Correction.

I would just like to take this moment and discredit a current ad campaign. Nope, nothing about that new bullshit ad with the anti-Kerry Viet vets. No, I'm talkin' 'bout The Manchurian Candidate (2004) (aka The Wesley Clark Story). Paramount is currently running TV ads touting it as "the year's most critically acclaimed film."

According to the good tally-whackers over at Metacritic, the doucheriffic remake is currently the 15th most acclaimed film currently in general release (and that's not even including the films that have come out earlier in the year).

Over at Rotten Tomatoes they do have stats on all the films released in '04 and Demme's abortomatic re-imagining weighs in as the 59th most acclaimed film of the year.

So that's a big f off to Ms. Lansing and her spin crew. The Whine Colored Sea won't stand for that spin.

And that is my nerded out film-dork rant. Thank you.
