Critical Backlash/Quotes
"How could anyone hate this game? It's a hilariously silly parody of fighters in general. If you played it as a youngster you're more likely to enjoy it later on than people who never did. It's a nostalgic game and is actually really fun with two players. Overall, a game with both Boogerman AND Earthworm Jim is at least worth trying just to play as them."
"This is an ill-compounded mixture of romance and matter-of-fact. The idea of a connected and collected story has obviously visited and abandoned its writer again and again in the course of composition. The style of his tale is in places disfigured by mad (rather than bad) English; and its catastrophe is hastily, weakly, and obscurely managed…We have little more to say in reprobation or in recommendation of this absurd book…Mr. Melville has to thank himself only if his horrors and his heroics are flung aside by the general reader, as so much trash belonging to the worst school of Bedlam literature — since he seems not so much unable to learn as disdainful of learning the craft of an artist."
"The "critics and haters just can't handle a movie that's all deep and dark and philosophical" line has got to be one of the dumbest, most desperate arguments I've ever heard. Especially after Nolan batman got virtually universal acclaim. No one hates this movie because it's different. They hate it because it's shit. No one hates it because it's all deep and philosophical. They hate it because it's giggle-inducingly incompetent at being deep and philosophical. No one hates it because it's a sprawling, operatic epic. They hate it because it's an incoherent trainwreck."
