This all reminds me of when Sony got busted for using fake quotes from fake critics in their movie trailers. Hollywood just ain't what it used to be.

Considering the source, the quote shouldn't matter changed or not. I get Maxim because of a free four year subscription, but I don't even read it anymore because it's nothing more than 100+ pages of product placement with bad jokes and photoshopped women inserted throughout.
Isn't the gist of the quote the same? How is this newsworthy?
That is the \"most unbelievable\" story I have ever heard! \"It blew me away!\" Everyone knows movie quotes are usually so \"accurate and reliable!\"
Wow, talk about burning the idiot candle from both ends. Not only is this quote less informative to the FOUR people who don't know what this film is about, it's even more watered down and PATHETIC.
in the immortal words of lewis black,
FffffffffffffffFUCK!!!!!!!

Easter \"This movie is better than being nailed to a cross and then rising from the dead three days later!\"
I didn't even know that Maxim had a \"film critic.\" I always thought their \"reviews\" were just cut and pasted lines from press releases, like just about everything else in that rag.

Oh wow, it's double post day!

give me a break, please? first off, i don't care what you say about the movie in question, because it probably sucks like 99% of the shit hollywood has to offer week in and week out... i'm not going to see it anyway till it's either on dvd or cable at best (ie: part of an entertainment package i'm already paying for).
that said, do any of you actually listen to what the paid-for-critics have to say anyway? i sure as hell don't. there are plenty of sites out there with actual people's critiques out there.

\"This is the most terrifying thread of the new week. ***1/2\"
For decades, Peter \"You'll laugh till it hurts\" Travers has been doing copywriters' work for them with his breathless, blurb-ready film reviews in Rolling Stone. In the last few years, he has acquired a similarly shill-happy rival in the person of Maxim's Pete Hammond.
Since when is Maxim Magazine relevant? Is this 1998? And is this movie so bad that the only critic's quote they could get for the trailer was from Maxim?
