"In response to your repeated requests to bring back the TV show "At the Movies," I am launching a fundraising campaign via Kickstarter in the next couple of weeks. And gamers beware, I am even thinking about a movie version of a video game or mobile app. Once completed, you can engage me in debate on whether you think it is art."
My neighbour bought that movie for me a few years ago.
It's the only present I ever gave back.
I don't personally believe in giving gifts back.
I do, however, believe in casting the offending object into the sacrificial bonfire of the Horrendous Gifting Gods. It ensures that I will not receive another such horrid present for at least another year.
I have a book of his lowest rated films, or at least the ones with the most amusing reviews, and I love it. I have always looked to him first for movie reviews. Even when I don't agree with him, I know his style well enough that I can still figure out roughly what I'll think of a movie based on his review. He will be missed.
