This Year’s Biggest Superhero Movies Are All About America’s Descent into Fascism
A few days ago, many people were shocked—shocked!—at a pair of new studies that found that many Americans have authoritarian tendencies. They want a strong leader, who can sort out “those” people. This went against everything we had lazily chosen to believe about America! But it’s also pretty apparent if you pay any…
Supergirl Proves That Dorky Cuteness Can Still Pack One Hell of a Punch
It’s hard not to read Supergirl in the context of our ongoing culture war over what kind of heroes we’re allowed to value. And no, I’m not referring to gender issues (although Supergirl has plenty to say about them too) but the all-important grimdark-vs-fun schism in hero narratives.

Here's How The Lego Movie Should Have Ended
It is a scientifically proven and totally undisputed fact that The Lego Movie is the greatest movie ever made. It makes Gone With the Wind look like Freddie Got Fingered. But we're not here to debate or discuss that (because obviously it's true so what's there to talk about). But in this new video we get a look at how…

Why do we hate so many female characters so much?
I seem to recall in 2013 there was a big deal about Thanksgiving and the first day of Hanukkah coinciding. Well, since the post-apocalypse happened so soon after that, I guess that's why we kind of ended up merging Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and Christmas into a month-long celebration of gift-giving, drinking, and good…
Justin Bieber: Internet's Best Troll, or Batman's New Robin?
I'll be honest: sometime around the monkey-abandoning incident in Germany, I hopped aboard the Justin Bieber hatemobile, which is basically just an overloaded jalopy driven by a foul-tempered orangutan named #1JoostinHatrr (apes can't spell). I was convinced we were watching the very public entropy of a…

Here’s That Man of Steel Porn Parody You Probably Can’t Masturbate To
Porn parodies aren’t really for titillation, right? They’re for watching after senior prom with a bunch of friends you’ll eventually drift apart from because the only memory you’ll share after another five years will be, “Hey, remember when we all drank grenadine spritzers and watched that stunt fulfill his heroic…

Formerly 'Fat' Henry Cavill Talks Weight Loss, Leaves Shirt On
Man of Steel hits theaters June 14, and the star, Henry Cavill ("Rhymes with travel," he says) has landed the cover of Details. Superman is a somewhat physical role, and the superhero's build is part of the character, so it makes sense that Cavill would be asked about his own body and eating habits. "I was fat," he…
