Warren Ellis is quite a prolific writer. His resume reads like an index. His work on Resolute was simply a writer-for-hire gig. He'd be the first to tell you. Here he posts about never having laid eyes on a GI Joe in his life. Whitechapel - Ellis writes G.I. JOE: RESOLUTE Whether or not Warren Ellis is a part of the Postmodernism movement, I would conclude that only HE should speak on his behalf. As a writer of his caliber, the last thing he would want to do is pigeonhole and classify his work... especially with such a heavy tag. But... for the sake of edification... if you can say that Resolute takes place "in a world where everything is possible and almost nothing is certain," and also, paradoxically, a world based on Science... you have Postmodernism. |

I never thought I'd see the word "postmodernism" on this board. That's impressive.
Also, I don't see much postmodernism in the movie at all, really. It's fairly rigid in terms of it's characters' ethical make-up, the good guys and bad guys are pretty completely defined, there's no moral relativism anywhere to be found. No one is really searching for answers or wrestling with any ultimate questions, it's just good guys vs. bad guys.

Ellis sucks at life. And then he cries about things he reads on the internet. Cry over this post Ellis...cry over this.
