I love it when people make childish insults at people when they disagree with their viewpoints.Shows them up for what they are 😅
If seeing gays/POC in film is enough to upset you, then you should probably just give up on movies altogether.
I fail to see you doing any differently.
When did I say seeing gays and POC in a film was upsetting? Please show me the exact quote.
Diversity and inclusion is not a bad thing.The thing is there’s been diversity and inclusion in film for many decades.The woke media like to change history when they say that Black Panther for example,was the first Marvel movie to have a black lead.It wasn’t.Blade beat it by about 20 years and that film was marketed as a kick ass action movie with a charismatic lead.Not “ Oh look he’s black! How progressive! “
The likes of Brie Larson think she’s the first female superhero to get her own movie.She’s not Wonder Woman and Supergirl got there before her.And there have been many great movies and tv shows in the past to feature strong women.
The pathetic fools who call themselves journalists either are plain stupid or just want to show how woke they are by making ridiculous claims like the ones above.
By the way, Ian Mckellan is one of my favourite actors.He’s gay.Aliens is one of my favourite movies and it has a kick ass female lead.Blade is one of my favourite Marvel movies and Wesley Snipes is black.
Got a quote for that? Or is it just made up?
I've always thought it's wrong that Spidey's costume has a high neck when he takes his mask off- surely you'd want a really open neck so the cossie doesn't show under every outfit you wear? :D
Have no idea why these movies have such appeal. It’s baffling. There should be a warning attached to the film that extreme campiness may cause one’s brain to shut down.
People like campiness.
Guess I fall into the latter. If I want to watch a comedy, I’ll watch one. But if I turn on a Bond movie, for example, I don’t want “funny or foolishness.” To me, the camp is for kids. For instance, the 1960s Batman with West. When I was about 6 or 7 etc that was great. Now, it’s just plain goofy. Now the Nolan Batman series, that is for adults. Humor can easily ruin a good film.
Some of them, definitely. Yes. But really, I’m just a fan of Dalton and of course mainly Craig’s. I’ve seen them all, but the Moore films are so over the top, good grief. I’d label them as comedies. LALD, Moonraker, etc. Almost slapstick comedies. Why on earth they went in that direction I’ll never know.
Exactly.
As a kid I enjoyed the show as a straight up adventure. Once I revisited as an adult I could finally see just how utterly hilarious and clever the writers were with the format of the show. That’s why it still resonates 60 years later, it’s a truly enjoyable piece of entertainment.
Yeah. I see your point. Kind of like if you’re a kid watching Classic Trek. When you’re a kid, you like the spaceships, phasers, fights etc. But when you get older, the morality plays within the episodes resonate in a different way. I loved the 60s Batman show growing up. But as makeshift python said, a lot of people like camp.
Middle East: “ You have to censor the gay scenes or we won’t show it “
Marvel: “ No! We believe in diversity and representation! “
Middle East: “ Ok we won’t show the film “
( Eternals opens to disappointing box office )
Marvel: “ We agree to edit the film so you can show it in your cinemas “
Middle East : “ What about your values? “
Marvel : “ We care more about money “
Made up, then.
Damn, almost like they're a business or something... Who'da thunk?
I felt the same when I watched the first trailer I don't like the way its been directed.
Introducing villains from other Spider-Man movies really doesn’t allow for any stakes for Holland’s Spidey. He doesn’t know who they are or what they’re capable of, they don’t know who he is and don’t have any history with him, so that idea just falls flat.
The trailer does suggest this with Peter and his friends snickering at Doc Ock's name and Ock saying "You're not Peter Parker." It does seem like it's going to be all for the sake of nostalgia. Which will still be interesting surely, but especially with the inclusion of Doctor Strange (this Peter Parker sure does love his goateed mentors, doesn't he?), you have to wonder how much this will really be Holland's movie.
