I know the marketplace dictates what succeeds of fails but I never once felt that I needed an established character to look or act like me.
I want an established character to be the character I grew up loving.
I don?t want a white Blade or white BP or a Blade with asian eyes or a BP with asian eyes I just want them to be black, simple.
But whatever a black Superman won?t trigger me either he?s an alien BUT now I?m curious if ALL Kryptonians in this movie will also be black or are they a mixed culture.
WB will drop the ball lol
Exactly, well said buddy. It?s also a bit insulting to minorities too, instead of using the plethora of interesting minority superhero characters they take traditionally white male characters and make them black, Asian or even female. Its disgusting pandering that is going to back fire at some point. I mean what message are they sending minorities here? We don?t like the superhero characters that look like you so instead were going to take the white ones we like and make them look like you, you dig????
I have no problems with them doing an earth 2 calvin ellis superman or whatever they plan to make this version be- I can see some cool crossovers stories being made with Clark Kent of earth 1 (henry). However there are still so many other black superhero characters that deserve their own movies- e.g John Stewart green lantern. Not every character has to be a minority or a female, all they need is a nice mix where everyone is represented, working together without calling out how people look all the time. ?Whats up black batman, not much Asian wonder woman, how?s white devil Lex doing??? ?YO man there goes da Black Captain America?? no place for **** like that in superhero movies. Its not even close to how people act in the real world so why do that. I dont know about you guys but i dont walk down the street pointing out all the races of people i see lol i just see people not color my goodness.. this **** is off the rails.... Can you imagine greeting people like that, Hey whats up black dude, whats up Mexican Police officer, Hows it hanging Whitey, or Hows it going my asian uber driver?? lol
