You seriously think a movie given thumbs' down by 80% of the critics will be regarded as an eternal classic in future years? Even the few positive reviews DA VINCI has gotten aren't great. They rate it as a passable summer entertainment film. You think THE DA VINCI CODE is a masterpiece? A classic that will be admired, cherished, and imitated for generations?

golly gee whiz.

I sure don't remember heaping such accolades on the movie

I said it was good and was doing much better than the 'critics' predicted.

Wow, my editor would wear out his red pen if you were to cover a story...

Actually, the movie isn't doing better than the critics predicted. Most critics think the film sucks but figured it would do well given its cult following.

You don't need an editor as much as you need a historian.
