I’ve been a fan of Ryan and Shane since the unsolved days and followed them onto watcher, and found myself pleasantly surprised by Steven’s content as well. Never in my life have I seen a fandom turn so quickly against the creators it claimed to love, in such a vitriolic, hateful, racist fashion. As a poc myself, it made me queasy to see some tweets calling Steven and Ryan ‘rats’ while absolving Shane of any wrongdoing and blame in the same breath. Some of y’all are vile and, given the nasty outrage, you’d think watcher broke into your house, stole all your money and kidnapped your pet on the way out instead of, idk, overestimating themselves and making a stupid business move.

Hi, just wanted to ask a honest question because I've seen you post about it a few times and I genuinely don't understand where you're coming from when you say this. How is remake Leon a misogynist?
Most recently I saw you point out him calling Ada heartless, but I don't see how that's him being sexist. He says that in response to her telling him information on where to find Ashley, having previously told him to leave her behind (to presumably die or worse), and I don't think its misogynistic for him to make a jab at her for that. Especially because Leon's big motivation is saving people, of course he wouldn't be a huge fan of anyone telling him to intentionally leave someone to die if he's able to save them. (This is also not to say Ada's a bad person for suggesting that, I love Ada and her character but I also understand why Leon would be upset by such a thing)
If there's anything else in the remakes that I've missed you point out I'm curious to what else makes him misogynistic because I just don't see it.
Also like a sidenote I guess almost all of Leon's misogynistic lines are from original re4 but Luis also has lines like this, so I don't understand why he gets to be distinguished between versions and Leon doesn't when you talk about their characters.
"honest question" and yet, you seem to have already formulated an idea of my answer (and an opinion of me) based off of one post where I casually mentioned it, and you decided to look no further before getting defensive about it. Are you even asking? Do you even care to learn? Or will you just ignore everything I say? And asking anonymously is very funny to me. Literally who are you.
I talked about it here, kinda joked about it here, and I very thoroughly detailed it here, as well as reiterated in the comments. I'm so tired of repeating myself. It's 1am now bc I took the time to find these posts for you lol. Maybe read them before you try attacking a straw man.
But to the Luis point? I absolutely do separate og RE4 Leon and remake Leon… Like literally my entire POINT is that no, remake Leon is still sexist, just differently, and here is why… I really don't understand how you came to this conclusion lmao.
The main idea is, Capcom thinks they've written out Leon's misogyny; but because Capcom itself is a very bigoted company, they perpetrate misogyny in everything they make and they don't even realise it! They genuinely think the way they wrote remake Leon absolves him from the misogyny when it doesn't, it just re-contextualises it in a way that Capcom deems palatable. They still see Ada as an extension of Leon! They still see Ada's worth revolving solely around how Leon feels in response to her actions. It's ridiculous. And the way Leon is written to treat her, the lines he's given towards her, reflect this attitude, and becomes misogynistic when he treats a male character who has done worse than Ada right in front of Leon with respect and empathy.

I hate when "I think the ending of this show/ book/movie was bad" gets dismissed with "oh you're just mad your ship didn't become canon" or "you're sad a fave died". Sometimes writers do NOT know how to end things and the writing IS just shit. It really is that simple.

can I ask what company you went through to print the zine? :O
i used Mixam, who are UK based. for my first experience with printing i am very happy with the quality of print and the help i received (they double check your prints for quality and sizing before going to print and flag these for you (we had no issues)) and the time/ship turnover for the price. they don't do zine/print samples (i could not find a UK printer with samples, i would like one lol) but they sent me paper samples and have a lot of options (we used the gloss for the covers. i fucking love it) and have online previews/proofs. I will likely use them again for future zines or even prints. There is also pixartprinting (who do a lot of interesting packaging things if that interests you) and i have been recommended zapcreatives (who do samples on stickers) and stickerapp for 'other' merch but have not used them myself.
