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.

	Not to start wank, but yes, there is an art to making 3D or CGI animation. It takes just as much skill to animate and color objects such as hair, clothes and the human figure in 3D as it does in 2D. It's not like you simply push a button and it instantly generates a character or motion. There's a lot of work needed to get the computer to behave the way you want. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh yeah, I know there's an art and that it's hard to do and it takes artists and lots of time. Like I said, I'm just not privy to it so I don't see it and can't really appreciate it other than in a special feature. I CAN paint and draw so I tend to appreciate that more. (Reply to this)(Parent)
