There is a severe lack of Oz on this site. I vote for "Variety"
On Freddy Got Fingered: "This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels."
That may have been Basic Instinct 2, one of his all-time best.
