>"One of the things I like about the X-Men is they're not killing people. I miss the idea of... heroes who stop that kind of thing from happening. Here's why I'm not running Marvel: If I was, I would kill the Punisher. I don't believe in what he does. The Punisher just shoots up places. And if you're telling me he's never hit an innocent, then I'm telling you, that's fascist crap" ~Joss Whedon
Too lazy to look up if this is a true quote or not but at this point I'll take any excuse to pile onto him

Jace Myers
Did this shitty man say this? Maybe he's just deluded since he's married to Hugo Weaving in a wig
Josiah Davis
Everything this guy says and does is so hilariously bad.
Jack Garcia

Christopher Torres
Capeshit was a mistake
Gavin Howard
I wish the Punisher was real so he could bash Wedon in the head with a rock
Jace Murphy
Sometimes you need a person who can pull the trigger, Josh.
Samuel Gutierrez
WTF I hate capeshit now
Cameron Lee
>he's married to Hugo Weaving in a wig
Austin Green
I hate capeshit but this dude is an absolute fat fucking faggot
Jayden Miller
>taking comics this seriously Fuck off JOSS.
Easton Martinez
>kill Punisher, if I ran Marvel >killing a fictional character off for his motifs This is actually retarded, wow.
Ayden Adams
The Punisher doesn't kill innocent people.
William Gonzalez

Hudson Rodriguez
kek I bet she pegs him.
Gabriel Campbell
holy shit is his wife a tranny
Benjamin Brooks
Tranny
Jack Sanders
Josh Wheddon has killed a lot of comedy with his directing.
Adrian Mitchell
Is Whedon aware that the most popular X-Man, by far, is an unrepentant killer whose main power is having fucking knives pop out of his fists?
Luke Miller
it's real
desu there's nothing wrong with killing rapists and murderers. i consider myself left leaning but child molesters, rapists, murderers are all scum and should either be chemically castrated and locked up or just serviced with one clean shot to the brain.
Benjamin Parker
me on the left

Lincoln Thomas
>And if you're telling me he's never hit an innocent, then I'm telling you, that's fascist crap" >fascist
what did he actually mean by this?
Adam Ortiz
Source appears to be a reddit thread and wiki which claims source of some physical Entertainment Weekly article with no hyperlink
Personal choice how much you trust that.
There is nothing retarded about getting rid of characters/concepts you don't like if you're the head editor. They do it all the time.
Jack Edwards
let me guess you're american
Angel Myers
buddy if you really had something to say you would say you don't believe in the worth of super hero movies.
Anthony Wood
He like King Beta now.
Elijah Gutierrez
I know they do it all the time, but that's still fucking retarded. Business-wise. Literally ignoring your audience. Marvel is shit, most companies are, everyone does the same narcisstic mistakes. But it's still retarded of him to say it anyway
Bentley Allen
>dude everything i don't like is fascism lmao
Ayden Morales
Killing people is kewl. Glad I'm a red pilled alpha that is too tough and real to be a beta with moral values.
t. totally not a child
Nolan Baker
Go away Joss you bitter old fuck.
Aaron Morales
what has nationality got to do with it?
these people should definitely not procreate and pass on their fucked up genes
Henry Young
In nu-speak, fascist means 'anyone who has different political opinions from me'.
Nathaniel Adams
...
Asher Young
>killing a make believe character because his make believe opinions in his make believe word dont match your real world politics
this is the next level of manbaby impotent rage and entitlement
Henry Cooper
What does that have to do with Joss Whedon?
Bentley Thompson
Joss is innocent.
Leo Harris
...
Adam Anderson
Innocent until proven guilty by court of law, faglord.
Austin Wilson
That's facist crap
Wyatt Rogers
...
Sebastian Richardson
>directs Marvel movies >not guilty of crimes against kino
Yeah, okay.
Gavin Ramirez
Come on guys. She wasnt that bad looking when she was younger. Beta Whedon probably thought he hit the lottery when she agreed to sleep with him.
Jack Ward
Prove it.
Michael Fisher
Wolverine has killed the same amount of people if not more and hes in every goddamn x-men movie as the main star
Angel Harris
...
Blake Edwards
I don't know what to say.
Ryder Jones
HOLY fuck was he ever ugly
Levi Jackson

