The Magnificent Joe Queenan
He’s my favorite critic, period. “In the new movie “Inception,” Leonardo DiCaprio burrows deep into the subconscious of a self-absorbed plutocrat to plant a powerful idea that will change the world. If the technology used in “Inception” were available in real life, Mr. DiCaprio might burrow into the subconscious of Hollywood plutocrats and plant these paradigm-altering ideas: Stop making movies like “Grown Ups,” “Sex and the City 2,” “Prince of Persia” and anything that positions Jennifer Aniston or John C. Reilly at the top of the marquee.” [Wall Street Journal]

He is bang on. I’m fucking sick of movies where developmentally retarded feebs passing as adults are heroes.
I’m LOOKING AT YOU KEVIN JAMES.

@ManchuCandidate: Yes, Queenan’s in the Authoritative List of Contributors in my gorgeous coffeetable Spy book.
love him long time.
