I just spotted, on the dvd art for Phone Booth, in dvd discussion a quote by whores whore Earl Dittman.
To clarify; a quote whore is someone who will enthuse about any lump of steaming crap in order to get their words on a movie poster.
Here are some gems:
David Sheehan (KCBS TV)
National Security – Hilarious! Wild Comic Brilliance!
The Jungle Book 2 – Pure joy! The best family movie in a decade.
(This is me: Lets remember that this is a decade including the Toy Story films and Shrek)
Kevin Thomas (LA Times)
National Security – A funny, raucous action comedy.
Gods and Generals – An awesome sense of authenticity and scope. (Me again: AWESOME is a really overused word. Space is awesome, movies tend not to be)
Boat Trip – Hilarious! A no-holds-barred, all-out farce
Jim Svejda (KNX/CBS Radio)
Gods and Generals – Stunning, inspired and inspiring, Gods and Generals is the finest Civil War movie ever made – including Gone with the Wind.
Earl Dittman (Wireless Magazines)
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days – An endearing and witty romantic comedy packed with so much charisma the laughs never quit. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are a match made in movie heaven. Falling in love never looked so fun and exciting.
View from the Top – Incredibly hilarious! Laugh packed! Side-splitting!
(A film that star Gwyneth Paltrow called A View From My Ass)
Boat Trip – One crazy and daring romantic comedy…Vivica A. Fox absolutely sizzles
The Core – Strap yourself in for the ride of a lifetime. A breathtaking, white-knuckle voyage to the center of pure, unadulterated action and excitement. An electrifying, jaw-dropping action film that will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat. The Core is packed with so much red hot star power it can’t help but sizzle.
A Man Apart – The film that should turn Vin Diesel into the ultimate hero. A hard-hitting and action-fueled film.
MAID IN MANHATTAN: “The funniest romantic comedy of the year!”
40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS: “A sexy, fresh and wildly hip comedy!”
TOMB RAIDER: “With eye-popping action and electrifying thrills, Tomb Raider will have you screaming, laughing and cheering from beginning to end!"
Wes Craven Presents: They – A flawless, breathtaking, terror-filled thriller…A must see!
Collateral Damage – A First-Class Suspense-Filled Thriller!
High Crimes - Fantastic! Full of unstoppable suspense
Murder By Numbers – The Hottest Suspense Thriller In Town! Bullock is incredible. She gives one of the most astonishingly powerful and fiercely moving performances of her career.
(This is me: When has Bullock EVER been'fiercly moving'???)
The Sum of All Fears – The Sum of All Fears is what great filmmaking is all about. It grabs you by the throat and never lets go! An astonishing and thrilling motion picture.
K-19: The Widowmaker – A cinematic triumph that has Academy Awards written all over it. You’ll be engrossed by the power and intensity of K-19: The Widowmaker, from the moment it lights up the screen to the final flicker of its last frame. Harrison Ford is an extraordinary actor who gives a passionate, Oscar-caliber performance in a magnificently moving motion picture. Director Kathryn Bigelow has constructed a hard-hitting and thought-provoking drama that will leave you breathless and completely in awe.
(I've seen the trailer and can say this much; Ford's Oscar caliber performance is delivered in an accent the razzies would feel justified rewarding)
One Hour Photo – It will haunt your very soul.
We Were Soldiers - A modern-day classic. Truly magnificent and absolutely unforgettable! Mel Gibson’s most stunning and mesmerizing performance to date.”
Undisputed – Electrifying! Jaw-Dropping! It will knock you out of your seat! It’s unforgettable!
Men In Black II – An electrifying, laugh-filled, hi-energy experience. Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are sensational!
Serving Sara – Serving Sara is a sexy, zany and over-the-top road movie that breaks all the rules…This is one wildly wacky and terrifically twisted comedy! Matthew Perry is delightful and outrageously hilarious. Reginald Hudlin has directed another wild and outrageous comedy.
Analyze That – Robert DeNiro and Billy Crystal are outrageously hilarious! Their performances are what comedic legends are made of.
Brown Sugar – Brown Sugar almost single-handedly redefines the date movie…slick, sexy and slammin’
Formula 51 – Formula 51 is a high-octane, adrenaline-pumped action comedy packed with wit and style!
40 Days and 40 Nights - A sexy, fresh and wildly hip comedy!
Spy Kids 2 – Hysterically funny and wildly entertaining. A thrill-a-minute spy adventure.
Hey Arnold!: The Movie – A hysterical, entertaining treat for the whole family!
Scooby-Doo – You’ll howl with laughter.
Friday After Next – The funniest Friday ever!
Narc – An incredible bold artistic achievement! Narc is the most incredibly moving film you will have seen all year.
The Four Feathers – The Four Feathers is an exquisite, breathtaking epic! ****! An astounding, unforgettable motion picture which is both heroic and remarkably passionate. It is a phenomenal cinematic achievement! You will feel compelled to see it over and over again.
I'm almost impressed with Dittman (assuming he even exists) thats a phenomenal amount of whoring.
So what do you think of the quote whores? Do you even read the quotes any more? Name and shame whores you've spotted.
