Fronted comparative structures

I'm not usually one to complain about the existence of PG-13 (or even tamer) horror, as I do not think that gore, language, etc. are necessary for a good film. It's not that I dislike gore, but I love the first three Universal Frankenstein films, say, as much as I love the Evil Dead series, Romero's zombie films, or any of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre films (and certainly more than I like, say, Andreas Schnaas' work, which has the gore but not much else). But when the result of studios pushing for PG-13 results in such an apparent botch-job, I have to add my voice to the protesters.

< the first review in http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0257516/reviews?ref_=tt_urv>
I have extracted some from one of reviews of "Cursed" on IMDB.

I'd like to know whether comparative structures are fronted as in my example.

They are in their normal positions: I love W as much as I love X or Y (and more than I like Z).

I didn't catch the structure.
