Marvel Goes Full CRINGE | Disney is DOOMED

- The Wakanda Forever Clips look TERRIBLE. Disney Marvel's M-She-U Phase Bore ends with the Black Panther sequel, that has the supporting cast vs. a heavily retconned Namor who can't even pronounce his own name. After watching the aforementioned 4 clips, the ones Disney Marvel deliberately picked out to sell this movie, cringe is the only word to describe them. The winds of change are starting to blow. Unfortunately, the more things change, the more Disney stays the same. Too much bad content will lead to apathy, the franchise killer.

I can't believe I was bullied as a kid for being a comic nerd, only to grow up and finally have this stuff be popular, but this is the garbage that gets shoved down my throat.
That's what popularity leads to. Leeches who are in it for money, who eventually take control.
Well,we had some garbage too,catwoman,Batman & robin or mortal kombat 2.
@@italianspiderman5012 Oh we definitely did, but we watched them all, can't say that's the case now.
I would take garbage movies at that level over these any day.
It’s always been popular you being bullied wasn’t the world view😂
In a way, you're still being bullied. It's just that the bullies found their way into positions of comic book writers to make this garbage for a quick buck.
i have MASSIVE respect for Henry Cavil for stepping away from the witcher because the show runners wont respect the source material. Instead of just going "Its jsut a pay check" like the rings of power. That man is amazing and i wish others would learn from him
Two seasons too late. He should have said "I am too handsome and young to be Geralt. And your season 1 script is garbage." But better late than never.
Cavil ironically has the true morals than many of these assholes pretend to have.
Thats racist.
Apparently Cavil wouldn't do the roach death scene u less he was allowed to rewrite it. Arguably the best scene in the whole show.
You mean doing something ordinary, like standing up for your principles?
Cavill is a geek too, he respects the material and his fans, he’s professional and he doesn’t put up with shit.
Met Henry when i was filming on Andor. Such a cool bloke and massive gamer. X
I'm a Spanish speaker and no, you're not gonna simply win me over by saying that the name Namor is pronounced in my language. How cheap and stupid do you think we are? Just respect the comics and write good characters and stories.
Wait, they want to pronounce Namor’s name with a Spanish accent, and Namor has a Spanish accent now? But if he is now from Aztec/Mayan mythology now, that means that either Marvel is saying that Mexico always had Spanish heritage somehow, or they support colonization of the America’s as “brown power” lololol
you put more thought into it then them
Yes, the spanish are browner than the english therefore spanish colonization is obviously better than english colonization.
11:40 also, why the Americas are not consider western???
There's nothing mythical about Aztec or Mayan culture. It's as real as you and me
People get so tripped up when it comes to history and who took what from who... It's so funny.
It's just like how people think white people came up with slavery.
I mean She-Hulk was not cringe enough????
NamorX
Exactly.
This movie is going to be the pinnacle of cringe 😬, guaranteed. From the clips they are showing it's easy to tell it's going to be insanely cheesy, and that's not even getting into the woke shit they'll put in it too.
Oh no, seems like there is more to come… iron *cough* heart
It was cringe SO FAR
Imagine having Henry Cavill on your show, who loves the source material, and all you had to do to appease him was to use the source material instead of wanting to make jokes about Roach dying. Sapkowski didn't even like the games so I can only imagine how thrilled he was about the show
Namor used to mean "Avenging Son" now it's "The boy without love" 🤡
I hate the fact that they gonna use Chadwick Boseman as a way to market this movie by doing it like "You are honoring his death by Watching this movie"
That's my biggest issue with this movie...they are selling his death and looking to make a profit off of it.
They didn't wanna recast immediately (although they did for General Ross...) so they should have done some crazy T'Challa just got sucked into multiverse or something and we have no way/time of rescuing him because of Namorrrrrr invading. So of course Shuri takes on the mantle (with no powers since all the purple flowers were destroyed) and by the time we see BP next in MCU, he could be recast after a few years.
Just my opinion
I agree. It's disgusting!
@@The_Breaded92 Unfortunately “writers” today aren’t smart enough to think about that Get Out of Jail Card.
