Jye enjoys reading Faraci and likes Kevin Smith and Stan Lee.

It's like he's punching me right in the heart!

Did you just whip that up jye or have you been saving that one.

Oh and I see that only two people of questionable taste took the bait and rated TFA higher than Apoc. My little experiment worked, muahaha.

 

[jye4ever]

Nah I whipped it up real quick on the fly between running cables.

Rose McGowan Slams ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ Billboard That Shows Jennifer Lawrence Being Choked

"There is a major problem when the men and women at 20th Century Fox think casual violence against women is the way to market a film,” the Charmed alum told THR. “There is no context in the ad, just a woman getting strangled. The fact that no one flagged this is offensive and frankly, stupid.”

On the one hand, she's got a point. On the other, who gives a **** about her opinion?

 

[YoNoSe]

I see her point. But at the same time, if you know the franchise you are aware that it's powerful mutants doing battle without gender concerns. If you don't know that franchise.....do you even know one of them is a woman? Looks like too silly monsters.

Rose McGowan's social commentary is newsworthy?

Only thing wrong with that banner is it is a lie. Apoca isn't much bigger than Mystique.

 

[RIDDICK]

So I guess if Logan was the "hero" there'd be no problem with marketing...
Rose is a hot chick but dumb as ****. Every time she speaks I feel the pain of real feminists out there.

Correct and as weird as it sounds to say, I think she does have a point. I mean imagine if it was him holding a child or baby (even a blue one) by the neck. I think choking a woman does kind of cross that line as well. There *are* certain taboos that I think are best shied away from. Having this moment be out of context on a billboard wasn't the best decision, IMO.

Anyone who dates Marilyn Manson can't be that dumb.

No, not at all
