Oh, and hating someone because of their opinions sucks
how is the tittle missleading? and I dont hate him because of his opinions. I have diffrent reasons

Do you know him personally? What else is there to him besides his opinions? He's fat, or was at least (I haven't seen how he looks now and have heard he's losing weight), but that's a bad reason to hate someone, too.


The title is misleading because it contains movies that he doesn't hate. The qualifications for being in the book seemed to be under ***, but he's given fairly decent reviews to **1/2 movies, and a couple of ** movies

I cant stand Roger Ebert because he is an arrogant dick. His commentary ion the dark city dvd could not have been more pretentious or self-absorbed, and he believes his opinions are more valid than other critics because he wrote a movie.....


Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.....

I can write softcore pron in my sleep, that doesnt make my opinion on movies more valid than the next guys...

Nothing TOO terribly personal against him though, i hate all critics. their job is to complain. I think levelling an opinion is not an honest way to make a living. I do that shit for free all the time.

Yeah my girlfriend pointed this movie out to me today, while we were in FYE. I passed on it, but now maybe I should have got it. It was only $9.99 Instead I got, Horror Classics 6 movies: Night of the Living Dead, Dementia 13, Satan's Dracula, and others...
I also saw Drive-In Movies: 'Blade in the Dark' and 'Macabre' which I also passed on, but nowI'm wishing I hadn't.

What do you guys think, did I make two big purchasing mistakes?

How the fuck should I know probably!
Why? Because it's a brilliant film, it's so funny, and the soundtrack kicks fucking ass!

Yeah I don't usually agree with the critics. There have been alot of great movies that I think the majority of the public have overlooked, just because of the critics' reviews