@@elitronprime7322 sadly you're right
@@The_Breaded92 Yet again, we see them doing what they accuse the other side of doing. Although, in this instance it's a twofer, we'll just refer specifically to the exploitation.
Nerdrotic says "Disney doesn't create. They buy and repurpose it". That reminds me of a line from LOTR. "Evil cannot create. Only corrupt".
Damn ...thats deep
I was reminded of that line when they launched the live-action remake era. I think the exact quote is: "The Shadow that bred them (Orcs) can only mock, it cannot make: not real new things of its own.
Tolkien spit facts
Disney used to be bastion of tradition. Now it’s the vanguard of revolution.
It's so sad that the same things that brought me joy as a geeky child in the 80's via Star Wars / Marvel / LOTR / etc...
Now currently makes me iLL to my stomach and pains me to my very core with every iteration this industry and era regurgitates onto film...
It's like a nightmare I can never wake from and it's sad the state all of this has become 😔
holy shit that is dramatic 😂
Learn to love literature. It will always be there and it's quality and depth will remain unflinching. Find the things that they can't destroy.
Disney is no longer an American company created by one of the most creative, imaginative talents, it's not a multi-billion dollar corp that serves you hospital food
It's almost as if these critics were all told to say the movie was emotional
It's either that or one hell of a coincidence. I know which one I believe! 🙄
Of course. Those tweets sound like sponsored segments in CZcams videos. Content creator have to always mention certain things to get paid. Nobody believes those "critics" have 'tegrity.
What the hell is that thing in the thumbnail??? YUCK!
They all had the same “suggestions” for their positive reviews in their gift bags!!! 🙄
Because it is emotional. A real human died so it is easu to build a story based on this
I miss when entertainment was *entertaining* and not about pushing bullshit politics, or deconstruction, or forced diversity (because we already had diversity for decades), which is just another form of tokenism.
it was always political just pick a side
I miss when reviews are reviews not a word salad shill statement.
Diversity = newspeak for race quotas.
@@ardendragoon its newspeak for anti white racism
Me, too. I remember sitting in a theater, literally on the edge of my seat waiting for a movie... The Wrath of Khan, lets say... and, just looking forward to the pleasure I knew was ahead. We human beings need great stories and amazing heroes.
9:28 I'm so sick of these redonk 'flairs' that leave you totally open for attack and take your eye off the enemy at hand. No one in actual combat would ever do this.
Marvel, Disney and Hollywood are the devil but I have to thank them for saving me lots of money.
“Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin good forces have invented or made” - Tolkien
Sort of like rats, really...they break into things, chew up most of it and crap on the rest to make it unusable for anyone else.
Not a dry eye in the theater? They need to stop pumping in pepper spray into the AC.
I bet they had tears in their eyes from laughing about that cringe BS.
Thank you for the hard truths about film making especially from Disney. I rank you up there with Disparu who is absolutely merciless when it comes to studios breaking Canon just to feel like they're creating something instead of destroying the original. New sub
New sub. Also, 16:30-17:10. That sums up Disney in a nutshell. Very true analysis. Finally, "revulsion, rebellion and finally apathy...the franchise killer"....dude, you hit so many nails on so many heads...lol. That was my process.
It’s hilarious, Woke Rings of Color is getting so much hate they disabled comments on their ads on Instagram. So did Paramount with their “Star Trak” commercials. 🤣
Imagine going into work one day and showing your coworkers and a bunch of random people at the store something you created... and almost everyone tells you you're gay and you suck. 😂
@@sixupsprite5501 indeed! It would prompt me to make better content! 🤩😭😭😭😭
@@sixupsprite5501 That should be on payroll.
Did she just say that the name Namor translates to "a child born without love"? In the very famous words of the great Critical Drinker "F off Film!"
