None of these are on my list. Other then old stand boys like We Hate Movies and Jay and Miles X-plain the X-Men, this year I discovered Lions Led by Donkeys and QAnon Anonymous which I both enjoy enough to give Patreon money too now. 

It sounds to me like Whedon is a demanding prick, but everyone knows that being a demanding prick isn’t a cancel-able offence, so they realize they’re better of keeping it vague and mysterious because if they listed the actual charges the court of public opinion would dismiss the case.

I hope his agent is better about going over the script with him and highlighting that it’s about the women of the movement and that he’s not one of the primary characters.

What a crock. There was no ‘controversy’ over her original casting choices. There was just a few self-aggrandizing ax-grinders and you. She’s right on every count.
