Groveling Sycophant

"We (and you) were none too pleased when Ben Lyons joined Ben Mankiewicz as the host for At the Movies earlier this year, particularly when we considered Lyons' track record as something of a half-wit Richard Roeper to Mankiewicz's low-rent Roger Ebert. And while Mankiewicz has settled in relatively well in the last six weeks, we continue to cringe at the sight and sound of Lyons fluffing away at Hollywood loins in his blurb-fertile reviews.


"Still, we knew he was a hack; what we didn't know (at least to the extent we do today) was the garish, staggering extent of his starfucking." -- from Stu Van Airsdale's completely justified slice-and-dice of a posturing showbiz toady.

Yeah, but I think Mank is less ready for prime time than Lyons.


AND LYONS MUST PULL MAD SQUACK.

And isn't that ALL there is to aspire to in life?

Man, that article is a total evisceration. Lyon's just got publicly circumcised three times,

Oh, and yeah ... he sucks.

I didn't think it was possible for Stu to be funnier and more biting since setting aside his own independent site for Defamer, but man, that is funny.

So a sycophantic starfucker does well by being a sycophant who star-fucks and has the pictures to prove it? Shocking ...

I'm dissapointed at you, Lex. I figured you, of all people would be the first to point out how much Lyons owns for hanging with famous people and getting all the hot babes.

In any case, why is it so bad that the guy who got a job in sho biz is actually trying to enjoy it too?

If it's kosher to shout our death threats about Barack Obama, then I feel totally justified in saying that someone should kill Ben Lyons. He is everything I hate about everything: smug, talentless, boring and the beneficiary of garden variety nepotism. And he probably does get mad squack, which is why I want him dead. Dead. I hope he reads this (right) and becomes upset, if only for a moment, at the idea that there is someone out there who wants to see his lights snuffed out, because I'm pretty sure that he gets his balls licked all day long. If I saw him crossing the street I would accelerate.

Ben Lyons has been spotted texting throughout entire films.

MilkMan, I'm sure if Lyons read this (assuming he has nothing better to do in between getting mad douch and hanging with the 'lezbz) he probably wouldn't give a fuck what a raging jealous lunatic idiot like yourself thinks.

That was simply uncalled for.

I don't even ask for autographs, so this star-fucker makes my skin crawl.

"At the Movies"-- it's just a name now, isn't it? No one who knows or cares mistakes it for the original, or even for the half-baked real thing it's been in recent times. Neither Ben is an actual, legit "film critic" or even "film reviewer" (a distinction my old journalism prof taught me). Sadly, the masses will probably be taken in by the name alone. Reminds me of 1974, when the manager of Fleetwood Mac, during a particularly troubled period in the band's history, formed a bogus "Fleetwood Mac" and mounted a national tour. Sold tickets, naturally. The real band later sued and won. But I don't see that happening here. Alas.

Ben Lyons might not care what a lunatic like me thinks, but you obviously do. Suck it, Roman. Suck it down to the root and make yourself vomit. Then smear it all over your face. When you're done doing that, give Ben Lyons a call and ask him if he'll come over and clean you up by whizzing on your splattered mug. And then, when he's done, suck it again, down to the root, choke on it, and die. Yeah, I'm a jealous lunatic. I'm 400 pounds and I live in my mommy's basement. I'm a virgin and unemployed. I take medication five times a day. My face is covered with psoriasis and my pubic hair is longer than my schwanz. That's who I am, Roman. And until Jeff bans me from this site I'm going to come here every day since I have nothing better to do and wish death on nutbaggers like you and Ben Lyons. And trust me, I mean it. I really do. Because I don't care about myself, so why should I give a fuck about Ben Lyons or you? I am without empathy. I am an anti-humanist. People like Ben Lyons are shit-stains and the only thing worse than a shit-stain is the person who doesn't see anything wrong with shit-stains. I'm talking about you, Roman. I'll be at the corner of Wilshire and Barrington today at 530, waiting at the bustop. I have a beard and I'm wearing a blue shirt with black pants. Why don't you meet me there and I'll show you how crazy I am. I've been known to try and strangle my mommy with a foot long Subway Sandwich.

Listening to Ben Lyons rave about EAGLE EYE is about the most frustrating thing I've ever watched. Especially when he cites Rosario Dawson as having a great supporting role...

MilkMan: Thanks, dude! That's the first time I've gotten a boner this week. (It's these damn anti-depressants. The shrinks caution that you may experience "delayed ejaculation," but they don't mention that your entire nether-regions will become numb-- "Welcome To the Monkey House," anyone? Anyone?) I can't remember, because I have no short-term memory and my long-term memory is pretty fucked also, whether I've insulted you or agreed with you in the past. But the main thing is that I'm now going to take this hard-on over to the Kristen Scott-Thomas website, there to achieve the release that my proctologist tells me is essential to the health of my prostate gland.

Stu Van Airsdale needs to STFU. No one in this rotten business is a more an arrogant prick who truly believes he's better than anyone else. If Ben Lyons wasn't related to Jeffrey Lyons no one would give a rat's ass. When Van Airsdale has done anything besides criticize what other people are doing I will start rethinking my disgust. So far that hasn't happened. Defamer, oh how the mighty have fallen. It used to be such a great site. Now it's a bunch of self-serving pricks with their thumbs up their asses. Yawn and puke.
