Give it some time, I’m sure The Herb can run them into obscurity too.

Won’t someone think of the snobs?!!

I just fucking hate seeing talent people waste their time and energies on these projects.

I keep clicking on this article thinking it’ll be less stupid but nope, it’s still stupid and I’m stupid for clicking on it...

Marvel is unlikely to branch out into non-superhero movies for the same reason Pixar is unlikely to launch a live-action division. These companies are subsidiaries of a larger conglomerate, and consistent brand identity is one of their major assets.

Ultimately, for Marvel to truly be tested, they would need to actively antagonize their audience. They would need to strip away all that robust infrastructure, release-date dominance, and storytelling formulas that have made them such a success. Realistically, they would need to make a movie without Kevin Feige. He’s…

Changed the headline, added a tiny update, didn't apologize for the trash article, or refute the trash article. 

“Yeah, that seems like a smart move, pivoting from a $200 million dollar live action Netflix series to an anime. This will work out great for you!”

Too late to change the headline, kiddos. You let it sit as the main story for, what, 36 hours? Give me a break. 

She hasn’t released a statement yet, but here’s hoping she at least understands why people are upset over her participation in an event rooted in white supremacy.

You did about ten times more research than the hack author of this article just by going to friggin’ Wikipedia. Kemper’s own Wikipedia article has mentioned this since it’s existed as well, so it’s not like it’s some secret, and, as you mentioned, Kemper has publicly stated in the past that it was embarrassing. Though…

This article is bad and you should feel bad for writing it.

Congrats AV Club. You got mentioned in a Fox News story where Fox News comes out looking like the reasonable party. How far this site has fallen

I really have no interest in participating in this specific battle of the culture war, but lol at this being on the front page still.  

This is pathetic. This story is so thoroughly debunked and outright libelous, but it’s getting plenty of engagement, so they keep it in the featured spot. Tells you all you need to know about how this place is run and the pigs who run it.

This place is pure fucking poison. What a sad, sad end to a once vibrant site. It’s as if Black Flag went Christian Rock.

I read an article in the LA Times, written by an actual journalist, and it looks like the event a) isn’t tied to the KKK and b) has allowed black participants since at least the late 70s. Kemper shouldn’t be dragged for this.

Possible AV Club article titles about GMG going under (for good) after Ellie Kemper sues the pants off of them:

Hey AV Club management-

I’m sorry, and I really don’t mean to be disrespectful, but this is an incredibly silly take, for reasons better articulated by others.
