I love Brad Jones.  Let me get that out of the way.  The Cinema Snob is perhaps my favorite Internet series of all time.  That being said, prose is not his strong suit.  I could see this working as a script, but as a novel?  The writing is redundant and obvious and the characters are almost indistinguishable from one another.  As this was self-published, there were a ton of typos.   I laughed at a few parts, but overall, I believe this would have benefitted greatly by having an editor.
