I'm pretty sure the people he's talking about don't give two shits about whether or not they can "get away" with saying faggot. It's just getting kind of old now.
He once went on a rant how you couldn't say "cuck" because is was supposedly racist and sexist. Funny how any insult that gets lobbed at him becomes a no-no word, even if all it means is "you are the type to ingest vast amounts of soy."
I beg to differ, they glossed over a lot of symbolism from that movie, it was the perfect movie to nitpick and they managed to ruin it (mostly JesuOtaku)
Utena deserves better.

Oh it was a less then perfect criticism of the Utena movie (which was a fucking joke compared to the series) but the two of them were fairly amusing in the video itself, is more what I ment. I didn't really like them enough to seek out more videos by either of them, but they left a good impression. Apparently one that didn't stick the test of time.
I felt that the animation and artwork were fantastic, but wasted on an attempt to distill a 40 episode anime with multiple story arcs into a 2 hour movie. They didn't just cut away the fat, they cut right down to the bone. Many arcs were cut away completely, and what they did use was often mangled to the point that whole chunks of the movie made no sense unless you were a huge fan of the series. I have to admit that I loved the dance sequence they added in, but the way they completely pussified Akio, one of the ur-examples of the "magnificent bastard" was a massive waste and then that ending....holy shitballs. What in the actual FUCK was the thinking in that whole sequence?
I am completely with Kyle when he screams out "WHY DID THIS PINK HAIRED BITCH TURN INTO A FUCKING CAR??!?!?!?" and him shoving JesuOtaku hard when she answers "SYMMMMMBOLISM!!!!"
Cars = adulthood = sex = adulthood was a symbolic thing in the TV anime. And the movie takes that further with a car can't drive without a key, someone can be physically grown and do "adult" things but will rot without guidance or purpose (a "key") kind of like how the Prince became Akio in the TV anime.
