Subject: Actually I wrote a WU Review...
In reply to: Patrick Lonergan 's message, "REVIEWS: Jason Bateman 02/12/05" on 11:16:40 02/12/05 Sat

Like CCS I feel like I've been a little harsh, perhaps. But as I said to someone last night, "The truth hurts." (Hmm. Didn't mean that to be as suggestive as it sounded. Or did I?)

Could I have been more tactful. Probably. Sorry.

GM-Meh. Just blah.
Sudden death-Meh.
Car bomb-??? Is there a joke in here somewhere?
Iraqi election-Meh.
Cream-That made me laugh, and I don’t have a clue who Ginger Baker is, although I knew how old Cream was, allowing me to get the joke. I basically thought Bob Dylan was dead until I heard he was performing in Boston. Maybe that’s why I liked this joke.
North Korea-Well-intentioned, but the wording threw me off for the punchline.
Al Sharpton-Again, well-intentioned but wording was confusing. Amy first says “objections over treatment of chickens” and suddenly starts talking about “hatred of fried chicken”…
Cursed-Good point but not very funny.
Pope-Good.
Ex-lover-Good.
Mexico-Lame.
Juice-Meh…like the attitude, but it doesn’t quite work.
Deer-Watch your syntax, but I know I would laugh pretty hard at the Bambi clip. This isn’t particularly clever but I do think it would be funny.
Michael Jackson-I think this might have worked if you had put a real disaster in there. But I guess there haven’t been any earthquakes in California recently.
Paul McCartney-Dumb.
The other Jackson joke-???
Friends-Is there a joke here?
Paris Hilton-Way too much like Hilton’s WU cameo. And not funny anyway.
Will Smith-A little weird, because this is another comedy-based-on-comedy kind of thing, and my opinion is that stuff generally doesn’t work. Because it’s Valentine’s Day, can’t you just have some random guy do it instead of bringing Will Smith and his movie into it? That’s really obvious advertising, the way it seems now. The content here is not very funny anyway.

Yes, I know I should be contributing more to WU. But I’m busy. I know, everyone’s busy, but…I mean it. I’ll spare you the details.