In the movie, his name is a portmanteau of “El nino sin amor” “siN AMOR”
I always had the theory that Disney/Marvel didn't recast Black Panther just because they wanted to take advantage of the unfortunate death of Chadwick Boseman, not out of respect for his memory or to pay tribute to him, the only thing they thought after his death was the potential success of a sequel in which his character has also died. Now I can confirm what I suspected
They're super two-faced. They plaster POCs everywhere for marketing, chastise people for voicing genuine criticisms then start censoring their products to suit a certain eastern superpower for moolah
If they continue like this... Disney will bankrupt. And if that happens, this is a huge blow for Hollywood.
That's good news
Disney was literally invented in an age and time of economical depression and war and all Walter Disney had in mind was to make an entertainment so that people could have a good time.
And now we see where they've ended up.
You can hace a good time while still making enticing stories and not filling your shows and movies to the brim with the cringiest uninteresting and nearly embarrassing lines and dialogue as an example.
He didn't like the current owners either.
and war propaganda, don't forget about the war propaganda...
fuck no. you should look up how fucked up he was and how Disney is all CIA mind control
5 few years ago I would have cried happy tears hearing that the entire TNG cast was coming back together. Now? I couldn't care less.
Nowadays I dread news that my favorite shows/IPs are being touched in any way.
It’s totally a non event.
Nobody cares.
@@rachelleintexas338 I hope the cast is getting a massive payday for this. Watching woke companies burn money is hilarious.
It's surreal, innit?
Quite the opposite now. I cringe to think what Picard S3 will be like. Luckily I canceled my sub so I won’t be watching it.
You hit the nail on the head! I for one don't care anymore about what disney makes and I also lost interest on old favorites like Star Wars and Star trek. They have been ruined! To describe the level and value I perceive from new releases like this I also never think of buying cinema tickets to see them. I directly think "another download worthy" movie.
I think a quote from the legendary game series 'The Legacy of Kain' final game is most apt:
"His final gift to me, more powerful than the sword that now held his soul. The taste of that bitter, terrible illusion...Hope..."
You know things are extremely dire when one fears T’Challa’s legacy more than Ironheart’s introduction
This will have very little to do with the panther. Bait and switch incoming
@@angrytoybox2033 ooohhhh, Loki and MoM prepared me for that
ima say na more to this movie. in english its no more
I feel like Chadwick was a sacrifice to the woke gods
@@michaelsteger9898 *ELITES / HOLLYWEIRD
I'm just curious, can Disney create anything without pushing "the message"?
Not any more
No. Not until they go broke like WB had to.
Yes, they can but they won't because that would mean admitting that they've been wrong with all this Woke garbage.
I read that in Drinkers voice 😏
@@liquidiced as did I
Preach! I hate what they did to Namor.
Last weekend I was at a local thrift store and they Heir to the empire and Tales from Jabbas palace and I was more exited about that then anything from Disney, and it didn't even matter I had 3 other copies of Hair, I feel like I need to make sure they survive this dark time with Disney

😂 This movie is going to be cringe
The "Nay-more" vs "Nah-mooooor" change seems like it was engineered in a lab to annoy longtime fans, because it's exactly the sort of thing they would care about and changing it won't do much for the normies
Nah-MooorrRRRRRR
Explanation is top tier kek. Namor = No amor (no love, as in the child who grew up with no love). This is as nature made as the coof coming from the wuhan lab lmao
That's BS. Namor when spelled backwards is Roman, so I assumed he was intended to be of Roman descent from a fictitious ancient nation Atlantis that was made up by the Greek philosopher Plato. Now Namor is a Spanish name meaning "no love"? WTF
LOVE these concise critiques of the topics you bring up. Very entertaining.
I'm just grateful that that last spiderman was legit.
My enemies call me Nah-Mor, but my people call me "A-goo-goo-gagaga".
Fell off my chair laughing.
Because u are very ignorant and dont know what that means
@@saraylopez3195 Maybe I should challenge you to a game of Pok-a-tok then? You know - to bruise up your ego a bit and teach you what it means to have a sense of humour?
🤣🤣🤣
Lmao. I laughed and said - wtf, go away loser fish guy that looks ridiculous.
