How much wrong stuff can fit in one movie review?
Thirty some odd years ago, when Joe Adamson wrote one of the seminal texts of animation history, “Tex Avery: King of Cartoons”, Mr. Adamson coined a phrase that just about summed up the sloppiness of documenting animation history up to that point: he said the writer might as well have been writing about the Myrna Loy Westerns of Alfred Hitchcock. Reading this very funny compilation of “Wordplay” review errors gave me that same Myrna Loy Western vibe. Thanks to Trip Payne for compiling it…. and gee, you didn’t even include our favorite from the Star-Ledger review about Shortz hosting the Stamford tournament every weekend.
