Disney: we want women’s voices!
*Gina Carano speaks up*
Disney: silence woman!
Disney : come out women !
Scarlett johanson enters
Disney : eh any other women
Emma Fuhrmann enters
Disney : get out
They dont want women's voices, they want women's _money_ ! Lol
They only want women's voices that go along with the narrative
This comment needs to be posted on every youtube video lol
That whole thing still simmers my blood a bit.
I'm a black African man, born and raised in Africa yet the introduction of Black Panther did not change anyone's favourite heroes. Even the younger generation still love Superman, Batman, Captain America and Spiderman.
It's not about how our heroes superficially look. It's about their values and the struggles they go through.
I remember as a teenager when Blade came out with Wesley Snipes. It was a badass movie, and I wanted to be a hybrid like him killing vampires as he did. LOL I never once thought of his skin color. To this day, that's still one of my favorite super hero movies.
@@JustinStrife Same here, always loved Snipes and never considered he was black until the recent focus on race.
It's not just Heroes either, Kingpin in the 2003 Daredevil was played by Michael Clarke Duncan was out of necessity, which later turned into the biggest if not the only reason to watch the film.
Totally agree. But Chadwick Boseman's death was a sad loss, and he at least played an excellent Black Panther, even if the movie itself was meh for me. But Wakanda Forever, IMO, is insulting to both his memory and black people everywhere. Many who defend these movies don't see how condescending they are to people in general and black people in particular. And Wakanda may f-pii-k off with their isolationism and not giving two farts for Africa's problems.
@@JustinStrife Blade was fabulous and ground breaking! And Snipes was an absolute legend in that movie!
Disney/Marvel feminism boils down to the "girls rule, boys drool" schoolyard chants that we all should have grown out of by now.
To be fair, I do drool an alarming amount when I sleep… and don’t.
That's sexist girls can also drool the same amount as boys. Women empowerment 💪
That saying was always stupid anyway no matter who says it at any age because it makes no sense, everyone drools and has drooled since babyhood even animals drool if anyone has seen dogs before. So literally aren't they insulting themselves by saying they drool too? XD It's not just boys who do it so again this saying has always been stupidly contradictory and ironic.
But they dont even know what a woman is, so how can they... Oh! It's because they know exactly whqt women are and that they're different then men, but can't say it because they'll get cancelled be pretend women
Well its worse than that lol with girls wanting to be included in the "lost boyz" now they drool equally to boys lmao so idk
"She wants to be a mom, but she isn't. So she tries to steal someone else's kids."

Tbh, that could work if it was done well and they treated the character with dignity and respect that they deserved

Honestly, in that moment i was disappointed that his headbutt did nothing. Would have loved like a bloody nose or something but then when he grabbed that powerstone and fucking Purple Falcon.. PUNCHED her off screen it made me smile. The last modicum of storytelling survived, allowing Tony Stark, a simple man, to save the day.
Zoe Saldana was very precise in her wording. "These stories need to be told about women." Which is what Hollywood is all about. Taking stories and making them about women.
It's too bad because I think she's an absolute smokeshow and seems like an actually nice person, but she's become such a Kool-Aid distributor for this crap.
@@newalchemy9742 I agree. She seems really nice but yeah, she does.
Which is funny given Hollywood’s long history of producers and directors harassing actresses.
They can't even define what a woman is
"Hollywood is all about talking about themselves making it about women".
It's a disgrace that not a single women ever appeared in movies, comics or videogames before the stunning and brave pioneers at modern Marvel/Disney fixed the patriarchy.
I understand the sarcasm, but I like to bring up when men used to play as woman in plays back in the olden days because they weren’t allowed to leave home or have jobs. I’m not making an argument just a funny thought. Of course now woman do have rights and also aren’t straight up blocked from most things.
@@mcrayden8599 that was a few centuries ago! People may as well complain about being invaded and enslaved by Egyptians, Mongolians and Vikings! Modern day american women are arguably the most privileged large demographic that's ever existed- but it's still fashionable to be a victim.

I would rather watch that clip on loop for 4 hours than this stupid MPower show. And I'm pretty sure my wife would as well.

