This gaiman stuff is funny. I knew of him by reputation as God King of Nerds, but wasn’t really familiar with his work.

At some point I watched the movie Stardust and distinctly got the impression that whoever wrote had serious issues with relationships with women. When I saw Gaiman’s name in the credit, I did a doubletake…this is seriously the true-north moral barometer guy people are sucking off all the time??? The whole situation seems pretty predictable.

This is just a long way of saying I Always Knew And I Never Liked Him.

I actually like that movie, what was wrong with it in terms of relationships with women?

the first girl is shallow and vapid and the guy is dumb for pining after her, but how is that different from those sorts of tropes appearing in basically all media, every romantic comedy where after adversity together the guy ends up with the right girl in the end
