Almost like people just want to see good movies and not be preached at/woke scolded, crazy concept

[Uncle]

take it back a step further, and stop making films about shit nobody comic book people

what's interesting is this is what they were always afraid of, going all the way back to iron man, entering "cinematic universe" territory cautiously with a nobody character so they didn't accidentally ruin their bigger name ones

[kaleidoscopium]

Shame at the reviews I've been reading, guess the people who have been weirdly fixating on this movie to fail (and blaming it for all of modern cinema's ills/trying to convince us no-one liked the first one really/no one cares about Kamala/explaining why we shouldn't care about women heroes but instead focus on *insert white man superhero here*) are going to taking this as a win I guess.

And FJ is picking out the few positive reviews for their OT lol, only could find 3

Welp, the review thread is a shit show as well.

I had tons of faith and I'm saddened to see this happen to this specific film and what that'll mean for blockbusters

[Polident]

Women led movies are going to be fine. Wanna help, watch good women led movies. There's plenty of them.

I don’t know. It’s been months since an Asian lady led movie won multiple Oscars. Or or or a movie based on doll directed by and starring women made about a billion dollars. This women in film thing is about to hit the wall.

[Boredfrom]

Are we at the point where we're supposed to pretend a 55% Rotten tomatoes is the end of the world while the 59% the mario movie got was absolutely fine again or?

Just want to make sure I match everyone

I didn’t dislike it at the end, but the film could have been way better than what we got. The pieces were right there.

Disappointed by who though? Did people really expect anything different? MCU discussions on Era have been complete shit shows for years now.

Knives are out for MCU, Marvel and Feige more than I have ever seen

People need to fucking chill on that shit

I love how in every OT thread there are posters with less than 100 posts with drive by trolls bashing the MCU.

 

[kaleidoscopium]

It's Disney... What you want another live action remake? Budgets overrun all the time on lot of shit. Waterworld was the one when I was younger and there has been countless since. I just don't have the mindset that the MCU going away will lead to amazing Blockbuster films. Maybe that's because I lived through a time without the MCU and there was always a ton of garbage. I think people have the wrong gripe. Streaming is what has hurt "the movies" and powerful long form prestige TV, not the MCU.

Streaming definitely hasn’t born out some of the highest quality prestige drama in the past few years. Definitely not. 

Fucking clowns on these sites, can’t admit their marvel rollercoasters ruined cinema lol

Without zeo hyping it up, it really feels like resetera is resigned to the fact that it's mediocre but with good performances and its fun. That's about as much give as the hardcore zealots will admit.

Wait a minute, Fj007 hasn't even seen the movie?!

He also didn’t see Top Gun, and that didn’t stop him from concern trolling threads because it wasn’t a Marvel film making a billion.

The guy is such a little weasel.

Edit: I checked the DC hangout to see the reaction from the neighbors, and they seem glad enough to see how sad those MCU fuckers are getting.

Gotta say, it's absolutely fascinating seeing MCU fans upset at the discourse surrounding the MCU and Marvels. This community is all but dead due to the ridicule and overall vile attitudes toward anything DC.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/dcu-era-ot3-of-gods-and-monsters.168063/page-288#post-114544715

As someone that frequents both, both OTs regularly engage in obsessing over the "discourse" and sometimes it's very frustrating to navigate through, to say the least...

Though yea right now it's Marvel's turn lol

I can believe it. It's just… after being told DC fans aren't a protected class, the films deserve the criticism, the memes and dunking, the several Flash threads to mark each box office stumble, it's weird to see the strong reaction from the MCU, including banners that ask people to be nice.

Like, I saw a tweet saying to take a mental health day because of the discourse.

I remember a time when good comic films where so few that Marvel and DC fans were excited for any promising good offering.

I wonder if Target will be the best deal for Armored Core VI. Want to get it for one of my girlfriends.*

This is my biggest worry and why I want these movies to do well. Of course the reviews and audience reaction dips down when we finally get past the mainly white dude protagonists...

You also realize people are also chasing that John Wick money right?

Oh right no one is whining about those.

For some hardcore comic book fan, Pau seems clueless of why the quality usually drop when they go diversity for the sake of it.

Hint: lack of ideas or actually decent writers. 

Diversity characters work better when you have good writers and creatives that actually know what they are doing beyond: DIVERSITY DIVERSITY DIVERSITY (give us money, you cunts).

I appreciate the reminder that I am, in fact, a human being with thoughts and feelings behind this account haha. Although I will actually say I feel like the forum by and large has calmed down. We haven't had any large issues or flare-ups in awhile that have gotten out of control, and that's due in part to both staffers and members. We've clarified many of the major rules and found methods of working that are consistent and sensible, and members have done very well in reporting issues, approaching us with respect, and honestly just self-regulating themselves (It's as I say; the majority of people here are just here to hang out and post versus start trouble or try to assert themselves in a presumed pecking order). Once the bad actors who are trying to come at staff's throats are removed, things are largely civil! Who would've thought?!

However, as a disabled trans person living in the American South with basically no prospect of ever being able to escape to safer regions, I hope folks will reconsider by election season next year their resolve to withhold their votes; considering that an exponential ramping up of another genocide that is already taking place in many parts of the US and globe would be but one inevitable consequence among countless horrors that will be inflicted on marginalized groups across the planet. (I shouldn't need to explain that the US going full-blown fascist will trigger a domino-fall of democracy like we haven't seen in generations.)

