Film reviews today: am I the only one disappointed?

[retina_restoration]

Lol they haven’t done any such thing. They promote themselves. That’s about it. And on top of it all everything about the naked guy is like nails on a chalk board. Enjoy.

And what have YOU contributed to the pool of public knowledge??! All I am hearing is a lot of b*tching about how bad everyone else's contributions are.

In these cases, 'contribution' may be a little generous.

Self promotion more like.

It's disturbing that some cannot tell the difference.

Well yeah what I’ve seen is poor quality on all fronts and I don’t think these people are “contributing” (?) anything. They are doing it basically to promote themselves, and I don’t need to have a competing YouTube channel of my own or list my contributions as some sort of prerequisite to calling this junk what it is. You see it differently. That is ok.

With an open mind I’d really be interested to hear you detail what is so problematic about the various YouTube reviewers recommended above. Because your comments above come across very light on insight and very heavy on judgement and therefore they read as a little conceited, which I’m sure isn’t the intention.

It’s been hashed out in more detail in other threads (this isn’t the first) and I’m not going into it yet again. It’s a minority opinion, heavy on judgement, and I think it is reasonable. Point taken though. Next time this general topic comes up I’ll stay out of it.

When you look at Internet content about film, you can treat it as glass half full or half empty. I tend to appreciate the things that I don't know and interesting perspective from other people. Of course there are biased and even wrong information, and we all err often.

The so-called "old farts" is not really about age, but more about a mindset. In which we believe we already know everything, we are always correct and the past is always better.

I will now shut up and get back to printing.

At what point does someone's contribution become worthy of acknowledging it, or at least the attempt someone made?
