Hollywood gives up: Anti-woke white men will determine shows and movies in the future

[2 Up 2 Down]

No because it's good and original.

Bad Boys 4 came out this year and nobody complained. Why? Because it was a movie made with passion. People can spot pandering and tokenism and they don't like it.

Bad Boys is an established movie franchise. To complain about Bad Boys 4 being woke would be asinine

 

[Silver Surfer]

Alien Romulus did numbers

 

[Jaguar93]

The usual suspects were complaining about Alien Romulus. Just like they were complaining about Prey lol.

 

[NZA]

there has got to be some healthy middle ground. the writing today is absolute trash for a lot of projects, but we dont need to completely give in to bigots. we just need a more sophisticated notion of representation than the hamfisted fan-fic ass shyt that we have been getting for the past decade.

 

[Genos]

If Avatar the last Airbender came out today these people would lose their minds and say it's indoctrinating little girls to believe they can be stronger than grown men

 

[Devilinurear]

Nothing wrong with non white characters but in certain instances where your core audience is white then it could be off putting to the white male demographic.

So we can't get offended by all white movies and shows but they can by ours.

Crackers man

Maybe they'll stop shoehorning the gay shyt into everything

Yea you'll get more shoehorn white daddy stories for your type

 

[Devilinurear]

Yeah you like black men kissing on screen....noticed you didn't comment in the original post

Because your defecting.

 

[Mowgli]

Yea you'll get more shoehorn white daddy stories for your type

Gay daddy isn't much different

 

[MrLogic]

What does that have to do with us ?

only cacs live through comics and movies

The intersectionality b.s. is about to end. Maybe this will motivate us to work together and create our own shyt.

Intersectionality is a description of how the world works, it's not something people "do". Whatever you're complaining about, it's not intersectionality.

Oh no, no more 95 pound women beating up 350 pound men with a quick swiftness and thudding with every strike

how insecure as a man are you that fictional i.e. make believe shyt bugs you that much.

You probably had no issue with a 62 year old Liam Neeson whooping everyone's ass in the taken series

Or Steven Segal and his bullshyt "Akido" martial arts

or every old ass movie where mfers have six shooters but fire their gun 8 times

A skinny blond white woman took out 88 Japanese assassins in a movie and no one said a damn thing.

If Aliens came out today the usual suspects would 100% be outraged

Remember when 80yo Clint Eastwood single-handedly punked all the Black AND Hmong gangs in his neighborhood, including full-on fist fights?

When a 150lb Brad Pitt could take any beating from any fighter twice his size and then knock him out with one punch?

John Wick has killed 439 professional killers without losing his life.

The entire Fast and the Furious cast gains two additional superpowers in each sequel.

The Marvel franchise has not staged a single realistic fight scene from Day One, EVERY encounter is determined entirely by plot armor.



But have a woman involved? THAT is when we need our action movie realism to finally kick in.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Good, maybe we'll get more actual black comic book characters and less black actors waisted on race swapped white characters

Why would bytching by racist incels magically lead to more Black comic book characters?

Carol Danvers and Ms. Marvel have been around since the 1960s and yet that movie was a bulls-eye target for their agenda.

The Acolyte was all completely original characters and yet they were still attacked fervently by the anti-woke mob.

They don't give a shyt about "race swapping", they just don't want to see black or female leads.

Historically, Hollywood made a point to have white America's european phenotype at the fore front of all forms of fiction to the point where it appears "natural" for them to be Jedi, Kryptonians, wizards, demigods, Disney princesses and all sorts of sci-fi and fantasy characters.

...while limiting black America's west african phenotype to just the American experience (i.e. hood movies, slave/civil rights movies, and however you categorize those Waiting to Exhale / Tyler Perry joints.) to the point where seeing a "black" person outside of those parameters seems "unnatural", "forced", and "woke".

Producing/Controlling your own media is important (for those fortunate enough to be able to) but so is leveraging your voice and buying power as consumers. In your YT comments, rotten tomato reviews, social media, etc., be very specific with what you want and that you're only going to pay for that.

This somewhat reminds me of a certain segment of wrestling fans in an uproar over rap being used for show and PPV intros over rock. It’s 2024, shyt has changed, and whites don’t have the juice like they always made it seem like they had anymore.

What a first world problem, how the hell are you an adult getting mad at fiction?

I want to see Black TV shows and movies that aren't superficial, written by cacs, and/or not afraid to be original

Otherwise, I wouldn't have a racist greaseball as my pfp
