I get like that whole "I wish there was more" feeling when I think of my favorite movies, Specifically American Beauty, but for him to bring a completely random unrelated movie into the mix to try and explain his reasoning makes absolutely no sense and I call shenanigans.
At least with American Beauty I have the original script to back up my reasoning for a wish for more

What was his example, Titanic?
Sorry, I need to start quoting more, I have this bad habit of randomly posting and just hoping you know what Im referring to. I meant the boy who compared Wonka and Clockwork Orange, simply because he wished there was more to Wonka?
Ohhh, never mind. I cannot read.
I watched American Beauty today. My mom is obsessed with that movie.I get like that whole "I wish there was more" feeling when I think of my favorite movies, Specifically American Beauty, but for him to bring a completely random unrelated movie into the mix to try and explain his reasoning makes absolutely no sense and I call shenanigans.

I get the argument, too, but to apply it to motherfucking Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, come on? What did he want, to see Wonka find out Shia's his son and have a jungle adventure?
I did like Indy IV, too. Good experience both times I saw it, albeit for different reasons each time.
QFT.I can only cite one movie that I've seen in the past few years where I really was like "that was too fucking short" when it ended, and that was "Good Night and Good Luck". Sure, when you love a film, you want more of it, that's natural...but this film just felt like it ended too abruptly for me.

Wait...
...shit. Ashley... are you my mom?
He brings up comparisons in most of his reviews, which always irks me. I can see comparing a film because of its director, writer, or actor's body of work or similar film, but to bring up something else entirely is ridiculous.
My reviews weren't the best either, so I deleted them and only write ones that are worth showing people.
Different reasons, eh?
"Breaking Glass" is too short. Warrants mentioning.

What site are these reviews from again?
The only film I've reviewed recently was Knocked Up. Hardly cinematic genius, and not much to it.

Now I'm really creeped out about those times I hit on youDid you NOT read that letter I sent you?
Well, any subpar reviewer, in any genre, only frames things in terms of referencing other films, because that's an easy/lazy way out. When you lack the verbal arsenal one needs to convey your thoughts, and/or you are devoid of any real creativity of your own, you need to resort to shortcuts like easy comparisons.
Yes on both counts.
