There used to be a critic like that writing for the Asbury Park Press when I was a teenager. Nothing was ever good enough for her refined tastes, with the invective scaling in direct proportion to how likely it was to be enjoyed by the general public. It got to the point that my friends and I took a negative review from her as reason enough to go see a film. This was a woman who declared that Star Wars was worthless junk best consigned to the trash can of cinematic history, as it would no doubt be once it flopped at the box office.

Well. He clearly was raised in a Skinner box before being given a job at the CBC.
