Joss Whedon when asked what his greatest achievement in “The Avengers” was. (Because we all needed to learn an archaic way to call someone a “whining cunt”. That’s something to be proud of.)

#YOU MAKE IT SO HARD TO NOT HATE YOU SOMETIMES JOSS #having loki call black widow a ‘mewling quim’ is not the issue for me #but having a male creator feel SO DAMN PLEASED about getting that expression in there is awful

 #joss ‘literally sculpted from a mound of shit’ whedon #this post and i disagree in that i have no qualms about hating joss whedon

When I went to google it and came across some fanboys blog who wants to high five him for that. I would weep for humanity but I’ve learned that it doesn’t make a difference. I have liked some of the stuff he made but this is gross.

0 issues with hating whedon.

I’ve heard Joss Whedon described as a puppy, because you think he’s great and then he goes and pisses all over your carpet. I feel this is incorrect, because puppies can be trained and none of them think slurs are hilarious.

This is exactly what I am telling people about my issue with Joss Whedon

Whedon, you are not a great feminist writer. I will not fawn over you. And when people ask me why, I WILL POINT TO THIS QUOTE.

No, Avengers has not redeemed you in my eyes. Fuck.

I love this post in equal proportion to how much I hate Joss Whedon.

Hint: I love this post a HUGE FUCKING AMOUNT

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh okay so no one can write offensive things for bad guys to say now?

Joss isn’t a shining beacon of feminist writing but he’s a few rungs above most and

LOKI SAYS THIS LINE

LOKI

THE BAD GUY

It’s not so much that as the fact that fandom and Whedon himself seem to think it’s more of a funny line to be giggled at rather than to be taken, as you said, as something a serious asshole would say.

I just… really. I can’t see the problem here. So what, he rephrased a gendered insult? And, in context, Black Widow follows up by exploiting gender perceptions to successfully get information from Loki and then carries on doing her job unaffected.

This all just strikes me as finding-something-to-be-mad-about, and while I am not saying anything should be left unexamined, just. ABdlkfjasdhg. Context. Language humor. An otherwise unoffensive movie where no woman gets fridged.

Can’t the guy write a line a bad guy would say and also have fun doing it??????

(via psdo)

Well… personally IDGAF that the character says it, especially when Loki’s not portrayed as a person to idolize. It’s what Joss is proud about. He’s not proud about finding an interesting sounding archaic slur for the villain to use and then saying ‘but it’s shitty to call women that so don’t do it’, he’s just proud of getting it  back out there, and people are already using it (I’ve seen it used eleventy billion times already (and not in lolz this is a funny old curse word, but as an insult to make calling someone a bitch or a cunt more “palatable” because the movie is popular right now an it gets a pass) and I have Avengers blacklisted). I’m not even offended by it, tbh, I just think he’s a jackass who gets props on being an omgawesome feminist writer/director/whatever when there are a lot of issues with what he creates and what he says on many levels. Not that his works are bad since I enjoy a lot of them, but IDK why he should get a pass.

So if anyone is interesting in reading the interview this is pulled from here you go. It’s pretty light with both Joss Whedon and his semi-anonymous interviewer Rutherford D. Actualperson joking around.

I wouldn’t take the entire interview 100% seriously because then you’d have to take this 100% seriously:

JW: I’m not sure who you mean. I’m discarding my old fans so I can concentrate on fame, Euro-trash guy-jewelry and my precious “Air Bud” reboot. But, dude, don’t print that! 

Naturally there are moments when I do think he is not joking: 

JW: There are very few perfect movies. “The Court Jester”, “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, “Godfather” I & II… The list does not go on and on. “The Avengers” is notably IMperfect, which makes its success mean so much more to me — because it’s striking a chord that matters MORE than its obvious flaws. Like the team, it appears to be more than the sun of its parts. Boo-yah!

And there are moments when he is half-joking, half-serious: 

JW: [Reads from notecard]. I couldn’t have done this myself. Part of this Saturn Award belongs to Jeremy Latcham, Kevin Feige, and the fine Marvel folk… But the secret ingredient is my closest peeps: J-Mo, who did uncredited punch-up work (carrier battle, yo!), Z-bro, Drew “I am Loki only taller and foppier” Goddard, and Kai, all of whom worked the story with me. Without them (and Jeremy), I’d still be figuring out how the Wasp fits in to this, and where to put Red Hulk.

Take it as you will. Your mileage may vary.

Here’s a cat cleaning things and doing other household chores like a human. Have a nice night, tumblr!
