Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I'll accept your intent, but let's get the impression straight.

It does come across as condescending when you insult the informed opinions of others, even if you do it indirectly. Allow me this hypothetical scenario: If Troy says "I like this film series and agree with the general concensus that these are masterpieces for the ages" and then Audiophilander comes along and says "...the stories are predictable and lightweight children's fare" then I've either intentionally or inadvertantly insulted the viewer's tastes.

See what I mean?

In other words, it's one thing to be critical based on reasonable criteria which assesses a film's merit based on personal criteria (i.e., pacing, plot, character interpretation, effects, etc.), but entirely another to be judgmental in a way that ridicules those that enjoy the films (i.e., calling the series "...lightweight children's fare").

Have a pleasant holiday; cheers,
AuPh