Disney and Marvel trying to act like this movie is some kind of love letter to Chadwick when they were already planning to write him out of this movie in favor of Shuri and girl power is SICK. The executives in charge must be breathing a sigh of relief that Chadwick died of cancer as they no longer have to face a backlash for this.
They already knew.
@@LuisCastro-nh3iy in the original script for Wakanda forever before anyone new he was sick according to the leaks Chadwick was going to die fighting Namor in the beginning of the movie. Then Shuri was going to become the new Black Panther to avenge him. That beginning was then dropped when Chadwick died in real life he was always supposed to give up the mantle for the girl power agenda of phase 4.
"If representation matters then the motivation for that representation should matter as well" Gary sir, if ever we meet, I would like to shake your hand.
I thought the first movie suffered for an anti-white message, but this could be worse :(
I called Marvel quits last year. Sad, such a beloved part of my childhood (the comics). Star Wars had such amazing opportunity, they already had everything they needed to make BILLIONS with the EU. Imagine the Thrawn Trilogy being made into a sequel.
I keep saying exactly this - if they just put out a my bad statement on what they've done so far and then said we're making the Thrawn trilogy - cgi, digital voices, so many of us would come back...
I've done the same with a lot of media that's been homogenized by the mainstream. Its not even made for the normies anymore; its made by and for a select group of twitter slackivists that actively hate the source material and the people who like it. They hate you, they hate you enjoying yourself, they hate that you don't love their fanfiction, they hate you not paying attention to them, and they have had 10 years of stomping on legacy franchises like they're 1950s beach bullies at a sand castle competition.
I'll watch GOTG 3, but that's it. Disney + is gone for me.
@@dkartzinel But if they did, and if you did, then it would only be a matter of time before the agenda came back into it. They can't help themselves because they are fans of leftism, not science fiction fans.
How TF did you make it to last year?? 😂 I gave up after Captain Marvel.
The pronunciation change of “Namor” is giving serious The Last Air Bender vibes when they pronounced it “Ong” instead of “Aang” like the show did.
Idk how you say Namor, but I've always said it like "nah-mor", but that's probably because my first language is Spanish
@@eeveeofalltrades4780 my first language is English and I pronounced it like that
I prefer to pronounce it: no-more
@OpTimus What are you talking about?
@@eeveeofalltrades4780 I think he’s talking about Korra or something
Just a quick one, new subscriber, love your channel, 1/4 black Garrett’s editing is so spot on as always! Keep it up brothers!
Atlantis was said to be in Africa. They legitimately had an excuse to make Namor black but they made an ever dumber race swap...
Shuri: “I’m going to need you to redesign the suit.”
Wakandan: “That suit is literal perfection.”
Shuri: “It will be, when it fits an African woman.”
just "woman"... they're all african

@@WealthyWyatt yeah sure, whatever. 🤣
@@WealthyWyatt Yeah, kinda...it's from Batgirl

@@organicmechanic2477 Do you actually care about the critics instead of forming your own opinion? 🤡
Thanks for constantly fighting back. Maybe someday we’ll get our favorite shit back. Disney can shove it!
I have so much respect for cultures who tore people's hearts out while they were still alive to make it rain or some shit.
Most likely they did it for fun.
I mean, living in a jungle without wifi or netflix can be boring...
The positive thing about Disney's destruction is they might have to sell off some franchises and hopefully the buyers will have more respect for the source material and fans.
Amen
We can only hope but they have the funds to keep going until the next generations doesn’t know any better.
i mean, who is gonna buy? you have to get all or you cant really do anything, no one left out there with enough capital to do it, anyone who has a spine anyways
I watched Maverick for the first time this past week and I got 'emotional' because for the first time since I cant remember when, I'd watched a film that was entertaining to the core, with no nod to any message and was just good times. I wasn't being told off, attacked for my identity or shamed for any reason. Its sad, but films like Thor, wakanda and all the other crap that's pushed, I know it's not for me and I just don't bother anymore.
Same. Now I don't even bother with shows or movies that push The Message. There are plenty of other things to watch, read, or play.
Funny I thought maverick was both predictable and unrealistic, I had a hard time staying interested.
