literally no one asked for this and to this day no one wants it
No one asked for this in the comics either and they shoved her and other characters down peoples throats to the point that comic book sales have cratered in the past decade. 2023 saw comic book shop closures at levels not seen since the crash of the '90s. Disney didn't learn from the comics industry and doubled down on the stupid decisions.
I mean the entire comic industry isn't dying, it's been dead for 30 years. It's now just a retro hobby shop. Batman makes up like more than 80% of all comic book sales across the entire industry, that includes marvel. So the reason why they need to replace heroes with different characters is because nobody reads anything else.
Every new hero gets cancelled. It's somehow propped up from god knows where. Individual manga issues outsell the entire industry regularly
>Batman makes up like more than 80% of all comic book sales across the entire industry, that includes marvel. So the reason why they need to replace heroes with different characters is because nobody reads anything else.
This 100%. It's not because of "wokeness." It's throwing something out, hoping something, anything, sticks. Comics are looking for their next Batman/Spiderman.
>Batman/Spiderman
are probably a century old nowadays, how it's possible that they aren't able to make nothing new anymore that sticks?
Take for example wsj, they published dragonball, naruto, jjk, every few years there is something different that sticks. Maybe they should just quit with shitty heroes in thight latex suits
>This 100%. It's not because of "wokeness.”
So much this, making all the characters gay twinks and ugly sideshave lesbians who just talk and eat food for 22 pages has NOTHING to do with decreasing sales, in fact it’s brought in a whole new lucrative modern audience!
The problem is they keep trying wokeness constantly. They aren't throwing whatever they can think of at the wall. They're exclusively throwing wokeshit at the wall.
It's fascinating how your types constantly choose to be deliberately deaf and blind just so that you won't have to admit that wokeness is a problem. Not that I care either way, keep plugging your ears and watch the industry crater even harder. Hopefully you learn to be intellectually honest some day.
Go back, trannies.
This is an npc post. I agree with it but it's still an NPC.
>comics sales have cratered
Comic sales have been plummeting since the 80s. Rest assured the current woke trend is not why comic sales are down because they were already down.
They were doing damn well up until 2015. The 90s were a period of incredible growth.
Shaddup
Yes. The peak for comic books was 1994 or 1995, then the collectibles industry collapsed and comic books, toys and cards started to drop in sales. The low point was around 2002 and then it bounced back a bit and plateaued thanks to the internet and stuff like eBay. It started dropping again around 2012 but sales are still above 1970s levels. They're never going back to 80s or 90s levels though. Manga sales are a meme because libraries buy a good portion of them because they are basically children's books and attract Zoomers to libraries. Trade paperbacks of comics get the same sales bounce because of libraries and that's probably what keeps them out of the red. Nobody buys Ironheart comics, but I guarantee you that every library buys a copy of the trade for diversity reasons. Nobody reads it, but it's in the library.
>Manga sales are a meme because libraries buy a good portion of them because they are basically children's books and attract Zoomers to libraries.
>Adult comics and graphic novel sales hit 35.7 million units (print only) in 2022, out of which manga made up 28.4 million units.
that's a lot of zoomers
That's pretty miniscule. Thought it would be bigger. The top ten New York Times bestsellers by themselves sell around 20 million units a year. Comics and Manga really is a niche market. If Manga were really super popular the shonen jump sales wouldn't be so paltry in America. Even in Japan, they're seeing a huge collapse in sales for the weekly mags. Also never underestimate the power of trendy NPCs who will buy a manga or book because it's the source material for the flavor of the week media sensation. I know countless people who will buy the book of something because it was turned into a movie and then only read one chapter and leave it to collect dust.
Weebs on suicide watch
Manga makes 12 billion $ per year. Anime 40 billion $.
Harry Potter sold about 65 million per volume. One Piece sold 516 million. Best selling western book written withing last 5 years sold 18 million. Demon Slayer sold 150 million.
