There is in fact a segment of the hearing impaired community that considers cochlear implants to be eugenics/genocide. I don't remember if any or all hearing aids also count.

if you're a little person you need to marry a little person and have children or else it's a genocide.  Hmph

Mindblown
I can't believe Hollywood is casting a marketable star instead of catering to discredited afrocentric pseudohistory that academics won't even touch. 

facepalm

Maybe do some basic research, chud: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Athena

I'm pretty sure Athena is even played by Lupita Nyongo in Nolan's movie. Not sure what they're even mad at when the movie seems to be typically Hollywood diverse despite the setting

And Zendaya and John leguizamo and ELLIOTT PAGE

Last time John Leguizamo was in the news, he was complaining that the Mario cartoon didn’t have a Latino Luigi. Fun times.

Definitely going to want to see some trailers and reviews before watching that one. Casting doesn't seem to inspire confidence.

It'll be good because it's Nolan. The only question is how good.

This article gives me the understanding of what that feeling was.

And don't get me started on all the people on social media crying out "Where's Black people!?" On the front lines for their various causes.

Some of us got y'all's message loud and clear last year. We're taking a fiver.

Don't worry. BossAttack is here to knock the Marveldrones down a peg with the reality check.

Parthenios wrote:I think there's an interesting idea here but one of the main premises is wrong. MCU Steve Rogers was frequently seen as and expected to be an anti-MAGA symbol, with Chris Evans even playing into that off the screen. If the MCU had Rogers came out and both sides'd Nazis ("Do better, Red Skull!") there'd be consternation there too.

BossAttack wrote:Yep.

I disagree with the entire article which basically boils down to, "we should demand less from our entertainment, yes even the big blockbuster called CAPTAIN AMERICA, who is supposed to embody the noble American hero." Sorry, but no. We don't need to write excuses for corporate weakness.

I'm sorry, but I must've lived through an entirely different reality where Winter Soldier was throughly meme'd for it's "70's political thriller" aspect. Yet even it at least has Cap fighting his old Nazi enemies in the modern day. And then everyone complained that Civil War wasn't even a Cap film but a mini-Avengers film with zero bite.

No one forced Marvel to make Captain America films and no one forced them to give Sam the shield. So, we can ridicule and criticize the weakness of these films as the political reality in this country is only worse. This article literally tries to argue that Sam is the aspirational leader kids need these days, because you gotta talk to and reason with MAGA racists and traitors just like he reasoned with Red Hulk.

GTFO. No, it's not aspirational to be so tepid that you can't even we words like fascism or racism or Nazis in your film. Stop. It's just a cookie cutter hero film.

but everyone ignores the post. Wink

Women and minority characters leading superhero films get one chance at bat, apparently, and if they don't nail the absolute perfect home run then it feels like they must never be seen or heard from again. The bar is raised for them and they absolutely cannot be mediocre. That's probably a seperate discussion, but it sucks.

Falcon and the winter soldier was already pretty mediocre and then they still made a whole movie as a followup...

Not saying there isn't some truth to the sentiment but not sure you can apply it here.

This is such obvious fucking bullshit I honestly can't even be bothered to address it outside of pointing out the reason nobody talks about Wakanda Forever is because it is a fucking shit film, and took a lot of cash from a lot of people who were super hyped about the first one. Same reason nobody talks about WW84 - people feel a little cheated and won't show up for a third swing unless its a major tonal shift / reboot a la thor: ragnarok coming after thor: dark world

In defense of WW84, theaters were dead with COVID and it was same day as streaming. As far as 2020 movies after February, it and Tenet were the two biggest. Also in 2020, people got furious at Christopher Nolan for wanting Tenet released in theaters. We all like to forget 2020.

As I'm fact checking myself, I see they made a Doctor Dolittle reboot with Robert Downey Jr for $175 Million and it was a huge flop well before COVID came around. Serves them right for white washing.

The trump recession has already started.
