So this post could be the logical continuation of my Shame Day post on Akira, which focused on Hollywood’s complete lack of respect for a film they’re looking to remake. David Goyer, a man I already cared very little for as a screenwriter, said some disparaging things about She-Hulk in a podcast [which from my understanding has since been edited somewhat]. He went on, however, to insult comic book fans everywhere, with the words:
“How many people in the audience have heard of Martian Manhunter?”
<pause>
“How many people that raised their hands have ever been laid?”
I could certainly delve into this much more, but Chris Sims over at ComicsAlliance already has, and done so quite well. Check out what he has to say, because he smartly points out that the one who just said these things has a hand in the future of DC’s cinematic universe. I’ll bring everything concerning that terrible man to a close with the following two panels-
Anyway, as the title of this post would suggest, I have some blog news for you all.
As I am leaving for a country that is has very recently undergone a military coup, CWR will be going on hiatus for the following three weeks. This will allow all of us to take a much-needed break, as well as for you to let us know how we’re doing.
Seriously, though, people have been responding really well to Kat’s post on how the Christian subculture has been dealing with purity, and that’s just great. We want to be able to keep writing on subjects that are relevant and contemporary, and that interest you as readers. Any feedback you could provide us whatsoever would be very greatly appreciated.
While updates here will more or less be entirely absent [barring a topic we feel absolutely must be addressed] our Facebook page will continue posting. It’s a great place to keep updated on issues we find important, and is also a way for you to leave comments and contact us.
I’d just like to thank any and all of you for visiting the blog, as our daily hits are the highest they’ve been in a very long time. We like to think it’s because we’re doing better, and only want to improve from there. Absolutely anything you have to tell us will be appreciated, though less so if it’s not very polite.
We’ll see you all midway through June! Here’s a gif of Survivor: Cagayan‘s Woo eating ribs.
