    "God only knows what is to happen. I see nothing impossible in that supposition. And I see things wonderfully contrived sometimes to make us happy. Where could they find such objects as in America for the exercise of their enchanting art? Especially the lady, who paints landscapes so inimirably. She wants only subjects worthy of immortality to render her pencil immortal. " --Thomas Jefferson, A Dialogue Between The Head and The Heart

    CRITICS PAN NEW J. LO FLICK GIGLI

    Movie reviews in such venerable rags as The New York Times and Newsweek have never bore a closer resemblance to satire newspaper The Onion's poison pen synopses of cinematic stupidity. Nearly every movie critic worth his salt--and popcorn--devoted countless newsprint inches to the flogging of the new Ben Affleck/Jennifer Lopez film "Gigli," which is supposedly pronounced "Geely," but who cares? is this blog's position on the subject.

    Never has a movie earned such abysmal reviews...this naturally evokes in the modern moviegoer a morbid curiosity that will ultimately lead thousands to watch this movie just to see for themselves how bad it really is. If this blog must endure the viewing of this tripe, it will undoubtedly treat you loyal readers with a minute-by-excruciating-minute critique. The Voice of Reason. Wasting $10 so you don't have to.