I thought Wakanda was gonna be different than the others Marvel made this year. Sadly I was wrong…
@@brianbetts5637 It was pretty basic, but I, like this commenter, would take that over not being able to get through it without smacking myself in the head and biting my tongue repeatedly.
25 years ago Maverick would've just been a derivative sequel, but movies are such trash now that it really stands head and shoulders above anything recent.
Not only have I not watched a single episode of Rings on Amazon I selected an option to remove it from the recommended list.
Dude, I've never seen that woman commenting about the X-Men "name". It made me want to punch the wall. Why don't we have a go fund by true fans of the comics to make our own movies? There would be millions of dollars raised probably overnight. Everyone voting on every aspect. My first movie project idea? Squirrel girl. 🤘
It's clear to people who understand that the name X-Men is collective for both men & women just like when people use the terms human or humankind, it's plural.
And I will just say it the only actor two actors trying to save us all are Henry Cavill and Tom Cruise. Henry with his genuine attempts to love content and Tom with exactly the same but his ability to make it reality. More film from both of those blokes please!
Don’t forget The Rock

Everybody seems to forget Disney nearly went totally bankrupt in the 80s, theres a reason why the disney renaissance was so huge, the little mermaid and lion king saved disney from death.
Yeah, and they recently jacked those up.
They also had to buy Pixar to save their animation department, and now that company is becoming their Direct-to-Video department (which was always the long game).
I googled Disney stock trends today. There's no way the investors are going to let this continue.
Meanwhile, CZcams critics keep expanding their audience...
and yet the way it is now I find myself hoping they go bankrupt
I feel bad for movie theater owners-franchise owners. Hollywood is putting out garbage. Apathy will set in; nobody will go back or remember how great it was to see a movie on the big screen.
My kids are reading my old TMNT and Transformers comics. My Spawn collection is awaiting them when they will be older. They will never read any recent American comics.

Diversity is the opposite of bringing together. Or the word would be " unity / uniformity" They are sowing discord just like Melkor.
Perri Nemiroff used to be with Collider too. I still see her in AMC movie theater commercials every once in a while.
i love it when they say any science-fiction/fantasy film should reflect todays "culture" or "values". No it really shouldn't--I mean the genre is literally called Fiction/Fantasy. It's an escape from the norm, a departure from reality.
I’ve been annoyed by the same illogical thinking. We use the fantasy genre to escape reality and then these muppets try to force reality into every angle and are flabbergasted when no one wants to see it.
I'd say thats the point, they dont want you to escape there way of thinking
Right ? Thats what helps with the feeling of escapism, being seperate from current turmoil. The original star trek series were so much more suble by inverting the state of current culture without beating you over the head with ear grating dialogue that sends your mind to the writers room
Yeah, what happens when the current value system is nastier than a full joe brandon diaper
Waited all these years for Namor just to be like "look what they've done to my boy!" 😭😭😭😭
Moment of silence for whatever they calling him now 🙏🏿
I feel you. He was one of my favorite characters. 😭
Honestly, after Taskmaster I don't really care, lol, at least he's a dude and he has powers...
it is no more
Namor was drawn as an Asian starting with Jack Kirby all the way to Buscema.
It's true to the source and thats what I was expecting.
that recroder/flute in the bg really got to me lol - thanks for injecting some levity into my day!
Brilliant....Using a version of Toto's " Africa ".... During the Wakanda scenes played by recorder flutes or kazoos not sure of the instrument playing the main melody but anyway GENIUS !!
You might say I don’t care Namor.
As a fan I love Henry's loyalty to the source material. Witcher is no longer on my watch list without you.
Welcome back Superman.
This didn't age well, unfortunately.
Love the content, I'm a fan. Please do more with The Critical Drinker, you guys are the best.
Well said. I concur!
Of note, David coming back...sounds like someone had to reboot the computer, to when it was good, because what followed was subpar (though, not a fan of Matt, I have to admit that his run was not so bad, in comparison to what followed him. But I digress).
