: I just get frustrated when people put someone's creation down and they wouldn't be able to do it better, err if at all.
I mean, I can't cook past cooking up a box of macaroni & cheese, but that doesn't mean I can't tell what tastes shitty to my tongue. I don't really see what's different.
It's not that I don't appreciate the skill involved in doing either... nor is it a belief that I can necessarily do better. To be honest, I don't see how that standard applies.
To put it better, I can't design or build a freakin' house, but if I buy one and it collapses underneath me, I'm gonna bitch.
The argument that someone doesn't make movies can't form and express opinions about them is seriously fucked.
