He is way better than those guys, I agree with that. My biggest advice when getting into him would be to try and not get stuck. He has a lot of good opinions and is a funny guy, but a lot of people I know discovered Zizek when they were like 15 and still worship him.

Zizek is like Sartre, he is only known for being a celebrity, the most important things about him are that he is well read a Marxist and makes interesting commentary on things, but none of it is worthwhile or useful and usually just atavistically piggy backs on more important people’s work. Kinda like deleuze even.

So you haven't read them? Do you just want a list of concepts or, what do you expect exactly? Hegel had a very fruitful theory of negation. Heiddegarian ontology (ontic/ontical/ontological). Baurillard has some very applicible models in Similacra and Simulation (stages of sign-order). Zizek's theory of ideology as well as his theory of ontological incompleteness are the most influential. Does that help?
