enough to understand posts like this.

    Many people have said it before me, but get over it. If you don’t like it, you were never a fan of Spoony, whether you thought you were or not, because this post defines him, and always has.

    Well no matter who they are, anyone who ranks Transformers 2 above Inglorious Basterds deserves to have the stupid slapped out of them. I couldn’t give a crap if they were the nicest people in the world…. I’m not being a Spoony fan-boy, BUT I will NOT condone Michael Bay out-ranking Tarentino.

    It would be the same as saying Alien vs Predator 2 was better than Reservoir Dogs. I’m no-way saying that I.B is in the same league as R.D, but it’s certainly not a horrible film, let alone a horrible Tarentino film.

    It is most definitely NOT in the same league, let alone worse than Transformers 2.

    This argument has gotten way out of control. And I know I am adding fuel to the fire, but ignorance only persists when people who have some semblance of understanding do nothing. I do not see eye-to-eye with Spoony all the time. He has a tendency to appreciate things that seem stuffy, pretentious, and self-righteous; I prefer things that you can look at in one instance as an analytical piece of work or just watch as a cluster of bright colors and funny dialogue. The difference between my disagreements with Spoony and my disagreements with the Film Brain is this: Spoony may nit-pick at something, but at least it has some f**king merit. Film Brain nit-picks at things that, if he had actually paid attention to the movie in the first place, WOULD HAVE MADE FOOKING SENSE!! This is why his opinions have no basis in reality. He has no credibility to say if something is good or bad, better or worse, or make any ranking system for anything. I have not seen Inglorious Bastards (though I want to) nor Transformers 2 (and I know better), so if anyone would like to comment as to MY credentials, note that I did not discuss whether one was better than the other, which means that no one can use that to undermine my opinion at all.

    blitz013, so Spoony doesn’t have a “right to express that opinion without judgment” concerning the wrongness of Film Brain’s ranking? On the basis of opinion, it’s impossible to condemn Spoony without falling into utter hypocrisy. And it is indeed very hypocritical that a site that is so devoted to negativity and criticism such as TGWTG is so strung-up concerning negative comments about their personalities.

    This is one of those cases where there is no logical divide of opinion. This is directly akin to ranking “Epic Movie” higher than “Dr. Strangelove”, it’s an indefensible position that one deserves to get smacked upside the head for expressing.

    Then you should roll out some Stanley Kubrick, James Cameron, Ridley Scott and John Carpenter (though Carpenter is something of a hit-and-miss) until you can tell the difference between quality cinema and the unholy abominations that are the modern Bay-Boll-Friedberg/Seltzer trifecta.

    Even from a mindless action standpoint Bay utterly fails. The only halfway decent movie in that regard he ever produced (and I do mean barely halfway) was The Rock, and I mostly credit that to the talents of Sean Connery and Ed Harris. Michael Biehn is also memorable even in his bit part. Watch Die Hard (hell, even Die Hard 2), Predator (and again, hell even Predator 2), Aliens, the list goes on of examples of genuinely good action movies.

    I do love Carpenter, Cameron, Kubrick, and Scott. But I also like Bay, comparing Bay to Boll is hardly fair, even if you hate Bay, he is still more talented than Boll. I also love Tarantino, but i just though that IB, was not his best showing I love Resevoir Dogs, Kill Bill vol1, and Pulp Fiction.
    and I adore Cameron’s Terminator films :D

    but even Cameron has made some dumb movie’s don’t believe me watch “the Lost Tomb of Jesus” it’s lame even for a documentary, and it’s completely innacurate. my point is even the best film makers make some bad movies some times. and i never said that i liked Transformers 2, better than any of Tarantino’s other works or even any of the film makers you mentioned. all i sadi was i liked it better than IB. just like i like Spoony better than Brain.

    @Caligula

    I clearly had a false impression of you, I apologize for jumping to conclusions. I must concede that Bay is superior to Boll, but a bag of rotten lettuce would be a superior filmmaker to Boll, and similarly I think that even Boll is superior to the Anti-Christs of cinema that are Friedberg/Seltzer. As Spoony often points out, with Boll at least his films usually are laughable in their badness, and the commentary tracks usually rank amongst the funniest things on the planet. With Friedberg and Seltzer… you just know you’ve stepped into Movie Hell.

    And I’m not contesting that James Cameron has made some bad and truly dumb movies, but “The Lost Tomb of Jesus” really only half-counts because James Cameron was only executive producer, it was directed, written and produced by other people. It’s definitely the worst movie he’s worked on, but it doesn’t really qualify as a movie he made. I was actually going to point to his Titanic as a movie that, while not truly “bad” in the sense of “McG bad” or “Paul W. S. Andersen bad”, was in all good conscience not a very good movie. It’s long, tedious, much of the romance plot makes little sense or feels stilted, and the ending just makes no damn sense. Even Kubrick, probably the greatest modern director (Dr. Strangelove is my favorite film of all time, and A Clockwork Orange is up in the top 5, Spartacus and 2001 would definitely go in the top 20), has been known to falter, Eyes Wide Shut being an excellent example of a genius director stumbling over himself.

    And I’m similarly a big Tarantino fan, my favorites are the same three you put up (though, in Kill Bill’s case, he would have done better to just excise all of Part 1 and Part 2 and only left in the fight with Gogo and the Crazy 88, albeit then we wouldn’t see John Carradine’s kickass performance…), I even found quite a bit of merit in Death Proof (let the hate comments commence), and I felt that this movie, while certainly not his best or his “masterpiece”, was a very good and very earnest attempt to recapture the magic he had back when he was making Pulp Fiction.

