So remember that time a decade ago where people like Anita spoke up about how the constant sexualization of women may actually be harmful when it comes to the perception of women? Well, the current main character of Twitter posted a 70+ post Twitter thread about how Atomic Heart’s fridge character wouldn’t have been made if a single woman with dyed hair worked on the game. That was then followed by another unhinged rant wherein apparently a black woman in Louisiana, (Aveline), is in the wrong time period compared to Kasumi from DOA whose “totally coded as an assassin.” I would to the thread itself but there are some nsfw pics and also the person gets increasingly with the misogyny that the rant evolves into transphobia, racism, etc.

This is on the same day that someone unironically complained about Cammy’s forehead on the same day that someone else complained that Cammy’s butt, with newly added jiggle physics btw, is actually too small.

Anita was always on the mark.

The current main character of Twitter  ???

No idea who this person is, guess you have to be terminally online to know but this is what I found searching the terms:

Male gamers got hoodwinked for decades with sexist marketing and gatekeeping, while not being informed of how women have been in the videogame industry from the very start. Remember how Nintendo revived the videogame market after the crash of 1983 to market games as toys, and then it became about laser focusing on a demographic, which would be young boys. Tracey Lien's "No Girls Allowed" is an essential essay about this history. Then they used that to make gaming some boys-only space and to be able to bully people less privileged (instead of having solidarity with other social outcasts at the time when gaming had a mainstream stigma). It's similar to how women's history with IT and computers was also from the very start, but is not regularly taught. So you see misogyny being a part of both electronic spaces. When a woman dares to make a series about the issues in videogames and it comes across the eyes of usually male gamers who have been shitty to women, it's an affront to all their efforts to bully more marginalised folks. These are people who wouldn't dare to seek out studying about women in the first place, no matter at what level of media and cultural analysis.

Where does Crossing Eden explain how it's harmful? Is he under the illusion sexists wouldn't exists if it wasn't for videogames? This type of non-sequitur bullshit arguing is exactly why people couldn't stand Anita

And he doesn't have a hint of selfawareness to say this in a thread where they put every character design under a microscope. They talk more about Cammy's butt than anyone else, only difference is that they want it smaller, so now it's an allowed critique of the character design.

The real fun starts once the Nintendies enter the Box office thread to gloat about the Mario movie absolutely pounding the latest MCU releases.

I wonder if Ant Man can make another $100 million to move ahead of Sonic 2.

It was MCU fans. I think I saw an article that the demographics for the first weekend were something like 60+ % single white men.
There's a built-in audience that will always be there of OW. To get long legs you need to reach minorities and families, something that AM3 didn't seem to reach.
Majors as Kang isn't enough, he had an interesting introduction on the last episode of Loki but that isn't enough to appeal to general audience.
Ant Man was never a huge hit in the MCU but this one seems to be a big change from the previous formula.
It went from more smaller storylines to a big universe.
I'm not saying that change is a bad thing but people get more cautious when things deviate from what their used to.
When the mixed reviews and word of mouth start coming out, it's not shocking that most people are deciding to wait to see it in Disney+.

To get long legs you need a good movie with a popular actor :cruise

Here's how it works. First weekend people go see the movie. Second weekend other people ask: "That new Ant-Man movie, was it good?"
First weekend folks say: "It wasn't anything special but I hear that Cocaine Bear movie was fun". Second weekend and first weekend folks go see Cocaine Bear instead.

Anyhow Marvel will keep spiraling down the drain. Movies bomb, Disney cuts budgets, Movie quality drops, audiences stay home, Disney cuts budgets further etc. .
The only way to save the MCU is to go back to just 1 maybe 2 movies a year max. But Disney will try to squeeze this stone until it's completely dead.

lol @ throwing Black Widow in there.

Yes, of course worse than Black Widow, which is at 79% on RottenTomatoes and an A- CinemaScore, as opposed to Quantumania's 48% and B CinemaScore, the lowest ever for the MCU.

You can keep preaching the Black Widow was a good movie, and it’s still completely reasonable people will also preach that it’s not. Doesn’t really matter what the RT scores are. What matters is how the movie actually resonates with audiences and within the MCU.

