View Full Version : Scott Holleran is a tool

Scott Holleran from boxofficemojo.com is a basket case. So I went to that website today seeing if any early Friday estimates were in and posted on the front page was his review for THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: PRINCE CASPIAN.
Here's his review:
The four Narnia children are back in the next installment of Disney's and Walden Media's Christian-themed series, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, based on the C.S. Lewis novels. I hated the first movie, which I thought was a boring slice of propaganda. I expected to hate this one, too.
The good news is that Caspian is less horrifying and more logical, which is to say more linear—this is religious allegory and none of it makes sense—with an exciting opening and a galloping escape into the woods by the handsome young prince, Caspian (Ben Barnes). The bad news is that Prince Caspian is beside the point in a movie that bears his name; the quartet of British children return to Narnia and slowly suck the air out of the movie.
No longer selfish Edmund (Skandar Keynes, who can act) is still the only one who thinks, saving the day several times from the villains, who aren't nearly as evil as the wicked White Witch. She does make a memorable if irrelevant appearance and, when she does, it is a jolt of energy—her character is at least coherent.
Eldest Peter (William Moseley), who competes with Caspian, continues to lead the entire family—who remain parentless in the real world—into danger by all but forcing the Pevensie children into helping others, which repeats the theme that one's moral duty is to sacrifice one's self. Youngest child Lucy (Georgie Henley) is again running around looking for Aslan the Christlike lion (voiced for ten seconds by Liam Neeson) who died and was resurrected in the first picture, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. One can practically play Count-the-Crucifixion images.
After Caspian escapes into the forest and bonds with several creatures, including the movie's comic relief, a dwarf (Peter Dinklage, sputtering some fine lines), he meets the Pevensies and falls for the middle girl, Susan (Anna Popplewell). They unite the outlawed Narnians—several hundred years have passed—in scenes that recall Ewoks and rebels in Return of the Jedi and they band against baddies that resemble Spanish Conquistadors (wasting the talents of actors Sergio Castellitto and Pierfrancisco Favino).
"I think it's time we found out what's going on," one character boldly ventures, saying out loud what must be on every 11-year-old's mind at this point in a glacially-paced exercise in taking man down a notch. Caspian is noticeably anti-human, with anthropomorphized fur balls spewing hateful thoughts about man, who must kneel before animal and nature—Caspian hugs more trees than Al Gore—introducing the faith of environmentalism into the series.
During a surprise nocturnal attack on the evil king's castle, previously unseen beings come to the rescue. Intelligent Edmund suddenly fumbles like a fool and cocky, unlikable Peter is humbled—humility is portrayed as a top virtue, natch—and Caspian, reducing its title character to an emasculated teen idol, careens toward its Judeo-Christian message that reality is unknowable and all one can do is kneel, pray and submit to God.
God has a cameo, too, yielding an unintentionally laughable scene riffing off Evan Almighty in which hordes of humans are slaughtered in His vengeful wrath. He's big, brawny and bearded, in a familiar likeness, and the turn is a hilarious bit that tops the White Witch's flamboyance in Lion, Witch and Wardrobe.
Aslan roars, English youths prattle and poor Ben Barnes as Caspian registers a zero on the adventure scale, though it's not his fault—God and the faith-based Pevensie clan steal his thunder. Little Lucy still trots from corpse to corpse administering—selectively, it should be observed—her magic potion, which, apparently, only she is able to distribute. She is not exactly merciful but she is consistent with the gist of fantastic Narnia: the cult of the arbitrary.
Did he ever think of just sitting down and enjoying the film for what it was. If he didn't like it, that would be cool. He would obviously have been wrong, because it's a pretty sweet flick, but he's open to discuss his flawed opinion. But he gets into this religious bullshit that just isn't true. And if you really want a good laugh, search through his articles and read his THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST article.

