  1. That wasn't Hollywood, Marvel made that change, and LOL at pointing to 1 role as proof that whitewashing exists vs the multitude of roles where black/asian/hispanic/etc washing has happened. SMH
  2. I've read his interviews. He's a culture vulture with no respect for the music he makes millions off. Jeff Weiss wrote an amazing piece on how vapid he is.
  3. Do you have any more wrong takes on this movie you'd like to share? This was excellent. Arguably the best Spiderman movie ever.
  4. Then why are you even in this thread? And really, it's hilariously stupid for a dude who collects comic books encapsulated to comment negatively on anyone collecting video games encapsulated.
  5. This was a far more enjoyable movie than some reviews made it out to be, at least for me. Definitely picking this up on DVD. Loved it.
  6. So, not standard Marvel fare then? More like standard DC fare.
  7. so you're annoyed because of proper representation? really? smh
  8. I haven't seen Infinity War yet, but this is easily the best Marvel movie yet. The amount of detail in this movie alone makes it better. can only hope for a dora milaje movie.
  9. Iron Fist is completely unwatchable. by ffffaaaaaarrrrrrr the worst marvel netflix show. by far. and by far, i mean galaxy distance.
  10. Respect to Ed for doing this. blackwashing/etc does not exist, but whitewashing absolutely does and is very damaging. now, let's see who they replace him with...
  11. at "as Ragnarok is not a familiar term in Japan..." it's not a familiar term ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
  12. The name originates from a SNCC-run voting campaign in Lowndes county, Alabama, in which an organization known as the Lowndes County Freedom Organization (LFCO) attempted to establish themselves as an independent political party to rival the all-white Dem ocrat party . Many people in the county were illiterate, so both parties had to come up with mascots to differentiate themselves. The Dems picked a white rooster, and the LFCO picked a black panther, which according to LFCO chairman John Hulett, "is an animal that when pressured moves back until it is cornered, then it comes out fighting for life and death. We felt we had been pushed back long enough and that it was time for Negroes to come out and take over." The imagery of the Black Panther became so powerful that Stokely Carmichael began to promote it as a symbol for the entire Black Power movement across America, but it wasn't until a pamphlet about voter registration in Alabama reached a young Huey Newton at the UC Berkeley campus that the name began to describe what we know today as the Black Panthers. Basically, he saw the logo, was impressed and inspired by what it stood for and what had been accomplished under its banner, and essentially adopted it for his and Bobby Seale's new group in Oakland.
  13. or he broke into their house and stole the shirt.
  14. TNG by a mile for me. after that Enterprise was my second favorite, but it did have the worst opening song.
  15. I thought her review of the movie was suuuuper boring. And bad. She mentions Saw only being in one scene, but he was in two. And his inclusion explains why Jyn was so experienced as a soldier. I gave up just after that, as her review was too bad to continue.
  16. Finally saw rouge one today. Is that the makeup movie where they steal the plans for a new version of blush?
  17. Excellent movie. Liked this more than TFA.
  18. how is it the best SW movie ever if you only think it was a 7/10? ANH and ESB are easily 8/10 or 9/10 movies.
