zizek is comedy philosophy. he's more of an 'entertainer' than a thinker.a third rate psychoanalysis of a hollywood movie, while fun to read and listen to, is devoid of any philosophical significance.
he's someone i would want to hang out with, and be a drinking buddy to. more so than any philosopher that i respect actually.

Oh, really, he'd be a good drinking buddy? Great analysis, bro. Stick to telling people to eat their own assholes and stay out of the adult conversations.

It would have to be a tie between:

this is strictly a "most a man can be without virtue thing". Other conquerors don't impress me as much because of their more simplistic warfare.
>Jesus
Look, say what you want. He's basically Superman. Even if he's not the son of god, even if he doesn't exist, even if blah blah blah. The man has influenced so many peoples' lives and so much of history by example in a book it's nigh impossible to ignore it.

He's been known to completely misunderstand and misapply Hegel. He's also been shown to misunderstand Lacan, who he uses so much and self declares himself a Lacanian expert.

People claiming Zizek doesn't understand Hegel are like Highschool science geeks who think leading physicists don't understand Quantum phenomena. Okay, their ideas don't agree with yours, but your ideas are probably ill thought out.
