In January 2014, White was expelled from The New York Film Critics Circle for heckling director Steve McQueen

>In January 2014, White was expelled from The New York Film Critics Circle for heckling director Steve McQueen.

>McQueen had just accepted his prize for “12 Years a Slave,” presented by Harry Belafonte, when the interruption broke out.

>As soon as McQueen took the stage, White started shouting from his table at the back of the room. “You’re an embarrassing doorman and garbage man,” White boomed. “F—you. Kiss my ass.”

>McQueen either didn’t hear the comments or pretended not to. He thanked the critics group for honoring him with an award previously given to John Ford and Woody Allen, at which point White hissed “pulease.”

>White maintained his innocence, and characterized his expulsion as a “smear campaign”.

Who was in the wrong here?

The critics circle for being plebs

>critic criticizing someone

Sounds like he was just doing his job

>Chris Pratt haunts fanboy wet dreams in Spielberg’s dino franchise

>How many youngsters will see Chris Pratt in Jurassic World and deposit his image in their spank bank? One of pop culture’s dividends is the additional pleasures contained within innocuous merchandizing (ask Andy Warhol). Jurassic World is neither good or bad enough to be camp — its predictable action scenes are limp enough to call “damp” — but Pratt’s He-Man image as dinosaur roustabout Owen is the kind that firms-up any man’s resolve.

>Pratt’s Owen wears a leather utility vest over a denim shirt cuffed at his elbow to expose his sinewy forearms. His torso is cinched into dark pants that puff slightly at the hips, roomy enough to contain his strong haunches. And at the appropriate moment, Owen/Pratt strides forth carrying a rifle for his fight against a gargantuan dino-hybrid, the Indomitable Rex. It completes the virile image.

>The Jurassic World script doesn’t allow Pratt the personal charm — the wink — that Harrison Ford brought off as Indy, hero of many adolescent boys’ dreams. Pratt’s eyes are gentle, yet his stout-thewed crouch and voluptuous trapazoids overwhelm this formulaic movie — and Bryce Dallas Howard’s shrill, vapid Park supervisor. She’s unappealing as Owen’s love interest. Maybe a lesbian critic could try justifying her cold acting but who can say what hetero guys who see Jurassic World put into their spank banks? I bet it’s Owen.

>"You’re an embarrassing doorman and garbage man..."

Seriously, what did he mean by this?

>Pratt’s Owen wears a leather utility vest over a denim shirt cuffed at his elbow to expose his sinewy forearms. His torso is cinched into dark pants that puff slightly at the hips, roomy enough to contain his strong haunches.
jesus chrsit armond I get it, you're a fucking homo

If that seems a bit much don't read any of his stuff on BvS

It was transparent that the reason he gave that capeshit a pass was because he wants to spit roasted by the two leads. Lost all hope in him when he wrote a buzzfeed tier pre-release hype article about how sexy they are.

>As soon as McQueen took the stage, White started shouting from his table at the back of the room. “You’re an embarrassing doorman and garbage man,” White boomed. “F—you. Kiss my ass.”
damn
/ourguy/

>those insults
So impotent, and yet intriguing at the same time

>So impotent, and yet intriguing at the same time
that's because he's notjust raging, those are calm yet effective words uttered to unleash unrest and chaos.

Dude writes like a poet

>to unleash unrest and chaos
Is that just his entire M.O.? To rile people up?

The critic is always wrong. A critic doesn't make anything, he just passes judgment on what other people make.

It's literally the lowest job you can have, just barely above writing fan fiction for MLP furries.

Armond "Honorary" White

Sup Forums was glorious during this time.

>gay black conservative Christian

Its like he's a living meme

>To rile people up?
towards a goal, to make them see the truth. his voice is true and would get buried if he didn't do that.

I'm pretty sure he chose to be black just to trigger people.

Many critics were successful in their fields you ignoramus

Activate my Armonds

White is. Heckling people onstage is just being a pleb attention whore.

nope

Reminder that this glorious night was saved for posterity by the one and only The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson.

>name is "white"
>is black

he is a living contrarian

he has more film knowledge than pretty much any critic. you just have to pick and choose from his reviews and writing though. some of it is clearly bait and le ebin National Review trole, the rest is insightful and not hack shit like 99% of the rest of paid-off reviewers

...

he's a living pleb filter

...

The best insults are the ones that confuse you to the point where you keep thinking about them. Standard Sup Forums insults like faggot or autist do nothing.
