Zizek is for Real
For years and years, I’ve been critical of the Slovenian philosopher Zizek: He writes too much; his thinking has no center; his Marxism is spoiled and unusable. Then I watched the new documentary on him, ¡Zizek!, last night and was impressed to the point of revising my opinion of the philosopher. Zizek is a brilliant thinker, and much better in person than in books. I will go as far as to say he is the only philosopher of substance at this moment. Watch the documentary, which will be at NWFF next month, and you will see exactly what I mean.
eh, he gives good tv, and that makes him a brilliant thinker? i dunno.