Not to take away from Chadwick Bosman, but personally, I thought that Djimon Gaston Hounsou would have been a better Black Panther, than how he was used. But I digress.
Im so glad Henry Cavill stood up to all the bullshit and walked away, I always liked the guy, but seeing that level of integrity is commendable.
Honestly cant wait for Wokeanda Forever to bomb at the box office. The shills can wank this movie all they want, doesnt change the fact most of us dont want a Black Panther movie without the man who embodied that mantle best🤷♂️
Man. I'm Mexican. I hate what they are doing. Tenoch Huerta is a really nasty man who deserves nothing good in his life. He doesn't represent Mexico and this mockery of a established character doesn't either.
It is all awful.
Unfortunately lm not so sure it’ll bomb,hope so but probably not
@@debbiebrantley61 yeah ik, but we need a project like this to flop for Disney and the M-She-U to actually take note😔
I think is going to. They'll lie about it. But I don't think I can watch it after Chadwick died. I'm sure he wouldn't mind but it just feels icky. I really liked him.
This won't flop but it won't reach the heights of the first movie
As a person of Mayan descent Namor wouldn't sound like a Spainard. Mayan sounds waaaaay different from Spanish and wouldn't have a Spanish accent.
Why does he say his name before Name-or like he had to think for a sec? Lol it gave me big "they call me...Tim" vibes 🤣
It's only going to get worse. Much worse. It's not just Disney, all studios are going WOKE. Unfortunately Disney has the most popular franchises and we're going to see our favorite characters destroyed.
Hollywood stopped taking risks and hiring independent film directors and script writers with a vision for the story they want to tell.
This is also one of the major reasons why George Lucas started his own special effects company. Because the bosses don't have a vision.
It's like those pitch meeting videos.

Why did they decide to call Namor, Kukulkan? The hell?!?! Glad I never saw this dreadful movie. And never will.
"Finally, I could find a more powerful representation of my culture."
Well, when I was looking into this if Namor is real Latin, and what it means, all I got was stuff about it meaning "Emperor King" and how they changed the pronounciation in the movie etc., and one article says the director stated that the actor's language he was pronouncing Namor in doesn't even have those words, so... I'm confused of how it's a representation of his culture if it doesn't even exist in his culture. Is the more powerful representation of his culture in the making s#!t up?
WHY DO THEY EVEN HAVE "BLACK PANTHER" IN THE NAME?
For sympathy
marketing
Riding the coat tails of a previous success.
-> Supposedly Mayan (since the Aztecs are basically a meme in Mexico while the Mayans still sorta exist)
-> Comes from a city with an Aztec name (Tlalocan, place of Tlaloc, the Aztec rain god)
-> This means they call the water gods "Tlaloque" (Aztec) instead of "Bacabob" (Mayan)
-> The only Mayan thing is that he calls himself Kukulkan, the Mayan Feathered Serpent we know nothing about
-> Kukulkan/Namor is dressed like an Aztec Jaguar Warrior
Namor in the movie is a Mesoamerican caricature, like Speedy Gonzales for modern-day Mexicans. No one will care that Disney can't even do the Mayan conversion virtue-signaling right, though, because SJWs in Mexico aren't super relevant.
Qué pesadilla...
Lol this is not for SJW people living in Mexico though, they dont give a fck about them. This is for the "Latinxs" and Mexican-Americans living in the US.
Really, there is no way that these special persons at Disney and Amazon admit mistakes.
I don't think Chapek was trying to affirm that he was to continue making woke products. I think he was trying to avoid answering the question and the interviewer spun it his way.
Marvel-Fans: "After She-Hulk, they can't be more cringe."

"Hold these kids"

I'm 100% Mexican. I feel embarrassed when this guy says he needs a Disney film to validate "his" culture with "more dignity". My culture is pretty awesome as it is bro, and I appreciate American culture too. No need for race baiting
You get better representation from that Alestorm video than from that guy.

