Well, I think that was a pretty unamiguous example of what Thalia was referring to.

I suppose it's inevitable that, as the site gets more hits, we'll get more silly reviews.

Very subjective reviews there.

Subjectivity vs Objectivity; it a difficult balancing act to be sure. The later usually going missing at some point seemingly much more readily than the former.

I can't see anyone else that have reviewed Cars here even mentioning Mater, let alone saying that they thought he was this great, amazing character.

I haven't see Cars, so I can't comment on it. I've seen Over the Hedge and thought it was a fun little film; I'm still trying to decide how much fun it was and how that relates to the score I'll give it.

From what I understand, IMDb has some formula that kills a certain percentage of reviews at the top and bottom end of the scale to help reduce that problem... but it really doesn't work unless you've got the kind of traffic where you're getting a hundred reviews in the first hour that the film is out.

Mater kinda reminded me of Dory from 'Finding Nemo' in that even though it's supposedly a buddy-buddy role, he's so far below Lightning McQueen in intelligence and real-world saavy that Lightning is like half buddy, half parent/caretaker to Mater.

Personally I prefer my buddy-buddy characters to be on a bit more even footing... ie. Mike and Sulley from 'Monsters Inc.'


Haven't seen 'Over the Hedge'... will have to wait until it comes out video now.

These two reviews:

Over the Hedge review (http://www.keyframeonline.com/OneReview/Over_the_Hedge/50/1230/)

Cars review (http://www.keyframeonline.com/OneReview/Cars/35/1230/)

They seem to exist solely to slam Cars and phrase Over the Hedge retrospectively. All to bring the star rating as far down and up as he can, just because of the other film’s existence.
