*update* I was just reading through some of the comments made on the above articles and the writer (Tyro) is getting pretty scrutinized for voicing constructive criticism on some of these films. I agree that these are all great films and it does seem like he’s coming down pretty hard on some of them, but grow up people! Nothing gets better from praise, criticism is what can make a difference. Even if you don’t agree with his over all opinion there’s still TONS to take away from these articles.