Well the simple truth is me, like most people, have the common belief that our opinon can't be wrong. What I say goes in my mind, I don't get my opinion changed by some joker on the internet who has the total opposite. My opinon is abolute truth and can never be wrong. And it really pisses me off that Holleran, reads that much into the story to somehow get all these religious undertones that just aren't there.

And Prince Caspian doesn't have religious undertones? Read up on the Christian themes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chronicles_of_Narnia#Christian_parallels) of C.S. Lewis' books. I mean, for fuck's sake.

I totally disagree with the religious undertones. I read the series when I was younger back when my parents made me go to church every Sunday, and not once did I ever get any religious vibes from the books. It's just not there, and that's what angers me about Holleran's outlandish comments. He's dead wrong. And I don't see how I'm contradicting myself at all, his opinion is way off.

and to scott holleran...his opinion is the word of god. he's not way off...he's only way off from your opinion and that's that. to say he's wrong is like asking him what he like better: chicken or turkey. and he's says turkey and you tell him he's wrong because chicken is better (in your opinion). he's not wrong in any way and neither are you when it comes to an opinion about a movie or ANYTHING for that matter. when it comes to opinions, there is no right or wrong....that's something, you, i, scott, and everyone else have to deal with. i'm in retail at the moment (and have been for some time) and i'd really hate to see how you react when someone brings up a good point or an opinion on something that would work better to make everyone jobs easier or make the company more profitable that you don't agree with.
maybe you should become a gossip columnist or something of that nature.

It is true these books, incredible of every level of theology and literature, are inarguably comprised of many incredbiyl deep themes, one of which is religion, more aptly labeled faith.
It is stupid to bash a film for being overly religious when it was much too shallow and hardly, if at all (adequately, anyway), touched upon any of the depth of Lewis's work of art. I can respect the review to some degree, regardless of his bias, but this is fatually wrong. I'm entirely positive that Adamson sat down with Disney at some point, and, een if they understood the truth behind the novel Prince Caspian, they made sure not to get anymore than remotely pro-faith.
It is ignorant to say someone's opinion is wrong. That completely voids the very definition and virute of the word "opinion". Check Meriram-Webster.

I disagree with that. When one doesn't agree with someone in a wholeheartedly manner, they will have the belief that their opinion is dead wrong (As I have right here with Mr. Holleran). I will go to my grave saying that everyone's very own opinion is the complete right way to go, and how others feel about different projects are for lack of a better word, simply wrong. Your own opinion is the only opinion.

By definition, an opinion cannot be right or wrong. To be anything but neutral, one must have factual evidence supporting his/her hypothesis. Dying for the validity and sake of your opinion proves nothing other than your dedication, deovtion, and, ultimately, stupidity (if you'd die to prove Scott Holleran was a tool...:D).
So an opinion can be entirely laughable and inane, but it cannot be associated with beingcorrect or being incorrect.
Scott Holleran may be a tool to someone and God incarnate to another (eh...).

Scarfather you seem like an intelligent person, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you have to understand where I'm coming from by now. As we are both well aware of this isn't the first time we have disagreed, but each and every time you feel the need to post these pictures instead of talking. You have to see my point after we've each made several posts. I believe that when someone has an opinion, there is no other opinion out there. My opinion is the one and only, the all saying, and the only one that matters. You should feel the same way about yours, it's your opinion. Having said that, you can still debate other people over films. It's fun, and isn't that why we're all here? But you'll never change my mind for I am 100% right.

He's absolutely right, one's opinion can never be 'wrong' if you think about it, the same way one's opinion can never be right, because its an opinion not a written fact. I really don't see how most people don't get that.

Just because your opinion is movie related doesn't mean it can't be wrong. I can't say Tobey Maguire was Iron Man because he wasn't and I would be dead wrong.
The Narnia books and movies HAVE Christian themes. That's not even an opinion, it's just fact. Lewis was a famous Christian apologist and wrote the books with Christian themes in mind. In fact, there have been entire books written about it:
http://www.amazon.com/Heart-Chronicles-Narnia-Knowing-Finding/dp/B000H2ME7S/ref=pd_sim_b_title_5
http://www.amazon.com/Roar-Christian-Family-Chronicles-Narnia/dp/1590525361/ref=pd_sim_b_title_4

And all you're going to do is stick your fingers in your ears and scream 'ALALALALALALALALALA' like Jim Carrey in Dumb and Dumber and say that you're a god and you're 100% right and ignore that mountain of evidence that proves you wrong.

