An unpleasant revelation to me, to say the least. But if we were to discount the authors with problematic views (sadly common) in their times, we would be devoid of artistic sources from which to draw inspiration in the present.

He damn well better chew the scenery, the Sorcerer Supreme is not a subtle character!
I’m glad for this article, if only to be a source to point to when people undoubtedly propagate the fakes in the future. But so many of them make me shake my head in despair at how damn ignorant you have to be in order to actually be fooled by them.
You know, I’m conflicted. Because casting Iron Fist as Asian has its own problems regarding stereotypical roles in cinema.
Look up the word anecdote. Then look up the word data. Your experience is not representative of everyone’s. Don’t be so quick to think because you have shared an experience, that makes you an expert. Otherwise, every soldier who has seen active duty should be an expert or PTSD. Everyone who has experienced loss should…
Judging by everyone’s expression, and DD’s lack of perturbedness, I would say he just pulled a “I did it 35 minutes ago” on them.
Or, you know, a case of conflicting cultures; one that has been decimated and exploited for centuries, the other one used to getting whatever the hell it wants without consideration of those with less power (i.e. Money). But sure, its just religion vs science. Those damn superstitious natives trying to undermine the…
Hated everything he ever did, yes even his “Masterpiece” RoboCop. The man was a ham-fisted hack. I actually thought the remake of RoboCop was a superior film, though that is damning with faint praise.
If you haven’t already seen it, check out the remake of Fright Night. He’s the vampire hunter/magician character. When I first saw him, I thought it was Russel Brand. :D
Yeah, that scene with the family is not just creepy, but disturbing and heartbreaking. This is not going to be one of those villains that I can root for in any capacity, just a horror to be confronted.
Jesus Christ, I wish you deniers would just shut up already.
Wow... well, that was pretty impressive projection.
Yeah, add my voice in the support of the new show. I think it is funny, and fun. Also, in the other various internet communities I frequent, the consensus is the same. IO9 is a weird damn place where various shows are either gushed over or demonized with “objectively true” statements.
That is pretty much the most stupid female hero outfit I have seen in... a really long time. “Boob windows are not enough!”
Fantasia, Night on Bald Mountain, I think it was called. Saw that in thee theater when I was like 5, simultaneously scared and wowed me.
Marvel heroes are generally written to be more fallible on a human level, so dickery tends to be rampant, because, well, even good people can be dicks sometimes. Especially when their own shit is messing with their heads. ;)
I’ve been a martial arts practitioner for almost 20 years. I have yet to see a new student, without prior training, who knew how to throw the punch that is shown above properly. Improperly, sure, but that only result sin sub optimal effectiveness and bruised or broken fists. One would think that if we were evolved to…
This is one Bostonian who is looking forward to these mythical milder winters they are talking about.
Yes, we all could use fewer people in the world who are overly self-entitled. Why don’t you help us all out with that, the exit is right over there.
And that is when he stabs her in the exposed belly with the knife....
