Patrick and his clique are a bunch of superficial morons who have no idea what they’re talking about a lot of the time. They blindly follow popular trends, do what everyone else does and say what everyone else says. They have no personal opinions and are too shallow to form any. Guy probably sat down and wrote that “analysis” by imitating other people’s reviews of other media, and then memorized it to recite at people. The discussion they have at that dinner is like that too. They’re just regurgitating rehearsed and memorized statements about some social issues they clearly know nothing about and don’t care at all.
