Okay. I just read the مضمون myself out of undying curiosity (click link to read it yourself), and I have to say . . . I'm laughing my tail feathers off. This is what I would say if I had the opportunity to talk to this guy.

Ms, Inkoo Kang,

Your "review"—if آپ can call it that—on the upcoming Penguins of Madagascar movie is laughable. This so-called review delves too much into your interpretation of everything about the movie that was wrong, give یا take that one statement about almost enjoying that one chase scene. If آپ wanted to give a proper review, آپ should've first دیا much مزید information on how the movie could've been improved and WHY the points آپ mentioned were wrong, rather than just stating WHAT was wrong. آپ want to talk big words and over-analyzing faults? Try this on, Ms. Inkoo Kang.

آپ have focused too much on the film's faults, giving only one side to your argument. To provide a solid and sound argument, one must point out why the other side to the argument is wrong. Allow me to demonstrate.

آپ claim the penguins are "unfunny, unmoving, and uninspired," but آپ never explained why آپ think so. I'll have آپ know many think the penguins are funny at least at times. Whether it's a one-liner ("We killed 'em and ate their livers.") یا it's just an action (Come on, the penguins playing at the train controls in the third film was a little funny. Just a little.), there's at least one thing the penguins have done to make someone laugh. Even if they haven't for you, doesn't mean they're necessarily "unfunny." آپ just have a different sense of humor, I presume.

As far as "unmoving," I admit the penguins haven't had many "moving" moments in the "Madagascar" trilogy. However, as far as the trailers go, آپ have to admit, Skipper bringing the young hatchling (Private) into his brotherhood was just a little moving. Of course, I wouldn't know this until I watched the movie, especially since آپ didn't explain why آپ felt it was unmoving yourself.

"Uninspired"? Do آپ know not the meaning? Inspired; adjective: aroused, animated, یا imbued with the spirit to do something, سے طرف کی یا as if سے طرف کی supernatural یا divine influence (dictionary.reference.com). What makes آپ think the movie is uninspired? I'm thinking it might be inspired to, I don't know, make people laugh. There's probably some better message in the movie as well, since, from what I've seen from DreamWorks, there always is if آپ think hard enough. I have yet to figure out what it is myself, since I obviously haven't seen it, but I'm sure I can come up with something. My guess is that it'd be along the lines of brotherhood یا something, but I don't know yet.

Speaking of, آپ say the film has a "distinct lack of purpose." Which فلمیں do آپ think has a purpose? It would have been absolutely fantastic for آپ to have دیا us some examples for why آپ believe the movie has no purpose (you have a right to uphold your opinion, but آپ have to support it if آپ want others to agree with you). Furthermore, what would've دیا the movie purpose for you? Your thoughts on that would've been nice. آپ also mentioned that the movie "caters to an audience that doesn't exist" because of the references not many people would get. How would آپ know that? My best friend is a پرستار of a دکھائیں I've never even heard of until he told me he liked it. How do آپ know no one will understand those references? While many people will not, it still brings a smile to the face of those who would get that reference. Additionally, the movie may still bring a smile to the face of the unknowing "eight-year-olds" because I would imagine it still has funny moments. Even if they don't get a reference, doesn't mean they won't find it funny (I've found references funny without fully understanding them. I know I'm not the only one). I realize I'm ignorant to if these references will be funny یا not, but then again, not everyone has the same sense of humor as I.

آپ کہا that there "isn't much to the film's story, yet it's stuffed to the gills with plot." If there's one thing I've noticed about DreamWork's films, it's that it's never just a story. The "Madagascar" trilogy relays the message that ہوم isn't where آپ are, but who you're with. "Shrek" is a story about acceptance, correlating to the idea that everyone's different, and that's okay, and آپ have to accept yourself and others to truly be happy. "Kung Fu Panda" sends a message in that to accomplish anything, آپ have to first believe in yourself ("There is no secret ingredient"). It all starts with you. Even if this movie is an exception to this idea, it would be really awesome if آپ would've explained why آپ feel that way.

آپ mentioned that Dave's character is basically ruined because of his humor. Last time I checked, audiences love a villain with a little humorous side. A villain that's too dark wouldn't appeal to younger audiences anyway (ooh, that reminds me of your "point" made earlier. hm . . .).

