Larry King: Film Critic

As I was watching TV last night and again as an ad on Sporcle today, I see that Larry King calls The Fourth Kind, "a remarkable movie that boggles the mind," and says, "This is Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind." When did this man become a reliable film critic? I'm not going to a movie because Larry King says so; in fact, I'm probably avoiding it.

I'm just waiting for this commercial. Larry King calls suspenders, "stylish," "more than just straps to hold your pants up," and "the wave of the future. They're not just for firefighters anymore!"

I didn't realize just anyone could be shown on TV as promoting a movie. Next thing you know, it'll be, "Paris Hilton calls Where the Wild Things Are 'Hot.' "
