[Critics]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Something that always amazes me when I read my morning
|
||
|
paper is the amount of critics that get to write in it.
|
||
|
They complain about how bad some movie or play they
|
||
|
have seen is. And they go on and on about how bad it
|
||
|
was. I wonder if they have a template where they just
|
||
|
fill in the name of the movie or the play and then change
|
||
|
some of the words so that no one will notice the
|
||
|
difference. Here in Europe it is almost as if it was
|
||
|
forbidden to write a good review of a movie produced in
|
||
|
the USA.
|
||
|
Also, they review books "for us". The thought is perhaps to
|
||
|
spare us from the books that are badly written or just
|
||
|
plain garbage. I wonder if it has ever occurred to any
|
||
|
of the critics that people have different taste. I wonder
|
||
|
why people read their fucking articles at all! How can
|
||
|
they possibly think that one person that they have never
|
||
|
met is capable of judging what they should read, what is
|
||
|
shit and what is not?
|
||
|
I believe that this is a major symptom of the bug that
|
||
|
our society has catched. Papers and TV-companies actually
|
||
|
have people employed to think for us! Critics do not have
|
||
|
any function in our society. When the critics write their
|
||
|
articles, they are not doing it because they think that
|
||
|
some author or some movie director could perhaps do a
|
||
|
better job if they write some constructive criticism, no
|
||
|
they write their stuff because they want to prove to us
|
||
|
"dumb" people that they are intellectual, and capable of
|
||
|
doing a much better job if they wanted to.
|
||
|
For example, Ace Of Base (ok ok, perhaps you don't like
|
||
|
them, just wait though) is being seriously targeted here in
|
||
|
Sweden by our "music-critics". They write all sorts of
|
||
|
stuff about this band, how bad they play, how ugly they
|
||
|
are, how bad their choreographic is.
|
||
|
|
||
|
How come they sell so good?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some people like them!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Not the critics though!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Why?
|
||
|
|
||
|
BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST PLAIN JEALOUS LOSERS!
|
||
|
|
||
|
A lot of people read their articles and form some kind of
|
||
|
opinion about this band after they have read it - but
|
||
|
before they have actually heard the music. Or people trust
|
||
|
the critics because they are so smart and successful so
|
||
|
they get to write stuff in a magazine. We all know that
|
||
|
everything printed in a paper is always true, right?
|
||
|
Perhaps Ace Of Base isn't one of my personal favorites, but
|
||
|
they do deserve to get a fair chance - like everyone else.
|
||
|
Imagine what you might have missed all these years because
|
||
|
you have listened to some of these losers! There might
|
||
|
be some really good music or some really good books you
|
||
|
have not read because a sucker wrote it down totally. Maybe
|
||
|
he had a bad day when he wrote the review. Maybe his wife
|
||
|
left him. Maybe his cat got pregnant - by the dog. Maybe he
|
||
|
got a positive AIDS-test back.
|
||
|
Maybe he is just a jealous loser.
