Also fuck all them punk ass bitches in the MCU that couldn’t defend their POC costars and female costars who were constantly getting harassed and hated on violently but when Chris Pratt was labeled the “ worst Chris” they all came out of the woodwork to defend him and go “Oh no baby, no, you’re not the worst Chris, don’t listen to those meanies you’re great”

Taylor Swift Stans™️ are to music what MCU Stans™️ are to movies. No, I will not be elaborating.

[mwagneto]

fascinated by just how much marvel movies (and shows) managed to perfect the formula of making 2 male characters Just gay enough that the fans who want that will go UMMM IT'S NOT BAIT THEY'RE LITERALLY GAY LOOK!!!! but not too gay that homophobes even pick up on there being any subtext let alone get mad. extremely insidious form of bait. obvious examples being fatws and loki and more recently deadpool 3 and now venom 3

Just saw some gifsets and stills of the new Fantastic 4 movie, and it looks sooooo creatively bereft istg 🤦🏻‍♀️

The most interesting thing about it is that it's a sixties period piece, but it feels like they're mostly just using that as an excuse to make more conservative choices.

I mean, I've always hated superhero comics movies, (not to brag but literally when the first avengers and capt America movies came out, I was like...🤨 do we need to be doing this? Like, as a society?) and I really don't think the Fantastic 4 is a strong enough concept to have the cultural longevity it's had, so, like, obviously I'm not the target audience here. But I feel movies such as this*, really speak to what a dire place we're in, culturally.

*full of (white-ish) people put on screen to be attractive before anything else, especially the women. seeming to promote "traditional values". Not making any effort to be subversive or original, not even via mediocre humor. Leaning into nostalgia and "weren't the aesthetics so good back then?" as a way to avoid coming up with new ideas or asking any hard questions.

I know you may be thinking, "Elise, you haven't even watched the trailer for yourself, let alone the actual movie; give it a chance!"

Well, the point of a trailer is to show what a movie is about and what it's going to be like! Even if the draw of your movie is that it's mysterious and you won't know much until you watch it, that's typically communicated somehow via the trailers. AND I'm familiar enough with tumblr to understand that the moments that get giffed or posted about are usually the ones that excite the fandom the most, so it's safe to assume that there wasn't some really cool or shocking reveal in the trailer that nobody happened to post about.

And what I saw being advertised in this trailer was conventionality, nostalgia, and a general concept of Commercial White Prettiness. With the caveat that, though the story has a historical setting, the women--mainly the one lone woman--have to be Pretty in a way that measures up to 2025 Instagram standards. Obviously being Pretty in a 1960s way wouldn't be sufficient.

(Also obviously I know Pedro Pascal is Latino. If you choose to focus on that over everything else, you are being successfully played by the Disney Corporation.)

MCU Doctor Doom casting…

[justsamwilson]

This blog was created for loving and appreciating the character of Sam Wilson.

And while for years, we have been anticipating the next time we'll get to see Anthony Mackie on screen, playing our favourite character, and proving to everyone how he IS Captain America, this is a reminder that Captain America: Brave New World has been directly called out by the BDS movement (a nearly 20 year old movement created by Palestinians), and we have been asked to boycott it in its entirety.

A zionist settler has been cast. Disney itself has donated $2 million to Israeli relief groups.

it is incredibly saddening that we won't be able to watch one of our favourite's character's long awaited film, but our interest and love for this character, and for superheroes/comics/movies as a whole, are no where near more important then standing up alongside Palestinians, and doing all we can to help them and to listen to their requests.

Join me in boycotting the film. Pirate it if you must.

if your company bends to the will of racists then your company is a joke and you are a pussy. like imagine thinking your million dollar movies are in the hands of white men that have nothing better to do with their lives than sit in front of a camera and bitch about women and black ppl

[portraitofadyke]

I’m sorry but I can’t shut up, why give Sam and Bucky a connection that’s rare to see in the MCU, make Bucky happy again with the Wilson’s, make Sam let him into his world, only to make him miserable government who’s cranky and clearly uncomfortable and ALSO set him up against sam?? If marvel makes him fight Sam, it’s on sight

[thetimelordbatgirl]

....So basically, when Disney/MCU acts like they can't pay the people who help make their films a reality next time they asked to pay said people better, we know its a fucking lie, right?

[shipper88]

As far as changing characters' personalities goes, Marvel only got it right with Karen Page. Because I don't like the whole porn star-addict thing. A thousand points for the MCU just for this one.

[fancylala4]

Well, Disney cancelled the Okoye spinoff.

It’s amazing how a company can fuck up a franchise that has given them the most accolades within the mcu. We all know why that is but it still sucks.

