Marvel's The Black Panther

[Ce Ilhuicamina]

You would have to ask that to a "latino". The label doesn't mean anything to me, I'm Mexican.

And hispanics make 20% of the population
Yet there are no hispanic superheroes in either justice league OR avengers.
And at least dc has diablo... marvel has zero latinos in their entire group of heroes. There will never be a latino " black panther"
Latino kids equally see latino characters as funny comedic side characters or gangsters or maids or gardeners.
When is disney going to adress this? Are we ever gonna get a latinos lives matter? Latinosface more police brutality than anyone else because of people hearing spanish being spoken and they automatically assume " illegal"
You should care about this. While hollywood is giving jon boyega a career and making black panther we still get the roles of janitors and baby sitters.

But in this society latinos are invisible. We dont matter. It took guillermo del toro ro make a movie about a fish dating a woman to win rhe oscar
And STILL his entire cast is mostly white

Are u ever bothered by that? The lack of latino representation and the lack of backlash?

Never say Never

Right?!? LOL
Crows acts like he doesn't know that.

How come black fans of anime never revolt over it? Ever boycott ?

We can make nick fury black. Lets make valkerie black too, lets change heimdall black too.

But latinos, indian, native american, middle eastern fans? They can eat crow right?

And america is like 70% white, according to you movies should represent that right?
Thats your point? That it is ok for asian industries to discriminate? Then according to your logic ( which ehollywood agrees on,) american movies should be okay with their 70% white cast

You don't know what's planned for the future of the MCU yet. That will all be revealed by our leader Feige later. Right now every Marvel character both past and present is being looked at for potential movies/tv shows.

Is The new ghostrider in agents of shield is latino ?

If you really want to see mostly white people in your media then I invite you to pay us a visit.

Seriously, in my country the media is ****ed up and even when most people are of native ancestry (i.e. Brown, dark) TV shows and movies still manage to look like a Hitler's wet dream with mostly white peeps in shows, movies and even the news or at least it used to, I haven't watch domestic TV in years not because I don't feel "represented" but because the quality is plain garbage.

Otherwise you seem to be overreacting, it's not like Hollywood doesn't thrive on international markets or that no one outside India watches Bollywood films.

Well amidst all this political discussion here, here is Senor Spielbergo’s take on BP:

"I think Ryan Coogler did an amazing job writing and directing a movie that is culturally, perhaps, the largest cultural break-out film of the last decade," Spielberg told EW Canada. "It's going to really change things and keep things changed for the betterment of all of us."

"I think the whole idea that young white kids from principally red communities are going to say 'I want to grow up and look and be just like Black Panther.' I think that's a wonderful, wonderful thing that's happening right now,"he added.

"The Color Purple was pretty way ahead of its time too. And I was criticized for directing The Color Purple because I wasn't a black director," ​he recalled during the interview. "I understand that now. I didn't understand it then, but I understand the criticism looking back at the time."

Of course he does have a movie coming out and I don’t think he’d give a negative answer when asked such a question, but seems an honest enough response.

You mentioned hollywood and their profiting from international markets,
But that also makes no sense either. Because if they wanted to appease the biggest glibal market then the marvel movies would have half their cast be asian actors. But they have zero latinos and less than 5% asian actors. So.... whats their problem?

Why are they ignoring two of their biggest markets?

Imagine if the Predator killed Dutch half way thru the movie and Carl Weather’s Dillon survived to kill the Predator at the end lol

Why not Billy instead . That's EXACTLY what i mean!!!! Why not billy or pancho.....
Thats the problem. Representation to hollywood producers only means one thing...

Polite warning: I understand that it can be difficult but let's keep the political talk out of this thread.

Thread cleaned.

The representation is focussed on the group who were put into slavery.

So there will never ever be true diversity.

But im going to do as snoop says and call this case closed.
