    This was a review of near MST3K proportions. Brilliant in every way. Thank you so very kindly.

    I want Charlie to have a symposium with Ebert and they can blow our minds (if we have minds left after T:ROTFL) with dueling and/or cooperating reviews.


    Srsly, Ebert needs to see this, he'd love it.

    Only read about half of it to avoid spoilers, but this piece is tremendously well written! Seriously - I hope you got paid for this one.


    Also, reading the name abbreviated of "ROTF" makes me think it says "Transformers: ROTFL" or "Transformers: ROTFLOL" or any variation thereof.

    Yeah, um, I have to add to the "best review ever" chorus because THIS IS THE BEST F-KING REVIEW EVER. It's so awesome that I censored myself to be taken more seriously.

    Oh, and I forgot to mention:


    This is quite possibly one of the most amazing reviews I have ever read for a movie that probably doesn't deserve it. Good stuff, CJ.
