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

I wouldn't say you're hating. It doesn't look good. Nothing in the trailers really wow'ed me and the preproduction shots all looked like trash.

More importantly, you're building this supposedly more powerful character's story arc as an afterthought to everything up to this point. We have seen other people's power levels and bringing her in out of nowhere to be this superior character is fukkin stupid.

I actually did want a Captain Marvel movie, but not like this. She's actually a great character who probably could have been done properly on Netflix. Didn't like the choice of casting either. Story seems boring in comparison to what they could have done.

But we will see what happens. I guess her and Warlock will come save all these nikkas :rudy:

It's hard to trust Marvel to balance this shift to obscure characters with the ones we know their capabilities already, but Marvel has gotten it right so far. I'm going to trust the process and hope it doesn't suck :yeshrug:

Love
highly doubt men would be this upset if Storm was getting her own film
If they were making it and black women were making a big deal about it I guarantee there'd be a similar post about it on here.

The third white woman to headline a superhero movie in 2 years if you count the Wasp, meanwhile Blade and Black Panther were nearly 20 years apart. :mjpls: also the only movies with black female leads, that aren't wearing green makeup to cover their complexions.

tell them we're saving our money for black girls.

also if you count starwars as a superhero movie, this is like the 5th white woman to headline one of these movies in the past 4 years. Seems to me like white woman are doing just fine.


I know Catwoman was trash and not generally seen as a "superhero" but:manny:

Maybe. If the movie is a failure or success it doesn't really have a bearing on your life so I wouldn't get too worked up about it.

If they'd have made the Ms. Marvel movie instead, they wouldn't have to worry about this.
An Arab, Muslim superhero with interesting villains and backstory.
But they had to make another bland White woman hero movie instead.
Their loss :yeshrug:

they wasnt about to risk misrepresenting Islam or offending muslims. They dont want those problems.
