# in theory the watchmen adaptation shouldn't be subject to the same stupid misconceptions
that a kids film you watched as a kid would be as good as a kids film you watched as an adult

# *invokes the Tim Bisley / Bilbo Bagshot argument*

# The tim bisley argument is based on the fact that Simon Pegg stupidly spent £2000 flying to New York to see it
So because the family film he went to see wasn't worth the £2000 admission (and what film is?) the film was therefore rubbish and owed him something - which he claimed in slagging it off.

I like Mr Pegg, but his spreading of bile and hate over Phantom Menace is ridiculous and due to his own stupidity entirely.

I also blame this reaction for why the next 2 were stupidly "adult" and boring in an attempt to appease the grown up fans.

# yeah I heard that story
it was rather silly of him.. But I still enjoy watching Star Wars these days, it's a genuinely good film in a way that TPM clearly isnt.

meh, my 2p :)
