H2O #107: In Which We Discuss the Lesbian Sacrifice and the Man of Steel

Apr 1, 2016 SciFi4Me Staff 1152 Views 0 Comments Batman, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Ben Affleck, bury your gays, DC Comics, lesbian sacrifice, Man of Steel, Superman, The 100, The Walking Dead, tropes, Warner Bros., Zack Snyder

It’s a discussion that may (or may not, depending on how much you care) set off some comments and ire. Maybe.

Did The 100 and The Walking Dead play into the well-worn tropes of “The Lesbian Sacrifice” or the “Bury Your Gays” or the “fridging” like some have complained? And is the trope actually the trope everyone says it is? Or is it much broader and people are just reading into it based on their own perspectives?

Plus: Zack Snyder just doesn’t get Superman. And we discuss a bit about why Batman v Superman doesn’t work for some people.
