Thats right. I learned to live with him in the boards. He said my Predator is pathetic? Maybe, maybe necas attemp or my poor painting skills (LOL ) but I dont take it personally and I enjoy his crazy theories and Neca/Hot Toys love hate .
Now that you mention it, i think that it's the primary reason his demeanor no longer bothers me - i appreciate his passion, fully. I've been told by people i take all this stuff too seriously, but the art of it IS serious to me, all cultivated skill and knowledge working this strange creative "miracles" that could only be produced at that time, but have transcended it.
I'm a huge fan of mike mignola and his hellboy universe. I find the movies offensive to what the themes and the nuances of the characters in the books are. Del Toro made a lot of changes that sit perpindicular to mignola's work in the books. I HATE the movies and that when i mention the character they think the movies are what the books are like. I have an intense hatred, and its probably not "normal", or i take it too seriously... So i recognize the same passion he's got, and i accept it. I only accept the thomas bros written films, and there is no indication in either of this whole yautja thing. But i don't mind it. Its not nearly as unique as the original concept is - they turned the predator into some sorta anti-hero - but it's fine to me. He HATES it. I get it. I appreciate passion in this sport vs. "it's just for fun!"
