Well hello,
So at first I was gonna write: “Fuck you, Mark Palermo! If you’re so keen on what makes a good movie, why don’t you go make one yourself?!”, but then I thought… so negative! What’s up with that? So instead it’s more like this:
I’ve been reading the Coast for 4 years now, and the one thing that still gets me is how negative the movie reviews are. Mark, I know a lot of movies suck. Seriously! But instead of telling us what movies we shouldn’t go to, why not tell us which movies we should attend? It’s just a suggestion. Butterflies! Rainbows! Happy thoughts! I want to read “this movie was better than six handjobs” in next week’s Coast!

PS, why do the CD reviews read like poetry competitions? Just pickin’, heheh.
