First transgender Marvel superhero coming 'very soon'

Oh, I am not conservative at all...I just lump the alt-right and SJWs into the same group of extremists that I don't care for.

So you lump together the alt-right, who think minorities are inferior and have inspired at least two synagogue shootings, with people you think are too heavy-handed in their social messaging?

There's a lot I disagree with in your posts and we can argue all day about what should be included in films, but this is beyond idiotic in my view.

Yes I do.

Don't confuse the messaging with intent and delivery.

The Alt-right is clearly more inflammatory than SJWs are but I lump both groups together as people who are intractable in their beliefs therefore they don't need to be part of my life. Intolerance on both sides runs deep and inflexibility to see any other perspective other than the one they adopt is what I can't stand. I am not addressing the morality of either message because the delivery method of both annoy me.

To me, intractable people are insufferable and as soon as a person can't see the hypocrisy in what they are doing, I just zone out on the message. People like this remind me of my 3 year old that gets fixated on only one toy and perseverate over it except grown adults should know better. Life is too short to go through forcing your agenda on everyone else because ultimately, if forcing the actions of others is what makes you happy, you are not a complete person and you should turn a bit more introspective.

So when's the right time to unforcefully introduce a trans/gay/disabled superhero?

Uhm..... Maybe we wait and see on this it's another stepp ( even if its comercial)

Oh dear, it looks like you have an incurable case of 'bothsidesism'. In the current environment that is the equivalent of putting your head in the sand and refusing to make any judgements about which side presents the greater dangers. You have a theory for how you look at the world (inflexible thinking is bad), but you refuse to apply common sense to it (what matters is the potential impacts).

I agree that it's good to have discussions like this rather than the usual endless round of porn-posting and trivial comments. It's also good that you've made an effort to engage and explain your thinking, unlike some others who fired off shots and then scampered at the first whiff of return fire. However, these discussions always get to a point where they just go round in the same circle, and I think we're getting to that point.

To be clear, I'm not a particular fan of this movie genre, so most of your references are lost on me. To me it's a prime example of where the movie business has gone wrong - with the focus on technology-driven spectacle at the expense of depth and the endless mining of successful franchises.

It will be obnoxious and most of us know it.

Hollywood needs to get away from all the "woke" BS.

It is like they have a list they need to tick off (one lesbian dwarf - check, one hispanic biesexual - check, etc.), and they forget about entertaining the public.

Hollywood needs to focus on stories first and foremost, and leave the social justice warrioring alone.

I agree. Why would we have to know the hero is transgender? It makes no sense. Are they planning on showing the persons cock in the movie? Smh
