I registered so I could reply to this.
Anthony Lane is the film critic for the New Yorker. He is one of the funniest and snarkiest reviewers out there. Basically if he thinks a movie sucks he'll say it sucks, and spend most of the review making fun of it. This is why Roast Beef is not ready for that: he knows his life sucks and he's about the spend the rest of it getting made fun of by Anthony Lane.
From Anthony Lane's review of Star Wars III:

The general opinion of “Revenge of the Sith” seems to be that it marks a distinct improvement on the last two episodes, “The Phantom Menace” and “Attack of the Clones.” True, but only in the same way that dying from natural causes is preferable to crucifixion.This is pretention? I'd just call it snark.