Your not really seeing what I'm saying. Of course Tobey Maguire was not Iron Man. If I said 'in my opinion, Tobey Maguire is Iron Man' than yes that would be wrong, because millions of people have clearly seen that Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man. HOWEVER, if I say 'in my opinion, Iron Man is a shit movie', I am not wrong and I am not right. This is because it is cinema and different movies appeal to different people, there is no written fact or contract, showing Iron Man to be a good movie.
As for your second statement, I am fully aware of the fact that the Narnia books have Christian themes and assume you are talking to moviefan. To be honest I did not read the full conversation and only responded to the opinion statement.

Eh, bah, hew, gah...this is ridiculous. I can't believe we're doing this...but regardless here's the Merriam-Webster entry (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/opinion):
2 a: belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge b: a generally held view
Factually, or at least by the very defintion of opinion, you cannot have an opinion that the world is flat because it "is less strong than positive knowledge". We know the world is round, as it has been concretely proven.
Scott Holleran's status as a "tool" cannot be proven factually. I say he could be, or maybe he couldn't be, or maybe I don't know the guy or, therefore, the answer. I do know, as does everyone else, that the world is round, or, more appropriately, spherical.

I hope that's not what was being debated...I was simply arguing the ridiculous, ludacris, and altogether entirely refutable case for legitimizing subjectivity in opinions.
C.S. Lewis, by fact, did include thematically Christian elements. It's a fact even simply because he's stated so himself.

Two quick things I would like to add - If you think your own opinion is always right, then there's really no point in discussing films with others unless your sole intention is voicing your opinion to someone other then yourself. No point in trying to convince the other person of your opinion because they think theirs is the right one and no point in listening to their opinion because it won't change your mind. So why even read a review on a film if the critic’s opinion is worthless to you . . . unless you're an up your ass type person who reads reviews only to make sure they agree with yours.
And there can be opinions that are wrong. For example if I say Cloverfield sucked because it was filmed using a hand-held and I didn't know the whole movie was going to be like that. In that case it's not that Cloverfield sucked, it's just that I don't like movies filmed using a hand-held.

But you are not defining "right" and "wrong" in a universal sense. Your opinion is right to you, wrong to me, and indefinite to someone else.
On a universal level, it is just another voice, no louder or softer or more important than any other.

As I've said, I always know my opinion is right. However, that doesn't mean I don't like to discuss others on film/television shows. This is our passion after all or we wouldn't be here. I come on here to point others in the right direction, and hopefully help them to see things in another light. Not to mention I love discussing this stuff. It's really fun. And to be completely frank, it does stroke my ego a bit when I see people agree with me. And those that don't, well, I don't think they're right.
You sound like one of those people who goes into a natural history museum only to point out to others how the evolution theory is ridiculous.

Lmao. I read through this thread and the interesting argument going on, and what do I see? Two jealous guys mentioning me in the thread when it doesn't even pretain to me.
Keep up the good work, fellas. Your jealousy of me and my awesomeness only becomes more obvious when you do things like this. :cool:

If I could pick one person out of every human being that has ever existed in the history of existence that I am one hundred thousand percent sure no one has ever been jealous of, it would be one of the people in this thread.

I agree. Poor you, Scarfather. I'm sure someone will be jealous of you and your Uwe Boll love one day. :rolleyes:

I happened to read that review a few days ago and was very turned off by it. Holleran wasn't reviewing a film, he was critiquing a paticular faith that he doesn't care for. His bias against Christianity is very evident when he reviews anything that is remotely Christian.
