The Cinema For 6/19/10: They Win The Joe Barton A-Hole Award For The Week

Yes, there are supposed "recognized critics" that hate this film:
Now meet the two jerks that wanted to be jerks and ruin the 100% over consensus for this film :

Cinema Blend's perfect take:
It’s not their hatred of Toy Story 3 that’s so galling, it’s their utter failure in amongst that hatred, to come up with even one relevant criticism of the film. Neither of them really ever discuss the movie itself, they’re too busy stroking their own egos or attacking the world which refuses to think like them. White is obsessed with product placement, which doesn’t exist. Smithey seems only concerned with production budgets. It’s suspicious that they’ve waited until the last minute to publish their reviews. Rotten Tomatoes orders review links based on when they’re posted. So the longer you wait to publish your review, the more likely it is that it’ll be at the top and viewed by thousands. What does it mean when the only two negative reviews of a film are intentionally posted late? To me it says someone’s gaming the system.

But whether they actually hate Toy Story 3 or they’re simply pretending to hate it in a callous bid to inflate their Analytics, it seems clear that Smithey and White are flat out wrong. Their reviews are built on hate, not real film criticism. They rail against anyone who likes it, happily sitting alone on their bitter, hate-filled island. An island of wrong. Hundreds of film critics have proclaimed their love for Toy Story over the course of three movies and the two baldies who hate it can’t really tell us why. Most of the time film is subjective. This time it’s not.

But why would they want to bring their website any addition little clicks or whatever the hell they want for being known as voices to never ever listen to on anything again?

Simply because people like this are only "attention whores" and nothing else, as one dear friend of mine would say.

Craving for attention by being just fake instead of real, they just waste everyone's time with their desire to be recognized. Even if that recognition is leading people to see their utter insanity, stupidity, immaturity and justified irrelevance, they would sacrifice respect just to get "talked about."

It's what attention whores in all walks of life, from film to other things, only know how to do.

And in this case, it's two a--holes going against a movie with no opinion of a movie, especially when it is one of the best films you will ever see in your life, no matter what age you are.
