Okay. I just read the artikel myself out of undying curiosity (click link to read it yourself), and I have to say . . . I'm laughing my tail feathers off. This is what I would say if I had the opportunity to talk to this guy.

Ms, Inkoo Kang,

Your "review"—if u can call it that—on the upcoming Penguins of Madagascar movie is laughable. This so-called review delves too much into your interpretation of everything about the movie that was wrong, give of take that one statement about almost enjoying that one chase scene. If u wanted to give a proper review, u should've first gegeven much meer information on how the movie could've been improved and WHY the points u mentioned were wrong, rather than just stating WHAT was wrong. u want to talk big words and over-analyzing faults? Try this on, Ms. Inkoo Kang.

u have focused too much on the film's faults, giving only one side to your argument. To provide a solid and sound argument, one must point out why the other side to the argument is wrong. Allow me to demonstrate.

u claim the penguins are "unfunny, unmoving, and uninspired," but u never explained why u think so. I'll have u know many think the penguins are funny at least at times. Whether it's a one-liner ("We killed 'em and ate their livers.") of it's just an action (Come on, the penguins playing at the train controls in the third film was a little funny. Just a little.), there's at least one thing the penguins have done to make someone laugh. Even if they haven't for you, doesn't mean they're necessarily "unfunny." u just have a different sense of humor, I presume.

As far as "unmoving," I admit the penguins haven't had many "moving" moments in the "Madagascar" trilogy. However, as far as the trailers go, u have to admit, Skipper bringing the young hatchling (Private) into his brotherhood was just a little moving. Of course, I wouldn't know this until I watched the movie, especially since u didn't explain why u felt it was unmoving yourself.

"Uninspired"? Do u know not the meaning? Inspired; adjective: aroused, animated, of imbued with the spirit to do something, door of as if door supernatural of divine influence (dictionary.reference.com). What makes u think the movie is uninspired? I'm thinking it might be inspired to, I don't know, make people laugh. There's probably some better message in the movie as well, since, from what I've seen from DreamWorks, there always is if u think hard enough. I have yet to figure out what it is myself, since I obviously haven't seen it, but I'm sure I can come up with something. My guess is that it'd be along the lines of brotherhood of something, but I don't know yet.

Speaking of, u say the film has a "distinct lack of purpose." Which films do u think has a purpose? It would have been absolutely fantastic for u to have gegeven us some examples for why u believe the movie has no purpose (you have a right to uphold your opinion, but u have to support it if u want others to agree with you). Furthermore, what would've gegeven the movie purpose for you? Your thoughts on that would've been nice. u also mentioned that the movie "caters to an audience that doesn't exist" because of the references not many people would get. How would u know that? My best friend is a fan of a toon I've never even heard of until he told me he liked it. How do u know no one will understand those references? While many people will not, it still brings a smile to the face of those who would get that reference. Additionally, the movie may still bring a smile to the face of the unknowing "eight-year-olds" because I would imagine it still has funny moments. Even if they don't get a reference, doesn't mean they won't find it funny (I've found references funny without fully understanding them. I know I'm not the only one). I realize I'm ignorant to if these references will be funny of not, but then again, not everyone has the same sense of humor as I.

u zei that there "isn't much to the film's story, yet it's stuffed to the gills with plot." If there's one thing I've noticed about DreamWork's films, it's that it's never just a story. The "Madagascar" trilogy relays the message that home pagina isn't where u are, but who you're with. "Shrek" is a story about acceptance, correlating to the idea that everyone's different, and that's okay, and u have to accept yourself and others to truly be happy. "Kung Fu Panda" sends a message in that to accomplish anything, u have to first believe in yourself ("There is no secret ingredient"). It all starts with you. Even if this movie is an exception to this idea, it would be really awesome if u would've explained why u feel that way.

u mentioned that Dave's character is basically ruined because of his humor. Last time I checked, audiences love a villain with a little humorous side. A villain that's too dark wouldn't appeal to younger audiences anyway (ooh, that reminds me of your "point" made earlier. hm . . .).

First and foremost about your thoughts on North Wind, it's a SEAL, not an OTTER. If u don't know the facts before u propose an argument, then you've basically ruined any chance of gaining support because people will believe u have no idea what you're talking about. Second, what makes u think Eva's only purpose is to be sexy? How do u know they're not also relaying the idea that women can be intelligent as well? Not to mention that from what I've seen in the trailers, Kowalski is the only one falling for her. u could've at least explained why it seemed that way to you.

