I don’t know what’s worse, that these things about this movie are true or that an AV Club editor tried to defend them. This article stinks of promotional consideration.

“Whedon is bad” is now one of those pieces of groupthink that will prevent anyone from coming to his defense. They’re going to be savaged by the anti-Whedon mob for going against the approved narrative. No publicist would allow a client to do that, even for a friend.

Something tells me that of this show were one of those with white leads, this review would be far less critical of the show’s failures and excuse all of its shortcomings as “But wasn’t it So Much Fun??”

This might explain why the Henry “Heavy Superman Suit” Cavill response to ZSJL was so drastically different from the Ray “CGI Costume” Fisher response. 

Sheesh, G/O Media is so fixated on attacking Ellen that I wouldn’t be surprised to find similar articles to this on Deadspin, Jalopnik, and Kotaku.

And you’ve mistaken me for someone who will fall for an "I'm so above this article that I've read, quoted, and dug up a related tweet about" response like this. Do better.

What kind of bad-faith argument relies on unprovable Twitter allegations? “My friend said...” Maybe your friend should be the one tweeting to help prove they’re not completely fictitious?

Two anti-Ellen articles in two days, Tatiana? And Ellen is wrong about this being a coordinated campaign against her how again?

Signal that virtue! SIGNAL IT!

This is genuine over-the-line “cancel culture” exactly the way Fox means it. I missed voting in Charlotte Yi as Gatekeeper for Good Behavior.

“Donald Glover Comes Out As Black Republican”

I agree, you did undermine your entire premise way back in your 2nd comment. That’s why I described your further ramblings as “embarrassing,” because even you know that you’re wrong.

Bucky was shown on a double date in his first appearance in The First Avenger! Please, stop, you’re embarrassing yourself with this willful misreading of MCU events.

There are plenty of instances where people and/or characters have been uncomfortable with their orientation and either tried to live the life expected of them at the time and got beards. Or they only became comfortable with expressing a side of their lives after times changed or they moved to a place where they…

“I think it’s fair enough that audiences could interpret a relationship strong enough to go against governments and close friends is more intimate than most friendships would be.”

The idea that anyone involved in this show has left any ambiguity about Bucky being bi is simply absurd.

What would Einstein say to this theory of yours? If you were shot into space such that a year passed for you but 1000 passed for civilization, how much older would you really be? 

So many YouTube “analysis” videos amount to nothing more than “Look how much comic book lore I know! Revel in the greatness of my nerdhood!” It's insufferable.

“Marvel has so far refused to openly embrace that interpretation of its characters.”