This. "Wokeness" have nothing to do with it. If anything it's the one thing keeping the industry afloat. People want to see more diverse characters. Look at manga. The sells are soaring. People want new stories and characters. The problem with comic book is that they keep recycling the same old characters.
Manga is not that racially or sexually diverse. How many black female protagonist mangas do you know of?
Will middle eastern lesbians suffice?
No.
>sexually diverse
What? Ranma was decades ago and tarps and ambiguous characters existed for the longest time. Sorry they're not the ugly troons of the west.
More like diverse stories. Capeshit takes up way too much of the US industry and there's just so much you can do with capeshit.
Yeah, they exist the same way old trek had nig nogs. Doesn't make them "diverse" by any modern standards.
trannies trying to appropriate genderbending and traps is unbelievably disgusting
then again so are most things they do
> "Wokeness" have nothing to do with it. If anything it's the one thing keeping the industry afloat.
>keeping the industry afloat
Anon, I-
Ah yes the rich and culturally diverse world of manga with it's 99% vaguely Japanese-Caucasian population.
Did you morons took a wrong turn and got lost going back to that SJW troony infested shitheap that is Cinemaphile?
>Diversity of character mean I need to see black people
I have american fatigue
He might be talking about true diversity, not this corporate, commodified bullshit. All the diversity guidelines from all the companies are the exact same.
>People want to see more diverse characters.
Then take your ass to the Congo or any other black African nation. The U.S. has absolutely zero interest in women "action" films, let alone "action" films lead by shitskin women.
The white majority of the U.S. built the industry, and that is their main audience, and the fact they refuse to cater to them is exactly why people stopped buying tickets to their woke anti-white, anti-male trash.
>Comic sales have been plummeting since the 80s
How tf can an industry "plummet" for 40+ years and still exist?
It became a niche thing sustained by die-hard fans and marketing ploys and gimmicks.
For instance they keep rebooting flagship titles so people keep buying the No1 issue thinking it's going to be a collector's item and pricey in the future. That kind of thing.
Lately the focus is more on the woke front and more "representation".
Can someone go call out the Youtube e-celebs proclaiming that the Creative Committee would've prevented Feige from going the woke route? They seem to be unaware that the creator of Ironheart was on the Creative Committee.
Yeah, namely Andre of Midnights Edge, who portrays the Creative Committee as a Council of Wise Elders when they were in fact idiots, and one of them was Brian Michael Bendis. Indeed, we are very much in the "Bendis Era" of the MCU now:
> Ironheart
> Secret Invasion
> Ruining Wanda
> Forced diversity
> Broken Continuity
It's pretty much the Bendis-CU.
I like Andre but i agree, it annoys me watching him and other people proclaim that the Creative Committee would've prevented it
Ironheart would've been pushed into the MCU even if the Creative Committee had control because like you said, one of the Committee was Brian Michael Bendis, and he helped create the character and was pushing the character himself in the comics he was writing. Every single Youtuber has to be seriously deluding themselves if they complained about Ironheart and think the Creative Committee would've prevented her from being in the MCU. The other person on the Committee was Joe Quesada who mandated One More Day maintained in place.
To be fair things can be good even if no one asked for them. No one asked for Andor. But the building blocks are so bad here, that I just don't see a way they can make this even remotely interesting. It's going to suck.
I did see the Marvels
Just not in a theatre
the porn parody doesnt count (or Iman's deepfake porn)
65% of the audience were men.
"men"
King of all men here
These people were never part of my kingdom
Chuds are so fricking powerful holy shit.
lol the fricking helmet has cornrows? How are black people not offended by THIS of all things?
They probably think it's cool. Don't forget they're moronic.
Wakanda had skyscrapers with thatched roofs and representatives of the most advanced nation on the planet with dinner plates in their lips.
