Jerk with a "g"? How about "ultimate" as "ultamite"? Oops. :P
People who think Stephen King is jealous are idiots. Are you kidding me? King's incredibly pompous and like him or hate him, he knows what he's talking about. Meyer's had great success and good for her, but her writing sucks. Sorry. That's my opinion, but it's hackneyed crap. That being said, I don't have King's credibility to diss her, so she should be proud of her success.

Meyers is just a horrible writer.

"someone actually spelled 'jerk' with a 'g'....huh...anyway"

Carrie was Awsome

First point: He's a writer and has more experience in doing so, he'd know a good book, an intelligent man would read something before he'd bash something, obviously he knows his stuff seeing as he's done it many many years thus can judge whether or not a book is good.
Second point: The films based off his books will be remembered for ages, as a film student I can say that the shawshank redemption is infinity better than all 3 films so far (soon to be 5 seeing as they copied harry potter.)

Stephanie Mayer is just a fat ass mormon with NO TALENT!!!

stephen kings literature is more relatable than stephanie myers work i mean twilight is just another phase, but the shinning and many of his movies and books will live on for all ages except anyone under 12

You should really read more of his books! I love Carrie but its not his best. If you're freaked out easily, you probably should wait for IT, The Shining, Salem's Lot, and Pet Sematary.
An I'm not the only guy out there reading them. Not to mention I know many grown women reading them as well. Just cause she writes in a very lazy way. Doesn't mean there not good King's writing was almost to much for me, but I enjoyed them. Meyer's writing appeals to readers. For there on reasons and people critisizing others for a lighter style of writing. Or cause she OH MY GOD changed the vampire to something new and different. You all need to grow up and learn to like new things.

Ok first of all I am a big King fan, but that doesn't mean it's all I read. I was reading long before many in my age group growing up. I grew up in the late 70's to early 80's there weren't many kids in the mood to read. An I was reading books a good 10 years over my age group. So I got into King pretty young and grew up. Being thought of as a extremely weird kid. I disagree with the statement can't write worth a darn. I've read all of the Twilight books and I'm a 35 year old guy.

@JoshK35000 I'm a huge Gaiman fan, but I read tons of other stuff. I get that. I also understand moving on from something you like as a kid. It seems that you really missed the point of the video.
The point is, King was prompted on his comments and had the right to say them. Was he 100% correct? For a lot of people it gets to be a matter of opinion. For me, yes he's correct. Her writing is bland and her grammar is awful. Am I taking away your right to enjoy it? Absolutely not.

@JoshK35000 I never said you were the only guy out there. It's just a highly female populated fanbase, so I understand that you expected me not to realize that. But I do.
What I dislike about Meyer's writing is more on the subject matter, however, than her actual style. Sure, it irks me that something I believe to be below D grade writing is published and adored, but I'm more concerned about the anti-feminist subtext, to be completely honest.

@JoshK35000 Lastly, I do have another video on the vampire thing and I have answered a question or two related to that subject, so check that out if you'd really like to see the inner workings of the mind of an anti.
I can like new things. In fact, I love trying new things because old things get boring. From my viewpoint, it seems like you need to grow up and realize that just because someone disagrees with you or pokes fun at something you like does not make it a personal attack.
Thanks.

i'm sorry i can't get this is out of my head: twinkling vegetarians vampires?! you have to be kidding me! not bashing twilight but whatever little respect i have for the vampire genre is almost gone. if the vampire diaries ever get just like twilight, i will never again watch another vampire movie. btw, i love your video. sorry about the rant but i had to get it out.