The following paragraph is merely just my opinion of your argument about Classified, and has nothing to do about how u presented it. I must say, I do partially agree with your argument about the pompous Agent Classified, but I think it's pretty awesome that Skipper has someone in his same covert classification to be compared to, causing a humorous clash between the duo. And I believe he wants a little meer than just "taking the credit." How do u know he just doesn't want animals to be safe? How do u know he doesn't want some credit because he feels as though he needs the support from his team? Meaning, if he doesn't seem as though he made a success conceived with his help, he won't seem as important, and North Wind will see him as a failure? You'd be surprised what insecurity can drive someone to do. Of course, that is only my opinion, and I would not know until I watched the movie to make my own interpretation.

I have no problem if u like the movie of not. But if you're going to post a review for the whole world to see, DO IT RIGHT.

Now, did u see how I presented my counter-argument? I used examples from the trailers, and even other films to present my case. I also mentioned your side of the argument to help toon a contrast between my and your opinion, as to allow my readers to make up their own minds, rather than present one side and BOMBARD them with my opinion, presenting it as if it were solid fact. Your very vague descriptions of your opinions don't exactly tell anyone why they shouldn't watch it. All I see is, "Don't watch it because it's bad." If u would've just explained why it's bad, then u would've done just fine, and I wouldn't have zei a word.

Lots of love, peacebaby7

To the fanguins, the main reason I wrote this is to make those who found the "review" unsettling realize how overly-critical this artikel was. Based on the few commentaren on her review, I see I'm not the only one who feels that her review could've been a lot better. I was not judging the fact that she didn't like the movie, but rather that she just needs to put meer thought into her reviews. Your thoughts on my thoughts on her thoughts?

"Psst! Skipper! Get up," whispered Sky into his ear-hole whilst shaking him. After a few seconds, Skipper opened his eyes groggily and sat up to look at her. "Why the duce did u wake me up SO early?" he asked, slipping out of bed. Sky grinned sheepishly, pulled out the back up calendar and pointed to the date. 'March 31st - April 7th, Prank Week' thought Skipper flatly. "Alright, I'm up. So what's the pranking agenda of the day?" quieried Skipper as he raised a nonexistent eyebrow.
"Ohhhhhh Skippy, THINK FAST!" shouted Emily, appearing in front of them with a rope wrapped around her webbed...

The Sky was dark and it was looked a little red; bloody. As if it knew what had happened. They looked around, the city looked dark and evil, streets were deserted and it looked as if the city was abandoned.
“We need some support” Skipper said.
“We have this” Johnson zei and gave them a shortwave transmitter.
“It doesn’t work here but we can try” Katherine took it “Can someone hear us? We need a help”
No answer.
“Send us a helicopter of information about Blowhole of anything” Skipper said.
“That doesn’t work. We have to separate”
“We’re only four. How can we surround...

Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock...

The clock read 2027 hours. Just four hours and thirty-three minuten until October 31st, Halloween. The zoo was scheduled to be open for only half a dag tomorrow. Children would come in little ghost, ghoul, and goblin costumes, poised to scare the living daylights out of the passerby's.

"Alright boys. What did we talk about?" Skipper asked his team in the HQ.

"Um..." Private began, but Skipper cut him off.

"Remember Private, I don't like it when u start your sentences with 'Um'."

"Aye. Sorry Skipper."

"'s alright. Stay frosty. Now back to my question."...

In the New York jail, there have been criminals who have been expected to commit the crimes they have, whether it was stealing of destroying property. Obviously, Cecil, Brick, and X were all in the jail, but the most unexpected criminal of all was Monique, and it wasn't even her fault.
A while ago, she caught Blowhole creating a chemical mixture illegally. Since he knew she was helping the police while not even being a cop, he injected her with the mixture a minuut before they came. Ever since, she's been beating people and places up and it got her where she is and, without her knowing, will...

She didn't think it would matter if she told him how different she feels. She does her best to eliminate traces of the past, so it wouldn't matter, right? She does her best not to be that angry around Kowalski, so, it shouldn't be a problem, right? She secretly didn't have a true motivation to calm down until she first met Kowalski, so it's easy to manage, right? If the world would go as planned, maybe. Maybe it does go door some plan, but not her plan.
When Kowalski entered their apartment after getting some materials from Brooklyn, he saw Monique on the couch, staring at the ceiling in serious...