Doctor Doom gets ruined AND WHITEWASHED AGAIN!

4 attempts to get Doctor Doom right

4

And we STILL can’t get this right

A master of magic and science. A man who rivals Doctor Strange and Reed Richards as the most powerful sorcerer and the smartest man alive. He rules an entire country with an army of Doombots. Considered to be one of the greatest Marvel villains. And they still can't get him right. They have to make him a fucking Tony Stark variant. Tony Stark is not Victor Von Doom and Doom is above Tony Stark.

Victor wearing the mask always is integral to his appeal and aura like Vader's mask. It not only hides his vain scars he caused due to his failures, but it closes him off from humanity and makes him believe he’s beyond it.

As far as I'm concerned Marvel Ultimate Alliance and EMH are the only good adaptations of Doom

Doctor Doom being a romani man with a background CENTERING his family's racial persecution. with his ethnicity at the forefront of his motivations and his tragedy. and they really just brought back Robert Downey Jr.

Being romani is INTEGRAL to doom’s character and without that he’s not doom. he NEEDS to be romani and played by a romani character. full stop, don't believe me? Read Book Of Dooms.

Since 1964 Victor von Doom has been established as a Romani character. His childhood was filled with antiziganism and his parents deaths were caused by it. This later led him to become Doctor Doom and overthrow the Latverian government to protect his people

I am so fucking sick and tired of this whitewashing bullshit and the ethnoerasure of Marvel characters.

The Maximoff Twins, The Ancient One, Moon Knight and now fucking Doom.

God fucking forbid an actual Romani actor PLAYS A ROMANI CHARACTER.

But no they pulled another fucking multiverse shit all so RDJ could return and it all feels like blackface from Tropic Thunder

I DON'T GIVE A FUCKING SHIT ABOUT ANTHONY STARK FROM EARTH-11029 OR INFAMOUS IRON MAN

If you wanted evil Iron Man so fucking bad, why didn't you just do Superior Iron Man?

The LAZIEST, DUMBEST, most CONTRIVED BULLSHIT casting ever, Marvel continues to not beat the whitewashing allegations. Doctor Doom deserved better.

Romani actor Charlie Clapman was right fucking there AND HE ENDORSED IT!

I'd even suggest Romani actor Óscar Jaenada as Doom. Again another Roma actor who's actively interested in playing Doom

And you know what? As bad as the 1994 movie was, Joseph Culp the first actor to play Doom in the Fantastic Four (1994) movie by Oley Sassone & Richard Corman. Culp was also white but he very clearly cared for the comics background of Victor von Doom

and you also know damn well they're going to erase everything about Magneto too that makes him who he is… which is his entire fucking background. how horrible of a person do you have to be to repeatedly disrespect the minorities who created these stories?

Doctor Doom is Roma Romani. He is not white. The MCU loves to whitewash its Roma and Jewish characters and it’s time we called them out for it. Dr Doom is not a white man, he is Roma!

They will never nail down the complexity of Victor Von Doom

Every year Doom goes to hell to fight Mephisto to rescue the soul of his mother. He finally won her soul with the help of Doctor Strange only for her to reject him.

No evil Stark replicant will ever fucking match the complexity of Victor Von Doom.

I don't care if this is a one time thing for RDJ. They specifically chose to do this when the fans were begging for a fucking Romani actor. It also doesn't fucking help that Marvel has erased nearly EVERY fucking ethnic character has been whitewashed.

Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver: Erased Romani heritage and whitewashed. Moon Knight & Wiccan: Casted non-Jewish actors. Sabra: Featured in anything at all, and actress is an IDF soldier to make matters worse.

The MCU is full of ethnic erasure, military propaganda & racism. it’s disgusting this is continuing with Dr Doom’s casting. remember to continue to boycott marvel, because of the genocide they support by casting an iof solider to play a character from the zionist terrorist occupation

Dr Doom is one of those villains that it should be IMPOSSIBLE to fuck up but wasting him on a cheap Iron Man nostalgia casting pop might be the way

[memingursa]

My condolences to Comic Book Doom fans

[magnetostits]

magneto being in avengers doomsday is horrible news for me actually i don’t want the mcu anywhere near him

[mwagneto]

to spend an entire movie insulting hugh jackman for being old and out of shape even though he's been pretty open about the absolute hell he put himself through to be in the shape they wanted him to be for these movies and about how the training permanently destroyed his body. and THEN for the payoff to be that oh dont worry he's still extremely buff and ripped with an 8pack so he's hot and cool after all<3 is so incredibly evil

[sourpatchgrapes]

Is the mcu allergic to Romani people???

Updated + p.s MCU WANDA FANS DON'T FUCKING INTERACT, I DON'T LIKE YOU.
