The Philosophy of Wonder Woman – Wisecrack Edition

Here is a great analysis of the Wonder Woman movie from 2017. I really liked the ideas being discussed.



The concept about whether or not people deserved to be saved or not. The truth is that in the movie, Ares was right. We don't deserved to be saved. None of us. What I liked about Wonder Woman is that she learned it's not that we deserve help. What makes her a hero is that she helps and protects others although they can't pay her back or deserve it. What do you think?

Rise of 'Anonymous' Fuels Sales Of Time Warner's 'V For Vendetta' Masks - ComicsAlliance | Comic book culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews

This is an interesting article from Comics Alliance.

In a New York Times piece published this week, writer Nick Bilton makes the keen observation that the cultural ascension of hacker group Anonymous has been a financial boon for Warner Bros., the media company that owns the Guy Fawkes image that protesters wear as a mask. Based on the character "V" from Alan Moore and David Lloyd's classic graphic novel V For Vendetta (as well as the film based on the book), the Guy Fawkes mask sells over 100,000 units a year, with Warner Bros. -- the parent company of comics publisher Vertigo -- earning a licensing fee for each mask sold.

Having staged popular protests, acts of civil disobedience and well-documented hacks against such targets as the Church of Scientology, the Iranian government, Sony, credit card companies and many more, Anonymous is the world's most visible expression of anarchy and rebellion in the digital age. It is a curious irony that the group's activities necessarily fund the activities of the sort of establishment they might seem predisposed to dislike, Warner Bros. and its parent entity, Time Warner.

Henry Cavill to Star as The Man of Steel in Zack Snyder's 'Superman' Reboot - ComicsAlliance | Comics culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews

I have read 3 pretty cool blog articles announcing that Henry Cavill will be playing Superman in the reboot film next year! I was like "who?" but at least they give a descent background to who this actor is. I wish him and the film much success. I think with Christopher Nolan and Zack Snyder can pull off a good Superman movie. Of the three articles, I think Comics Alliance's article has the best picture of Cavill because he look like Superman in it. I can see it. I also agree with the G4TV that Brandon Routh really got a raw deal. I didn't like Superman Returns a whole lot, but that wasn't Routh's fault. Hopefully this new movie will be much better.
