Superhero Movie Idea
Our hero, a mild
mannered office worker, runs out of staples and on his way to the corner shop
takes a wrong turn and stumbles accidentally into a top secret underground laboratory.
Here he discovers a chemical substance that swells his body with muscles and transforms
him into a historical-materialist with a big beard. Calling himself Theoryman,
he dons a cape and ragged trousers and decides to fight hypocrisy and old Young-Hegelians
with no sense of humour. After sharing his discovery with his girlfriend -who
dresses in tight clothing and becomes his crime-fighting partner known as the Bakunin-
the duo fight recurring enemies such as the mutant robot monkey Cheetor whilst
highlighting the inherent contradictions of the capitalist method of
production. The finale is a spectacular city battle which sees Cheetor unleash
his demon undead army and Theoryman respond by telling them that they are
oppressed and that education leads to freedom. A fierce criticism of society's
superstructure weakens it and it ultimately collapses on itself taking Cheetor
with it. Theoryman and the Bakunin make love amongst the ruins as mindless
celebrity worship burns brightly around them…

What would an ultra Hegelian be like? Someone like Jordan? The dialectic of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis is used as an analytic tool in order to approach a higher unity or a new thesis in her tits alone!
ReplyDeleteI really have no response to that.
