"Johnny Betts is a rude 'abnoxious' jerk who needs to be 'punced' in the face."- A grammatically-challenged non-fan  

MOVIE MINUTIAE

I'm an opinionated guy; I don't deny it. And I obviously see a lot of movies. And if you know me, then you also know that I feel a lot of people in Hollywood think a little too highly of themselves and need to be brought down a notch or two. So what is Movie Minutiae? I have some Mississippi-educated friends who have never heard of the word "minutiae" so here's my official definition:

Main Entry: mov·ie mi·nu·ti·ae
Pronunciation: 'mü-vE ma-'nü-shE
Function: noun

: Johnny Betts' musings and editorials regarding movies, the movie business, and minor movie details you might not have thought about otherwise.


If you've never heard of the word, then you just learned something, and part of the purpose of this section has been fulfilled. Let me give you a fair warning though - you won't always like or agree with what I say. One moment I'll give you my opinion on sequels, and then I might turn around and make fun of Tom Cruise's height. But I promise to always be original and entertaining, and I'll do my best to give you something to rally behind or think about. Whatever the case, always keep in mind that this is just my opinion, you could be wrong.
