Saw Chronicle a few days ago

Nope . . . you're as guilty as me, unfortunately. :cheers:

But I take no notice. When you say, "Gladiator was good," I understand without being told that you're telling me what you personally think of Gladiator, rather than trying to convey that your personal opinion is the definitive authority on the matter. Nevertheless, while we can agree that there's no accounting for taste, it can still be interesting to discuss the merits of a given movie. For example, while it clearly doesn't bother you to have the main characters of a movie act in absurd and jarringly unbelievable ways (Gladiator), you totally related to my criticisms of the type of camera work used in Chronicle. Obviously, there are people out there who would disagree with me about the found-footage thing. And while those people are entitled to their own opinions, this is mainly because people are entitled to be wrong. :P

No, you're right in this case. It is the authoritative opinion. Millions of people are just plain wrong. They are mostly kids and otherwise lusty females who aren't in their right minds. And the kids usually grow up and realize that he does suck.
Bieber is a pompous little dick, and why can't it be him instead of Diana crashing along a highway fleeing from the paparazzi? I realize someone would just take his place, but he's a dick. An asshat with a complex. I hate him with every fiber of my being. Anything is better than him.
shmokes:
Of course, Saint is right. Justin Beiber's music is retarded. I don't know anything about him personally because I don't pay any attention to any of the types of media where he would appear. Nevertheless, here's some relevant info from Wikipedia:
Bieber has received numerous awards, including Artist of the Year at the 2010 American Music Awards, and was nominated for such accolades as Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album at the 53rd Grammy Awards. With a global fan base, termed as "Beliebers", and over 20 million followers on Twitter, Bieber was named by Forbes in 2012 as the third-most-powerful celebrity in the world; he had earned an estimated US$55 million in the previous 12 months.
So it's a pretty apt comparison.
