Why?

It doesn't matter if the team is unbalanced. You have a guy that can defeat the nine realms virtually on his own on the same team as Hawkeye.

What matters is the writing.

The only way I see this working is if she attains the infinity stones.

Meh. I'll wait and see. Feige has handled all the kind of crap Brie likes to spout pretty damn well. Much better than the actual situation in Marvel's comics today.

From her twitter
If the movie ends up sucking we know who will be blamed. It won't be the movie, just the white males giving it bad reviews.

She did blame white dudes for A Wrinkle in Time sucking. Never mind that it was the poor decision casting Oprah in the damn movie. The rest of the case was pretty well done, but Oprah's over bearing, and incredibly horrid, acting in the movie killed it.

Money talks and bullshit walks Brie.

If the movie sucks it's the production, because the general public flocked to Wonder Woman in droves.

This is the type of shit that makes me from 100% sure I will see it at the movies to "if I am bored I might go see it". Same effect Star Wars had.

The same white males that had Wonder Woman at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes....

Guys RDJ and Chris Evans are the biggest SJW there are, remember the "Anti-Trump" videos RDJ took part in before the 2016 election?

What it comes down to are the writers, vision and direction - and Marvel has given us no reason to doubt their ability in that capacity.

This is what it boils down to.

Marvel gets a lot of leeway from me as they have done such an excellent job. However, if they stir up a hornets nest by pushing SJW crap, that is on them. It just isn't a good business decision in today's political atmoshpere to rant about politics regarding a movie.

If you make a good movie and keep your mouth shut you will be fine.

To some politics is the end all be all when it comes to their entertainment. It doesn't bother me one way or the other, but I get what you're saying.

At this point the MCU is much better and much more entertaining than Marvel comics.

No one complained about diversity or female characters when Storm and Gean Grey were the leaders of the team and huge story arcs revolved around them. They were great characters.

You can't have garbage characters with garbage writing and piss poor art and expect people to enjoy it. No matter the sex or race of that character.

And at this point the MCU has earned my trust and I have every reason to think they will make it work until they prove me wrong.

It's mostly geeky white males that read comics. Not only, but mostly.

When you look at culture it's usually your star trek nerds and your comix nerds and your D&D nerds that were the most understanding and least racist or sexist. These were mostly people who were social outcasts themselves. Nerds. Dorks. Geeks that didn't get the girl/guy. People who weren't athletic or had horrible acne.

Gaming and sports culture is completely different than comic book culture. To say comics fans are racist and sexist and bigoted shows you've never been in a comix shop. EVER...
[Reply]

Yeah, no. Women comprise 40% of comic readership.

The idea that it’s totally dominated by white males is just your intuition speaking, not reality.

Inclusion is the future. That means, as a white male, more and more stories will not be pitched specifically to stroke your specific fantasies. But that doesn’t mean the stories aren’t still outstanding.
