Re:Good for Buffy

Really?

Just because YOU think the series is the next best thing in the world, it might not be all that great after all. Personally, I think Buffy the series is beyond crap, at best. It's like watching Matrix Reloaded. I just don't fcking GET IT! That, and there's always a small legion of bozos around who claim that I'm the idiot for "not getting it" and that I should see all the previous episodes to understand and appreciate it.

True art is something which will always be remembered for the amount of creativity, effort and passion that was poured into something. Elvis Presley's music is art; I can't stand hearing it but it's art. In one hundred years people will still know about Elvis Presley, same thing for the Rolling Stones and Queen. Stanley Kubrick (sp?) is an artist too, even though I can't stand his movies either. You don't have to like something for it to be deserving of anything, and the reverse is true as well; as soon as YOU like something doesn't mean it automatically is the next best thing since sliced bread.