Problem is, they only want those women’s voices and points of view as long as they are exactly the same! Any woman who disagrees with their ideology gets chucked unceremoniously!
Exactly. That's why no sane person supports modern "feminism." Any woman that actually thinks for themselves and doesn't automatically kiss all other women's asses and shit on men is "suffering from internalized misogyny" according to them. You can't "slut shame," but shaming people for being "prudes" is perfectly acceptable.

Seeing the children in the Captain Marvel costume... I do a massive haunted house from my home as a home haunter, with about 80 to 100 kids coming to my door. I've been doing Halloween for about 13 years.
Never have I seen a girl dressed as any of these characters. Ever. Girls from 3 to 16, 17. I NEVER see girls dressed as Captain Marvel or Scarlet Witch. I see boys as Hulk, Spider-Man, Ironman and Cap, but never girls. I see the occasional Harley Quinn, but its rare and usually older girls. What I do see is little girls as princess, cheer leaders, vampires, clowns, cats, a ton of Disney princess! So to even post that is clear hubris. And, well, it's a lie.
I feel sorry for them.
Nice, Halloween is my favorite holiday! I've always wanted to do a haunt but I don't own a house yet.
It's like the media push here in the U.K. for women's football.....girls and women for the vast majority aren't in the least bit interested in watching it.....you can't force this stuff into being
And I bet the Disney princesses stop at Elsa and Anna with no one acknowledging Moana or Tiana.
"Ms Marvel literally had her superpowers delivered by mail" 😂😂😂
Oof.
If I remember correctly THE WASP was the Avenger's leader when Monica Rambeau debuted.
And Storm was the leader of the X-Men.
And no one complained. Because it was not a selfish political statement.
Because they were well written characters
This comment just makes me miss X-Men Evolution and Avengers Earths mightiest Heroes where these characters were done justice
Finally someone addresses that. And all of them were cool (specially Storm). And don't forget Vindicator (from Alpha Flight). So pretty much every superhero group has been commanded by a woman before. In short... yes, you remember correctly.
Cheers!
Captain Britain’s Meggan: so aware of the emotional and actual environment she adapted to it in order to survive until she grew old enough to take control for herself.
Underrated character.
Mohawk era Storm is still my favorite version of her.
"People who look like me can be superheroes too." - No you can't, because they're fictional.
Poor argument.
That reminds me of back in 2016 when they came out with "women can be Ghostbusters too". I remember thinking: "these morons do _know_ that a Ghostbuster is not a _real_ career, right?" They're not like a firefighter or an astronaut: you are not "breaking the glass ceiling" by stealing the plot/concept of a movie that a couple of men came up with three decades ago.
@@graemevaughey7432 Man, they must _hate_ 40k's Space Marines (which can _actually_ only be dudes)
But that doesn't make the statement false, since she never claimed that SHE could be one; just that they could LOOK LIKE the person making that observation. Which is true.
The real question is whether it MATTERS that a superhero "looks like me." I submit that it should not. It is the character's principles and ideals which make them heroic, not their appearance. Haven't Homelander, Omni-Man, and all the other "Superman . . . but baaaaaaad" characters illustrated that enough yet?
Personally, I always knew superheroes could look like me, even in the early seventies. I created plenty who did, and plenty who didn't. But what was always important to me is what and who they fought for. The "how they look" stuff was only important if it contributed to their value system (which it sometimes did). But I never sought to create "[ADJECTIVE] characters," and I never looked at myself as a "[ADJECTIVE] writer." I am a writer who happens to be [MULTIPLE ADJECTIVES], and I have created some characters who it so happens are [ADJECTIVES IN A GRAB BAG].

