zizek on democracy now. What a spazz. some cool tid bits in there, a few contradictions and lots of nose wiping.
he has a new book out also, "in defense of lost causes."
about the "failures of leftism, and the central task of beginning a new left project."Quoted: Part two of our wide-ranging discussion with Slavoj Zizek, the philosopher, psychoanalyst and cultural theorist. He has been called the "Elvis of cultural theory" and is widely considered to be one of Europe's leading intellectuals. He has written more than fifty books and speaks to sold-out audiences around the world. [includes rush transcript]

secret wars comic book covers. you can't tell me this isn't sweet~ :P
FYI for the comic geeks - notice the lower left hand corner. this was originally shown to show 'first run' comics vs. reprints. the reprints had bar-codes. also if you notice they show the black custome of spiderman (which you later learn is venom).

i like how awkwardly sincere zizek can appear at times. have you ever noticed the sort of clumsy puppydog aspect to him? to get a zizek is basically like if a golden retriever with an oversized head and paws got hit by a garbage truck and came out all mangled and filthy and humanoid. ..also called cocaine.
by the way, i wrote that before watching. now i am just like jesus i was too hard on the puppy in that comparison. also nice how hard he stumbled over not liking hillary. she doesn't have the 'guts'. you know.. like between her legs maybe?
