Nothing wrong with Slate loosening up and trying to be silly - there's enough staid and stoic - this piece can be silly. I also just love the piece itself - Summary Judgment is my favorite - in 3 minutes you get a good, clear digest of what the reviews are.</description></item><item><title>movie reviews better</title><link>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/thread/2942136.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 28 Jun 2009 15:01:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8e55aff1-63ee-4857-a1e9-69fccb83d317:2942136</guid><dc:creator>swimtwobirds</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/thread/2942136.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=2168491&amp;PostID=2942136</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;not earth shattering comment, but they're much better. he's turned the zaniness down a few notches and has now entered convivial territory - reminding rolling stone about the hottie and the nottie, not to mention battlefield earth, was a good close. he should feel free to call out reviews that are well off beam. some of the reviews for transformers are insanely vitriolic- to the point where, perversely, I just have to see the thing.. if only to find out where i fall on the hate curve.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the testicles and blackface transformers are jawdroppingly weird mind you. I wonder does bay listen to wagner. &lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
