Most importantly (to me) is it makes the product worse. No one wants to see Kirk Cameron reboot He-Man and see that he's now fighting liberalism, high taxes, and spreading Christianity to all the heathens on his planet. That isn't what the story was about. One of my favorite shows is Six Feet Under. One of the main characters is gay and that's a huge part of his character - being both gay and Catholic and the conflict there. In my opinion it's a great show. VS- A reboot of Back To The Future where Marty is now gay and instead of having to keep time on track he travels back to promote transgender awareness and change the timeline so Trump (instead of Biff) isn't elected. In short it's the difference between having a gay or lesbian character and completely changing the character to push an agenda... |

The money has already been spent, the debt will be assumed, so why allow a product that may have a ton of conflicts with what you intend to do go out to audiences? |

There is a reason why white people were depicted as the center of the universe....... Because Hollywood was created, produced, written, and directed by white people. Any group of people would have done the exact same thing. That fact is a human reality, and anyone with half a brain should understand that. The effort to include others at a disproportionate ratio to reality should be enough to satisfy anyone's idea of unfair representation but that doesn't fit into the evil ol whitey perspective. Evil ol Whitey goes out of his way on a pretty consistent basis to make sure everyone gets enjoy to enjoy the games he invents, pays for and brings to the world and all he does is catch hell for it. Without whitey there is no Hollywood. Or football or basketball or.........America. Sorry everyone for being such selfish assholes~whitey |

Got the digital download. I really liked the director discussion on the MCU.

Watched it not so long ago, I give it 8/10
Bets one yet of the Marvel universe. I think one of the reason why it worked so well is that the good guys didn't always win, the fight scenes were mostly done well. |

I would agree, but the thing that makes me wonder is the Banner angle. Banner has no memory of being on Sakaar for two years as Hulk, but immediately tells Strange and Co. in the Sanctorum that Thanos is coming as soon as he reverts back from Hulk? I'd say chances aren't that great, especially since they made such a production of telling us how Loki was dead and gone forever, but I wouldn't be shocked. And, that's not mentioning how Valkyrie, Korg, and half the Asgardians aren't among the destroyed ship, either. Hulk probably wanted to hang with his girl Valkyrie if she was put in charge of protecting the other half of the survivors.....
