Snarkdance

There's quite a bit of persnickety snarking going around Park City, so let's collect the negativity in one place, breathe, and let go.... Freeloading celebs are easy to mock, and general indictments of the variety "Sundance has lost its cultural mojo" are dime a dozen. The smack talk gets juicier the more personal it gets: Terry Zwigoff is entertaining "a sophomoric audience," Al Gore and his soil erosion slide show is "the biggest hurdle" ever faced by an indie film, and Lou Reed himself calls Factory Girl "one of the most disgusting, foul things I've seen - by any illiterate retard - in a long time." Ouch. By comparison, it's almost quaint when the head of the MPAA ratings board calls the director of This Movie is Not Yet Rated "a little bit disingenuous." Here's the ultimate put-down for any attention addict: "In two years, nobody's going to remember that name; mark my words. But to be fair, two years from now, nobody's gonna remember mine either." Says who?
