- What, you mean you think I should be surprised that the writer of the only negative review of The Avengers on Rotten Tomatoes is getting harassed by nerds? Sadly, I’m not. What you mean you think I should be surprised that their getting accusations of performing sexual favors to get their job? Huh, actually – Oh, they’re a woman? Yeah, no, sadly, I’m not.

- I’ll keep linking stories about Alan Moore and Jack Kirby and creator rights and its long term effect on the industry until something actually happens, so you should probably just get used to it. (The Beat)
Black Milk Clothing, home of lots of really expensive and surprisingly high fashion nerd clothing just showed off these Harley Quinn leggings and we’re all drooling over here. (Melissa Kay)
- io9 has a roundup of all the places Star Trek writers have gone after Star Trek. Turns out, it’s some of our favorite people and series.
The cast of Star Wars MST3Ks Firefly. Your argument is invalid. (Fashionably Geek)
This is the first photo from the long-coming new season of Red Dwarf. (Blastr)

Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.
