No Progan Logan

Stan Lee never said he didn’t want a diverse or gay Spiderman. What he did say was that Peter Parker was an established character and that he saw no reason to change PETER PARKER. He went on to say that he would even write a gay and diverse Spiderman as an entirely new character. So fuck off with that shit.

Furthermore the allegations against Stan Lee for sexual misconduct were thoroughly investigated, and it was found that the women who made these allegations were abusing him. A vulnerable 90 year old man with ALZHEIMER’S. Can you imagine not remembering doing the thing a person is accusing you of? Have you been around people with Alzheimer’s? I took care of my grandmother who had advanced Alzheimer’s. She once slapped me clean across the face because she thought I was an intruder and had no memory of it.

TODAY, THIS EXACT DAY: NOVEMBER 2, 2018

HECTOR RIVERA RETURNS TO THE LAND OF THE LIVING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 97 YEARS.

(CONFIRMED BY DIRECTOR)

REBLOG THIS POST AND CELEBRATE BECAUSE THIS DAY ONLY COMES ONCE

And then I see that it’s only got 50 odd percent on Rotten Tomatoes which, whatever, critics suck. THEN I read a review to see what everyone’s mad about and let me tell you I am fuming.

I read an economist article that worried that stopping other biopic in 1985 “might prevent an excellent performance from being a prize-winning one, of the sort that earned Oscars for Tom Hanks in “Philadelphia” (1993) and Matthew McConaughey in “Dallas Buyers Club” (2013).”

What. The. fuck. One of my favourite things about this film is that it didn’t show the horrible, pain-porn, graceful and yet horrific decline into aids that every other film about queer men in the 80’s milks out. The LGBT community knows about the aids crisis. Everyone knows that Freddie died of AIDS related illnesses. I’m so fucking sick of gay tragedies.

I loved this film because instead of being a glorification of his death it was a celebration of his life. You want to know when Freddie Mercury informed the public he had AIDS? The day before he died. He didn’t want to be a poster boy, a spectacle. He was a person outside of his illness.

Queer people don’t exist to die peacefully on your screen, leaving you with a hopeful majestic quote about how really everything’s going to be a alright. Growing up gay I truly thought I wouldn’t be able to be happy. Why? Because in every portrayal of a queer character they either died horribly or died alone.
