Sad little king of a sad little website. So much easier ridiculing someone else's work than coming up with something original. I agree with Knibblet - let's leave him to his anonymity.

Ironically, Sony has actually taken crap for quoting this creep as an actual movie reviewer.
Him and the non-existant "david manning" just love to gush on and on about certain studios wannabe films, and can be counted on to do so without even viewing them.
Consider well who he 'works' for, directly or indirectly - in fact, although no names were named, Sony also caught hell for posting 'reviews' by studio personnel, and then consider which movies he's bashing.
He's a desperate wanna-be interested in becoming a professionally paid sycophant for the industry (which 90% of movie reviewers are, lets be honest here) and willing to kiss as much fanny as that takes.
I have little respect for most reviewers because as a general rule, they NEVER come down on even the worst movies with both boots because they don't want to offend the studio and lose all the free goodies....
Of course he's gonna go riptide on Serenity, he probably 'hated' Boondock Saints too, because they weren't proper "formula".
Sad little king of a sad little hill, petty thug with delusions of standing... and the sad part is, if he kisses enough tail, they probably WILL hire him, ain't that just warped ?
How else you think most reviewers get hired, pffttt!

We vomit effusively in thy general direction!

not to hijack a thread but does anyone know what movies will be coming out at the same time as serenity? I'm curious to see what we will be up against.

Won't it be fun just to archive his little bit of spleen and then break it out again when the BDM is hugely successful. Guys like this change their tune to appear to be cool and all knowing. When he gushes all over himself to praise "Serenity", bust this out and make him sniffle all the way to the virginity section of Spencer's Gifts.
I like the way you think Knibs.
I agree. We should just keep right on converting new people w/ the DVDs, get them interested in the BDM and do all we can to fill seats at the movie. Then, when the BDM is a Big Damn Success, we can watch naysayers like this motherless son of a Reaver eat crow.

I've been watching this site for a while, and everything they say about Serenity has always been negative. It really irks me. I like most of this site, but that reviewer is an asshat. Plain and simple. Bashing something he hasn't even seen. Go figure.

Little nerdlings!?! LITTLE NERDLINGS!?!?!
Is that supposed to imply we're not full nerds? I beg to differ. If anything we are uber nerds, sir. We are the ones in on the ground floor of the new smash hit scifi franchise. We are the ones wearing the home made shirts, hats, coats, etc. This guy obviously doesn't know what he's talking about!

I know this is a bit nerdish, but then I am a Nerdling I suppose...
3287 votes were cast for Serenity, 93% of them gave it a 5 "I'll be there on opening night" = 3056 people. 66 people gave it a 4* rating.
I really, really, really think we should NOT react to this guy. He has prolly seen how the Browncoats unite and react, and is hoping to get himself a bit of publicity.
Let's not give him the satisfaction!
I agree with Knibblet.

God, these people just amaze me; these mindless drones who consider anything with a modicum of creativity and no connection to reality television or sports as an object of ridicule. Has this allegedly intelligent person even SEEN the movie, or is he just so broken and bitter by having no sense of what true storytelling is that he can't be bothered to alter his already narrow vision?
To this fool, I have just one thing to say, and while I won't send it to him and "feed the troll", I hope the sentiment is shared by my fellow browncoats:
Sir, and I use that title in the loosest way, few people are capable of proving themselves to be a narrow-minded, disrespectful imbecile in such a complete way as you have, so I congratulate you for your achievement. You are truly a model for jack*sses everywhere. I hope, with all the power a heart and soul can generate, that you are proven completely wrong when Serenity premieres in theaters, so that we, the Browncoats of the world, can turn to you, point our fingers of shame and ridicule, and laugh endlessly and heartily. Until such time, close that garbage shooter you call a mouth and sit in your dark corner, and stay out of our way lest you be shamed yet again, you lonely, bitter little half-man, you.
Yup, I think that just about does it.

I think this guy needs some adage education. Something along the lines of, I don't know, let's see, how about:
"Better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
Yep, that'll work. ;)

After reading some of his other posts, I've decided that he's not worth a piece of my mind.
If being a high school teacher has taught me anything, he may be itching for a fight, so punching back may be a twisted kind of reward. I have some students who love getting attention when they misbehave in class and it's almost a badge of honor when they get disciplined.
