I really can't laugh about it. If you aren't able to understand and admire the art of movie making, don't talk. If you think you're cool if you make fun of great movies you're wrong!
You suck!!!

Maarten: Well, if you can't understand the difference between art and commerce, then maby you shouldn't be allowed to breathe? How do you manage to walk past 10 commercial posters each day, without buying everything they display? If you think hollywood is art, i guess you're the kind of person who finds spiritual inspiration within an episode of That 70's show. In other words, your just another mindless dickhead consumer jackass who is hated in secret by everyone. So FUCK off.
