So the lead in a movie that's being marketed as a female-empowerment film of sorts, who plays a comic character known for her female-empowerment message, is using her position to empower some women and minorities. I don't really see that as a bad thing..?
yes, but at the point of denigrating another group? that is not the way to do it.
still not sold on her in the role. I hope it is just down to the blah trailers as this is the least enthused for a marvel movie that I have been since Ant Man..
The article that I read about it had quotes from her, and none of them were denigrating white males. As has been mentioned, she merely wanted to see more women and minorities afforded the ability to review her movies. As in given the chance to review her movies by their bosses at the newspapers, etc. She never said they had to take the place of white men, or that white men could not review her movies, or that she didn't care what white men had to say about her movies. This isn't anything that white men (speaking as one) should take offense to or get worked up about.
