>Lol he hates a whale who cares
>Lol dead jew on a stick that's dumb
>Lol greeks killing each other for muh honor
>Lol it's just a dainty italian man mamma-miaing his way through hell
Any opinion structured like this is completely worthless and anyone who considers such bullshit a genuine criticism of a work is too retarded to matter
