I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Joey is sensitive about everything. Go back and look at how butt hurt he gets whenever someone insults this movie.

Hello, friend.

I'm not sure we've posted much together. I'm "Joey." How are you? I think you've got me all backwards, pal. While I do identify as a sensitive person, I wouldn't say that I'm sensitive about this movie at all. Butt hurt? That's another completely stupid expression. But I hope you'll find that I am not at all "butt hurt" by anyone insulting this movie. As I've said before in this thread, the movie itself, as a film, isn't great. It's fun and I found it entertaining and more importantly very important to the landscape of cinema. But I certainly don't care if others dislike or even hate the film. Opinions are opinions and nothing more. Whether or not any of you jabronies likes this movie is no skin off my sack, friend. People like different things, and thank god for that, amirite?

Anyway, I hope we can continue to post cordial manner as we move forward. I look forward to having fun posting with you and building a relationship as strong as the one I have with Ruddo and LV and trag and TVG (all posters who didn't like the film and have very strong opinions that differ from mine).

Be well.
