Where I disagree is that I don't see feminism as simply being "not-sexism." You can not be a sexist and also not be a feminist. Feminism entails methods of thought, criticism and ethical practice extending well beyond equality of the sexes.

Nah, you see I'm against that because feminism is partially about elevating the historically feminine and highlighting the value of labor that has been condescendingly considered the women's domain. However, especially among professional academic feminists, there's this self-serving idea that feminism just means

It's AGOT's fault for always airing in the two month window when communications majors are hunting for last minute thesis topics.

Let's get Hannah Arendt up in this shit.

Careful with that fact-checking zzyzazazz, a PA's career is at stake.

I miss the Arrested Development sign-in spam. Ever since my Netflix became a Perpetual Child Distractor, I just get recommendations for direct-to-streaming Disney rip-offs like Finding Swimmo and Bickering Ice Bitches.

Don't dump Vermin Supreme in with this rabble!

My first clue that this would be abjectly terrible was when I learned that the character that the trailers had led me to believe was Jimmy Olsen was actually Snyder's take on Lex Luthor.

It will be the cinematic equivalent of a 9 year old asking you if you want to see this cool game he has and then proceeding to spend 2 hours reloading various saves so you can watch all the boss battles and cut scenes.

Snyder isn't that self-aware though. He isn't trying to make fun noir superhero movies, he's trying to make Atlas Shrugged with capes, but that combination of respect for the genre and lack of artistic pretension is what separates something like Batman: The Animated Series from unintended camp.

Snyder is like Michael Bay listened to the speech at the end of Idiocracy and realized that maybe there should be a reason for the explosions.

I watch the trailers and my only response is the awareness that a lot of people are going to spend a lot of time being very mad at the even greater number of people who will point out the obvious fact that it kind of sucks.

I look at Anna Kendrick and I think "fuckable witch."

One pig anus cylinder, please!

They could have chosen the Emirates and capitalized on the eerily quiet atmosphere.

I'm just going to assume you think it's the sequel to 28 Days.

The game is genuinely terrifying once you realize that Michael Jackson is actually the villain.

The patched PC version was actually great, and due to the presence of an actual story with characters, better than any actual GTA game up until GTA IV. The hackneyed "crime doesn't pay" ending was a big disappointment though and that racing mission was a nightmare.

I was partial to Double Switch, an FMV combination of Space Ace, Home Alone and the Panic Room bizarrely featuring Corey Haim, Deborah Harry and R. Lee Ermey.

There was a series of awful X-Men games, most trying to replicate the Final Fight-style success of the arcade game, but that NES version was something else… seriously, I always figured they just made a random sci-fi game, happened upon the X-Men license and slapped it on the cover without making any actual changes.
