I mean, it’s not even genocide per se; the nuke blows up what appears to be some kind of Chitauri command ship, not a planet. Blowing up a military spacecraft while it’s actively attacking you is not “genocide,” it’s called “warfare,” no matter how many people of a given race you kill in the process.
Watching Into the Spider-Verse and seeing the love everyone involved had for the core concepts of Spider-Man just made me even angrier with Marc Webb’s duology and just how cynical and empty it was.
My favourite scene in the movie, and one of my favourites in the entire MCU is the follow around during the battle of New York, it was pitch perfect page to screen for comic books.
Iron Man ends the movie by committing nuclear genocide against a race of aliens
Gonna be hard to spin Superman rampaging through fake-New York as justified though. I mean I’ve seen the argument for it but its wrong and more to the point it’s not what Superman would have done. Plenty of superheroes would fight Zod in that city and deaths would happen and it would be justified as “for the greater…
Or condemning Lando for all the independent contractorsinstalling a toilet main blowing up on Death Star 2.
You just know some Snyder Cultist is gonna try to spin that claim on the MoS article in two weeks...
FUN FACT: The Stuttgart scenes were filmed in downtown Cleveland and if you know where to look you can see my office window, which makes me at least partially responsible for this movie’s success.
Why is she so scared of the nerdy doctor she meets in that slum just outside Delhi, or wherever?
Typical AV Club Marvel fanboyery! If Captain America is so great, how come he doesn’t snap anyone’s neck and look really sad about it?
“Into the Spider-verse.” The title of that movie was “Into the Spider-verse.” And my only regret about it is that the goddamn flu kept me from watching it over and over again during the holidays.
Just love Anne Hathaway’s Selina in TDKR. The scene where she just shifts from innocent to calculating during her first meeting with Bale is just amazing.
The fact that they managed to get people this interested in an Avengers film without being able to use Spider-Man or X-Men characters is pretty extraordinary.
TERFs will attack you for promoting “violence against women”, ignoring that these women initiated the violence.
As much as anything, it’s an excuse to let folks know that AE has pivoted to full-blown TERF. Based on the other responses I’ve had, that’s not yet common knowledge.
Blech I have heard of TERFs before. Shitheads! Thank you for explaining :)
Wow. Read the article again.
They’re both notorious for their anti-trans bias. They represent a subset of feminists who are generally labeled trans-exclusionary radical feminists or TERFs-a name they invented for themselves, but now hate because other people use it. They usually spend a huge amount of energy trying to keep trans folks from…
I wonder how much play this will get over at AfterEllen or Feminist Current? Somehow, I think it might not make much of a splash there...
