I don't think that. I don't even like most Snyder movies, I just think performative hostility to the idea of people who like it getting what they want is weird. Especially given that the stuff they like was legitimately harmed in one of the most extreme ways I can think of for a work of art, having Whedon added to it half way through production.

Don't forget that lot of scenes that featured Ray Fisher (who played Cyborg) and other actors of color were cut or reshot for the theatrical cut.

That's genuinely more upsetting to me than, like, not seeing Darkseid or whatever.

Batman v. Superman does a great job of taking Man of Steel to task for its horrifying climax and showing what a disinterested, irresponsible sociopath Snyder's Superman is all without saying barely a word... and then it devolves into being Batman v. Superman, but still.

I can definitely see why someone would not like the conflicting tones in the ending of MoS.

I’m having trouble with “Superman did a bad job protecting the city in his fight with Zod, therefore he’s an emotionless sociopath who hates all life”, though.

There is no way in hell the original Snyder cut was going to be anything like this. It’s doubled in length and has the benefit of several years of hindsight.

Acting like THIS film is what Whedon and the studio denied us is pretty unfair to Whedon.

Deffo a weaker episode from Quentin but holy hell Chills is just a singularity of punchability.

I didn’t expect the movie to be a masterpiece, the real justice (ha) for me was watching a version of the movie that wasn’t an incompetent, racist, and sexist hack job.

I may put the iCarly video on as background noise, but I can't understand how you can get 4 hours of content out of iCarly of all things. Jenny Nicholson was able to squeeze an analysis of The Vampire Diaries into 2 hours, couldn't Quinton at least try to do something similar?

Maybe it's because I'm also a woman of color, but the hostile response bushism.txt is getting seems really disproportional. Like of course you can disagree with her, and I'll admit she could be making her points better. But Jesus Christ, are we really gonna pretend Ellis is just some obscure nobody with no audience?

That Cat Valentine video is better than the Quinton iCarly video.

Absolutely baffling to me that Quinton didn’t use Jenny Nicholson’s The Vampire Diaries video as a blueprint for his iCarly videos.

I feel doing dry recaps of nearly every episode instead of focusing on a few talking points (characters, reoccurring themes, problematic poo poo that didn’t age well, etc.) is creating more work for yourself and your editor.

btw for all the people who don't want to watch quinton's victorious video (which, fair) he's MUCH harsher on this show than iCarly. He's still not talking about Dan Schneider, but he's not failing to point out how gross and fetishy like every episode is. It's shocking how bad it is, every writer on this show deserves prison for 10,000 years.

The episode where the puppet character was a massive creep to the actresses made my skin crawl. I was like, “This has be a self insert of Schneider, right?”

Here's a two-for. Big Money Salvia did a video making fun of everyone getting mad about how Amazon's making a Lord of the Rings show with women and black people in it, and then did a follow up video making fun of the King of the Chuds for getting mad about the video making fun of how mad people like him got over all the women and black people in the Amazon Lord of the Rings show.

It's 50 minutes long, so that means Carl probably watched about a tenth of it, the media illiterate rear end pimple he is.

I’m watching the second video right now, and goddamn time just slows to a crawl when Carl talks.

A really good article by Kat Blaque reflecting on a… messy drama with Vaush: https://blaqueinthecity.com/2022/04/11/vaush/

Kat has been making lefty YouTube videos before Breadtube was a thing, but it’s so frustrating to see her continually be dismissed, if not outright smeared, by the (mostly) white audience who consume similar content by white creators.

Debate bros like Vaush and Xanderhal can be as edgy and insulting as they want, but the second a black trans woman stands up for herself, she’s labeled a sexual harasser for making a dumb crack about unimpressive white dick.

This is the poo poo I’m talking about! A few posters say they disagree with some of the criticism Snyder gets, and get called a loving cult. Do you think people would not get annoyed by that?

Listen, I have seen my fair share of annoying Snyder fans, but as an actual minority, I can confidently say the goons doing the slightest bit of pushback against common Snyder complaints are not acting like they’re oppressed; it could just get pretty tiring to have the worst traits a person can have ascribed to you because of a few comic book movies lol.
