Hollywood and fine reviewer gave men in black 3 and rock of ages a much higher rating than tdkr

Movies.com reviewer who gave tdkr 3/5 gave battleship 4.5/5

Oh hai guys lets discredit this reviewer because he rated this other movie higher.

Come on, son.

 

[effzee]

Believe it or not, and this goes for trailers too, it is believed that most people want to know what they are getting before they get it. So we get trailers which show the entire movie in broad strokes, and spoiler-laden reviews.

People WANT to know that Alfred assumes the mantle of Batman after Bruce dies of auto-erotic asphyxiation.

Believed by who? The people who market these movies?

I also want to know enough about a movie before I invest money into a ticket, but not the actual plot.

 

[Jarmel]

Yes we are. Some reviewers just like the attention.

Others just want to see the world burn. Yes, yes, I know however to discredit someone because they liked what you deemed a crappy movie more than your favorite is somewhat ridiculous. This of course assuming that it was even the exact same person doing both reviews.

 

[Tookay]

I don't get why as a reviewer you would spoil. The secrecy about the plot is well publicized by now, the movie isn't out yet, so why would you spoil? The review's purpose is to convince readers to either go see it or not, not to ruin the plot.

On one hand, I agree, but on the other, I do think that the spoiler-heavy reviews are the better written ones (except Time pointlessly throwing in quotes from the film), because they lay out the reasoning for their conclusions.

Yes.

You can tell why someone is a good critic, consistent and a typical top rt critic, some tho just get personal and or are severely consistent and out for page views.

You missed the glaring point that ummm..the reviewer has ACTUALLY seen the movie while the poster is defending something he hasnt.

I've been really nervous to enter this thread recently. Dem spoilers man.. Anyways, couldn't be more excited for the premiere!

Also : first post on GAF! I'm the happiest camper around right now.

Guys stop responding in anything other than quotes from BB and TDK.

We've been pretty restrained here with the spoilers. There was one douche, but I don't see that happening again.

Welcome to GAF!

Welcome. Now get posting so that you can shed the "junior" stigma ASAP!

Now I'm sure the day won't come when this thread no longer needs quotes.

Which one has the Joker in it? I like that one. He is cool.

That's a separate issue though and something kinda inherent about critiquing film reviews before the movie is out.

Ever dance with the Sculli in the pale moon light?

Isn't that the fastest way to get banned. Just lurk for 3 months

 

[OneEightZero]

Ever dance with the Sculli in the pale moon light?

Whoa. I just realized Sculli is banned.

I was wondering why we weren't reading constant bickering. ^_^

Dark Man Begins, I think?

He's in this thread, so the fastest way

Spoiler

and also the quickest way to get unbanned

would be the c-word.

Did they perma him?

When a poster grows too wild, a purging ban is inevitable and natural.

It's funny to hear that from you.

It's funny to hear that from you.

They tried banning me. It did not work.

 

[planar1280]

Did they perma him?

Hope not, regardless of that one mistake and his differing views, he is probably one of the most entertaining and fun posters at gaf. Mod hopefully should bring him back before movie releases

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Solo knows how it's done.

 

[Tookay]

I can't wait until TDKR comes out and we have new quotes to abuse. I feel like the well's dried up.

 

[SuperAndroid17]

I guess the only critics to believe on Rotten are the ones with the

Top Critic* icon.

Dont care about the rest

how long was sculli's ban?

I bought the well.

It seemed neater.

 

[Inferno313]

I'm not sure.

Was it EvilLore?

I remember reading an interview with Zemeckis, about 13 years ago, and he says about as much when it comes to spoilers in a trailer. Remember that What Lies Beneath trailer...

"To do our art we need people to go see our movies," explains the film's director Robert Zemeckis, a man who knows a thing or two about box-office hits with Forrest Gump and the Back to the Future movies on his resume.

"In a perfect world, you wouldn't have to show a scene like that in the trailer. But that's not the world we live in. ... Nobody wants to be surprised anymore."

how long was sculli's ban?

No idea. My guess is a month, which puts him back here post-release.

I thought you were batgaf's hero.

They said you were the chosen one.

Why did you do this DM. How can you live in denial that TDKR actually might have weak villains?

 

[Good Job Bob]

Sculli's ban seems pretty long for something so...off the cuff.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Was it EvilLore?

You should be as afraid of him as I am.

Now, you think because we've gone through every line in the movie, you know about the quoteless side of life, but you don't. You've never tasted desperate...

You haven't thought it through. You haven't thought about using Rachel's quotes! BANG!

That Say it! line was amazing.

Sure was! I'm going to marry Harvey Dent. I love him, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him.

There may still be some life in the quotes after all...

The guy who is getting eviscerated on RT for his negative TDKR review.
