      Being a movie reviewer sounds like the best job, but for every Godfather or Star Wars they watch, there's a Baby Geniuses or Wild, Wild West that they have to sit through as well.

    Unbelievably ignorant take on Magnolia by Siegel. The frogs scene is clearly a fantastical event that exists outside the reality of the film and is meant to be taken as a metaphor or even a prophecy. Stunning that Siegel didn’t understand the concept of that scene and even worse that he criticizes the film because of not understanding it. Ebert certainly understood.

    • @brentandrew2419
      @brentandrew2419 2 месяца назад +3

      Yeah, he didn't get that the whole point is that they use the event to change their lives, because there is only the illusion of coincidence and the only meaning is what we choose to make of things. He missed it by a mile, so deadened is he inside by watching horrible movies every week like an assembly line.

    Magnolia is a strange creature. I honestly can’t tell whether or not I should recommend it. There are some head-scratching moments, and there are also moments that are memorable and downright genius. Whenever I start to like it, I see its drawbacks. Whenever I start to dislike it, I remember it’s not that bad.

      In fairness, The First Movie was hardly perfect, yet it led to better Pokemon films down the road. And while Pokemon was considered to be another damning piece of marketing manipulation at the time, much like every other franchise coming around from the 80s onward, it's shown to be more successful than people were initially led to believe.