First and foremost about your thoughts on North Wind, it's a SEAL, not an OTTER. If آپ don't know the facts before آپ propose an argument, then you've basically ruined any chance of gaining support because people will believe آپ have no idea what you're talking about. Second, what makes آپ think Eva's only purpose is to be sexy? How do آپ know they're not also relaying the idea that women can be intelligent as well? Not to mention that from what I've seen in the trailers, Kowalski is the only one falling for her. آپ could've at least explained why it seemed that way to you.

The following paragraph is merely just my opinion of your argument about Classified, and has nothing to do about how آپ presented it. I must say, I do partially agree with your argument about the pompous Agent Classified, but I think it's pretty awesome that Skipper has someone in his same covert classification to be compared to, causing a humorous clash between the duo. And I believe he wants a little مزید than just "taking the credit." How do آپ know he just doesn't want animals to be safe? How do آپ know he doesn't want some credit because he feels as though he needs the support from his team? Meaning, if he doesn't seem as though he made a success conceived with his help, he won't seem as important, and North Wind will see him as a failure? You'd be surprised what insecurity can drive someone to do. Of course, that is only my opinion, and I would not know until I watched the movie to make my own interpretation.

I have no problem if آپ like the movie یا not. But if you're going to post a review for the whole world to see, DO IT RIGHT.

Now, did آپ see how I presented my counter-argument? I used examples from the trailers, and even other فلمیں to present my case. I also mentioned your side of the argument to help دکھائیں a contrast between my and your opinion, as to allow my readers to make up their own minds, rather than present one side and BOMBARD them with my opinion, presenting it as if it were solid fact. Your very vague descriptions of your opinions don't exactly tell anyone why they shouldn't watch it. All I see is, "Don't watch it because it's bad." If آپ would've just explained why it's bad, then آپ would've done just fine, and I wouldn't have کہا a word.

Lots of love, peacebaby7

To the fanguins, the main reason I wrote this is to make those who found the "review" unsettling realize how overly-critical this مضمون was. Based on the few تبصرے on her review, I see I'm not the only one who feels that her review could've been a lot better. I was not judging the fact that she didn't like the movie, but rather that she just needs to put مزید thought into her reviews. Your thoughts on my thoughts on her thoughts?
     Fallout Chapter 2: Following in his Footsteps

Private stepped outside and was greeted سے طرف کی the bright sun. He’s never seen a light so bright before due to the fact he’s lived inside an underground والٹ all his life. His eyes were able to adjust to the bright sunlight, and as soon as he did he saw the outside world. Wasteland, everything around him was destroyed. Roads, nearby houses, the landscape, everything. Private followed the road, thinking it would lead him to where his father is. As he’s waddling, he can’t help but to look at all the destruction around...

I know what you're probably thinking. Why haven't I told her yet? Why haven't I کہا anything to anybody about it? Well, that comes later. Anyway, most of the afternoon isn't that important. It was what happened later on that night that really worried me.

My team and I were away in our bunks, sleeping soundly. Well, at least my team was. Every time I came close to finally drifting into a slumber, I could see Dr. Deranged coming at me with one of those needles and injecting me with some kind of poison. Eventually, I ended up lying on my back staring at the ceiling. I know it's crazy—what reason...

(my first in a series of episode style پرستار fictions. and سے طرف کی that, i mean, the sort of stuff you'd see in an episode)


April 1st, 2013.

The Penguins woke up early that morning. Skipper watched the rest of his team tiredly crawl out of bed. Kowalski was first, followed سے طرف کی Private, and Rico....well, he just sort of rolled out of بستر and hit the floor. He was still asleep.

Several attempts to wake him up were made until Private had the bright idea of placing a مچھلی near Rico's head, intending for him to eat it when the crazed bird woke up, but just before he could place it on the stone floor, Rico's...

Dr Blowhole gazed calmly at the moniters. There was nothing, absolutly NOTHING, going on anywhere. He was starting to get bored. He hadn't schemed against the penguins in a while.
He growled and spun towards the lobsters. There was no plan.

Unless...

Yes. He felt it. It stared at the very corner of his mind and crept slowly along until he was consumed سے طرف کی it. A new plan!
"Lobsters!!" He yelled, smiling slyly.

are as low as the weakest of tides.
But dull as آپ are, pay attention!...

He was just a پینگوئن, پیںگان with a growing depression. Not a word in the world could take the weight of the infliction off his shoulders. He was a پینگوئن, پیںگان who just needed to run away and have a good cry. But he wouldn't let that happen. He knew he couldn't. I'm a man.I'm a man. He told himself that so many times. Now he walked, head hanging, shoulders drooped. Here could be found no glory, no spirit of freedom, no lack of affliction. Only the mark of an outcast, the weight of regection and hate were seen. Rain clouds were drawn to him overhead. Slowly raindrops began to fall. Not after long rain...

