: : : I copied this from the windows media player archive of music and artists information section. Get ready to get pissed off...
: : : "Not only was Mallrats a miserable second movie from Kevin Smith, the director of wildly funny Clerks, but the soundtrack to the film is a wretched collection of alternative by-the-numbers. With the notable exception of Elastica's sinewy, wirey "Line Up," the soundtrack coasts by without any energy, serving up a large number of faceless grunge and funk-metal bands. The record is filled with macho music without any muscle, spiked by snippets of inane dialogue, which only confirms what a depressing, disappointing experience Mallrats is."

: : : What the fuck is this cocksmoker snort'in?!!?!
: : : Either this guy has half a retarded brain or no sense of humor whatsoever because this is the worst excuse to a review I have heard since Bill Clinton said he didn't "inhale" on the joints. Thoughts anyone???

: : *ahem*
: : This is what gets me: when people get angry because someone doesn't like what they like. There are certain types of people out there that go OUT OF THEIR WAY to pick little-known music/movies/whatever for the sole purpose of being DIFFERENT. And you SUCK because you've never heard of their music/movie/whatever. Yet, if you, too, are a fan of their music/movies/etc., you're trendy. You're a follower. You're a fanboy.
: : Now, to cover my ass, I'm not saying that the fans who post here like VA stuff for this reason. But, to a lesser extent, the same rule applies. I see people trashing each other on this board all the time for being "fucking pimply-faced fanboy"s, or for being out of the loop ("when's Clerks2 coming out?" "LOSER!").
: : Point? Stephen Thomas Whateverhisnameis can have his own opinion. I have mine, and you have yours. Save your anger for when people PUSH their opinions on you; that's when you have a right to be resentful. Differences are good, because life would bite if everyone were the same.
: : Now, everyone grab hands and sing~!