Yeah, gen z is all about TikTok and social media. The most they'd do is have a film on in the background while scrolling.
I'm already nostalgic for the old days of youtube where the biggest creators where either gamers or people bullying children for views
Which is why it’s imperative you plop their impetuous rears down and make sure they watch the classics.
@@GeraltofRivia22 Counter: I am Gen Z and I am not like that. Yes, I don't really care for cinema, or tv shows in general, but I couldn't give two shits, much less even one for Til Tok and social media in general. Except CZcams, because apparently that's considered social media.
@@GeraltofRivia22 Technically Gen z, but older. Also these who do that are dumb mind numbed by social media. I can watch a movie/TV show without looking at my phone but those who can't have a problem sadly. Also watching older movies is so good, they're actually great!
Anyone remember Totally Spies?Cartoon Network series about three Beverly Hills teenage girls who moonlighted as secret agents. They loved shopping, makeup, and talking/arguing about boys they had crushes on, but were also just plain badass action heroes when the situation called for it. Extremely empowering without sacrificing femininity, and the themes were generally universally approachable. I'm a dude and my brother and I loved that show growing up.
I, a male, loved totally spies as a kid 😂
That show was borderline r34 mate, i mean it made me the man i am today but for sure better female characters there
Totally spies was the shit. Funny but adventurous and lots of creativity. But this empowering shit needs to go, same with sexism or racism and all that. They're all just words that mean nothing now and sort of just as a vague fog of "thing bad" - "thing good" that communicates little. No show should be empowering unless we're dealing with a philosophical or historical masterpiece that like addresses gay culture in some arabian shit hole that raises awareness that they don't have to take being stonned or something for who they are.
It was a JetX before CN. And French.
I hate to admit it but I watched the show a lot.
They're so delusional that they no longer say "we inspire kids to be brave, courageous, strong-willed," but instead say "we show that anyone can be a superhero, or an Elf or Dwarf in Lord of the Rings." No, we are all still human being and bound by what we can be in this world. That's why the role models should inspire positive traits rather than con kids in to thinking they can be fictional characters.
How are women not insulted by this? Imagine for your birthday someone giving you a wrapped box filled with dog food
Women have been spoonfed this propaganda for two generations. They don’t even notice it
Remember to invest in dog food..
my daughter is extremely against criticising this. for most women they act like a hive mind, they think like a collective. despite cultural and religious differences women think like a group, if one gets a win they feel they all earned a win. even if part of them believes the other part is blasphemous, their hive mind still connects them. Their empathy if missused is their downfall.

It's honestly sad that people in the entertainment industry think that everyone wants to see characters who look and act exactly like them. No, we really don't. Characters in movies and comics are idealized versions of what we should be inspired by. Not go, "Hey, I like this character, because they're literally me!"
Characters need to be _relatable_ first and foremost, but this highly paid expert writers think relatability only goes skin-deep.
Don’t you love it that they put Wanda in this “women empowerment” trailer after what she did in MoM? It’s the equivalent of making Sangwoo and Yoon Bum from Killing Stalking the mascots for a pride parade.

Couldn’t help but notice that the three main characters they snuffed in Endgame were played by three of the top 5 most expensive actors in Hollywood in 2019: RDJ was first, SJ was second & Evans was fourth or fifth I think.

Some people unironically believed that Wakanda was real.
They took Saturday morning cartoon characters, comics and strips whose core audience had always been young, pre-teen and teenage boys and twisted and perverted them into mindless drones of insane, laughable but at the same time tragic, new age, neo-marxist propaganda. Instead of fighting for a noble cause like to end hunger in Africa and other 3rd world countries and defend the working rights of ALL people ( not just whamin ) they obsess over ruining what we ( men ) love. That cash flow from Blackrock might be pretty " sweet " but it's not going to last forever. Especially with World War III on the horizon!

You know who I find inspiring? Amelia from Babadook. The woman went through a terrible loss, struggled with an unruly child that she had to raise on her own, struggled to maintain her job and relationships, faced a hellish nightmare that is the Babadook, lost her sanity and gave into her demons, yet she pulled through and overcame her insurmountable trauma and demons in the end, becoming a stronger and more resilient person and mother for it. She could never be rid of the demon, but she’ll definitely make it her bitch.
Marvel hasn’t produced anything that has come close to that level of depth and empowerment, yet they keep patting themselves on the back like they made great heroines rather than bland narcissists who overcame nothing…
If Marvel wrotte it, Amelia would've punched the shit out of the Babadook, and it would've been a metaphor for the patriarchy or something. Also she would be black, and the son adopted, cus a retarded black kid would be impossible in their tiny minds

And I hate seeing redheaded characters have their hair color or other aspects changed). But that isn't the only reason I love Ariel, because I don't relate to any other redheaded princess, only her. I relate to her because we're both redheads who sing, don't belong in the world we live in, and put love first. As for other fictional characters I relate to, I always related more to Steve Urkle than most white female characters. I have nearly always related to male characters more than female characters (and, no, I am not "trans" or "non-binary/gender fluid"). I don't need a character to share my sex or race to see myself in them.