If a racist made it, one of his friends would have cautioned it’s a bit too much.
can even maintain a functioning water system in jackson ms but yea wakanda was real fricking lmfao
this is rough
Black movies have all sort of stuff like that. In Soul Plane they had spinners on their airplane.
spinners is less offensive than implying they are literal spear chuckers living in thatch roof huts.
I agree but they don't think about it like that. They wuz kangz n shit.
It was low key hilariously racist yet blacks threw their money at it
I actually want to comment on this for a second.
Wakanda's a cool concept, but how much cooler would it have been if instead of slapping traditional and hoenstly stereotypical African elements onto a cyberpunk city. It's not like modern day metropolises in the west just look like futuristic medieval castels, and Shanghai doesn't just look the forbidden city with a bunch of neon lights and generic monoliths.
Just imagine if someone created a real speculative African civilization that would have realistically emerged given their resources and isolation. It would look practically alien in such a cool and unique way but instead lets just dress up a watered down coruscant and put a bunch of straw roofs over a few buildings.
Afro-futurism has always been like this. The real problem is that no one can credibly imagine new technology and science rising out of Africa so they're reduced to ideas about natural resources (leftists are obsessed with the idea that Africa is poor because foreigners steal their resources) and aesthetics.
Always found it hilarious that Black Panther opened in Seoul and not an African city.

Here's the thing ... if they actually made a "realistic" african cyberpunk metropolis on par with major global megacities people would complain it looks too "white" and not ethnic enough.
So they had people in the movie just wear tribal outfits, chuck spears and have buildings shaped like large drums with palm tree roofs and maybe a mud palace but like huge.
they are getting made fun of but its ok because Hollywood made it lmao
Bro, have you seen the shit Black folk like? they are literally Black folk
Its the panderverse bro. You WILL eat the goyslop
Probably because there's a black actress and some blacks on the production side. That's the only difference, because the obvious truth is that the overwhelming majority of stereotypes are based on facts
>2025 comes around
>”Ironheart cancelled
>my chud face exerting my super powers
why not cancel it?
This is the best of both worlds: they'll waste even more money to bomb a year later
It's a TV show tho. So no satisfaction from watching low box office numbers.
You can have the satisfaction of seeing them pull it from D+ half a year later because it's not even worth the cost of hosting it in their catalog like the Willow show.
Cammy!
Sunk cost
they want BlackRock ESG funds
They probably already wasted 200 million $ on this trash.
I was hoping they would cancel it.
I can’t wait to never watch it no matter how many times they reshoot.
Iron Man is a white male.
>white
Why does the design look so bad? Why does the CGI of her suit look worse than Iron Man from 2008? Why does anyone watch this shit?
Oh wait, they don't anymore.
>spending more money on this dumpster fire instead of shelving it
they should shelve this and Echo
no one wants white-man-bad, young smug titless brown girlboss shows
Disney can extend itself in to the graveyard for all I care.
reminder that shes smarter than tony stark
They will reshoot her origin story to be comic accurate.
I always found comic art disgusting to look at. The weird shading styles and stupid linework.
Her origin was pretty lame to be honest
why ams the nogs breasts like that.
why
This is undoubtedly the most embarrassing writing ever portrayed in any format. Even pork has better writing. What insult to black people this has to be. That can't be aspire to a career without being victimized.
Holy booba
I almost didn’t notice how awful the writing is
She has more titty hanging out than Foxxy and she's a shitposting cartoon character
>short STACKed
you just know some white dude would colonize in that IRL.
>The Bigotry of Low Expectations
If I didn't know this dumbass writer was sincere then I would have seen this sequence as a biting commentary on the obvious Marxist influence of new woke characters like Ironheart. The only thing the writers understand is the Marxist oppression narrative, thus they have to shoehorn it into everything. And in what is a stunning example of oblivious irony they portray their protagonist as forcing her poor teacher into the role of oppressor so she can assume the role of oppressed. Academic achievement? Personal satisfaction? Acclaim and accolades? Nah, only social justice will inspire her. And only inspiration, not a sense of duty or honor or actual justice, will activate her. Just as the troony will be satisfied only by the euphoria of gaslighting and coercing others into verbally agreeing that the troony is the opposite of what it actually is.
