>But bros, what about black Superman...
"Woke"ism is not popular with audiences and even though this board gets spammed with seething SJWs the reality is businesses can't go bankrupt to own the chuds. In the next 20 years we will probably see a mass purge of leftoids from all sectors and venues of power.
More people approve of "woke" things than disapprove, but a lot of people can also tell when it's just a marketing gimmick and being woke on a surface level won't save a bad movie form performing badly.
You're outright delusional if you think that. Just because people shut up about it doesn't mean they agree with it. Here in Europe, 9/10 people will think you're fricking insane if you spout half the shit Americans talk about on a daily basis, whether it be race relations, LGBT-related "issues", or modern feminism
Since when do Green parties act in favour of race relations and LGBT topics? Are you mentally handicapped, anon?
The only thing the Green party in Germany is moronic about is the lunatic attempt at having everything be green in the least amount of time despite infrastructure not being set up for that type of change. You should think before you shitpost.
>you're no better than us.
I never stated that but your insecurity says a lot.
the greens in germany have been pushing for lgbt rights all the time since in power wtf are you on about

To be fair, it's not exactly pushing if you're only talking about it, yet do nothing in favour of said community
It doesn't matter how woke or anti woke something is. What matters is that something is GOOD. A black Superman movie would work if it was a good movie.
This. If you have a good script and interesting effects, people will flock to see your movie. The only movie that made tons of money that didn't have either of those in the past decade was Captain Marvel

they kinda are tho i mean look at the self-determination law
Barbie made money because it was a "fun" flick with a decent story. You people really need to stop being such a whiney bunch and give credit where credit is due even if you don't like the property. I feel like some of you are pure narcissists who can never accept other people liking something
It was definitely a trial and error process for the studios before they came to this realization. 2016 through 2020 was the make a woke movie, it fails, studios do not understand why it failed era since everyone everywhere decided to ignore test audiences and feedback and only ever use Twitter as their market research.
turns out something Twitter fricking loves and gains a few hundred thousand likes.....still fails at the box office.
JJ's contract was originally signed with the pre-Zaslav regime. The Zaslav regime is looking to cut costs and had started cutting some of JJ's projects before the strike. Are you really thinking that after this strike JJ is gonna come back in with the same contract he signed pre-Zaslav?
>Why wouldn't they give him the exact same contract from 2019 that was costly >After canning Demimonde >After canning the Constantine and Madame X TV shows >After being quiet about JJ's Superman
Gee I fricking wonder
it was never about black superman, it was to make HIS superman. bad robot is know for setting up deals that are moronic for the ip owners, like giving them extra merch rights compared to others. it's why they make stuff that slightly off like their star trek stuff. with the abrams "magic touch" massively decreasing and the bad financial situation wb is in, not a surprise they are trying to kill the deal.
They would just resume the existing deal, you fricking idiot. I.e. start payments again. They suspended it because the strike means they can’t really do anything. If they wanted they could have chosen to TERMINATE it with something like act of God clause where multiple month long strike would justify them saying they want out.
And it’s not on Abrams if WB suddenly decides they do not want to do shit they asked JJ to develop for them anymore.

the power to steal car radios in the blink of an eye
seriously, why does superman need to be turned into a black guy? is it because no one would watch an original black superhero character?

