I never said he was a decent guy. I had used that as example. I forgive TV characters for awful things when they do it for a 'good' reason. I expect the main characters of a show about making meth to make and sell drugs, kill people, etc. Walt didn't kill the kid, by the way. He would have moved into the Complete…
Nitpicking, awesome. I capitalize Woman, Man, Brother, Sister, etc. I don't capitalize dude, guy, gal, bro, etc. Sometimes, I forget! Sometimes, I don't bother. Must mean I "hate bitches", I guess. Need to oppress me some bitches, since I either capitalize or don't capitalize. It's 1950 up in this piece, due to…
It's dripping with misogyny if you want to see misogyny. It's writing wasn't crafted with that in mind. But yeah, white-knight all day if that's your thing. It's not like it matters if you believe I'm some kind of female-hater or not. Especially over a discussion on a fictional character.
Why not?
You can choose to read it that way. I don't feel as if I hate Women at all. I hate cheating spouses. I hate the bitch that has a decent guy at home, who's out getting it from dudes at the club. I hate the bastard that has a decent gal at home, who's throwing his dick into anything he can.
I don't hate Skyler because she's a strong woman character. I hate Skyler because she's a cheating, ball-and-chain, bitch.
is a CLEAR CASE of Superman being spiteful and vindictive
It's because of Superman's inexperience, I think, that he couldn't find another way. It's not as though he'd ever even been in a fight before that. His "training" was to hide his powers, not to use them. Zod's training was to fuck dudes up on a grand scale. Give Zod enough time on the planet, to absorb as much…
I certainly have. All three of them.
I got that in another reply that I don't want to re-type all of, but I do agree that the future could look a lot different. However, should whatever event that created the dystopia happen soonish from our present, it wouldn't make sense to just toss in some random ethnicity just to try and prove one's progressiveness.
True, I concede to that. However, if we were to assume whatever happened to wreck the planet and create a dystopia occurred soonish from our present, then I don't imagine there'd be a lot of migrating around afterwards.
Katniss comes from the West Virginia/Virginia/Tennessee/etc area. Around here, it's mostly whities. She could have been African American or Mixed African American and it would have been fine, but not a lot of Hispanics in this area at present (compared to the South and West Coast).
Spoilerish things ahead...
I should have stated that better. Outside of hunting/sports and war, it's the be-all-end-all of masculine pursuits (of course, I'm referring to "activities of exhilaration", and not things like providing for ones family, etc). I'm a lazy, 21st century American. Haven't played sports in a long time, haven't hunted…
My first wife went through a "not wanting to have sex" phase, and for a long time, I tried to be supportive. I mean, I hated it, of course. I am a man, after all. We males tend to put a great deal of emphasis on the physical, even if that's not the most important aspect of the relationship. That caused all sorts…
HBO or Showtime could do Mass Effect better than Hollywood, I think. Do it as a series! 12-14 episodes per season. 2 seasons per game. Keep the story moving forward. Get the important parts of the game, PLUS some new shit for your writers to add (ala Game of Thrones, True Blood, or the US adaptation of…
I'd rather see it go to Activison than EA. 1313 is already, for the most part, created. I would bet any company that could afford the licencing could finish it up nicely.
