Making it through entire video with mildly amused demeanor. Professing flawed analysis of irrelevant genre.
Being distracted by e-mail beep.

Defensive comment from blog owner who over interprets affect of previous commenter.

Comparison to a similar movie that was much better.

Mention of yet another movie that if one has not seen one is not cool.

Breaks chain of conversation with irreverent comment to prove superiority over previous commenters, points out minor errors in spelling or grammar.

Derogatory comment about director and movie, noting that blogger is racist and admitting that I have not seen the movie or read the blog post.

Mean-spirited take-down of the movie peppered with baffling Postmodern buzzwords, clearly based only on material in the trailer.

Posted by: HalfMooner | March 13, 2010 5:17 PM

Notes that the book was better, followed by long rant about the lack of originality in Hollywood nowadays.

Inspired to sing Title Of The Song. (Wishing there was a better video for it.)

Sadly I kind of wanted to see this movie until about the one minute 30 second mark. But then I saw the old actress trying to make a comeback and I remembered my hatred for her in an early movie from her teenage days called "Teenage Movie Title".

Inspired to sing Title Of The Song. (Wishing there was a better video for it.)

Expression of disbelief that poster was not the first to mention "Title Of The Song," and mild disappointment at having one's perceived and metaphorical thunder stolen.

(...and I hold a high note~)

This is the part where I come in and say something explosive and detrimental in a quasi-troll-yet-pithy-and-amusing way.

Aaaaaand: Scene.

/delurking tag to indicate unimportant status

Ranting, incoherent post containing references to ongoing meta-topics to authenticate lurker status.

Repeated mentions of time spent lurking.

Brief, uninformative on-topic comment.

Compliment to blogwriter for being blogwriter.

Comment concerning desperate attempt to find name of lead actress, excited remark about the human desire for procreation; while ignoring discouraging reminders of one's own marital status.

Redundant and unnecessary comment parodying the style of dialog and expressing amusement.
