You guys are going to whine about the 'sjw' bullshit and then see the movie anyways. You're already sold, regardless. It's all the other people who aren't you (or me) that they're doing this for, to bring into the theaters, people who aren't traditional old, mostly white, mostly male comic book nerds. And they're going to make BILLIONS doing it.
Good trailer. I'm excited. |

How'd that work for Ghostbusters? How's that been doing for the last couple of Star Wars movies? |

Ghostbusters isn't Marvel. Nobody knew Star Wars fell into your "SJW" category until the movie was released, and the "SJW" parts weren't the worst part of that movie. Crying about social issues or crying about the people crying about social issues are both equally pathetic.

Simple reality, though, shows that people don't generally like it when you screw around too much with source material when you're dealing with entrenched iconic stuff, and they especially don't like it when you're doing it for blatantly political reasons. Exceptions happen, but the rule remains the rule. |

Warlock isn't/wasn't an Avenger. Unless I'm wrong on that?

Wasn't an Avenger, but was part of the Guardians of the Galaxy. He's got a really weird history. Even teamed up with Thanos in the comics at one point, to battle a big bad guy. Owned the soul stone for a long time. Which drove him psychotic. And then his evil psychosis became its own physical entity and turned into a villian. He accidentally destroyed the entire universe at one point too.

And when he ended Infinity Gauntlet in possession of it, he subconsciously expelled good and evil from himself to be a better God, the evil manifested into that villain.....The Magus.. |