The witcher had the biggest chance of becoming a cultural phenomenon show. It was the first show to come after got s8 when people wanted more fantasy, it had a HUGE fanbase both from the books and games, it had a superfamous actor in the lead role who was also passionate about the source material, they had a huge budget, and it was also airing on the biggest streaming service. And of course, adapting the witcher books is the easiest adaptation. The first two books are short stories and each short story should have been an episode with a monster of the week plot until season 3, when the main story would start. That way it'd differentiate itself from all the other overpriced fantasy adaptations like wheel of time, rings of power, and house of a dragon because all of them have a ton of pov characters, complicated plot (lmaooo you know what I mean) and they try to tell a big story. Witcher isn't like that. Witcher should start with Geralt as he'd go to adventures, slay monsters and meet other characters in an episodic format like old fantasy shows (xena, hercules etc) for the first two seasons. Instead in season 1 we have 3 different storylines and 3 different pov characters and a jumbled time line which adds nothing. Netflix managed to butcher the easiest home run I've ever seen in my life. EVERYTHING WAS READY FOR THEM. But they had to hire the least talented people for this job. What we could have gotten.
Just look at the showrunner for Witcher. I knew it was doomed from the very beginning because there is nothing that could convince me Lauren Hissrich had any love for the Witcher going into the show.
In fact everything revealed shows that much of the people working on the Witcher hated it. There are several common denominators to this IP vandalism and unfortunately most people are incapable of going there.
Welcome to modern movie making.
I was never so proud to Pirates and streamed movies as a kid.
Their production went so hard downwards, nobody wants to watch their woke garbage for free.
Nothing against Liam Hemsworth, but he's a nobody and even if he gives a shit about the lore he won't be listened to.
The show is finished.
I'd say you have a better outline than the entire writers room.
Well put!!👑
You have the most clarity about the show than anyone I've seen!
Namor, no more. Damn you Disney, this has that "renaming with Latinx" energy. Feels like a roundabout co-opt on so many levels
mayans didn't speak spanish, either (disney's racist, lol)
After listening to this, I’m convinced that Disney Marvel went coo coo crazy
COO COO FOR COCOA PUFFS! COO COO FOR COCOA PUFFS!
In my day these were called Blaxsploytation movies. I hate when these movies are on TV. It screws up my brightness and contrast.
Those Black Panther reviews are basically "can I copy your homework?" with the response "sure, but change it a little bit to make it less obvious".
As a history nerd, I really appreciate even the briefest insight into the origins of these characters and the myths and legends behind them. When you said you were gonna bore people with that stuff on the yesterday I just wanted you to keep going on it Gary, it's fascinating stuff.
A+ for that one.
So, we've learned this film's villain has been culturally appropriated from Europeans.
You bitches RACISM sure is pretty damn obvious
The girl who plays T'Challa's sister is actually based. I think Disney regrets hiring her because she thinks for herself.
Literally the only reason why I'm going to see the movie. Haven't watched a Marvel movie in over 3 years
@@solidway She's a badass.
Yep, she almost got canceled over the jabbies
@@spunkush Exactly. Yeah, heaven forbid she should have her own opinion! 🤦♂ Disney fired Gina Carano for posting an anti-nazi message on social media! So... Disney supports nazis? Wtf was that about?
@@spunkush I heard they de-canceled her because she caved in and got her china flu shot
That ghostbusters clip was weird. "Listen, do you SMELL something "
Iron Heart's name is literally "Re Re".
That really speaks for itself.
Another reason to despise Disney. Your video hit right on the nose. They have an uncanny ability to take beloved stories and turn them to garbage.
Woke women holding them hostage
"Namor el niño que creció sin amor" I didn't know Marvel used cartoon logic for their character names.
As latin american, it is painful to watch.
When the producers of a show grew up zoning out to Dora the Explorer, this is whatcha get.
Bruh this reminded me of Moon Knight's alarm "A man without love"
Y la forma en la que lo dijo, súper ridículo y de pena ajena...
Aztec/Mayan did not speak Spanish nor did they have a Spanish accent… 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Their sagging Financials and stock price will drive them first to some “trimming”, which won’t be enough, and then they’ll have to sell off some divisions - if they’re worth anything.
