Don’t be crass.

Imagine putting up with 7 years of this shit. Almost a decade of people asking you if your most prominent role wants to fuck the Winter Soldier. Personally, I’d get to a point where I would end up trolling the shippers and playing it up in a hammy way, but god you gotta feel bad for the guy. He doesn't make these…

Your example hits at the weird, often contradictory values they have. Representation vs. “Male Intimate Relationships Are Gay”-mindset that’s patriarchal AF.

I don’t remember a time when Gizmodo writers ever proofread their work.

they just type out their thoughts, don’t proofread, and then submit it.

And just like the gay question, the Kinja complaints won’t stop.

I feel like the writer, and quite frankly, most of the writers on G/O do exactly what I do when I write a comment, in that they just type out their thoughts, don’t proofread, and then submit it. Only instead of it being a lame comment among a sea of lame comments, its a fucking published article. That’s how we end up…

Audiences looking for more queer representation from Marvel’s cinematic and televisual output have more than a right to be annoyed at Mackie’s response

Ummm, nope. And it’s honestly strange you read it that way.  

Writing this article in a way that takes this premise seriously is completely psychotic.

Even talking to actors about the entertainment products they’re featured in is a mistake, though probably an unavoidable one. I was also irked by Colbert (?) asking Rita Moreno about colorism in In the Heights. An actor is a craftsman doing as they’re told. Only if they get to major star status and can be listed as…

Anyone who has a more representative story to tell is more than welcome to write it.

Everyone who disagrees with you is not a homophobe.  Most are probably allies who you will ultimately drive away.

I agree with Mackie’s larger point that fans should stop trying to read queer subtext into every close male relationship in film. People have been doing the shipping thing for a long time now in fandom circles, and it’s really not great. When there’s this push to say “oh, Frodo and Sam are definitely gay,” it degrades…

I feel that not all stories need to represent every demographic.  

There’s two problems here. The first is a lack of queer representation in mainstream movies and television series. The second however, is saying every close male friendship is “queer bait” and this site is guilty of it. I watched the whole show, there was nothing in the show that implied Falcon and Winter Soldier were…

That would be great if I was talking about the original myths. I’m not, I’m talking about the Marvel Character Loki. It’s clear that, in the films, he didn’t give birth to either Sleipnir or Fenrir — in fact, since he didn’t know Hela existed, there would be no way for him to have known Fenrir existed either.

it was Loki’s actual body, after the Asgardian was reborn alongside his fellow gods on Earth in the wake of Ragnarok.

Issacs looking for that nerd Dracula so he can get his fucking money

Every single person involved in that movie agreed to work on a movie being directed by Ben Falcone.
