    It’s like what Hitler would say.

    “If you have any interest in the world becoming an improved place” haha. I love it when he makes these comments

  • DTM020 says:

    Good advise! :D

  • 90mv says:

    Why does Paris Hilton exist exactly ? LOLLLLLLLL

  • bumratbob says:

    i agree to an extent but for me and a lot more people watching, reading and listening to them tear a bad movie to pieces is the best bit about the reviews.

  • Dante1Savage says:

    “The nottie looks like a monster.” HAHAHAHAHAHA oh my god, I exploded laughing at that

  • tapirtoonthree says:

    I’m jealous! I want a PhD, like the good doctor!

  • tommyhall12 says:

    yes, two and a half minutes is beyond the pale

  • AchillesShield says:

    In the end while Mark is correct he spend way too much time on it. There are some films that are just so incredibly bad that they’re beneath contempt, and as a result even spending a lot of time criticising it is giving it attention that it doesn’t deserve. This film, like Disaster Movie, shouldn’t have been savaged by critics, it should have been ignored out of complete contempt.

    +1 to tfn105 for recognising the motivation needed to see a course through.

    Good luck with your PhD, I did maths to further education standard and I found that a monumental challenge.

  • tfn105 says:

    Treblaine: I agree in principle with you, although there are plenty of people who are smart-enough to undertake a PhD, but the real deal-breaker is whether you are prepared to put in the necessary work. I’m doing one in maths at the moment and that’s the biggest challenge, constantly motivating yourself inspite of never really quite understanding the work, not being sure which direction it’s going in etc. etc.

  • Alfrunk says:

    I like him too, I just don’t think that “Plan 9 in Outer Space” is a sound academic basis for a doctoral degree.

  • JoeHughes says:

    Haha! I disagree but you made me smile, nice one. Dr. K is awesome.

  • Treblaine says:

    If you had any idea how hard it is to get a PhD and how smart you have to be to even start getting one, you will know that the title “Doctor” is VERY well deserved.

    BTW, his PhD was in English, now you go and tell an English Professor that PhDs in their subject are worthless and you’ll get laughed out of his or her lecture hall.

    Paris Hilton has a cunt instead of a face.

  • IddyB says:

    Paris Hilton is Epic Fail.

  • slimjimpui says:

    What I’m saying is that films like this belong in the category of horror(of the worst kind)

  • jankokomuszek says:

    Then, if a theoretical physicist does his PhD in linear algebra then he’s no physicist ?

  • slimjimpui says:

    If the good Dr has a PhD in horror then it’s appropriate for him to review this film.

  • Alfrunk says:

    I know – I was ridiculing the idea of someone having a PhD in something as ridiculous and nonsensical as ‘scary movies’, and then running around calling himself Dr. He’s a Dr. like Dr. Pepper is a Dr.

  • JoeHughes says:

    He is a doctor, Alfrunk; he has a PhD in something to do with horror, I can’t remember what exactly.

  • Sapphonouveau says:

    I can’t believe they actually made him review this. Oh cruel Fates…!

  • lamtsite says:

    That’s because the BBC’s excuse is that its because of the evil “copyright” which seems odd since its essentially a commercial for the movie (even though he sometimes doesn’t like it, but then who listens to reviewers ;)

  • Alfrunk says:

    “Dr” lol

  • baleistheshit says:

    Mark Kermode u actually are my idol, always spot on!