Nice breasts though.
This almost feels like it's making fun of leftists trying to play the victim and just getting told off with common sense, and so they start being obnoxious and literally beg you to confirm their bias.
Cheeky writer. Based editor giving her huge breasts, too.
You give Bendis too much credit
Hence almost. Bendis is a fricking idiot who almost never actually understands what he's writing.
I love black girls with fricking huge massive saggy tiddies so much bros.
YWNBTS
Disney would rather waste money on reshoots for this than say something worth their time that would get people in the theaters, now there is a shocker. So much for saving money
Why do they keep putting out these shitty woke shows after they keep bombing at the box office and on disney+? Are they being funded by some group that offsets their financial losses or something? Why keep doing the thing that causes them to lose money?
DIS shares are in the gutter. hopefully they wake up soon and sell or demand change lol.
peltz is going through legal war these next few months
its gonna be fun once it gets to trial
>Are they being funded by some group that offsets their financial losses or something?
Yes. Blackrock is the largest shareholder in Disney, among other companies, and they're the ones responsible for putting up the money for this globalist ideology trash.
i never saw the movie but its crazy they can make fun of black people like this
They ride rhinos into battle
yes
Especially funny since SSAs have never domesticated a draft animal. Even taming was out of their reach.
>blue eyes
The cultural appropriation never stops
No one likes black women aside from fetishists. You place a black woman on anything on a film or video game items and they will sell like shit.
Did they have to restrict their polycount or something for that suit?
It looks worse than 15 years old cgi
its like a burka. women have to be covered up now.
Looks almost ai generated
I do wonder what the frick were they thinking
there were actual people who though that making this shit is a good idea
>I do wonder what the frick were they thinking
>there were actual people who though that making this shit is a good idea
It doesn't cost them anything because they have a direct pipeline to BlackRock, and it might demoralize some goyim in the process.
How is shit like this getting green lit to this very day? Bob Iger should be imprisoned at this point, its malfeasance.
Iger is running and experiment to see if uber liberal middle aged women can produce content the entire world wants.
so far the answer is no.
Reshoots just mean they scrap everything and start all over
Why don’t they just scrap it permanently. If I was a CEO of Disney I would cancel these movies and use the money to invest in real estate
who keeps greenlighting shit like this? How do you explain to a boardroom of investors that THIS will sell because of...???
They're pushing them some bullshit about future profits once they expand the demographics by trying to get the people who steal Nike's to subscribe
Maybe if they start selling Disney+ time cards in stores the target demographic will steal them and then they can sell more to the store.
If black women want my support they better get up on this dick homie
enjoy your STDs
Nice, let them trow some more money
>have to watch TV shows to understand movies now
Dropped
Also what’s the point of her? Isn’t War Machine supposed to fill the role of Iron-man now that Tony is dead?
Yeah but Don Cheadle detests the contemptible harlot that is now the protagonist of the MCU and he's scheduled to die of ("heart complications")* any day now.
in english please moron
>Look guise, it's like ironman except with a Black person b***h! Guise....guise?
Take that shit to the fricking Congo.
Why doesn't Disney just save their money and spend it on something good, like Spider-Man, Daredevil or the X-men? Children learn to save money at an early age. Why hasn't Disney? I thought israelites like money.
Killing the X-men is next. Look it up.
First comes money, then influence, then using their influence.
It's cute how you think Disney needs to "earn money".
Mate, they ARE working on Daredevil for Disney+
And apparently it's a dumpster fire that's getting rewritten to hell and back lmao
Same thing is happening with the Blade movie. Apparently the story focuses on 3 strong, brave and black women instead of Blade himself. The guy playing Blade threatened to quit.
