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?
"(Snore...Snore...) OW!!!" Starlite yelled, something had hit her head while she was sleeping. She rubbed her eyes and then opened them. Her beak dropped. It was a oasis, the gras was go green u would say it was plastic, palm trees and fruit trees surrounded a crystal-clear river, the river was fed door a beautiful waterfall. If u could call it that, the waterfall was only a metre high. "Am i in heaven?" She whispered as she looked at the vis swimming in the crystal water. "No, because u don't belong there." She heard a familiar voice say, Skipper came swooping in via a vine, he was dripping....

It was dark when the team returned from a mission. They were exhausted though Skipper tried to hide it. In spite of himself he realized he was swaying on his feet. Private let loose a wide yawn and Kowalski kept falling alseep standing up AND walking at the same time. Rico snored every so often, his head hanging on his shoulder like a pillow.
The penguins half climbed, half fell down the ladder and collapsed onto their bunks. But their sweet imediate dreams were short-lived. Suddenly the alarm blared and four groggy penguins hobbled into a weak defensive position.
A cloaked figure of a four-legged...

"2:30." Liberty thought to herself. He should BE here door now! She looked nervously over her shoulder. Liberty was a young lioness. She'd recently moved to New York city from her quiet home pagina in Africa. Her sisters and one brother had all been taken to separate zoos. She'd been sent to Central Park Zoo. She was so lonely. So cold. Then she met a lively bunch of commando penguins.
She couldn't help but smile as she thought of how they'd first met. It had been raining. Liberty was moping around looking for anyone familiar. Suddenly a small pinguïn had dropped out of the trees and landed on her. He...

"Man, i am BEAT!", zei M/arlene walking back to her habitat. She was still a little confused about the happings of today."I cant be falling in love with Skipper... i just can't!...Must have been the sun, i mean if i hadnt noticed he had blue eyes before...NAH!!", as she has finished reussuring herself, she heard a rustle inside the bushes. Suddenly a sok was put over her mouth, as she fainted, a sack was put over her head.

"Well Skipper... Looks like tomorrow is all ready, we are a go in 200 hours...Skipper?" zei Kowalski looking over his notepad at his commando. Who was lost in his own world....

hallo guys! Merry Christmas! This is my first fanfic, and I’m a bit too late, I know. Haha, anyway, here it is. Hope u like it! ^^

The animals are shown to be merrily preparing for one of the most-awaited events of the year: Christmas.

A decorated periscope is seen surveying the whole zoo. Marlene’s putting up a Christmas sock, the chimps making some sort of statue out of cans, and Julien and his servants were dancing to the beat that’s loud as ever. Every animal in the zoo appear to have put up Christmas socks in their habitats. Kowalski pushes away the periscope and goes to where his...

Chapter 9:The Parade

The volgende morning, it was time. The alliance and the red kreeft army were getting ready to invade the parade and take over the city. The penguins, otters, and Nori was still tied and locked up in the other room. It was just about time for attack.

“Alright everyone, today is the day!” zei Hans, “Today we invade the parade and take over this city!”

"Skipper, that straal, ray was-" Kowalski said, before getting cut off, once again, door Skipper.
"Blowhole's technology, I know, Kowalski," Skipper said, becoming annoyed. "Now drop the subject, already."
"That straal, ray was mine!" Kowalski yelled, covering his beak quickly.
Skipper stopped in his tracks, and looked disbelievingly at the scientist. "That ray, was yours?" Skipper repeated. Kowalski looked at the ground, nodding slowly. "So u disobeyed my orders, Kowalski?"
"I'm sorry, Skipper!" Kowalski cried, looking at Skipper in anguish. "I couldn't help myself! Banning me from inventing is like banning...

 "W-who's there?"...
"W-who's there?"...
Seems like the sound came from over on the east side...

Skipper waddles slowly through the zoo. Nothing seemed to be out of place; everyone was sleeping encaged in their habitats under the crescent moon, of if nocturnal, minding their own business. The silence was so crushing that Skipper could hear his own hart-, hart thump unnaturally in his chest, like a percussionist playing the bongos.

Before anything else, I need to find witnesses and clues.

A whimper comes from above Skipper's head. He looks up to discover that he is standing right beside Leonard's tree.

Maybe I can get some info out of him; of...

Skipper and Rico brawled with Blowhole. Kowalski had time to create a portal to our HQ. As we escaped from my beautiful paradise, we saw Blowhole's and Skipper's crustacean warriors down. It was two against one. We knew we couldn't let Skipper and Rico down. So, we helped Skipper and Rico fight. It was a long fight. After a few hours, Blowhole was defeated. He fled swiftly into his HQ and zei that he will plan another plot to steal our weapons.

As we high-fived to our victory, we were thinking about something in Denmark that we forgot. THE LEMURS!

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...

Private walked cautionary near Kowalski and zei "When Skipper zei u can't drink it, it really was for your own good." soothing Kowalski a bit,"I know but he wont even allow me to look at it of read who it was from."Kowalski...

Chapter 2

Marlene was getting an ice pack for Private's sprained flipper. Private was looking over at her. His crush was starting to grow on him, and then Marlene got the ice pack.

"Here u go Private!" Marlene zei happily.

"Thanks Marlene." Private zei happily as well.

He was getting nervous around her. There was tension building up in his body. He wanted to say something but he just couldn't.

"Marlene, do you…by any chance…like anyone here?" Private asked.

What kind of a vraag was that? u dope. Private thought to himself.

"Sure. Everyone here is my friend. Well…mostly everyone." Marlene...

Indescribable, that's all Marlene could think when she saw what lied beneath Lilly's ribbon, it was so grotesque that Marlene had almost screamed in disgust, but she couldn't, she had to let the team rest. That was a night ago. Now they had to go find Herelde, the woman with the mirrors. When Skipper, Kowalski, and Rico woke up, Marlene was curled up in a fetal position, shaking and sweating. "Marlene, what happened to you?" asked Kowalski. Before Marlene could speak, Lilly started to talk, tightening her ribbon. "She merely had a nightmare, she should be fine," zei Lilly, giving Marlene a...

The monster charged at Skipper, with full intent on killing him. Skipper ran between the monster's legs and panted. "Rico!! Gimme all the weapons u have!!" yelled Skipper. Rico nodded his head and threw up all of their guns, knives, and chainsaws, but before Skipper could grab a hold on any of them, the monster slurped up all the weapons, except for a small knife. "Skippah!! We're gonna die!!" yelled Private, screaming and crying. Then, Skipper grabbed Private and smacked him as hard as he could. "Listen Private!! We can do this!! All we need to do is stick together!!" yelled Skipper. "Guys!!...
