Reminds me of a Facebook post by Intrada a couple of months ago - one of their "Back in Stock" posts. I made a short comment on the post along the lines of "Great news!", and about a month later there was a notification that someone had reacted to my comment with an angry face. Looking at the post, this person randomly went through and 'angry faced' every single comment on that post and several other posts on Intrada's page, a month after the fact and for no apparent reason.

Not as impressive/alarming as the replies to your comment on YouTube (eight years (!) later no less), but another reminder of why I'm mostly a lurker the limited amount of time I spend online, on social media and the like.

Cursing and insulting a dead man because he composed the music to a movie he hates?
Either he is trolling or he's got some serious mental problems.
Hope he doesn't own a gun.

Why bring this here? Just leave it to rot on YouTube.

No mention of The Omen trilogy and the two Poltergeist films? Those films were full of evil things! Like that little kid and Sam Neill!

Yeah, not sure if or how the person distinguishes between an "evil movie" or a movie depicting "evil". There is much worse evil in Schindler's List than there is in Basic Instinct or The Omen, yet it is hardly an "evil movie", but the opposite. I don't see how Basic Instinct is an "evil" movie? Because the villain in the movie is pure evil?

I would recommend not engaging with crazy people in YouTube comments!

Or on FSM, for that matter.

Goldsmith was(*) an "odd" and inattentive composer : he always mixed meters. wink

(*) Writing in past tense always sounds strange to me... because there's not a single day without his music in my life. I can't believe that he left us 17 years ago.

The person is clearly mental. But it is Youtube afterall. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

The joys of the bottom half of the internet roll eyes

Is this a joke? I clicked on the link and watched three delightful interview segments between Robert Osborne and Jerry for TCM.

You have to go to the comments section and look for a post about eight years old with (brand new) comments on it... if you want to get pissed.

I can't imagine reading those comments and having my reaction be "get pissed off".

I mean, he was pretty offensive... but then again you're right. I supposed mystified might overtake pissed in this case.

I've seen that you-tube vid before.. like most stuff on their its diseased!

I'd understand if any composer was a predator like Soule - but this is pure-lunacy slurring the Great-Man!

Films & TV is just leisure even if it isn't fiction. Its a pity that wackos in the past took it too extreme levels video-games too!

That guy needs a straight-jacket or something!

He obviously didn't like Sharon Stone's vajayjay.

YouTube comments are crazy. I was recently reading the comments on a John Williams or Jerry Goldsmith video and someone commented something like, "John Williams/Jerry Goldsmith is a really good composer. Probably up there with Steve Jablonsky." I have nothing against Steve Jablonsky (Steamboy is really good), but the comment seemed really odd.

The comments seem to come from someone with mental health issues which is more sad than irritating.

I love how very obvious, straight up old terms get re-configured for our PC age. Such as "issues" or "sex worker"

I'm just "straight up" old.
