    Hate Mail of the Week

    By Kyle | December 28, 2012

    A classic:

    You stupid nasty bitch! What a horrendous, vicious review of The Guilt Trip which I and a lot of people including a good number of critics found entertaining, funny and moving.
    While most critics have said how Streisand looks 20-30 years younger than her age (she does, I saw her in person after a screening) you have the nerve to go there. You need the s**t slapped out of you but considering how much you are full of we’d be at it until after New Years.
    You are a piece of garbage who needs to go on a trip yourself- a one way one to hell. I hope you get there soon.

      Walt is an angry queen, isn’t he?

      Actual author of letter: Babs.

      C’mon, Kyle, get with the program. Kiss the rings, print raves, get a five-year, no-cut screenwriter’s contract.

      Santa Monica hot tub & Pac Ocean, margarita-enhanced sunsets; lotsa rentafriends, Mike Ovitz calling YOU for a job.

      What’s not to like?

      I mean, how long can you keep running that Bailey Savings & Loan?

      P.S.: Proof Babs was the author came from counting the tree rings.

      Well this guy just made your review of Guilt Trip a must-read. Didn’t see that coming…

      Just don’t say anything bad about Barry Manilow or you’ll really get Walt angry.

      A bitchy queen with an inexplicable love for Streisand. Way to fight the stereotypes, Walt.

      So it’s insulting to write that a woman who is 70 looks her exact age, which is 70? Why? I think that BS looks good, but she doesn’t look 20 or 30 years younger than her age.

      OK, presuming a lot, but Mr. Smith, you might have Gay Mafia hitmen looking for you. I think they won’t hurt you, but they just find you, follow you around 24/7, say “whatever” over and over again flashing the W hands sign, but still.
