I saw this on twitter and thought it relevant to your blog.

There’s so much in this casting call that we’ve talked about indirectly before:

And this was a movie where I was kind of kind of excited about because it had Gamora in it!

It’s one of those cases that disappoints, but doesn’t surprise me. Especially since with the first movie, not unlike with Avengers, they reduced female team member count to one, despite there being more women in the comics.

For all the praise Marvel Cinematic Univese gets, it still has a really hard time letting go of tired tropes and conventions, like the Smurfette Principle and Men Are Strong, Women Are Pretty.

And we should be always pointing that out, for as long as it remains the status quo.

The long-awaited return of Magic Meat Week comes, YES!

Just as last year, we encourage all the artists among our readers to contribute to the 

#MagicMeatWeek tumblr tag throughout the upcoming week! Let the world know there’s a demand for sexy under-dressed fantasy dudes!

BABD will be celebrating the week by reblogging artwork found in the tag as extra sexy male armor posts. And possibly, by extending the next Happy Friday.

Well that’s female armor…

Comedy writing rule of thumb: addressing an inherent problem with what you’re replicating and then failing to illustrate the absurdity or even why it’s a problem means you fail to make it satire.

Especially when your “joke” consists the same excuses that everyone and their mother was making for ages.

For any aspiring games developers out there who thought they’d use this “joke” take note – this was first released in 1991.  That’s nearly a quarter century ago and quite possibly before you were born.