With a line like that your future's not looking too bright. Either that or you're 12 and there's still time for you to grow up before you become another one of those jaded miserable feminists who create shows like this.
Your comment had potential outside of that part. But that's a really worrisome thing to say.
Sad how the company making MPower tried to steal ScarJo's money.
My childhood (90ths) was full of female super heroes. Sailor moon, lady oscar, cutey honey, wedding peach, pretty cure...plus female lead shows like mila, hikari, cats eye and MANY more. I am happy to grew up in germany were we had tons of anime.
Let's make the character more relatable -- Casts Brie. 😂😂
Is that, like, a personal attack, or something?
@atomicdancer Wouldn't necessarily say personal attack, just more so acknowledging the humor resulting from the dissonance of the intent vs execution. Like if the committee said it was a desire to keep jokes inoffensive that motivated them to have Ricky Gervais host, or if the superbowl said we want less silly half time shows, so weird al will host next year.
No, Brie Larson is a very relatable person with a charming personality.

I always picture these arguments being pulled in Korean cinema. "Hey, we need to make our movies look like 'the world we live in today.' So, based on global figures, we are 77.7 million out of 7.5 billion people and therefore only 1.04% of our cast can be ethnic Korean. To better reflect the world we live in today!!!"

Disney is literally filling a sinking ship with dynamite at this point
I don't think you know what "literally" is supposed to mean.
Actually it's more like they used the dynamite to blow a hole in the hull so the seawater would put out an engine fire. Except now the boilers are dead AND the ship is sinking, and Disney is STILL bragging about how luxurious their ship is.
Marvel is so brave for inventing women🙏
Favorite part in Captain Marvel movie was the flashback scene when she was a kid racing a go-kart and a boy yells she's going too fast then she runs into a wall and explodes. Somehow that seems so symbolic of our times.
If you need constant reassurance, a huge public relations campaign at your back, people skittering out of your way to make room whenever you approach, any views that conflict your own violently silenced, a projected ignorance of your weaknesses that leads you to believe that you have none, and an absolute view that cooperation and compromise are burdens that are beneath you... You are not, in any meaningful way, nor will you ever be, empowered.
I am disappointed that She Hulk is not on the trailer. Guess her twerking was too much and they cut it out.
we're not ready for any more tik tok dances.
LOL I never noticed they did in fact put fake male writers in the writers room when She-Hulk broke the wall LOL
They all looked so spineless that I didn't even consider that they weren't in with the rest of the sheep.

Female empowerment where every woman involved answers to Kevin and Bob🤣🤣
I miss old movies where men and women could joke around one another, and this issues were already mostly a thing of the past.
Anyone remember when in the movie Aliens men and women were part of the army and both looked the part? I still remember this conversation:
Dude: "Vazques, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
Vazques: "No, have you?"
Everyone: laughs, high five her or say "burn!"

They may have lost their core audience, but at least they promoted intersectional feminism. That's the most important thing.

