Yeah it's a joke.

A more appropriate question would be: what shitty action movie does LV think is NOT a masterpiece?

...I really like Lethal Weapon 4.

LV, what do you think of the sound mixing in cannonball run 2?

jessica chastain is on letterman. hope you aren't missing this.

Hey LV, don't you think it's more than a little dishonest to misrepresent movies that you perceive are out of sync with your own, rather rigid beliefs as something like "bad writing" or "cynical"?

And as a follow up, would you agree that you are a terrible person and the enemy of real art, and perhaps humanity in general?

I agree. We've been agreeing far too much, lately.

Hey, Burt, don't you think it's more than a little presumptuous to say I'm "misrepresenting" movies simply because you look at them differently than I do?

And as a follow up, would you agree that acting like a dick and resorting to personal attacks over movie opinions is the enemy of real discourse about art?

No and certainly no.

I'm sorry, LV. you're not a terrible person. Though I do have an aversion to reviewers who refuse to judge a work by its own merits, there is something else thats been bothering me and I need to get it off my chest...

You see, I always thought of myself as the Trash Movie King of RM, and I was proud of it. and I was good at it too. I love all kinds of shitty movies. And a contrarian! Boy I could start flame wars with the best of them.

But then you came along, with your love for both Michael Bay AND Adam Sandler, and I was cast aside and forgotten. I mean, sure Armageddon was kinda fun in a dopey sort of way, but come on! how can I be expected to compete with someone who thinks Godzilla was the movie of 2014?

I just feel like I've lost my identity. Now I'm just some creepy old guy with a mustache. I'm nobody. I might as well just leave forever.

Wow, thanks, Burt. Didn't expect that from you. I know you're partially joking, but I appreciate it all the same.

Clearly we should be teaming up here, don't you think?

I wish we could, but there can be only one Trash King.
