Snobs. Honestly, many of the people who read this space – and certainly the twerp who writes it – are in some small part a movie snob. We all have some sort of movie that we feel is beneath us, something we won’t waste our time on…be it an action flick based on a comic…
We Don’t Care
The information age is an amazing thing. It allows anyone who wants to the opportunity to climb up on the soapbox and scream their opinions to the masses (guilty, your honour).