I always thought that the Scarlet Witch was an interesting case. What we have there is essentially a woman who's fallen in love with her own vibrator, and consequently because she could not biologically mate with said device, she had to create her kids through magic.
Equating Vision to a vibrator is fucking hilarious.
Not to mention that the character is an instrument of satanic propaganda, paganism and wicca. By the way, magic can only corrupt and destroy, NEVER create!
No wonder she's popular with the Twitter crowd
😆
Problem with Scarlet Witch is they spent several movies establish her character’s emotional growth only to have it all vanish OFFSCREEN.
I love how Gamora is front and center, when they killed her off in IW and replaced her with a blank slate variant in Endgame. They love women, but will not hesitate to undo all their character development.
LAZY WRITING
Poor Zoe Saldana. No wonder she wants out of the MCU.
Good point.
I’m excited for Guardians 3 but Gamora’s return is an absolutely turnoff
Amazing how they managed to make this more pandering than “Girls get it done!”
Remember Starwars "forces of destiny"? But this is for Marvel.
And girls get it done was actually somewhat cool cause it wasn't pushing anything.
I didn't find "Girls get it done!" pandering. They might as well have been winking to the audience when they said it, and that was the point of it.
@@diablows1909 that’s the point exactly! The real world corporate pandering is somehow worse than the parody.

I'll always get a kick out of people who think that screeching and yelling is POWERFUL!
No... a lack of emotional control is actually the opposite of being powerful.
It just allows you to be more easily controlled by others into acting a specific way.
They can make you look like a lunatic with only a passing innocuous phrase, that makes you weak, not powerful.
Jennifer Walters: "I'm interested in the 4th wall... because if I do break the 4th wall, then I can go backwards and redesign the entire MCU"
I'm an Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. fan. And when I see these things I say "Where's Daisy Johnson, Where's Malinda May, Where's Elana Rodriguez ?". But then I think it's good they're being left out of all this stuff because they'd all be re-imagined as.....who knows what. Re Imagined of "Modern Audiences"....and yes we all heard that in The Drinkers voice.
Melinda May from Agents of Shield is a strong character in every way. The fact that she carries on during her duty even though there are scars on her soul caused by her actions is inspiring to everyone.
@@toms7114 It's funny how Agents of SHIELD has more likable, badass, relatable female characters than the entirety of the Phase 4 slate.
@@wiinterflowers4277 That's because, despite his personal failings of being a gigantic ass hole Joss Whedon knows how to make good characters and get the most out of them. He had a lot to do with production of Agents of Shield until his divorce and some unfounded accusations against him during it. The accusations of him being a verbally abusive ass though, those seem to well founded.
@@toms7114 Well he's a confirmed woman hating asshole. But I did enjoy Agents of SHIELD. Should've have had it run for five seasons and then weave the characters back into the MCU.
Agents of Shield was packed with amazing women while never degrading their men! The kind of production marvel could only dream of making now, not realizing they already have. Daisy Johnson's story was absolutely riveting in seasons 1 and 2. I wanted her to become the leader of Shield, and not cuz anyone told me to want it. And we can't forget the unstoppable Jemma Simmons, a woman without powers or training who stands on the front lines daily in order to save lives. She inspires me far more than these "strong marvel women" who can't even recognize what came before them.
The wall represented a bar graph of Disney's earnings so you see they destroyed it completely now they're trying to rebuild it using poop for mortar.
You know what is funny about the Scarlet Witch? She experienced a traumatic experience in the death of Vision, inflicted horrible torture on a whole town while escaping into a fantasy to avoid dealing with her grief, and finally turned genocidal when she was dragged out of that fantasy and made to face reality.
Her entire story after End Game is her running away from reality and the consequences of that. And the worst part is the the MCU treats her as a hero for this.
That’s what bugs me so much, the MCU really tries to push her as it she’s still a Hero after everything that she has done, even in their shows and movies.
We all remember the “they’ll never know what you sacrificed” by Monica that encouraged Wanda to not care about her actions, and then at the end of MoM after all that she did, the alt Wanda just pretends as if nothing happened and tries to comfort Scarlet Witch by saying “don’t worry the kids will be safe” but alt Wanda’s kids were safe before SW disturbed the peace and tried to murder a mother and kidnap her kids, and SW already knew those kids were safe anyways, she saw it in her visions, and when she mindcontolled the other Wanda while on the couch cuddling the kids…which is very creepy btw.
SW is literally the only one endangering the kids, so why does the movie and alt Wanda herself pretend as if SW wasn’t being a crazy selfish creep who was trying to kidnap her children, as like I said, Wanda already knew they were safe, she just wanted the kids because of her own fantasies.
Idc if it’s literally another copy of herself, no one should be this chill about almost being murdered by a home intruder, then said intruder tries to kidnap your kids for their own fantasies, and then you try to comfort them by saying “don’t worry, the kids are safe with me, you don’t have to take them” as if they didn’t try to steal your kids, because If this were any other character, we would see this as creepy, no matter their intentions with the kids (SW would’ve likely abused those children anyways.
And now in this upcoming show, they are still gonna be calling her a hero.
The weirdest thing about the sexism Captain Marvel faced in the movie... is that they were actually correct.
Men say she cant do the military assault course? She immediately falls 30 feet to the floor (which is a weird fucking obstacle for the USAF).
Her dad says she should not be racing go karts? She immediatly goes too fast and crashes, flipping it.
Her military leader tells her to not be emotional and be more logical? She immediatly disobeys an order in combat and is captured by the enemy.

