Sure but what i'm saying is I dont really care unless it legitimately makes a show or movie bad. Toss as many woke boxes in as you want as long as its interesting and entertaining.

There's cases where it does for sure ruin a movie or show. I use Wheel of Time as an example all the time. The forced relationships, horrible actors, stumbling story line to accommodate an unnecessary message ,etc. Then there's shows that people bitch about being woke like House of the Dragon where it has no impact.


The problem is people are deeming anything with black actors or female leads who have any strength at all now as 'Woke" and giving it 0/10 before they themselves even watch it.

If you released Tomb Raider now you would have people all over the Internet crying about a woman that can outfight men. 100%.

I'm not sure if the internet has made men a bunch of pussies now that cant just enjoy a chick beating the shit out of stuff because their dick feels threatened, or what it is. Yes Hollywood has gone off the deep end but the crying has become brutal. You cant go on Youtube without some neck beard making a living now bitching about strong females and how these made up fantasy worlds that has magic and dragons, and everything else cant have a female that outfights a man.

That's because of all the woke BS being shoved down peoples throats. These days if you get a new movie with black female lead the kneejerk reaction is "not another one ffs"

I'm old enough to know that it used to be different, when Aliens came out for example no one cared about this shit and it did very well.

So what. Females have had to endure 100 years of cinema, where its always the male as the badass for the vast majority.

Don't give me that bullshit "ITs NoT RaLIStIC" crap when movies are mostly fictional creations with worlds of magic and aliens and over the top ridiculous villains threatening humanity.

>Yeah but its not realistic to have females as strong as men and have men as the dumb people
>Dragon flys by

If the movies clearly shit as in bad acting then yeah its bad, don't watch it just like before with male leads.

Hollywood makes minority characters white.

Conservatives: I sleep

Hollywood guts the liberal elements of a story but makes the MC a minority.

Conservatives: GO WOKE GO BROKE OMG CIVILIZATION IS COLLAPSING WHY DO THEY SHOVE WOKE DOWN OUR THROATS AHHHHHHH

Interview with a vampire? What is the purpose of that remake? Down to the entirety of the script.

The purpose is they think it will make money.

That's capitalism baby

The directors need to just get back on drugs and start making new movies. I won’t even watch another zombie movie

Sounds like you hate capitalism.

Can't risk millions on something new.
