They will ruin your writing. In truth, your review is a decent start to what could eventually be a very good piece of work. Take it to Tim or Eric for some hard-nosed editing. It's a bit overwritten. They will yank out stuff like "unique" (describing the script) and the lazy segues ("What's more"). Listen to them. They're good. Even more useful, re-read your piece from the perspective of a really critical douchebag. You'll quickly find easily fixable faults. Cole:

I am especially fond of this line: "...hope shimmers faintly beneath the neon slime of a strip club." Cole has a bright future ahead of him. Great writing.