Phase 4 was a really a mixed bag for me. I adored MoM even with it’s faults, disliked to heavily disliked Black Widow, thought Thor Love and Thunder was a nothing movie, Shang-Chi had very high highs (bus scene) and very low lows (Trevor forest crap), and haven’t seen Wakanda Forever, Eternals, or most of the shows yet other than Falcon and the Winter Solider, Wandavision, and Loki which I all thought were pretty good. Point is, I’ve really tried to give everything I watch a fair shot.

If you believe Black Widow was a good movie, cool. I don’t dislike it enough to try and push the narrative that it’s factually a bad movie like you seem to want to act like on the side that it’s good. But when really thinking about that movie, acting like it doesn’t have very real faults that can turn people off…like comon man.

Just the handling of Taskmaster alone was going to piss some people off for legitimate reasons. Not to mention the whole thing feeling pretty airless and routine among other things. It was the first Marvel movie in a long time at the time that I can vividly remember being concerned after watching. Not just with it’s basic faults as many of them have and that’s fine, but if they were confused on the state of the franchise in general. Yes of course the movie has to deal with sexist assholes spreading their feces, but just because that’s a thing doesn’t mean that real criticism can’t be had. I don’t hate what they did to Taskmaster by making her a woman for instance, I hate what they did to Taskmaster because they made them not Taskmaster at all.

I haven’t even seen Quantumania yet, but if anything the reviews almost make me more intrigued with it. As at least at the surface level it looks far more interesting than Ant Man 2 (and Black Widow for that matter). Which, despite it’s RT scores, I found Ant-Man 2 to be a nearly complete turd of a movie and some of the most detached I’ve ever felt while watching a Marvel flick (and I like Ant-Man 1 quite a bit). I have a really hard time believing that someone with my interest wouldn’t pull more fun out of Quantumania than Ant Man 2 or Black Widow, unless it really is just that bad.

People come to these flicks for a bunch of different reasons. It’s not just all homogenized. If anything, that line of thinking is what’s going to get the MCU into potential trouble.
ZeoVagina never replied back as he's replying to someone else after the next page lol

The specter of GamerGate still looms large. It's like it never actually ended at all.
Notice the slippery use of language here, he uses two different definitions of "GamerGate" to attack one definition to justify a still third definition. All while never outlining any of them specifically to avoid the obvious response.

The problem is that this history is factually false and not supported by anything but an unproven theory. It's also ironic because it's a sociological theory but it narrows the "society" being studied so as to ignore society-wide complications to the theory.

I don't get why there is some need to explain Quantumania opening higher than the other AM movies. By my recollection every Marvel sequel, with the exception of Age of Ultron and Wakanda Forever, has opened higher than the previous movie. It's kinda expected.

Better to just have the discussion on one single thread.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is looking at its first Box Office Bomb in a while with "Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania" a 47% RT, critically panned film that is looking to have its biggest BO drop since its inception, surpasing the reviled "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" as one of the largest drops for $100 M opening Comic Book film

can someone ask Era

if a biological male wants to be a woman has the right to be called a woman as a trans woman

but if a biologically white wants to be a black person does not have the right to be a black person as a trans racial person?

isnt it the same energy?

If the response is then that black people should not be overriden by white people as one has been systemically oppressed then shouldnt we also say biological males shouldnt be overriding biologicl women as biological females have also been systematically oppressed to this day?

Being fair, sexual dimorphism and sexual selection are hardwired into virtually every sexual species, including humans. Cultural sexual dimorphism serves the purpose of strengthening sexual selection. In other words, men want to be manly so they can attract a mate, and women want to be womanly for the same reason. How that cultural sexual dimorphism manifests will vary from culture to culture, but the "I want to be perceived as the perfect woman to attract the perfect man" drive (whatever that means culturally) is hardwired into us. So something like gender dysphoria can be explained as a mutation where a male feels the "I want to be perceived as womanly" drive instead of the "I want to be perceived as manly" drive.

None of that is true for race. There is no "I want to be perceived as white/black/asian/latino/etc." embedded in our DNA, and therefore no real way to mutate into having a biologically based drive to be recognized as one of them. It's purely cultural.

So in that sense, their claim that "transgenderism is valid while transracialism isn't valid" is a sound claim. Now, is it true that there is currently a cultural trend where a lot of trans people that don't have gender dysphoria to "validate" their trans-ness with a biological basis, and are instead doing the cultural thing that transracialism would be? Yes. However, there are, in fact, people with gender dysphoria, which is likely biologically driven, and therefore more "valid" than claims of transracialism.

