Both really but I assume I'd be able to gather the second from your description of the first.

Sorry, you're right, he doesn't have to. What i mean is that when you said Of course you finish with a modified "personal taste subjective u cant insult my movies" line so maybe you're just disagreeing for the sake of it, and that i had avoided answering his criticisms, T&F had offered no real reasons for why he thought it was pretentious, so what exactly was i meant to answer to? how can i reject his label of pretentiousness without simply saying "ur wrong"?

You can either take on some of the common areas where 2001 is accused of being pretentious and disagree with those or ask him to clarify himself.