Sorry you, always have to wait so long, I keep struggling to decide what happens اگلے and the it's power outages, exams, etc. All of the sudden my computer won't let me on fanpop and I have to use my dad's computer.

Skipper: Hey, the hatch finally opened!
Marlene: There's the braniac!

They all went for him, but as they jumped 1 سے طرف کی 1 Kowalski paralyzed them. And once the king froze Mort jumped onto his (Skipper's) feet, knowing that Julien can't kick him away now, then he got frozen too.

Julien: Show's آپ for touching the feet!

Kowalski: That's everyone! Wait! I'm missing one!

“Sorry about that compadre. Not too much I can do about him. Anyway, we are going to help آپ get over this.” Skipper told Kowalski after Julien’s attempted interference. “But how?” Kowalski asked. “Ugh! Enough Kowalski! I’ve had enough of your ‘buts’!” Private suppressed a giggle. “Private! Do آپ have to giggle at every ‘but’ reference?” Skipper asked the young cadet angrily. “Sorry sir.” Private replied. “What do آپ want to do Kowalski?” Skipper asked his lieutenant. “Wallow in self-pity…” Kowalski muttered.

The pengins began to proceed their journey before the sun came up to spare themselves from the blistering sun for awhile. That morning the heat was untoleratentable. سے طرف کی eleven Rico couldn't take walking anymore, so he slid on his belly.


As they inclined up a ہل, لندن Private's eyes randomly began to light up. He daydreamed off into the distance. It wasn't long before Rico and Kowalski joined him in his gaze.


"What are آپ boys looking at? I don't see anything." Skipper questioned.

Note: This is not the final chapter. There's going to be one یا maybe a couple more. I hope I get مزید تبصرے this time, because last time I didn't get as many تبصرے as anticiapated. Please, comment, if آپ wish, آپ don't have to, though.

The اگلے دن Skipper went fishing again, and Private was alone. Private took the diary and tried to take off from where he had left off.

No that wasn't it. He finally reached it.

Damion's eyes were as wide as his jaw that had dropped in terror. His tight gripp loosened until Private fell to the icy ground.

Damion fled like a coward, but Private couldn't blame him. Jeff raced up and they both ran for their lives.
A: "Private, are آپ okay?!"
She pushed through the paniced crowd to Private, but she still couldn't reach him. All she could do was watch in terror as he laid on the ground getting trampled سے طرف کی the absentminded, frightened crowd.

Private got on his flippers, but struggled to get to his feet. Then he heard her angelic voice,...

As the figure got closer Private shut his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Skipper emerged out of the fog and rushed to Private's side.
S: "Private! Private, wake up! Please speak to me!"
Skipper put his head to Private's ice cold chest. A faint heartbeat caught his attention. His raced through the treacherous blizzard. He concluded his sprint when they reached a cave. Skipper held Private tight in his trembling flippers. He strode deeper into the cave with Private in his grasp firmly. Even though the immense cave seemed dank and mysterious, Skipper felt comfortable in it. After all, this was...

Meanwhile, back at the بندر habitat
   Julien kept tossing and turning as he slept. He was having a nightmare, but it started out as a great dream. Julien was laughing as he ran through a familiar part of Madagascar. He was having fun exploring and partying with his subjects. All of his subjects cheered as he danced to the beat. He encouraged everyone else to dance with him. Julien watched as the other lemurs started to dance as well, except for one young male ruffed بندر who sat under the darkness of a tree. His body was white. He has patches of black on his tail, paws, hips, face,...

“Ah huh, Bingo!” Kowalski کہا proudly.

“What is it Kowalski?” Skipper asked as he moves near Kowalski.

“I have completed my energy converter and it’s now ready for action” Kowalski said.

“So what does it do? I hope this gotta be good” Skipper crossed his flippers

“It will convert negative energy to positive energy and vice versa” Kowalski replied.

Skipper couldn't really describe it, the car crashing into him, he didn't feel much, all he could describe the feeling as being: "Like a cork popping out of a wine bottle". He looked around and all he saw were cars zooming across the road, then realized his team was gone, he walked around endlessly. "Well it seems we got separated سے طرف کی that bump," کہا Skipper. "Gotta get back to the HQ, they're probably worried to death about me," کہا Skipper. Skipper then looked around and saw a map on the ground, he picked it up and looked at the سٹریٹ, گلی he was at.
