<ToadBrews> My dad saw the movie listings
<ToadBrews> "Oh so now there's a black superhero called Black Panther. What do you think those people would do if we had a white superhero called White Panther? Riot in the streets."
<Khaos> not a fair comparison
<Khaos> the white superhero would need to be the white rabbit or something
<Doug> The White Whale
<Khaos> the brown bear
<ToadBrews> The Pink Panther
<Doug> The White Elephant
<ToadBrews> The Khaki Capitalist

A typically meaningful Mongrel contribution to philosophical jousting

<leprosea> isnt it complete luck whether youre born attractive or intelligent or whatever?
<fmm> Right but that just raises the point of: maybe a just society would compensate for those differences
<Rylinks> ah yes, the 'state mandated gfs' position
<Mongrel> I misread that as 'state mandated .gifs'

I can definitely see Inspector Clouseau as some kind of avatar of whiteness. I mean, it's perfect: He's awkward, completely incompetent, and wins in the end anyway.

Black Canary, Black Knight, Black Cat, Black Terror, Blacklash, the Blackhawks, and Black Tom Cassidy are all white.

Black Bat is Asian.

Black Flash's race is indeterminate because he is a skeleton.

Another variation of that asinine argument that I saw recently (don't remember if I saw somebody reference it here or somewhere else) is "Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie about a secret, technologically advanced monarchy where everybody was white? People would flip out!"

To which the answer is, of course, "They did. Seven years ago. It was called Thor. The people who flipped out about it were you guys. Because you felt that it should have zero black people in it instead of one."

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie with a female black superhero

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie with a trans queer little person supervillain

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie with a society made entirely of Mexicans, like, they're not Mexican, it's the far future and everyone is actually not Mexican but they make their bodies out of the bodies of Mexicans

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie where every time anyone spoke they said FREE SPEECH PKANG PKANG MAMA SEMPRINI

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie where Thor like totally got killed by just like a guy with a gun BUT THEN it turned out that guy was John Wick? And Thor accidentally killed his dog back in Thor 2 and John's been lookin' for Thor ever since and he got a bullet made of adamantium but that didn't actually kill Thor because Thor was possessed by the Phoenix Force and also Apocalypse's spirit from an alternate dimension where Bizarro Superman was the good guy and Lex Luthor was John Wick's dog

Can you imagine if Marvel made a movie where, like, the Nazis had won WWII? holy shit what a concept! do you think anyone has done any media about that concept

what about like someone goes back in time and kills Hitler, but somehow that just makes everything worse? whoa man what a concept! I don't think anyone has ever done that shit before man we should write about it

chapter 1: hitler

Hitler got shot by Rey. Then she went back TO THE PAST (remember, Star Wars is in the past) and was like "whoa, what the fuck? why did I just shoot that guy I don't even know who he is" and then THOR showed up

and then DR MANSPLAINHATTEN SHOWED UP and he was like "actually, nothing ever ends"

Oh man, I'd forgotten about that particular tantrum.

And yes, the "They did: It was called Thor." trope has definitely been making the rounds.

Oh fuck, a NextWave: Agents of H.A.T.E. movie would basically be the best superhero movie ever.

The best arc of Hudlin's Black Panther run was the one where T'Challa teamed up with Blade, Brother Voodoo, and Monica Rambeau to fight vampires in post-Katrina New Orleans.

(Prior to today, I would have said that Brother Voodoo seems like he'd be a very difficult character to put in a movie because oof, that's a tricky character to adapt without falling into uncomfortable racial stereotypes.

But today, I saw a movie that has grossed half a billion dollars internationally in just over a week and has M'Baku the Man-Ape in it.)

Also, they should totally bring back Blade. But nobody wants to see a Blade movie that doesn't have Wesley Snipes in it. So the obvious solution is, make a movie where Wesley Snipes passes the torch and becomes the Whistler character to a younger successor. (Did I read something somewhere about Blade's daughter taking over for him at one point in the comics?)

<Prolepsis9> Valerian is on Amazon Prime, it's not a good movie, but it's a great movie.
<Mordoc> Thanks, I'll probably watch this tonight :)

Image

<Cannonball Fun> Watching Valarian.
<Cannonball Fun> I have never seen two humans with less chemistry in my life.
<Draconis> I don't know if he's always like that, but DeHaan particularly was a complete charisma vacuum.
<Cannonball Fun> This is so bad. Why am I still watching this?
<Cannonball Fun> And it gets worse
<Cannonball Fun> Luc whyyyyy
<Cannonball Fun> Uuuugh
<Cannonball Fun> I hate this
<Cannonball Fun> Ok it's over thank god
