Casting Brie Larson as Capt Marvel

Upvoted.

Probably because most body builders or pole dancers can't act. Of course considering that the 250 million dollars cost movie utterly tanked at the box office perhaps she can't act either if handed a garbage script; heavy on WOKE ideology, and flyweight on plot and characterization. Just guessing, though.

Thats alot of words to say you cant handle movie featuring girl power. Maybe it wasnt "for you" and geared more for young women and girls and shooting for a broader demographic that doesn't normally watch super hero movies. Did you even watch it?

That's a lot of money to have wasted to make a movie featuring girl power that even girls didn't want to watch.

I don't believe anybody, not even girls, wanted to watch it is the point of the meme and the reason for the box office failure.

Who owns the franchise? Ah...Disney.

Yep.

🤭

That's the point. Disney slapped her with a restraining order this time around but the damage was done. Thats why Brie bitched about losing her enthusiasm for working at marvel.

Then explain why this 250 million dollars production is tanking. Fifty percent of the human population is female, and so if they won't even financially support and patronize the WOKE stuff endlessly offered to them . . . then perhaps Disney really is offering up . . . garbage on the whole.

Or perhaps superhero 'this and that' remains essentially teen boy stuff and the fantasies of early adulthood males wanting harmless escapism. In which case you gotta make stuff that inherently attracts the knuckles dragger crowd . . . youngish males; which -- gasp! -- is not ideologically reeking leftist WOKEism . . . on the whole.

That's it in a nutshell. I collected comics for 50 years. I saw maybe a dozen females in comics shops my whole life. I used to take my tall, busty redheaded girlfriend into the shop in Huntington and the fan bois responded like she was an alien from another planet.
When you alienate half the human race, there goes your audience for comics.
That's why Marvel and DC are tanking now. Lowest comics sales in history. They embraced Wokesterism and drove away their customer base like Bud Light did.

Aye . . . in my youth and early twenties I read superhero comics because they let me pretend to be someone NOT struggling in life. One could change everything with a powerful fist and willpower or by flipping through the air on the end of a strand of webbing.

The writers of the day outright pandered to their audience . . . young males desiring escapism. Today's Disney? They haven't got a clue . . . and nor do they really care; and it shows.

From what I hear the actresses that played Ms Marvel and Monica(I forget her hero name) were actually good. It's mainly Brie that stinks up the movies she's in. Also-

Aye . . . but sinking 250 million dollars into a box office fizzle means that there is no excuse anywhere for miscalculations in casting or plotting or characterization. Hell . . . for a fifth of that financial investment the end product should be perfect.

Red Sonja was great. There's hundreds if not thousands of fun or great movies with strong female leads. An anorexix 85 pound man hater isn't in any of em.

Comically and simultaneously . . . sadly true.

Scary ain't it?

In the comic books of my distant youth? You betcha!

Watching women wrassle on WWE and AEW I'd say it's more an ability than a power. But the poor camera guys have to work their asses off cutting away.

I don't like girls who are stronger than me, so it's not the worst thing that could've happened. You ever hear how the media claims guys are "horny" for Lady Dimitrescu? What guys? Not me. 100% propaganda to set fake body standards. Asshole corporations.
