And I thought this would at least contain a reference to the C&D sent to an unrelated press event (whose name escapes me) over the use of "Comic-Con".Worgen said:Hmm, oddly enough from the title of this I thought it would be about sexual harassment at Comicon since I've been hearing about about that lately.
Actually, he IS a critic; he's getting paid to criticize movies, and whatever stupid reasons you find to disagree with him or belittle his opinion, that's not going to change. So YOU GET OVER IT!youji itami said:Bob your not a film critic your a youtube personality that a small website started to employ at best, GET OVER IT.
You have to remember that Bob is extremely biased in this particular instance. He adores the MCU and upholds it as a force of good in both cinema and the world, so it's only natural that he views people who criticize the MCU as "snobby film elitists" or "(wannabe) old-guards", because they rail against this popular thing that he adores.contla said:I've never seen one of these people Bob was talking about.

A perfect example would be Jeff Wells, of Hollywood Elsewhere fame.contla said:I've never seen one of these people Bob was talking about. They're like Dodo's to me. I know they existed but I've never seen one.
I went to his twitter and Bob was the only person who I follow who follows him . And I follow about 500 people so I guess it's really Isolated to Bob's "niche"(?) but that's the most of the internet anyway.Sylocat said:A perfect example would be Jeff Wells, of Hollywood Elsewhere fame.contla said:I've never seen one of these people Bob was talking about.

He makes capsule reviews, which is criticism-lite. That's not a put-down, by any means, I happen to think he does quite well given the limitations of his format.MB202 said:Actually, he IS a critic; he's getting paid to criticize movies, and whatever stupid reasons you find to disagree with him or belittle his opinion, that's not going to change.

Bah, ninja'ed was about to ask him how much less he could care...kurupt87 said:
He explaied it a bit already hereTriaed said:I want to know more about how Miller's Batman and the Death of Superman are creaky relics of eras and trends that nearly destroyed their medium!
Yeah "I could care less" means there is some caring going on. However "Like I could care less" actually means the same thing as saying "I couldn't care less" because of the inferred "but I couldn't". So while Bob said "I could care less", "like I could care less" has actual meaning.templar1138a said:Meh. I've never much cared about the opinions of film critics. Oh, and Bob, the phrase is "I couldn't care less." To say you could care less means that you DO care.
