Editor’s note: we asked contributing writer Amanda LaPergola to write up a review on either Snow White and the Huntsman or Prometheus. We told her it did not matter which movie she chose, just as long as she got in a review within a few days of the movie’s opening.

Clearly, we never learn our lesson.

Yesterday, a package arrived at Mary Sue Headquarters with a not from Amanda’s Mom (“Dear Miss Sue: Please excuse Amanda’s tardiness. She has been in a state of emotional turmoil ever since reading the advance reviews of Brave.”) and the following pages.

This post contains SPOILERS for Prometheus and Snow White and the Huntsman.

Amanda should totally write the script for Charlize’s next movie – I’m voting for a full length feature of My Little Ponies with CT as the fairy queen!

Not so different, eh? Guess the “angry” part is a part of Theron’s shtick.

And I loved how you wrote and drew the comparison review as a gloried elementary school project, with that large lined-paper.

LaPergola retains her title as best film critic ever. (Apologies, again, to Pauline Kael.)
