Entry tags:fandom_wank's thoughts on yaoi, movie wank, pixar, reviews, someone is wrong on the internet!, stop sharing your thoughts, writers are often pompous douches

Wank machine keeps on rollin'
1. Pixar makes incredible, mind-blowing third movie in Toy Story series.
2. Rotten Tomatoes logs over 130 reviews - all positive.
3. Toy Story 3 gets it's first (so far, only) bad reviews.
4. Internet explodes. (Also here.)

The wank seems to be focused on Armond White's review, as he is known for seemingly giving any review that goes against the general consenus. (He inexplicably seems in favour of Transformers 2, for instance.) He also doesn't appear to have actually watched the movie (identifying Hamm as a villain.) His negative review was actually predicted by a number of commenters in this earlier article, asking readers to predict where Toy Story 3 would end up on the Tomatometer rating.

It's all very dramatic, with wank in every corner. But of course, the most important Toy Story-related argument is and always will always be: Buzz/Jessie or Woody/Jessie?*


*Anyone's who's seen the movie will know the right answer to this.

*adds TS3 on her to-see list after A-Team*

That's my way of saying I'm avoiding spoilers if I can so I can't read the report.

A-Team was way, way better than the trailers made it look.

Oh, I definitely wanna see it. It's the love of my childhood. I have pics of me in camouflage overalls and a red Mr. T sweatshirt. I still have them somewhere, I think.

A-Team was awesome. My husband and I will probably see it in theaters again, and we rarely do that.

I just need to round up someone to go with me. I'm fine doing things by myself but going to movies can be boring cause you can't discuss anything.

Thirded that it was awesome, and I never even really watched the show.

I'll admit the trailers had me at hello with the tank.

I'm a simple, simple girl when it comes to actiony movies.

I've started watching the show in reruns (it's on some network called Centric.) But after seeing the trailer, I said "oh, I have to see this! Explosions! Guns! Liam Neeson!"

It was really a fun movie. It captures the spirit of the original, implausibility and all, so in that way, it's a very successful venture.

Neeson is just...my yumminess. Just saying. I watched him on that Bravo show with Andy and went "oooh." Yes, he made a Bravo show good. Not that I haven't been drooling over him since I was like 14.

I love lots of actiony movements. I used to watch Jurassic Park and Die Hard before bed.

Might explain why I'm twisted mentally.
