Batman vs. Darth Vader

gorillaman says...

Maybe the first time I've been happy to receive a downvote. A suitably and if I may say so, attractively, nerdy analysis.

I don't know, the Batman I know might just have been arrogant enough to try something like this - he did once fistfight a bunch of white martians. Or this could be the fight as it plays out in his head while he's deciding he needs a better plan, if you've read Midnighter you know what I'm talking about.

I always thought the dark side was unreasonably maligned. That old Batman as a green lantern story was a disappointment; I now want to read a book about Batman growing up in the Star Wars universe...learning about the force...deciding the Sith had to be dealt with...

Cool video. But, as a Batman fan I downvote this on principle alone...

I've love to see a role reversal here: nerdy guy posing suggestively on the table with his dorkish glove while the pretty chick pots balls around him.

What a strange video.

What happens if you reverse sex roles in advertising?

bmacs27 says...

What you mean to say is that the nerdy guy is appreciably overweight, and the nerdy girl is not. And you are correct, even this forward thinking video could not bring itself to put an overweight woman on camera.

1. The nerdy guy in the second ad isn't hot by any definition (sorry dude) but the nerdy girl is just an attractive woman wearing glasses. Is it really so hard to find an ugly woman?

JustSaying says...

I only upvoted because I'm a sexist pig (titties!). The video fails in two points.
1. The nerdy guy in the second ad isn't hot by any definition (sorry dude) but the nerdy girl is just an attractive woman wearing glasses. Is it really so hard to find an ugly woman? Seriously, can we please stop that stupid idea that glasses make people ugly? And no, I don't wear any.
2. Why do men look ridiculous in these ads and womwen don't? What a stupid question.
Imagine a very attractive woman wearing nothing but knee high socks posing in different ways. Most of these possible poses will look more or less sexual/sexy, a few vulgar and even fewer acrobatic/weird. There will very, very, very few poses where she's going to look stupid.
Now imagine a very attractive man wearing nothing but knee high socks posing the same way. How many poses can you picture in your mind until you reach one that looks ridiculous? How many can you imagine that don't look ridiculous at all?
And now, for the extra challenge, imagine the guy having a huge erection. Yep, it get's harder (not an intended pun).
The male body with it's floppy dong is as naturally ridiculous as the female body is naturally sexy. It's very deeply ingrained in our human minds. That's why most jokes about homosexuality make make men their butt (yes, that pun was intended and I think it's pure genius, thankyouverymuch).

After Hours: 4 Disney Villains Who Were Right All Along

Michael Swaim acts like a goofy pervert. Daniel O'Brien acts like a nerdy, yet dumb-ish know-it-all. Soren Bowie acts like a pompous, yet likeable douche know-it-all who is usually right most of the time.

And Katie Willert just gets frustrated by being in the presence of all three.

Pretty much par for the course!

Nothing to Prove - Geek Girls & The Doubleclicks

eric3579 says...

I entered this scene through rejection and honesty
Nerds weren't mean, they were weird and that worked for me
After 10 years of teasing when social skills failed me
Dungeons & Dragons cured all that ailed me

We read books, we played games, we made art, we watched Lost
We said things like "D20", "shipping" and "Mana cost"
It felt good to be myself, not being mocked
Still self-conscious, though, we whispered things about jocks

But one day, you grow up, come into your own
Now geek's not rejection - it's a label I own
Then ignorant haters come to prove me wrong
Tell me I'm not nerdy enough to belong

I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove

Fake Geek Girl test - that's a funny one, go ahead
How many comic books are there I haven't read?
I know it feels good to have a contest you win
It would feel even better if I wanted in

So women aren't geeks, so is that your conclusion?
That this is some secret club based on exclusion?
12-year-old dorks would say you're being selfish
And then they'd go write in their journals in Elvish

I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove

I've got cred but honestly, I shouldn't need it
This world needs all kinds of folks to complete it
You've got gamers, and artists and comic subscribers
Cosplayers, crafters and fan-fiction writers

You can stop - never say "fake geek" again
Our club needs no bouncers - all who want in get in
But go ahead, if you want, to own that role fully
I ain't got nothing to prove to a bully!

I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove
I've got nothing to prove