    They could do a “video crossover”. Collaborate on a script via e-mail, both shoot their sides separately, then have one of them work on editing the two together. Like what NC and AVGN did on a few of their videos where they exchanged insults. It would be a glorious event.

    Don’t you see how hypocritical you all are for dissing on Spoony dissing on someone? It’s his opinion and right to hate someone. No one cares when he hates on Uwe Boll. He’s a human too. Why shouldn’t he hate on Film Brain if he hates something he says? It’s not like he’s even on TV or the radio saying this stuff. Why should you be offended by his opinion on HIS website? What the fuck is wrong with you people?

    I haven’t seen either film, but I’ll bet Transformers is better. Quentin Tarantino is among the worst directors I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t stomach Kill Bill for more than 10 seconds before wanting to throw my television out the window. At least Michael Bay’s films are good if you’re retarded. Tarantino’s films are bad no matter what you do.

    That doesn’t make any sense. It’s okay to like something if you’re retarded, but even if you are retarded you can’t like IB, which you didn’t even see?

    I love how this has just in effect made Film Brain’s attention and awareness to the Spoony public by two fold.
    Moreover, you can actually understand why FB gave Inglorious Basterds the review that he did. I recommend people to first listen to his interview on Transmission Awesome if you haven’t already, where he basically says that one important thing he wants from a movie is character development, which IB rarely has in most of it’s characters. So you can understand his reasoning if he feels so strongly about character development, unlike Spoony (and me for that matter :P) aren’t really that affected by as long as the rest of the movie’s solid.
    Oh yeah I’d choose IB to Transformers 2 any day, but I’m a Tarantino Fanboy. And there a LOT of Tarantino fanboys, just like there are Transformers fanboys. You could see why they liked the second one as it was more robot concentrated, more to what the cartoon series was.
    I’m just wondering if the story would be different if Transformers 2 came out at the same time as Deathproof.
    Overall, I love you Spoony and all that you’ve done BUT YOU COULD’VE BEEN A BIT MORE SUBTLE!!!!! I mean you know how sadistic some of your viewers are to have a chance to rip on FB if you’ve read the comments on this topic.

    He likes Roger Ebert who knows fuck all about film and the only difference between Inglorious Bastards and Transformers 2 was I was intelligent and artistic enough to know Inglorious Bastards would be shit when it got a worse review than the original and was a Tarantino “effort” and also I downloaded Transformers 2 rather than being dumb enough to pay money to watch it. The first was average, fair warning.

    @ James Murray

    Actually, Ebert is just the only critic he throws a bone to, he basically savages him and every other critic. The instant after Spoony says that Ebert is the only professional critic to ever be remotely trustworthy he says, “Don’t let your movie decisions be decided by them, or even by me”.

    And “I was intelligent and artistic enough to know Inglorious Bastards would be shit when it got a worse review than the original” proves just how fucking stupid you are. There is no “original”. There’s an obscure Italian WW2 film called “Inglorious Bastards” from which “Inglourious Basterds” derives its name but otherwise no connection exists. It’s like saying that the third “The Enforcer” with Jet Li was worse than the sequel starring Clint Eastwood, which in turn was not as good as the original starring Humphrey Bogart, when the three movies have nothing at all in common apart from their title. And I’m curious as to what review said it was inferior to the old Italian movie, you cite nothing and I find it hard to believe that any professional critic would attack the movie with such a bizarre comparison.

    Lastly, you watched Transformers 2 of your own volition and have it stored on your hard disk for your viewing pleasure? That is not something I would brag about, as that rather swiftly dumps you into the category of human beings so well represented in the Darwin Awards that most people with a nice thing to say about the new Transformers series belong to. Please crawl back into your hole and stop diluting the general stream of human thought with your worthless opinions.

    Heh, what’s hilarious about this is how seriously so many people are taking this. I like Spoony and Film Brain, this has nothing to do with TGWTG supposed censorship (which, if you’d read the comments on FB’s review, you’d know was just bullshit whinging) and they’re both entitled to their opinions and how they choose to express them is entirely up to themselves. What makes any of you people think that your opinions are any more valid than either of theirs? I have my opinions on both of these movies (they don’t agree with either incidentally), as do we all. By God, learn that anyone who disagree’s with you is not always stupid. Difference of opinion and CONSTRUCTIVE deabate are healthy, not this idiotic flaming. Excuse me, I’m off to laugh at the idiocy of some of these comments again :D

    Fuck yeah, I don't like that kids voice anyway.

    Also IB was great. The way the ending draws parallels with the Nazis laughing at the gratuitous violence on screen within the movie to the real life audience cheering at the carnage and blood shed that quickly follows. Tarintino is a great manipulator.

  • TCBLB

    I like Film Brain, but I suddenly just lost a bit of respect for him. A little anyway. IB was great but I did feel cheated going into it thinking it was going to be Brad Pitt and company gutting and killing “Natsees” and instead that was only so much of the movie, whereas Transformers 2 was exactly what it said on the tin, “Transformers”

  • http://www.facebook.com/hbentonjr Henry Benton Jr

    I did like Inglorious Basterds, but I do agree with the Film Brain's points, but they didn't ruin the movie for me as much as it did for him.

  • http://twitter.com/thereals0beit Andrew YouDontKnow

    Going back to this (as im reading your blog backwards, WITH SCIENCE)

    Film Brain seems like a jackass, 4/5 for district 9, 2.5/5 for inglorious basterds, 3.5/5 for transformers 2?

    I think he needs to either revamp his points system or just kill himself.
