BW Vs FandomWire: Diverting Blame For The DCEU

BW Media Spotlight Vs FandomWire: Diverting Blame For The DCEU

You know, I will happily defend things I like from people that hate it, but I will not force you to change your viewpoint and suddenly “admit” it’s the greatest thing every and make you sorry you hated on Scrappy-Doo or whatever. For me it’s more about getting my point of view out there and finding others who agree with me. When it comes to the “Snyderverse”, defenders are rather easy to find.…

Love seeing good representations of Superman. That steadfast optimism and belief in the good of humanity just does not go out of style.

people hate the twister scene in man of steel bc clark doesn’t attempt to save his dad.

i hate the twister scene because johnathan tells everyone to get under the overpass which is THE LAST PLACE YOU SHOULD SHELTER DURING A TORNADO.

I tell ya', Poozers, I really love that Comicsgate just completely failed. The few creators that jumped on board are garbage quality, an' the big comics companies went in, if not a leftist direction, at least a liberal one.

Still, they pop up every so often, insistin' that the entire comics industry'll collapse cuz they ain't bigoted enough, an' demandin' Snyder replace Gunn in the DCEU in a weird conspiracy theory smorgasboard that'd make a fascist talkin' about Star Wars blush.

I really appreciated that message. I went because a friend asked me to, and I was prepared for another “#GirlBoss, if you’re not trying to be successful, you’re not supporting feminism” thing. But instead, it was the opposite. Liking dolls and being pink doesn't make you a fascist. Being ordinary doesn’t make you complacent to the patriarchy. It’s okay to be Stereotypical Barbie. Just like it’s okay to be President Barbie or Doctor Barbie or Weird Barbie. Or Allan. And it’s okay to be any type of Ken you want. It was a very unsubtle movie and had a lot of political satire that people have already misconstrued as man-hate. There were times that even I wasn’t sure how I felt about it. But in the end, when you put it all together, I feel like it had a great message.

That last line sure came out of nowhere, though.

The Barbie movie isn't about girl power. It's not about how women can do everything they set their mind to. It's about how sometimes women are tired and average and that has to be okay too, because you don't have to do everything to be worth anything. (And that this is also true of men.)

I can see now why Tista wasn’t published in English until after Tatsuya Endo got popular with Spy x Family because boy, that is all it has going for it

My team and boys.

have you ever found the descriptions and discussions you hear of a creative work to be more interesting or enjoyable than engaging directly with the work itself?

i would rather listen to people talk about any of zac snyder's DC movies than ever ever ever watch them. that being said i still have to subject my friends to finishing justice league the snyder cut

The part that stuck with me was Johnathan told Clark he shouldn't have saved a bus full of kids because he was putting himself at risk by exposing his abilities. Oh and the ending... and the impaling that dude's truck on a tree out of spite.

Man fuck Zac Snyder. All my homies hate Zac Snyder.

You’re never gonna guess who tweeted this.

Once you know who tweeted it a lot of shit makes sense.

Anyone talking anti-war has been severely targeted for cancelation.

I really wish people would differentiate

Honestly, I think one of the things that makes a lot of fandom culture and what not so toxic is the unableness and unwillingness of people to differentiate between "I like this", "This is good" and "People who made this were good people".

Yes, I chose the Howl's Moving Castle gif for a reason. Because it is one of those examples for me. The movie is messy from a storytelling perspective. The movie is also quite bad if you see it as an adaption. Yes, the book is so much better and I adore that darn book series. But also: I love the movie to bits. I just love it. The atmosphere. The characters. Himbo Howl. The soundtrack. Just everything. I adore it. And to me this is not that much of a challenge to think about all of that at once.

But... yeah, fandom discourse often does not work like that, does it? There is a lot of "I like it, therefore it is great and everyone involved with it is an amazing person!" going on. Or "I dislike it, therefore it is bad and everyone involved with it is a scheming villain".

And you see it in so many regards. Be it: "This media disagrees with me politically, therefore it artistically bad". Or: "I like this actor and his roles, therefore he cannot be a rapist." Or: "I love this book and the adaption does not do it justice, hence everyone who made it wanted to attack me personally."

Meanwhile I am sitting there and feeling anxious whenever I criticize something I actually like, because I always gotta fear that some fans are gonna attack me about it, because who am I to dare criticize it.

You know, I really did like Witcher 2 and Witcher 3 as games. I still think there are some issues with the games and that the games really are bad adaptions of the books.

I absolutely do think that Digimon Universe Applimon is not really well written and has way too many filler episodes. Yet, it still very much is my second favorite Digimon season.

I can acknowledge that Christorpher Nolan makes movies that are really good on a technical level - but I still hate each and everyone of those fucking things.

And yes, I absolutely do see that the Fast & Furious movies are brainless, dumb and not even very well done technically. But I have rewatched them more times than I can count.

Also, yes, I am gonna enjoy Castlevania to bits, even though Warren Ellis is a horrible human being and should see some fucking consequences for what he did.

Oh, and also, I absolutely hate Zac Snyder and the movies he makes and think that no matter whether intentionally or not they have some horrible politics. But I also can admit that he seems to be a pretty alright guy, who cares a lot about the people around them and is very fun to work with.

Why is that so hard for people to do? Why? Why can they not distinguish between personal likes or dislikes and... you know... Quality? Or morality? These are different things. You can like something and still think it is pretty darn bad. Just as you can dislike something and admit it is actually darn good.

I mean, dumb example, but: I do love eating at McDonalds from time to time, and you can absolutely get me to leave by serving almost anything from the French cuisine. I will still readily admit that the latter is the better quality food AND also more healthy.
