The Dark Knight clocks in
In Response to drudolph: Sorry, I guess I didn't do my research. I should have gone back a few years a validated my response. I suppose my response was based off the numerous movies in the genre he seems not to care for, such as Ironman, The Incredible Hulk, The Fantastic Four (I &II), Spider-Man (1 & 3), Superman Returns, Hellboy, Hellboy II, Judge Dredd, Hancock, Blade II, Blade Trinity, The Punisher, and anything else I forgot. I guess I was astronomically wrong when I said he doesn't "seem" to enjoy this genre. What qualifies as him liking a movie? A star, two stars? I hate green beans so if I don't puke when I eat one does that mean I was satisfied? Just curious. In response to joshb: So do you or don't you do restaurant reviews seeing that you hate seafood? If I am understanding you correctly since you hate seafood, you should be a seafood critic, correct? Therefore if Shep(h)erd hates comic book films then he should review them? Maybe, it was the syntax but your logic is faultier then mine.— August 5, 2008 2:18 p.m.

Johnrubio-thanks for your compelling defense of yourself and D. Sheperd. I am sure it surprises you how so many rubes could operate a keyboard and put together a coherent thought at the same time. I, being a self proclaimed dolt, can only have sympathy for what it must be like to be a tortured genius with only this pathetic forum to exhibit your intellect. To be one of the only two torch bearers of intelligence in a world blackened with Paris Hilton platinum blondes and deafened by Hannah Montana Siren songs, makes you a modern day Prometheus to be sure. Now please pick up your order at trendy hipster coffee house and go back to "finishing" your novel. I don't agree with Sheperd's review, but he has every right to write it. And as for the argument "well if you don't like his reviews stop reading them,” well then perhaps Mr. Shepherd should stop seeing movies based on comic books, which he seems to never enjoy. But I do enjoy his reviews for the fact that they do challenge the status quo, and because he does alert me to movies that I had never heard of before, but thankful for watching later.— August 1, 2008 9:21 a.m.
