You spent a lot of time and effort on a piece of junk. I suspect your reaction is basically due to the resentment of the message he so eloquently "enfilmed". I'd go into it but you seem preoccupied with picking inconsequential nits. This is a 3, but Napoleon Dynamite is a 10 ? Nuff said.
First of all, I have to say that the quote "you spent a lot of time and effort on a piece of junk" could be equally applied to the makers of this film. It's an old adage of homeopathy that 'like cures like,' so if the time and effort I've spent on my original post is a 'piece of junk,' then the same must at least be said for the makers of this lame bit of garbage posing as profound thought -- i.e. the movie 'Inception'
Second, I find it absolutely hilarious that you, of all people, would sift through my movie rankings in order to form some kind of judgment. This, coming from a guy who gives "Streets of Fire" a 95, the pinnacle of 80s cheese, while giving "District 9" a 50, and "Robocop" a 60, respectively tier 2 and 3 movies in your estimation, while "Streets of Fire" enjoys Tier 10.
Nuff said indeed.
And to RaymudLi, who said that:

You didn't like it for several reasons. It doesn't mean one has to be right and the other wrong. Opposing opinions can coexist you know.
Isn't this what movie reviews are supposed to do? Are they not supposed to 'make it sound like your opinion is the only one that counts'?
Finally, I loved pumpkins add to this mix:
