It’s extremely frustrating that serial predators are built up as some sort of unknowable deviant masterminds we can’t possibly crack when the reality is just: police really, really, really, really, really, really, really suck at their jobs.

Those are two pretty random and unrelated works, but ok. Blackness, specifically the experience of black Africans, is a thematic component of the Black Panther story. If the Wakandans were white, the story wouldn’t hit the same way. Hades, on the other hand, is not in any way about being white. There’s no racial…
Wakanda is a country. A pantheon of Gods would represent the whole planet.
They also didn’t speak English. Or star in video games. We adapt stories to fit our contemporary circumstances.
There’s no sign of guns and boss battles and i-frames in the old writings either.
Entitled pasty assholes: “Where is White History month?!”
Because Othello has been played by a white man in blackface for 400 years. Because Fu Manchu has been played by a white man in yellowface for a century. Because John Wayne played Genghis Khan.
Because it was written that way by the writers. There you go, the mystery has been definitively solved. I know you get scared when you see melanin on screen, but I promise, you’ll still be able to turn on Tucker Carlson when the credits roll.
If you wanted to do a better job of trolling you might have pointed out how Wakanda is a monarchical, semi caste-based ethnostate that maintains its society and standards of living by strictly controlling its borders and disallowing immigration.
Take a breather, Racism Bot.
You are making a reference to something I don’t recognize. I must not have seen the movie that takes place “in hades” or a Greek mythology-inspired underworld. BUT, Wakanda may be fantasy to us, but it’s not to the characters within the Marvel universe. It’s meant to be a real African nation, one that has sealed…
there are black gods in Hades bc there were black ppl in Ancient Greece. hope this helps
There’s white people in Wakanda all the time. Bucky, Natasha, Steve, Bruce, Tony, Thor. You see Everett Ross himself in the trailer. Good god, open your eyes.
It looks fabulous and continues Ryan Coogler’s visionary work. I do hope the historical importance of Namor the Sub-Mariner won’t be overlooked; the character predates Aquaman and was created by Bill Everett in 1938. Namor is considered the first anti hero in comics as well as the first mutant and appeared in the very…
Oh that is not the right take.
For years, he kept telling everyone that they were just jokes and he can joke about whatever he wants and he doesn’t have to care.
But when Netflix didn’t take up his documentary, he flipped like a total hypocrite and started saying “But I do care! That’s why I make the jokes!”
His heart is…
I don’t think you’re heart is in the right place if you’re anti-PC thinking isn’t I hear your concerns about these marginalized groups but we can work on the language but instead, y’all are just lunatics.
I honestly think his heart is in the right place on that issue and that he’s really just pushing some “anti-PC” point. Badly, excessively, and offensively in my opinion and so he’s getting what he deserves. He’s in fact asking for it. That’s why his complaints are weird. It seems to me he WANTS this conflict to prove…
Allegedly the staff of the first venue refused to come in to work for the Chappelle event.
Dave Chappelle is a whiny bigot.
Some noise is impossible to block out. Like the power of the #MeToo movement and the clamor of cancel culture, which have swept through Hollywood in recent years and put so many of her former male co-stars, like Depp, LaBeouf and Armie Hammer, in jeopardy of never returning to the profession following abuse…