And they had trouble recruiting someone to play Reed Richards because the script shits on the character with the whole movie about Sue Storm being a girlboss.
To be fair
Frick reed richards and frick the entire fantastic four. Worst group of garbage heroes of designed
>Chuds win by doing nothing
So they've replaced Cap, Iron man, and soon Spidey with new black diversity reparations versions. At what point does it start to be too much black pandering? If you replace all the white heroes with black ones don't you end up with the same lack of diversity?
There is no such thing as too much black pandering. People of color ARE diversity. If you have a room with five white people and five black people the room is 50% diverse, but if you take the whites out the room is 100% diverse. That's how it works.
>So they've replaced Cap, Iron man, and soon Spidey with new black diversity reparations versions. At what point does it start to be too much black pandering? If you replace all the white heroes with black ones don't you end up with the same lack of diversity?
Reminder that every year, the NBA receives an award for being the most diverse corporation because 95% of NBA players are black.
do you think the NFL is mad that all their quarterbacks and kickers have to be white because nogs can't aim something without turning it sideways first?
>turning it sideways first
so good
It's really fricking hilarious how all superhero trash is flopping left and right yet those moronic corps can't just axe everything because those projects are in the works for years and already ate frickloads of money.
They can. WB canned Batgirl and they basically abandoned Aquaman 2.
WB was forced to do this because of the entire DCCU getting canned.
Sure, but nothing is stopping Marvel from scrapping Captain America: Brave New World and starting over again, instead of trying to salvage it with 5 months of reshoots.
can't wait for the Kusuriya live action adaptation
I refuse to believe a black girl who looks like this can make an iron man suit. I'd unironically believe in santa claus before that.
Is that really what the CGI looks like? Its like something out of those old 90s Transformer cartoons.
The suit looks like the new designs in the awful new live action Transformers films. Completely forgettable hack shit
Wasn't this show already finished shooting like a year ago? What is even going on in the MCU?
The reaction to realizing that nothing is landing this year from Disney means they've gotta attempt to fix shit and fast
>What is even going on in the MCU?
No one knows. Not even Disney themselves.
they were caught off guard by demographics change, even though they are supposed to have demographics research
Asda Samus
Looking at the MCU slate for 2025 and after it's really a gamble which of these projects will even get made.
>All you had to do
Why do I have to do that?
If you don't it would be disastrous to the narrative.
I have my own narrative!
the kang has fallen
you DO want to consume product while simultaneously getting excited for next product, right anon?
LOL, they are going to spend even MORE money on something that will flop.
It's not about the money. They can easily afford hundreds of flops.
nobody liked the idea of some unwarranted black teen girl replacing Ironman in the comics and nobody will like it either in live action.
Wait until you see the guy with a woman's lip plate.
How to fix the MCU:
1. Cancel all D+ shows. No more.
2. 3 films a year max
3. Focus on the remaining heroes who people actually like
4. Tone down the comedy, return to having films which feel like they have actual stakes
5. Quit the endless power level climb; super OP heroes in a team focused franchise just doesn't work, especially when you pin said power on garbage characters like Captain Marvel
6. Really, cancel all the D+ shows.
>1. Cancel all D+ shows. No more.
That'll happen whether they want it or not.
>2. 3 films a year max
Even that's too much.
>3. Focus on the remaining heroes who people actually like
At this point that's Peter Quill and only Peter Quill. Thor is the god of bottom text memes. What's left, Antman?
>4. Tone down the comedy, return to having films which feel like they have actual stakes
That's never gonna happen. They embrace that gay shit.
>5. Quit the endless power level climb; super OP heroes in a team focused franchise just doesn't work, especially when you pin said power on garbage characters like Captain Marvel
This might be the thing they get rid of before anything else, just to save money.
*2 films a year max
0 films max*
Burn down Disney HQ*