Our understanding of race is an invention of the U.S. Census. I'm not kidding, they invented our understanding of Hispanic/Latinx/etc. You know that whole thing where Asians make fun of how they're all lumped together from Babylon to Hawai'i? U.S. Census. Yurop's version is slightly different but they adopted most of the same categories to match what the U.S. was doing so the data could be compared. The Global South easily makes distinctions in ethnicity every single day but to the North they're all one group. (Well, three groups.)

They can't admit that race is a social construct rather than an essential component of your very being because it would unravel their entire political claim, which leaves them open to the transracial hypothetical. They have to abandon race or gender as essential and it's too late to back out from the ideological commitment they made to enhance "solidarity" in the singular struggle against capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy. The "essential" component is that you owe your adherence to your group in the existential war, not any right to pursue the cultivation of yourself as a distinct individual.

So remember that time a decade ago where people like Anita spoke up about how the constant sexualization of women may actually be harmful when it comes to the perception of women? Well, the current main character of Twitter posted a 70+ post Twitter thread about how Atomic Heart’s fridge character wouldn’t have been made if a single woman with dyed hair worked on the game. That was then followed by another unhinged rant wherein apparently a black woman in Louisiana, (Aveline), is in the wrong time period compared to Kasumi from DOA whose “totally coded as an assassin.” I would to the thread itself but there are some nsfw pics and also the person gets increasingly with the misogyny that the rant evolves into transphobia, racism, etc.

This is on the same day that someone unironically complained about Cammy’s forehead on the same day that someone else complained that Cammy’s butt, with newly added jiggle physics btw, is actually too small.

Anita was always on the mark.

They have to abandon race or gender as essential and it's too late to back out from the ideological commitment they made to enhance "solidarity" in the singular struggle against capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy. The "essential" component is that you owe your adherence to your group in the existential war, not any right to pursue the cultivation of yourself as a distinct individual.

This is exacerbated by their claims of little-to-no difference between the sexes. Combining that with what you pointed out, it's really hard for them to justify their stance against transracialism, which would be easy if they just grounded their beliefs in reality.

Reality is a reactionary social construct and essentially conservative rather than liberationist, fascist. :ufup

I love how Slayven is in there, posting away happily, until an ostensible adult comes along and does the moderator’s job of locking it because it breaks their rules.

Why is he a moderator? He’s like a child who won a contest to play at being in a job for a day.

Slayven's a mod because out of all the BCT him, Nep Nep and the Fatlord were the least terrible options. Imagine having such a horrible community that the only acceptable picks were Forrest Gump, Nurse Ratched and Big Bird

Well, out of all the moderators, he's the least likely to go on a complete powertrip and treat people like subhuman filth and actually let people discuss shit.

Our understanding of race is an invention of the U.S. Census. I'm not kidding, they invented our understanding of Hispanic/Latinx/etc. You know that whole thing where Asians make fun of how they're all lumped together from Babylon to Hawai'i? U.S. Census. Yurop's version is slightly different but they adopted most of the same categories to match what the U.S. was doing so the data could be compared. The Global South easily makes distinctions in ethnicity every single day but to the North they're all one group. (Well, three groups.)

Look at this shit.  They're trying to kill us.

This is some of the most racist shit I’ve ever heard. And where on the internet is he going to see “black people beating the shit out of white people on a daily basis”?

Unrelated, but black should beat the shit out of white people. Some of us deserve it, like this clown.

Funny. I thought the whole premise of that thread and criticism towards sexualized characters was because it took the agency away from these fictional characters. I guess it doesn’t count when you want to dictate to them their sexual preferences which removes their agency and is far creepier than boob plate will every be.

The Ant-Man threequel also suffered the worst second-weekend drop of any superhero film opening to $100 million or more. DC’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice previously sat in the hot seat at 69.1 percent.

be prepared for the copium posts from the usual suspects, accompanied by BO take to remind you that all is well and everything is going great

edit: I see they're already here. They don't take breaks do they? It's like the bat signal went up.

And you're better by making posts like this? You're also here right away, responding to the same Bat signal, and only to make passive aggressive posts about people instead of tagging or quoting them.

You could just put us on ignore if you don't like when we post in MCU threads.
