Aeon Flux, Talk Amongst Yourselves

Kasracer writes "The movie Aeon Flux has been getting a mixture of reviews since its debut and most tend to be on the negative side. A review posted on BinaryIdiot goes a bit more in-depth than most reviews and gives the movie a fair shot. From the review: "First of all, I have to say that I'm disappointed, but not altogether surprised by the reviews I've seen thus far. Those who review films for a living are notoriously unreliable, and in many cases, they miss the whole point altogether. Rest assured, even though I'm as skeptical as they come, and can find a flaw in absolutely anything, I won't pick on this movie simply because the plot may be too hard for some people to understand."

I, for one, am shocked!

Aeon Flux had a plot?

That's news to me.

Synopsis: if you don't get it you're dumb

Did Taco actually RTFA? This isn't a review at all, it's just some TNA starved sci-fi geek saying "no, it isn't" a whole bunch.

The movie has a bad plot. No, it doesn't!
The movie has bad characters. No, it doesn't!
The movie has poor special effects. No, it doesn't!

How very very useful... the only thing that's correct about the review is the fact that it's on a site with "idiot" in the domain name. It's a good thing this made the front page so the guy can get some extra banner ad clicks.

Re:Slashdot "experts" strike again.

Does this also apply to analyzing people you've never met and don't know a thing about? If so , then you're spot on.

Re: This was a review? This is news?

> Oh, I don't know. I think that Slashdot has always been much like it is today. You can see it as a good thing, or a bad thing, but at least they are consistent. Poor spelling, off base comments at the ends of postings, lame articles that make the front page, and the dubious practice of calling themselves editors when they don't have been here at least as long as I have, back in '96 or '97.

See? Nothing changes.