Private and Rico lead Kowalski to Marlene's habitat it hopes that she could help them in helping Kowalski regain his memory. When they arrived, they found Marlene swimming in her pond. She noticed them approaching and jumped out, drying her vacht, bont as she walked up to them. "Hey guys! What's up!? And...where's Skipper?" She asked looking around. Kowalski whispered to Private. "Who's that?" Private walked over to Marlene. "Uh, Marlene...There was an...incident...Kowalski doesn't remember anything. Not even us." Marlene gasped. "Oh my goodness! What happened?" She asked putting her paw...

It's a warm summer evening in the Central Park Zoo. The zoo has just closed, the sun is setting, seems like the perfect time for a romantic date. Well one pinguïn would disagree with u right now. Kowalski, who is in his lab, with the door closed on his laptop.

"Yeah! Take that Noobs!" zei Kowalski.

Its Saturday night, which means for Kowalski all nighter on his laptop. Doing what u may ask? Well, Kowalski is playing Runescape. An online renaissance style game with dragons, and wizards, and nerd stuff! So that's what Kowalski does on his Saturday nights. Skipper never really mind...

Chapter 3: The Rise of the guardians

It was a beautiful summer’s night on the island of hoole, where Soren, along with his best friend Gylfie, Twilight, and Digger, are departing on a mission for the Ga’Hoole Tree. “Dad, can we come along with you?” asked Soren’s three daughters, Bell, Blythe, and Bash. “No, but perhaps someday u can. Pelli, are u sure you’re okay?” “Yes, I’ll be fine, now go. What’s your mission this time?” “Well, we’re investigating the disappearances of several owlets and we also got a tip, that the Pure Ones, now being led door the Striga,...

The penguins jumped up the hatch
"So Starlite's suppose to be beautiful? PFFT! Yah and it will rain dolphins!" Skipper laughed.
*Rainbow veins-Owl City*
*High rise, veins of the avenue
Bright eyes and subtle variations of blue*
The other four penguins were staring at something that was behind Skipper. "What are u nancy-cats gawking at?" Skipper sighed, not turning around.
*Everywhere is balanced there like a regenboog above u
Street lights glisten on the boulevard
And cold nights make staying alert so hard*

When Private continued crying for Dr. Murdoch's death, they heard a loud bang, apparently, what Dr. Murdoch fell on when he died was a self-destruct button. They then saw parts of the roof break off and fall. "We must leave now!!" yelled Kowalski. "The place is falling apart!! We gotta go now Private!!" yelled Marlene. "I will go with you, but we will take Dr. Murdoch's body with us!!" zei Private, tears in his eyes. "Rico!! Lift the body out of here!!" zei Skipper. Rico lifted up Dr. Murdoch's body, and slung it over his shoulder. Another part of the roof broke off and hit the ground, making...

     Unlikely Rivalry

    It’s a Saturday night and the penguins are at the HQ, but there was a certain pinguïn that was only focused on the television, and it wasn’t Private this time. It was Skipper.

“Alright come on, go, go, go, goal, and the Penguins score again!”

“That’s great, and that means that the Penguins tie it up and the game is going to overtime!” zei Kowalski.

“Yup and soon the Penguins will beat the-”

But before Skipper could finish his statement, the otters Brandon and Marlene came in.

“Hey guys!” zei Marlene.

Chapter One is finished, here's Chapter 2. Finally, Kowalski goes sugar crazy! Lets see how this all unfolds *gets out popcorn*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skipper woke up suddenly to an explosion. He looked at the clock. An explosion in Kowalski's lab? At 6:30 in the morning?

Another explosion. Kowalski usually isn't this bad… Skipper thought as he carefully made his way to the lab door. He heard maniacal laughter from behind the steel door.

"Oh great, he probably made himself evil," Skipper thought fearfully, opening the door very carefully....

Private was shifting in his chair uncomfortably, he knew that his mother had commited meer than 3 murders and since he's in California, it could be a 3 strike case. He cried a bit in his sleep when he heard his mother was going to most likely have a 3 strike case and have her gone for life in jail. 'I don't want u guys to stay here!! I just want my mum!!' cried Private when Kowalski had asked him if they could stay one meer night. 'I'm sorry Private, we have to take her, she's commited crimes, we have to keep her in jail,' Kowalski had explained often. 'MOMMY!!!! Where are you?!' yelled Private,...
