Anyway, I imagine I have now become one of the aforementioned morons or douche bags for pointing this out, and I'm going to follow it up with the observation that it isn't survival of the fittest so much as a people being brave under the anonymity of the internet hammering their opinions over the head of another. You are, of course, entitled to your opinion. So is the other guy. The fact that in the time I've been here I've seen more comments about how stupid people are or their opinions are than actual discussion about movies is very telling.
Enjoy yourselves. This obviously isn't the place for me.
I'm pretty sure we've all been subjected to some sort of put down on this forum, or any forum for that matter. It usually happens when you just start and don't know the social dynamic of the site or how people react to anything less than an intellegent, well put together statement with perfect spelling and grammar.

The important part is that you learn to suck it up, takes stabs at other new posters and gain peoples respect. :D
