Supergirl looks pretty good to me...

so you have no explanation why racist cast a blonde white woman when they should have a person of color,,

might be because youre a racist too,,
You're just a troll, asshat. Simple movie thread about an upcoming movie. Just move on. You dont have money for movies anyway.
 
The point is movie studios should produce entertainment and not political propaganda films. We are so sensitized to this as citizens a breakdown through political influence of any movie is possible one way or the other. A strong macho white lead character may have endless woke characters behind him as an example.
"macho"? Is this 1972? How old are you?

I think the point is that your skin is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo thin that a gay character, a black character, a latino character, or a woman makes you feel small. You can only feel good if you think somehow you are connected to people better than you and the only thing you have in common with some of your betters is skin color. I am a c-suite executive pulling in 7 figures a year who has white skin. My success does not connect me to your ass. Why cant you just be happy with who you are, who you really are, and watch movies that have people like you want them to look and some with people who dont? This is a you problem, not a movie problem.

The movie, the Martian is a perfect example. Although the lead character is on the lower end of it. Maverick is another.
 
Perfect example of what?
Of woke characters even with white leads with levels of machismo. The brooding African American scientist who figures out how to send supplies and catch the white character leaving mars is a sight to behold. In the 1960's, a white man sitting at a console which is one of many smoking a cigarette would have turned to the mission director and said the same thing quickly how to keep the mission going. The character of the movie sitting next to the computers in such intellectual pain and the showing the answer to the NAS people was worthy of being on a stage. I care not for your crap. I know who I could depend on in life in dangerous situations. And it did include people of all cultures. It just was not woke.
 
It's gonna bomb.

Due to a combination of weak tracking numbers, highly controversial pre-release marketing, and general superhero fatigue.

A massive self-inflicted wound for the film's PR has been a series of press interviews by lead actress Milly Alcock.

Alienating the Core Audience: In an interview with Variety, Alcock generated heavy online backlash by stating she wanted to "piss off the right kinds of people," specifically singling out conservative or Christian family men on social media.

Marketing Defensiveness: YouTube commentators and cultural critics note that the promotional tour has leaned heavily into combating online fan criticism rather than highlighting the movie's story or merit. This "attacking the fans" approach has left a deeply sour initial impression with casual moviegoers and core comic book readers alike.

Step 1: The Blowback. The lead actor or director says something incredibly combative in a high-profile interview, completely alienating the core audience.

Step 2: The Box Office Ghost Town. The movie opens to empty theaters, matching the exact dismal tracking numbers the internet predicted months in advance.

Step 3: The Blame Game. Instead of admitting the writing was bad or the marketing was toxic, the studio executives blame "toxic fandom," the weather, or a bad weekend on the calendar.

Step 4: (Not Profit) Repeat. They learn absolutely nothing and greenlight the next $200 million disaster with the exact same formula.
 
Looks like crap to me.
 
Im sure this site is too far gone to appreciate a movie with a female lead but this looks very Guardians of the Galaxy vibe, which makes sense from James Gunn. I feel like this can be as good as last years superman which really grew on me. My first watch I was overwhelmed at the frenetic pace and the starting in the middle of the action but I ended up having it on repeat all summer in the house.


Most of us on the right have no problem at all with a movie having a female lead. So, whatever you’re babbling about is not related to reality.

Also, we’ve gotten used to movies coming out of Hollywood which makes it a point to virtue signal from the leftarded perspective. So, that doesn’t matter.

As a matter of fact, I thought the star was pretty cute when I first saw her on the GoT sequel (prequel, actually). I’ve seen her on another show, too. She is not maybe classically pretty, but o do think she is attractive.

I’ll wait and see if the movie sucks or not.

A reasonable take.

You haven’t even seen the movie to claim bad writing lol. Your whole life is seen through the lens of grievances. I am sorry you have no joy in life and suffer so.

If the movie is good, I’ll enjoy it. If it’s poorly done, I wont. You old farts crack me up. I hope you enjoy your Bob Hope movie.

On first glance I thought how good that at least the super genius is not gay, but it appears you were referring to the movie not the girl.

I've enjoyed many a movie with a female lead, because they were a good actress in a well-written story, but this movie looks like just more typical shit put out by the now-decaying Hollywood. The formula now is:
  1. Shitty acting.
  2. Shitty, near non-existent story.
  3. And just cram it full of constant blazing impossible action sequences stuffed with tons of CGI.

That is just such a broad brush man. The Dune series has big production, good acting, and great stories. So did Hail Mary. There are lots of them. For female driven action movies Furiosa was fairly recent. They don’t make many of them. It’s funny you guys freak out when they do.

The last Superman was a fine popcorn fun movie for the summer. This one looks slightly heavier but who knows? Haven’t seen it yet. Not every movie needs to be Schindler’s List to be enjoyable. Horror movies are killing it at box offices these days and that is just a fun distraction, not a deep movie.
 
This thread is vastly improved if we can see the subject matter:

I don’t give a crap about Milly’s politics or her PR commentary about anything related to her perception of the future audience. Actors and Actresses can have any political philosophy they want. They are universally irrelevant to me.
