Well, poster Sweet Tea, I think that possibly it may have a little bit of something to do with the manner, that is, the way in which he writes the posts that he makes, wherein (to make an analogy) sentence fragments swell outward, expanding into full clauses, sentences, and finally gigantic comma-spliced monstrosities, like twenty frayed ropes merged into one. This is of course setting aside the Weltschmerz derived from the heedless needless and creedless obscurantism commonly displayed within his writings, and the beef many of the more critically fluent posters on Something Awful have with his actual conclusions, and in addition there is the deranged aspect of shouting into a void that often happens whenever people attempt to interact with him, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal symptoms. i would advise all people that "get" SMG to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.

Weltschmerz is a fetish where youre sexually aroused by thinking about the pus/fluids/seeps that come from welts and similar wounds

like say you have an idea about hot dogs, if the idea itself is true to our conception of hot dogs then do you have to write it in any way or respond to people criticizing it for it to be worth posting? like i said i disagree with him often but it's unrealistic to expect him to respond diligently to the dogpile on top of him in every thread

Because his gimmick is extremely funny in bad threads full of griping manchildren, and it makes the people who can't be funny even on accident insanely furious that someone would come along and ruin their idiot slapfights about canon
No lie, when they started posting 'Current Releases' I spent a few weeks convinced it was a really well done subtle parody of terrible internet film reviewers and that there would be some kind of amazing payoff after a couple of columns. Jokes on me I guess.

I just read the script for PROM 2: The Awakening by director Ridley Scott

some cool things happen

Charlie Theron comes back as a alien human android hybrid with acid android blood.
Weyland comes back as a ruthless android played by that guy from momento
Shaw was never heard from again
Shaw comes back as a clone with alien still in pregnancy, reproduced from date salvaged from the Prometheus ship recorder
Shaw has acid blood
The three plus a rag tag group of space miners must reinvestigate the planet from prometheus.
they fall for all the same traps again and shaw is the only one who survives

It's supposed to be a 3 part trilogy and the prequel to the Alien movies. But the directors keep leaving or something so it's taking forever to do a second film.

Anyway, that's why a lot of people probably didn't like it

Because they didn't know

Does it bother you that the Human Torch is also Captain America (and much better in that role)

Honestly I liked Prometheus but solely because over the past year my cancerous nerdery has gone into remission and I no longer give a poo poo about stupid garbage like canon or everything needing to make some sort of tangible sense from my detached rational viewpoint.
