Critique Challenge Winners
Critics and critiques in general are held up as many things. They are lauded for their insight into art, allowing the masses to understand why a painting, play, book or movie are important. And many critiques, the best, we feel, can be filled with the critic's personal tone while remaining objective. But critics are also often despised by artists as misunderstanding or misclassifying their works. Critics wield a lot of power, just look at Rotten Tomatoes. It just takes one bad review to tank almost any type of art.

No wonder our Creators suggested a Challenge such as this- fairytales aren't merely the domain of Disney or the Brothers Grimm. They are woven into our thoughts, sung and whispered into our minds while we are still babies. They are what we fall asleep to and dream about. They are the engines of our earliest creativity.
