That we’re about to get a lavishly-produced studio science fiction film not based on an existing franchise or a hackneyed action plot, starring two enormously talented and appealing A-list stars and using a no-shit hard s.f. premise as its jumping off point, and most of the io9 readership is shitting on it is a pretty…

I can’t be the only who thinks this premise sounds TERRIBLE, like a space rom-com where the ship suddenly shifts and Jen falls accidentally into Chris’s lap and Chris says something smarmy and Jen responds “You wish!” but in a winking, cute way.

This is a MRA troll. Don’t feed it.

You’re not engaging with arguments made.

Also, if a female comedian talks about feminists issues sometimes, they must be a perfect and pure feminist 100% of the time, or else.

Again, you transparently have no idea what constitutes that particular logical fallacy so you should probably stop saying it so often. I mean, assuming you care about embarrassing yourself in public; maybe you don’t. Your contributions to this conversation so far make me wonder.

Want to bring that mentality to men accused of rape? Didn’t think so.

I don’t understand most of your response. I’ve heard she was accused of stealing a joke but I actually don’t really care. She has an immense body of work so one or two of her jokes are bound to resemble another comedian’s from time to time. It happens when you’ve produced as much material as she has.

I wish I had a nickel for every person that used the phrase “ad hominem” incorrectly as shorthand for “hey that person insulted me.” That’s not how this works. You haven’t actually presented an argument, just a series of unsupportable statements. It’s not possible for someone to levy an ad hominem attack against you…

HIS BONER WAS JUST THAT IMPORTANT.

Wow... so she humiliated and used someone as a pawn for laughs?

Thank God you woke up this morning and rushed to Jezebel so you could deliver this hot take. You sound like a very rational and well adjusted individual and I for one hope you can give us more of this level of fine insight. Thank you. Thank you. I am literally standing and clapping in front of my monitor. People in my…

What’s possibly going on here is that somebody is a combination of bored/lonely/angry, and is throwing out a deliberately inflammatory position in order to get lots of attention and comments. It’s not quite human interaction, but it can be the next best thing.

Well I agree with you in that I don’t think Amy Schumer is always a shining beacon of feminism but why call her a hack? She is obviously talented, funny and incredibly charismatic and has done a lot of things right to be where she is now. If it is a discussion you seek, starting it off with such a petty statement is…

Some people seem to think it’s an interactive pissing contest instead of a performance by a professional. These people invariably and mistakenly think they are the funny one in the room, usually because they are really drunk, or really stupid.

Doesn’t matter what she said on stage. They paid to hear her, not him. That’s the only context that matters.

Tip to “hecklers”: You will never win with a comedian. Never. They have the mic, you don’t. They can outshout you, out-funny you (“You can say “show us your tits” to the people in the parking log” is sweet) and, finally, have you thrown out. And “show us your tits”? That line isn’t even funny at a strip club. And…

I think the only place I ever got kicked out of was health class in 5th grade because I couldn’t control myself and snickered at a cartoon dick becoming erect. I was pretty embarrassed after that. I hope this guy is mortified. Especially since his face will go viral with this video unlike the vast majority of hecklers…

“I was going to leave anyway,” says the guy in the very expensive seats who felt the need to ruin the show for everyone else.