Black Superman was always a meme, how have minorities not taken offense at getting hand-me-downs at this point, just fricking make or take original characters instead of trying to dickride some other IPs popularity
> how have minorities not taken offense at getting hand-me-downs at this point
Are you guys kidding? The blacks love this shit. They absolutely are loving how white liberals are just completely consumed with worshipping they and wanting to offer them everything of theirs. In all honesty who wouldn’t like the attention? Shit, I wish people were half as obsessed with appeasing me as white libs are with blacks.
Is this an indication that the culture is changing? That not everything in media has to revolve around progressive politics? That not every white character needs to be race swapped black? Oh please tell me that there’s hope left that the world can go back to normal.
How insane do you have to be to not realize that 95% of media just revolves around blacks, the LGBT and whatever is the current progressive talking points that happen to be popular in Twitter that year.
Yeah, those were my thoughts as well. I think something went wrong a long time ago behind the scenes and just now they finally felt enough time had passed they can just declare it dead.
Now what good black "superman" movie can be made in its place?
Calvin Ellis as a supporting character in a Superman multiverse movie?
MILESTONE featuring Icon and Rocket?
ADAM the Blue Marvel as a Black AF Doc Savage type character?
>BlAcK sUpErMaN iS tOtAlLy HaPpEnInG tHiS tImE >nothing ever happens
This cycle has been running like a hamster wheel for fricking years, people acting like Black Supes getting "delayed" again has anything to do with in the last year recent events is a newbie
It might happen SOME day, but for now nobody is willing to go further than hinting to clickbait rag sites that they're considering casting [insert fashionable young black man] for Black Superman to drum up attention for something else
Shame, I was hoping for some cringekino.
thank god

Yet you dumb morons keep voting Greens in power who push that exact shit. Shut the frick up you stupid homosexual, you're no better than us.

You say this when barbie made 1.4 billions lol
Barbie made money because it was a "fun" flick with a decent story. You people really need to stop being such a whiney bunch and give credit where credit is due even if you don't like the property. I feel like some of you are pure narcissists who can never accept other people liking something
Barbie is also “woke”
Barbie is about a spoiled rich woman putting down an uprising by an oppressed segment of society while moping about how hard women have it.
There's no concept of money in Batbieworld, being por Is not a thing
It was a girly girl power movie from a girly brand. Nothing was changed and for political reasons and no one expected it to appeal to men
It made clicks because of the memes and parents tought It was a little girl movie
And very feminist too.
>I feel like some of you are pure narcissists who can never accept other people liking something
Hardcore projection
ok so one movie out of the literal dozen more sjw garbage flicks didn't flop. big deal, that doesn't disprove his point.

They also broke off a deal with Mindy Kaling, the Velma creator.
Also good news.
>People don’t understand what suspend means in the middle of a multiple month lasting strike
JJ's contract was originally signed with the pre-Zaslav regime. The Zaslav regime is looking to cut costs and had started cutting some of JJ's projects before the strike. Are you really thinking that after this strike JJ is gonna come back in with the same contract he signed pre-Zaslav?
Why wouldn’t they? They didn’t go forward with that one show because of the budget.
>Why wouldn't they give him the exact same contract from 2019 that was costly
>After canning Demimonde
>After canning the Constantine and Madame X TV shows
>After being quiet about JJ's Superman
Gee I fricking wonder
gets it

lol sure thing
Man of Steal was canceled.

The only way the world will go back to normal is if you let go of your schizophrenia
How insane do you have to be to not realize that 95% of media just revolves around blacks, the LGBT and whatever is the current progressive talking points that happen to be popular in Twitter that year.
Have you run the numbers? Can you post a graph with every piece of media? Or Is just Cinemaphile bells?
Who needs facts when someone might fall for your unsupported right wing lies?
So, wait, you’re crying for… more representation?
Imagine fricking hiring the guy who single handedly ruined Star Wars
The project was dead in the water. Radio silence for four straight years since the project started.
Yeah, those were my thoughts as well. I think something went wrong a long time ago behind the scenes and just now they finally felt enough time had passed they can just declare it dead.
Ir Barbie is só woke, why she is blonde and white.
Good news.
Next time, baby.
I'm black but...don't touch Superman's appearance.
You are my brother of african heritage
That was a dumb idea anyway.
>gets paid $$$ to do fricking nothing because studio changed direction
sign me in
These days he's at his best when he does nothing, anyways.
Such a shit idea, so glad it's gone.
Now what good black "superman" movie can be made in its place?
Calvin Ellis as a supporting character in a Superman multiverse movie?
