Emma Frost porno being created, irony calling in sick

Okay, so she shares the spotlight with Zatanna, Catwoman, and Supergirl, in sort of a Disney Princesses deal. Still. I'm the only one weirded out by this, right? Having a character as sexualized as Emma Frost actually being in a porno is like, I don't know, O.J. Simpson writing a book about murdering his wife. It makes you feel like the universe has rolled a one.

That said, it's apparently a POV porn (think a first-person shooter, only someone decided there should be a naked chick in the middle... actually, I think I just successfully biopic-ed the genesis of the POV porn), so if you put a red filter over the screen, you've got the best Cyclops videogame ever.

Alexis Texas (that's a porn name? Sounds more like a bootleg Dr. Seuss character) better be in-character, is all I'm saying. "Oh, you'd probably rather be watching a Jean Grey stag film, wouldn't you? Well let me tell you something: don't let the red hair fool you, that woman is dead under the waist even after a resurrection."

In which I am a cliche

I should probably round out being cynical about an upcoming genre property by watching pro wrestling and disparaging female gamers, but good god, that tagline is the first time I've seen Insane Troll Logic applied to a promotional campaign.

Also, I'm not sure how Hollywood unions work, but it strikes me as less work to just create a good-looking costume in the first place rather than make a crappy one for no reason, than create an ad campaign based around hiding it (for example, with a trailer that makes your superhero movie look like a horror movie take on Columbine, with one fleeting glimpse of the title character at the end... in a mirror... in a blur of motion).
