Does it make me a dikk for hoping that Captain Marvel bombs at the box office?

#CaptainMarvelChallenge: Frederick Joseph is raising money to send girls to see film - CNN

Last year, his #BlackPantherChallenge raised enough money to send 73,000 children of color to see "Black Panther."

This year, his #CaptainMarvelChallenge hopes to do the same for girls with Marvel Studios' first female-led film, "Captain Marvel."
But Frederick Joseph said he isn't sure the campaign to help young girls will receive as much support as the one for black boys did.
"I was hoping this would receive more traction than the last challenge," the New York marketer told CNN.

Even an endorsement from the movie's star, Brie Larson, didn't seem to move the needle on the challenge's GoFundMe page.
"We did see some more donations from her support, but not as many as we would have hoped for," Joseph said. "I think there's a larger conversation to be had around how much support women receive and lack thereof."

Funny thing, the Wonder Woman movie didn't need to do any fund raising to get more girls to see the movie.

Why do you want it to bomb, breh?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

yes but it won't unless it's just Catwoman levels terrible which I doubt Disney could ever do

What a fukking idiot, obviously black panther raised more money it was something we never seen before, captain marvel is just another white person

I cant wait for the hundreds of articles attacking men cause it "only" does 700 Million worldwide

If you're like me and you just been hating Carol Danvers your whole life, nah.

 

[Doobie Doo]

I hae no desire to see Captain Marvel other than the fact that it is a continuation of the Marvel universe so you watch it to understand the bigger plot Only thing I knew about her was Rogue got her powers from her

 

[Lewis Black]

Nah that’s some hating ass shyt lol


I’m gonna watch it and I hope it does well

 

[Rell84shots]

Nope, The fact that they keep trying to link white women films to Black Panther is incredibly insulting.

Y'all see that black boys get more support than little girls and they pretending like it was only for black boys instead of black children? These people ain't slick all these allies are like Gina Rodrigues.

Captain Marvel does nothing for me as far as female heroines go.

 

[jdubnyce]

This looks like Thor 2 status to me
I'll just wait until the post credit scenes leak as I'm sure they'll tie into Endgame

People need to understand that Dave Chappelle made a VERY profound statement in his last Netflix special.

“White women. You were in on the heist you just didn’t like your cut!”

White women aren’t some innocent put upon damsels in distress. They are willing culprits in spreading white supremacy. They do not need any type of specialized treatment because they aren’t victims.

Captain Marvel is a WHITE superhero. We’ve seen all number and manor of WHITE female superheroes the world over. There ain’t nothing special about Captain fukking Marvel

 

[intruder]

It's like a white boys saying they dont see the big deal with Black Panther. Some brehs just hate women and they dont know it
Let alone KNOW WHY
THe breh feels like the women getting their HAPPY on is somehow a threat to his own happiness and needs it to stop.
We seen this before, right?

Marvel is two years too late. Wonder Woman already came through and crushed the buildings.

If they had done a female-led superhero movie before that, there'd be more fanfare. But it took them eleven fukking years?
