He isn't taken seriously by the film establishment, why would he be taken seriously in lit? His opinions are all bad and he is a gay fedora furry, so even within the framework of critique he doesn't represent anything like the body of move watchers, to say nothing of readers.
Great Critics come in two varieties, there are those who can speak directly to a plebeian audience with whom they share similar value and tastes, and earnestly edify them as to whether a film satisfies those or not, and then there are those who are knowledgable and persuasive to the point of being able to convince their audiences to adjust their own values and tastes in film. To draw examples in Film, this is your average youtube slop reviewer and RLM, respectively.
YMS is neither. He is a sort of shitlib novelty critic like a left-leaning Mauler, hollow and formulaic nitpicking to satisfy a sort of constructed objective idea of what films are supposed to be that falls apart if applied to any work of any actual meaning.
Well, what exactly does a person like this bring to literature? Do you think he's going to read Dune and give a point by point whiny breakdown of everything wrong with how Herbert writes women, or Paul's metamorphosis from aimless child to prophet? What could this mooncalf possibly have to say that you would find interesting on any subject? What experiences has he had in his life that make his dog-eyed opinion on anything great men wrote relevant? Nothing of course. I would not be surprised to learn that he is functionally illiterate.
Do not waste your time thinking about people like this.
