Gavia Baker-Whitelaw's Hello, Tailor is blog is pretty awesome. http://hellotailor.blogspot.com/

Seconded. She's awesome.

SFDebris, always good for a nice combination of searing insight and dick jokes. Remember, he's just a viewer with an opinion.

You either understand the joke or you don't, but they "aren't reviewers [they're] assholes".

Good anime bloggers are slim pickings and I'm not too in the scene myself, but I dig the variety this blog: https://overthinkinganimebullshit.wordpress.com/

I particularly this article on why Kill la Kill sucks (even though I enjoyed it some): https://overthinkinganimebullshit.wordpress.com/2014/04/02/klk-sux-redux-revision-of-kill-la-kill-is-unwatchably-bad/

E Minor of moesucks.com is my favorite anime blogger. His SAO posts are fantastic and the only thing that kept me going through that shitty show.

I'm going to have to go with the people at Red Letter Media, particularly their Half in the Bag series, which I always feel like I can trust their opinions on movies, in the sense that they don't seem to go into every movie horribly biased, usually. Though I don't think most of their stuff/material would be of interest to the...sensibilities of the people here (don't mean any offense, just their humor doesn't seem like something a lot of people here would enjoy, except that one other person who mentions them here).

YES! I was going to rec them! They are wonderful. They have a really strange, dark sense of humor that I enjoy immensely. And, they watch and enjoy and hate the same types of films I do (in BOTW and WOTW), so I get double the satisfaction of seeing people talk about movies and genres I know. If you are a B-movie or bad movie fan I rec their Best of the Worst series .

RLM would do better if one of their self-appointed BNF didn't sperg out about going onto to message boards, forums, and youtube channels of as many other reviewers as they can find, and telling them they ought to be more like RLM and how RLM is so great. That is probably their biggest hindrance. The second biggest is the creepy voiced reviews. Euch.

There are BNFs related to RLM?

A self-appointed one.

I didn't even know RLM had enough of a fandom to have an annoying BNF, but how is their fault they have annoying fans? Spooky and the NC, etc. have some really fucking annoying fans too.

Didn't say it was their fault, just said they'd do better without having some creep go over onto other people's places trashing the host and sperging out all over RLM instead. I haven't seen the other guys you mention have the same issue though, so it might just be RLM's bad luck to have attracted the asshole.

AYRT

Yeah, most of the Mr. Plinkett stuff ("creepy voiced reviews") is the reason I say most people here are probably not going to like most of their stuff

Yeah, they're very solid. The humor and metaplot aspects kind of get on my nerves but it's pretty easy for me to ignore it. And they have good opinions on movies. They're not perfect but they're better than almost all critics out there for me. They know a lot and they have good taste. I don't care so much about them being funny, but they're insightful.

The only other two film critics I halfway-trust these days are Wesley Morris, who writes for Grantland, and Eileen Jones, who is fucking wonderful but I'm not sure if she actually writes for anyone anymore. Most film critics are just... really bad.

I don't really visit TGWTG much nowdays since most of the reviewers I watch are over at chez too. Also, Kyle's review of Anonymous is one the funniest reviews I've seen in a while. Oh, so quotable. How can falcon if not posh?!

edit: misspelled 'anonymous'. I think I need a nap.

I loved Roger Ebert.

Still haven't been able to fully cope with his loss when it comes to finding movie reviews that are spot on with my way of thinking.

I generally like the AV Club reviews; even if I disagree with a reviewer there's generally really reasonable comments. But generally they're pretty solid stuff.

I also have a looong list of the best Jpop blogs, but that's not really relevant here.

I like Scamp on The Cart Driver. Especially the Mahouka review posts recently. They're hilarious.

He's pretty great. I love his Mahouka posts. His Mahouka posts as well as E Minor's are the only reasons I'm suffering through this shitty show.

I don't even watch Mahouka (I watched the first 5 minutes of the first episode and that was enough) but I read his posts about it anyway.

Tardis Eruditorum is a really interesting Doctor Who blog if you're the kind of person who likes verbosity and constant hyperactive references to post-modernism and alchemy and William Blake.

I like the movie reviews at Antagony & Ecstasy (http://antagonie.blogspot.com/) a lot. His Disney retrospectives are fantastic, even if I disagree with him on some of them. And his reviews of the terrible direct-to-video Disney sequels are frequently hilarious.