Motherfucker, you’re saying you don’t have legal tender, transportation or any other means to leave the region? Or are you trying to imply you’ll be stopped at the Arkansas border by militia forces checking your papers?

Oh, you CAN leave, you just don’t want to. You’d rather wallow in suffering to feel superior than try to improve your life. 

This whole, ”I’m trapped in the South and can’t escape!”. I get that it can be a question of means, but I don’t believe that is the issue. They want a job, housing, a police escort, and a red carpet rolled out to a new location instead of just jumping in the car, and ‘deuces’. If you feel trapped, leave.

Hey man, how will they manage to find the toilet if they leave? They will be forced to poop down the leg of their pants and kick it under someone else's seat.

Marvels apparently came out in Korea today, and is reviewing lower than Morbius. Prepare for some good meltdowns tomorrow 
 

https://www.reddit.com/r/boxoffice/s/IXnhJx7Msv

For additional context, 52% of those reviews come from Korea. The other 48% come from ZeoVGM and other MCU posters.

[Eric Cartman]

it's true, the genocide is ramping up exponentially!!!!

the grisly state-approved murders of 0.01 people per year could be squared or even CUBED, resulting in 0.000001 people per year

solid maths joke

[Boredfrom]

I'm more of a DC fan than a Marvel fan, and DC has had worse movies. I'm sorry.

I don’t exactly disagree with this but Marvel also has a lot of terrible or mid level films that got a pass or not the level of vitrol as DC films get.

Look at shit like this:

This movie never looked good though, even in trailers. Has the same energy as Shazam

The first Shazam was decent and liked enough to get a sequel, but somehow a shit film that deserves to get compared with The Marvels because… white rappers? 

A lot of RE users have open disdain for DC stuff since the Cape shit era started, while claiming that stuff like the first Dc Strange film was a high art because effects or something.

[Venice]

that's pretty cool!

Altough people are gonna scream for a while i'm sure

"i finally get my japanese assassin's creed and they put a black man in it? fuck the quotas and woke mindset!"

I for one am giddy with excitment to read all the seething comments from the gamers™.

That's cool, what will be less cool is the racists who will undoubtedly cope/seethe/mald about an African samurai

"I can't relate"

People are gonna be mad but that's cool.

It doesn't matter who screams about it because they're assholes.

I hope people aren't weird about this. Please don't be weird about this

They will 100% be weird about this if they were getting bent out of shape by Saga Anderson made them say Alan Woke 2

chud machine awakening in 3, 2, 1...

i wonder what the Chuds are going to have a bigger freakout about?

Yasuke in this game or the Hispanic female protagonist of GTA 6?

Let's see how Gamers™ react.

Oh shit, I didn't event think of this...I wonder if they'll show their asses (more than normal) by not knowing he was a real person lol.

I still remember being disgusted with the nerds on steam bitching about origins. Staying away from the discussion on this one.

The erasure of the Asian male lead continues, I see. What a strange decision.

I feel people need to explain themselves with this take because it's been popping up ever since the rumours about the male character being black started coming out, and it honestly sounds really sus.

The commentary around this game is going to be incredibly toxic. I can see the comments about Uni being woke and how "it's not realistic to have a black person in ancient Japan"

chuds will cry about this for sure

Can't wait for the delicious complaints and "well actually " content creators

I don't think it's that deep - as an Asian male, who is very underrepresented in Western media, I want to play as someone that looks like me, and while Yasuke is a win for Black representation and I love that for people, that's one less game that would star someone that looks like me (which for a game set in Japan you would normally think would be an easy opportunity for that).

While I get the concern, I'm worried it might delve into the Min Min vs. Twintelle discourse (to put it lightly) when the former was announced for Smash. I feel like if the Kunoichi was an Asian guy, there'd be fewer concerns.

LOUDER FOR THOSE IN THE BACK: FUCK THESE HYPOTHETICAL CHUDS

Assassin's Creed: MUSLIM protagonist Altair = ZERO public outrage
Assassin's Creed III Liberation: BLACK protagonist Aveline de Grandpré = ZERO public outrage
Assassin's Creed IV: Freedom Cry: BLACK protagonist Adewale = ZERO public outrage
Assassin's Creed Origins: BLACK protagonist Bayek of Siwa = ZERO public outrage
Assassin's Creed Mirage: MUSLIM protagonist Basim Ibn Ishaq = ZERO public outrage

7 takeaways from these hardcore facts.

1: It's weird and creepy as fuck to be horny that people are supposedly going to outraged Assassin's Creed Japan is going to have an (allegedly) black protagonist.

2: It's even more weird to be more excited about these supposed forthcoming reactions, instead of the game itself.

3: The public who aren't permanently online absolutely don't give a fuck who the lead character in Assassin's Creed is. They only want their virtual tourism in brand new settings because every game sells multiple millions of copies.

4: This supposed outrage only exists in Era's retarded, dumbfuck heads.

5: It's utterly ironic that Ubisoft is the only AAA developer that regularly makes games with diverse leads, yet... Era absolutely hates Ubi.

6: Those who regularly call others chuds have now themselves become chuds.

7. Chuds is among the dumbest, stupidest, words ever, alongside 'Gamer-gater', 'Alt-right', 'TERF, and 'Milkshake Duck'
