This is coming from someone who is maybe 40(ish) and watches a childrens movie.

I agree with him about the age and the possiblity that they could be replaced, but hes getting angry over nothing. The only people that will watch the movies are 1) Kids, the sole auidence the movies (not book) are approaching and 2) The fans of the book.

Even though he may not be 40(ish) he still looks like the age that these movies are not trying to approach.

Yeah, I was gonna say he was around the age of 25. He started that page up while still in college.

I'm sure he knows who the film is intended for. That page is just a hobby of his where he rants about anything and everything. It's meant to just be humorous.

Hell, I'll be 23 in a few weeks, and I've had people try to talk me into seeing all three. If I had to, I'd probably create a similar rant.

He's not getting angry for nothing, he's getting angry for entertainment.

Yeah, I will venture on over to Maddox's site every now and then to read his hilarious rants.


His review for Dawn of the Dead is classic

ok well i dont think one of the highest grossing movies of all time is made up of kids and fans of the book maybe 30% tops

soo your wrong

many people see the movie due to the huge amounts of publicity no because they're under 12 or read the books, ive seen the movies and i am neither 12 or read the books

just sounded dumb to me

Maddox is usually pretty funny. The Harry Potter rant wasn't.

I'm over 25 and saw this movie, because I like all types of movies, and heard this was good.

I complained about it afterwards too. It doesn't matter who the movie is aimed at, a good movie should be a good movie.

This movie was a fucking piece of shit. At least the first one. Those fucking kids from the sweathogs were ingrateful little shits, and are the reason the corporal punishment flies in my book. Harry Potter is a wimp -- and yes, it is fair of me to say he is wimp, even though he is half my age and weight. That little kid from Malcolm in the MIdlde -- COULD KICK HIS ASS. The only thing good to come out of this movie are all of the parodies of it. This movie sends a pretty bad message too - I'm not going as far as the fundamental Catholics took it, but this movie sends of message of self-promotion, manipulation, and disrespect. I'm not talking in a Ferris Bueller kind of way either -- that movie took a sentimental approach.

I was expecting this movie to be like a modern Willie Wonka, instead I got a really long Incredible Adventures of Mr. Limpet.

Oh, and Maddox is funny.

Harry Potter should have stayed as books. Daniel Radcliffe is a sack of shit.

I agree with every word, up to and including "Maddox is funny." You're my hero, Bubba...
