The Film Snob*s Dictionary has won an especially big reception in Canada, mostly but not exclusively favo(u)rable. Click here for an evaluation by an appreciative Canadian film critic. And, if you want some more reading material, here’s a brief commentary by a snippy but benevolent Canadian, and here’s a brief commentary by a snippy and humo(u)rless Canadian who flatly asserts that “Office Space is not a film-snob cause célèbre.” Arrant nonsense, hoser!

Albini, Steve. Self-consciously difficult Chicago-based record producer who chafes at being called a producer, insisting that he merely “records” bands; best known for having produced—er, recorded—Nirvana’s studio swan song, In Utero, and for issuing snarky comments to the press when some of the album’s uncompromisingly raw songs were later remixed by other producers. Albini, who pushes the bounds of hard-rock iconoclasm by wearing glasses and having short hair, enhanced his outsider cred by playing guitar in the not-very-good hardcore bands Big Black, Rapeman, and Shellac. Man, that drum sound is a monster! No one knows mic placement like Albini.