Brandon Barnes
WHY, MR WHEDON? WHY, WHY DO YOU PERSIST?
Dominic Green
>Strong black and white thinking >romanticization of violence and radical action for actions sake >paramilitary actor flouting weak civil society to violently murder/purge the supposedly corrupt >conflation of deviancy with criminality and objective evil >only the wicked are hurt with cleansing radical unaccountable violence, the righteous survive and thrive >"good guys" wear skulls
If fascism is really a thing that anyone can believe in then yeah I'd say there's actually some heavy overlap with what he's talking about and fascist thinking.
Nathan Sanders
He's an eye man.
William Brown
>punisher is fascist crap If the punisher is fascist, then Iroman hyper fascist, a guy who gets rich buy selling guns to terrorists and then goes to where the terrorists are hiding and kills hundreds of people, is he implying that ironman never killed an innocent person was just hanging around, fuck off Joss you rich asshole.
James Mitchell
Didn't The X-Men have a special team dedicated to killing people and doing shady shit?
Daniel Mitchell
Didn't he create a character whose sole purpose is to exterminate a race of sentient beings?
Easton Jenkins
How sensitive of him.
Christopher Ross
Let me guess you're one of the people who unironically supports Roman Polanski's acts
John Murphy
Yes, formed by Cyclops and led by Wolverine
Juan Long
When will these fucking idiots learn how to shut the fuck up?
Thomas Edwards
I don't understand.
How is Frank Castle scouting out the place, being prepared and planning ahead fascist?
Are only fascists capable of planning ahead, making sure they don't kill innocents?
Is that what he's saying?
Connor Morales
>that's fascist crap Literally what did he mean by this?
Christian Richardson
say that to Frank's face you faggot
Brandon Gomez
>When will these fucking idiots learn how to shut the fuck up?
For some reason this thread makes me think of Joss Whedon's run on Astonishing X-men
The one where the X-men go to some warlord planet full of warrior people that do nothing except constantly war against each other for supremacy. And they meet the one mutant SJW on the planet that has the mutation of caring about things like setting up hospitals for war ophans and other gay shit. And then it turns out the SJW is trying to use them to genocide her entire planet because she can't stand how shitty and pointless her race is. Then the X-men "save the day" by killing the one SJW of the planet so fucking Breakworld can thrive many centuries into the future massacring civilians in pointless wars.
I thought that was a pretty fun run, except for the retarded giant space bullet.
Kevin Scott
The face isn't even the worst thing. Look at her fucking skin , Jesus Christ. WHY does she shows off her cleavage?
John Fisher
No but you see creating a science fantasy epic isn't about worldbuilding, massive atmospheres and beautiful rendered action set-peices, it's about how many hamfisted metaphors about american race relations (as understood by a ugly, underendowed jewish millionaire's son) you can cram in the script. This is why Avatar bombed so hard, it's allegory was too subtle.
Liam Anderson
>it's allegory was too subtle Are the American masses seriously this dumb, that movie was anything but subtle
Joseph Martin
>$508,374
Liam Myers
>I like not killing people >I'd kill the Punisher Not much of a hero desu.
William Reed
You know who else kills innocent people? You know who has literally crucified innocents?
Christopher Carter
What is it with middle aged, balding, ginger men being complete cuckolds?
Thomas Bailey
Jesus christ what a cuck
Tyler Bailey
That's probably 1 months royalties. It's nothing to him.
Their politics don't bug me. I don't agree, but whatever. What does bug me is they could actually help people directly and choose not to, instead giving millions to political machines that ultimately do nothing.
Alexander Torres
She killed like everyone in Astapor for no real reason, she could've killed the Good Masters and the soldiers but she went for EVERYONE
Christian Sullivan
You know she's the secret villain of the series right?
Robert Phillips
Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Pa-
oh wait
Nolan Mitchell
>1 months royalties I seriously doubt that.
Tyler Reed
I will literally never be as mad about anything as he is about this
He's got to be in the top percentile of biggest cunts on the face of the Earth
Jaxson Gray
dubs are a fascist
Luis Johnson
yup, this looks right
Brayden Robinson
His shows are continually in syndication around the world, man. Not counting the flicks he gets a take on.
It's probably a slight exaggeration, but Whedon is undoubtedly rolling in it. Half a mill is nothing.
Blake Rodriguez
>The mean man uses guuuns a bloobloobloo
Angel Anderson
This can't be real
Landon Rogers
It's not like he deleted them
Luis Reed
The world would be a better place if this guy and every single person who follows him on twitter would die today.
Jayden Roberts
He gets royalties for Roseanne, Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse and gets a check for every episode of Agents of Shield and he doesnt even do anything on that show.
Benjamin Anderson
Not to mention that Wolverine alone has a kill count that rivals the Punisher's if not out and out surpassing it.
