Kiroshima gives a pretty decent take that shits on Elon

The dickriding continues.

That’s because you can’t do “general industrialist things” and be a good person at the same time.

Holy shit so many words to just admit you’re dickriding.

He’s not gonna fuck you.

“I’d like someone to actually state something legitimately bad that he’s done, as I can’t think of anything beyond the general industrialist things”

there’s no way to become a billionaire without being a shitty individual

He’s got multiple sexual assualt accusations against him, fuck off with your mild defense of him. Also hemry ford was an brual anti-semite, warren buffet is a stain on society as well. Don’t bootlick the people running our oligarchy you idiot.

There’s nothing more pathetic than some incel simping for Musk. Seek help.

Wanna save me that time?

You’re right. His works aren’t boring, lazy rip offs... but they are derivative. His resistance to adaptations is very much unfounded through his candor as an artist, since the only way that works is if he’s capable of determining or even properly stating why adaptions of his work are any less derivative than what…

Why do you think they try to keep Grant Morrison happy?

Moore doesn’t know if the adaptations of his work are “reconfiguring old characters into a new context in order to make an artistic statement”,  as he hasn’t even seen most of them.  

He claims to have never watched any of the adaptations, but he doesn’t let that stop him from telling the world they suck.

More than anything, I think this is all a result of Moore believing that DC/WB screwed him over by not letting the rights to Watchmen revert back to him by keeping the book in print in perpetuity. Which, you know, fair enough. But a lot of these criticisms feel a bit adolescent and insincere, particularly from someone…

Moore’s comments would deserve a great deal of respect, except that there’s one consistent feature of all these “Alan Moore condemns adaptations of his work” stories: he’s always insisted he doesn’t watch any of the adaptations (and I’m pretty sure he’s also claimed never to have watched any of the comic book movies…

To be bluntly honest, we all know the reason why they don’t; hardly anyone really cares about Alan Moore’s contemporary work. Watchmen remains one of the most influential comic books ever written, but when’s the last time you heard anyone bring up Jerusalem apropos of nothing? Not judging him, he can do whatever he…

“I think it opened with, “Dear Mr. Moore, I am one of the bastards currently destroying Watchmen.” That wasn’t the best opener.” - IMO that’s probably the best possible opener. 

I have never, and will never, have any sympathy for the author of Lost Girls, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Watchmen, three completely original works that didn’t shit on the IP of others one bit.

I loved his letter where he said he’s doing exactly what Moore did; take a bunch of dusty old superheroes and putting an irreverent and bold new spin on them. He argued it was the most reverent way possible to approach an adaptation; by harnessing the original spirit of Alan Moore in saying “fuck Alan Moore” lmao
