It's even worse here though because the Black Panther is entirely fictional. There is a 0% chance that the Black Panther's political ideologies ever impact the world. It's just dumb people being dumb.

In case anyone forgot, TCTTS said the Spiderman reboots failed because Peter Parker was white.

What if a paid movie critic doesn't think the movie is that good? Should the media "combat" (go to war) against this person because of our country's history of oppression?Farmer1906 said:
The media must combat the people who don't agree with what is true and just.

Is that true and just? I mean, we can't have anyone dare to offend anyone else in this day and age.

Criticism and free speech are obviously totally fine. What needs to be combatted are unjust criticisms that say more about the speaker or writer than the cinematic content itself. We saw this with the Ghostbusters update.
This is an important cultural and political moment for many in the African-American community (the Time cover story makes that extremely clear). So, again, please help if you can, with ticket purchases the first week, and by lifting your voice.
Does the movie have a 93% rating on RT? Because we all know that at that score, you are no longer allowed to have any critiques.AgMarauder04 said:
When the media makes news over "first negative review," you know the push. Come on.

Don't get so defensive.TCTTS said:
Ha. That I have a "social agenda" is news to me. I literally said the "black" angle of this movie interests me strictly on a box office basis and have never even alluded to anything otherwise. And for the life of me, I cannot fathom how you can extrapolate what I said in that link as "the Spider-man reboots failed because Peter Parker was white." That thought has literally never crossed my mind. I was simply saying that I wouldn't throw a hissy fit if they happened to make him black.
I swear, it's so incredibly sad how desperately some of you actively want certain people/groups to rail against, so much so that you'll create narratives out of thin air. You straight up enjoy drawing imaginary lines the sand just to feel better about your own views and positions, and that is supremely ****ed up.
I'm not your enemy, dude. Our social views align probably way more than you think, but you're too busy pegging me as some liberal Hollywood elite or whatever to understand that.

I never said you're my enemy or anything remotely close to that.
You're a good poster and bring a lot of quality info to this board.
However, you do have a tendency to get really defensive when someone is ambivalent over a movie with SJW themes.
When you get on your soapbox, I've learned to roll my eyes and move on. I suggest others do the same (that's all that my post was saying).

I made up the fact that he went on a big tirade that hijacked the MCU thread about how they should cast Peter Parker as a black actor?
Again, your reading comprehension is terrible. Not to mention a two or whatever year old thread has nothing to do with this film.Bobcat06 said:

I'm simply arguing that there is nothing about Peter Parker that screams "white." He could just as easily be a skinny black nerd living in Queens. That's my only point.

You are seriously making **** up in your head. He hasn't said anything you're accusing him of saying. Maybe you should get off your soapbox.
I could have also bump his other rants about Wonder Woman, Ocean's 8, Ghostbusters, and his thread about the Politics board, but I didn't care enough.israeliag said:
Yeah, considering it's not fact.
Also, considering you brought up a two year old post essentially out of no-where, I'd say that falls under the "anything remotely close" description of your statement:Quote:
