Misanthropy & Entropy, Inc.

Steven Spielberg is a fucking pussy and "War of the Worlds" is absolutely AWFUL.

Not everything needs to end with a hug.

My viewing companion and I compiled, easily, a list of 20 actors who would have been a better fit for the lead role in this film. Here they are, alphabetically:

• Ben Affleck
• Kevin Bacon
• Antonio Banderas
• Nicolas Cage
• George Clooney
• David Duchovny
• Laurence Fishburne
• Jamie Foxx
• Cuba Gooding, Jr.
• Ethan Hawke
• Hugh Jackman
• Greg Kinnear
• Viggo Mortensen
• Edward Norton
• Bill Paxton
• Dennis Quaid
• Gary Sinise
• Will Smith
• Billy Bob Thornton
• Denzel Washington

In a similar vein, here is a list of five directors named David who would have done a better job:

1. David Cronenberg
2. David Fincher
3. David Koepp (one of the credited screenwriters on this)
4. David Lynch
5. David Zucker

Independence Day is significantly better in nearly every category.

AVIOD AVOID AVOID.
