eFilmCritic.com would like to invite you to take a stand against the media whores recommending garbage to you while stuffing their pockets with junket perks and inflating their egos into believing they are contributing to entertainment journalism. Softball critics like Earl Dittman and Shawn Edwards have to be stopped. Beyond their uneducated criticisms is a total lack of shame to suck up and suck off anyone in their path to see their names in print and on movie ads. This total lack of regard towards intelligent film journalism has been duping millions of Americans into seeing absolute garbage at the theaters and wasting their hard-earned dollars. It is time for this to stop.

By signing this petition, you are informing the studios and their publicity outlets that you will boycott any film that utilizes any of the following names on their trailers, print ads or TV spots.

Allen is a hyperbolic hack. Urge Buena Vista to keep Jim Svejda away from their films. For Gods sake dont allow Shawn Edwards and Paul Fischer to tell you what to see. Sign the petition today!
