I wonder how far into production Dune Part 2 is going to get before Zaslav decides the first one didn’t make enough money to justify a sequel after all.

Pedantic correction to your correction: Marvelman is the original UK name

Image being founded by seven artists who couldn’t write kinda gives away the game. It wasn’t really about respect for the creative process or comic books as a medium so much as it was about enriching their one part of it.  None of the earliest stuff is readable until they started courting Alan Moore and other big…

That’s a pretty weird take, man.

“Haven’t seen most of the superhero films and the few I have hold no interest to my 60-year-old tastes.”

Give us a fucking break, man.

Should have asked him about how he is all for creators rights except when it gets in the way of him making toys to sell. Or how he never owned any rights to Marvelman. Or how his toys companies quality control is the worst in the industry.

I’m glad Dwayne The Rock Johnson finally has a figurine of himself that he can give to family

So... movies are for girls and comics are for boys, huh? This is some bullshit and it's quite annoying that none of the women creators out there got any acknowledgement. Some pushback on that would have been nice.

That’s some top-notch deflection. When you say there’s a problem with people who think people cannot be good AND masculine, it invites others to explain WHY they would think masculinity IS an issue. So I explained that to you. To pretend that it doesn’t have anything to do with you is absurd. Because you’re not…

Oh fuck off with the self-pitying sanctimonious twaddle. You clearly have serious antagonistic issues with women when your whole persona screams “of course they don’t like me, I’m not the muscular “confident” hunk they go for” which is still blaming women.

Exactly. “How to be a good man” and “how to be a good person” are not mutually exclusive. They are the exact same thing, and the same as “how to be a good woman”. 

“There are things we deal with, questions we ask of ourselves and discussions we have with our friends, that you wouldn’t be able to understand.”

No, you haven’t been on a date for 21 years because you’re a fucking creep with a lot of antagonism towards women, but simply as it’s not the “DudeBro” style creep you think it’s fine to say.

And whenever you pass a woman you tip your fedora to them.

“Part of your problem in particular is that you seem to think there is some distinction between what it means to be a “good man” and what it means to be a “good person.””

A million times, this.

No one needs an instruction manual on masculinity. What Peterson and Tate offer are baroque justifications and self-deluding excuses for the insecure to indulge their worst impulses. They offer power fantasies, in other words, just like Captain America and Batman are power fantasies. They feel good, but they aren’t…

I don’t think we’re having different conversations. You said that someone could look to Jordan Peterson if they wanted to learn how to be a good man. I am saying that is wrong, not just that I don’t personally want to look to Jordan Peterson. Jordan Peterson can teach you how to be a pathetic, misogynistic, bigoted…

Jordan Peterson can’t tell you how to be a good man. The Art of Manliness can’t tell you how to be a good man. They’re both just milder shades of the same normative patriarchical bullshit that Tate spews (though AoM is, at least as far as I am aware, much less awful than Peterson - I am happy to be corrected here, I…

I have watched/studied enough Jordan Peterson to know he absolutely does not teach boys to be good men. Other than telling them to get their own affairs in order/clean their room before judging other people’s lives, which can be good advice, but is incredibly vague, he makes boys feel like helpless victims who are…

Your notifications deserve to be set on fire for the idea that “Jordan Peterson can tell you how to be a good man.” He’s a bigoted, misogynistic hack. (https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/feb/07/how-dangerous-is-jordan-b-peterson-the-rightwing-professor-who-hit-a-hornets-nest).
