That really sucks because I had a lot of hope for it. It was gonna be like three awesome movies in a row and how often is a sequal and threequal just as good?
there is a chance the movie itself will turn out fine
but i fear even if it is decent, it will get boycotted by all sides
companies are too stupid to realize that playing the political game just means you put yourself in the crosshairs of both sides.
You become a pawn to be used
That is true
and both sides will use that pawn until it is dried up
The MCU is going to tank soon anyway with the start of Phase 4 if they're going to be going all in on the heroes that are tanking the conics side of things.

comics*
because they lost all sense of reality
"marvel is a life style brand"
If you thought that the "outrage" at Ghostbusters or Oceans 8 was bad, you probably can't imagine what Captain Marvel or Ms. Marvel is going to be like.
I'm grasping for the sliver of hope that Captain Marvel will be an actual film and not an SJW shill
Same
they stand a very small chance of making some of these characters succeed, If they find a competent writer. There are lots of normies watching the movies who don't know of the bs from the comics side
although i have little hope for iron heart, who is coming down the pipeline i heard
I just don't know how they're going to gloss over that girl's origin and call to heroism without completely retconning it.
Disney has a habit of retcon
True
Most of the Milennial generation grew up on completely reworked imaginings of various fairy tales by the company.
I like Disney's 2D animated movies
You know why these failed characters are coming over? Someone high up has looked at recent trends, didn't say "oh, these comics must be shit, let's fix this." They said "oh, no one reads comics anymore, movies are were they are now"
And they think the loudest autistics are the actual readers.
It's the same bs over and over and over again.
Tip: They don't read comics. They just complain and "critique" them.
To be fair, they had massive turnover on the Black Panther movie without it transitioning back into comics. They might think that the identity crap might actually fly there
Political activist hate a medium, they ree on Twitter, out of touch business men go "OMG, everyone is gonna boycott us" and so they hire some of those political activist to "fix" the problem, and that is exactly what they do.... But since the medium is the problem, that means they kill it
The squeaky wheel gets the grease, as the saying goes
@N.Rondain Why would anyone be triggered over Captain Marvel?
Captain marvel looks great
Similar to the talk above about Ironheart, the initial concerns are mostly comics based speculation grounded in how the characters are currently being handled.
If the movies are good, then great. No harm.
Well, they're adapting the original character instead of the Pakistani rip-off
Brie Larson is a great actress
But the directors haven't made any good movies so far...
and having 7 writers isn't a good sign
Yeah, that's the captain marvel movie they're making. I'm reserving judgement until I see a trailer.
There's been talk about making a Kamala movie or episodic series as well.
Ack, seven writers?
A bunch of the writers are producers...
