I do like Cabin in the Woods and that feels like self-aware Whedon

Taken in isolation, sure I’d agree with you; looking at the dialog, it’s easy to say Whedon didn’t invent that style. But he did a great service in popularizing it through appealing to adolescent/young adult nerd culture that then became mainstream when those people turned into adults and had income to throw at things

Is Whedon in the former or latter camp in your mind? Because if the latter.....oh man.....fuck that. He can mail his writing style back to 2003 where it can live and die of whatever horrible disease terrible dialog can contract

It’s the atrocious quippy Marvelesque writing that has permeated pop culture, showcased in this trailer,

Definitely room for both in this specific instance. The person who perpetrated it is an absolute villain, but there’s a clear abuse of power going on here with the police.

Haha I forgot about the decapitation comebacks

Yeah I agree, I guess I can see that it was exciting for the potential it pointed at but the system presented didn't really live up to the hype for me personally 

Lol, "but actually" indeed! 

I remember you guys got so excited about the Nemesis system and I found it...meh. I didn’t really understand why it was intriguing to fight Norg the Abuser 8 times and then his successor Blorg the Accuser 7 times after that when they were basically the same enemy but one had green warts and the other red. I kept being

You could've fooled me with these takes

What an excellent and typical rebuttal from a libertarian putting the delusional, disconnected-from-reality-in-the-most-harmful-ways idealism at the core of their philosophy to the public for discourse.

Shut up with this libertarian hogshit. ICE vehicles have been and are subsidized up the ass in this country, not to mention oil production. There is no illusory level playing field in the market, Jesus Christ.

How did the chlorophyll transfer to him?
