No Mark Kermode http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6Q5FESHol0
He looks like he's a cyborg from the 50s.

as I've said before his name is appropriate because he is full of shit.
Kermode doesn't watch TV, because he thinks it's "trivial". So why is he f**king on it then?

Because he's trivial too??????
I think he tells it like it is. Other critics are very poncey and pretentious. I like the way he does not hero worship Micheal Moore like so many others.

how much more poncey and pretentious can you get than Kermode?
Moviedrome introduced me to some ace films and Kermode had fantastic intros.

I read an article in the Evening Standard on how he was harassed by a gang of chavs on the Underground.
If I write anything 1% as amusing I'll be a happy man. I'll see if I can find it.
He is funny just sometimes accidentally as well as intentionally.
He thinks Richard Curtis films are funnier than the Big Lebowski. Does go on a bit but quite like him.
I like Mark Kermode. I want critics to be opinionated, that's what they are for. He is also entertaining in tandem with Simon Mayo.
Oh well. Maybe it's just me who doesn't like smug arseholes.
I don't like Kermode either.
Don't hate him though, I also like critics to be opinionated.
But he is a smug c**t.