What I don't understand is they keep talking about having these characters/superheroes so that you can relate to them because you look like them. But, you shouldn't want to relate to them, especially because of something so superficial as physical looks. You should aspire to be like the characters regardless of the look of them. The importance is to take on the character's beliefs and values. What makes them do the good that they do no matter what they look like.
Repetition equals industry-standard
My last semester of university back in 2015 I was just filling credit hours to maintain the scholarship I was on and coast to graduation. I ended up in two film classes, one taught by a man pushing 70, the other by a man pushing 40. I took these expecting an easy course load of just watching movies all semester and not having to tax myself learning too much. I ended up seeing this whole point of reference for movies being driven by nostalgia happen in real time. I actually ended up learning more about cinema than I planned and ended up being fun bouncing these professors off each other for my entertainment.
I think what I dislike about this kind of stuff the most, aside from the blatant sexism is that it's forcing empowerment. Like it's demanding you to be empowered instead of just having the story/character speak for them self and being empowering.
Like so many other things today it doesn't come across as genuine, and just feels forced making it worse.
I'm kind of impressed with their determination, they spread that crap out over four episodes.

We started seeing lots of little boys dressed as superheroes ( mostly Spider-Man, a few Captain Americas) and then lots of girls...dressed as princesses.
If only Disney had decades of data to show that while girls and women may like superheroes they're much more of a guy thing.

I've been collecting comics for longer than some of you have been alive and if they wanted to give this an accurate title, it would be Mbarrassment.
People who view Scarlet Witch favorably and down play her villainous acts reminds me of some comments I came across on a clip from the Into the Woods musical film. People were talking about the witch in that film as if she were the true victim of the story. As if she were some tragic character. But once I pointed out that she literally viewed the kidnapping of a couples newborn baby as a justified response to the guy stealing from her garden, they all went silent. And on top of that, she kept the poor child locked away in a tower her whole life mentally abusing her and hindering her social development.
I never got a response, it was as if they had completely forgotten all those awful things or perhaps are just sympathetic towards characters who act as awful as themselves.
They're sympathetic towards female characters who act awful. They brought up Rachel Weisz's character in _Black Widow._ She gets a happy ending while Dreykov is seen as absolutely awful despite him not being able to do what he did without her help. None of the Widows seem to care she was just as responsible for what happened to them as Dreykov was. It's so weird. Oh, and don't even get me started on Harley Quinn. She was a freaking serial killer but it's cool because "The Joker manipulated her". He's The Joker. If you think he's good boyfriend material everything that happens to you from then on is your own damn fault.

I work for a telecommunications company. A large one. Rhymes with horizon. But anyway. The management structure is largely based off how good of a front you can put on and how much of the koolaid you can drink before getting sick. And that stupid phrase "I don't care about the glass ceiling" and how she says she wants to tear down the wall so they can rebuild it... That's the kind of thing you need to do when you want to move up in the company. It's not enough to just know what you're doing and be a hard worker. You need to absolutely sell yourself that you only care about the company and moving up and creating stupid little phrases like this with whatever buzzwords you can throw in are a major tool in that. She's using this little segment as corporate resume fluff. Now she has a powerful little quote or whatever and she has her face out there.
