I would wholeheartedly agree with this statement if the spelling and grammar were in order. As it stands, I can only agree with its implication.
but the spelling is perfect! and the grammar is just fine.
...*swish*
Sincerest apologies about the spelling claim. As you said, it is perfect. I'm just way too damned used to seeing bad grammar and spelling together. That's my mistake, and I am sorry.
But the grammar is not just fine, unfortunately. First off, there's the lack of proper capitalization. Let me fix the capitalization while maintaining everything else so that you may see the error.
"Wow, these are look really good... The costumes at least. Can't say the same about the people."
Technically, there are three grammar mistakes, but two are perfectly acceptable given the informal nature of it all. However, take a look at this.
"...these are look really good..."
This is wrong, plain and simple. It could work if it was, "these are looking really good," or, "these look really good," but as it is, it sounds akin to Engrish.
As you can probably tell, I'm kind of a nut when it comes to linguistics. I mean no offense in pointing this stuff out, by the way.
EDIT: Had to fix a typo. And yes, I realize the delicious irony in that.
