I’m not arguing the quality of this piece. I wasn’t thrilled when I saw the trailer and I’m a TT comic fans, the TTS are one of my fav comic properties. Just so tired of seeing comment after comment (not just on io9) of men using terms like “slut”, “whore”, “prostitute” (in a degrading way) in response to her.
“Like a cheap whore” the slut shaming on a lot of these comments is really sad. Not just yours. Robin is shirtless in this trailer but he’s a man that’s fine. Woman wears a fur coat and tight fitting costume which shows less of her skin that is ever shown in the comments and she gets labled a whore. Fantastic.
On a TV shooting schedule unfortunately yes, it is hard to achieve.

> The racists might not like it, but you know what? Who cares about their misguided and wrongheaded feelings for a comic book character?
Did anyone get this uppity when Zoe Saldana was cast as Gamora?
I guess because Trump and Terry Bollea are Caucasian and theyre orange, Starfire should be too?
This one’s more confusing than usual. Starfire has always been a woman of color. She’s orange you guys. There’s more than enough to rage about in the Titans trailer without getting hung up on Starfire’s casting.
You erroneously wrote “reigned in like a show pony”; you meant “reined in”. Please correct this.
And it’s a photo shoot. I’m sure there were endless accessories and other pieces. A quick spattering of gold jewelry. Or an ornate handbag on Ms Kimble, in that same position, doing the same work, would completely change the meaning of the photo. But they chose not to do that. I wonder why.
I give her that agency as well, I’m happy that she’s happy. And applaud her accomplishments, but the image itself in the larger cultural context is still fucked up. Is this a woman doing her job? Yes. Is this also a colorist play on the mammy trope? yes. Both of those things can be happening at once. Largerfeld’s…

Everything I’ve seen about this movie is making it the celebration of blackness we need at this cultural moment. I’ve had friends who refuse to see Marvel movies say they are going to see Black Panther. Opening night’s gonna be the biggest party in the theatres since The Dark Knight (even bigger since it won’t be a…

I don’t believe it was for them to wear. He had nice stuff. People feel threatened when you have nice things. So there will always be someone who is jealous and will wreck your whole family just to say you have a nice pair of shoes you can’t even wear. “Look what I got.” mentality.
RIP Jose Malave. You went farther than anyone should be asked to go.
Oh god. This poor family. Losing their Dad and son and partner right before the holidays. Not that this would be ok in July. The heart aches for them.
