Yay! It's Loki! Being super straight just doesn't sell anymore. SAD!

    Not sure who the target audience is. The gays don't seem to be all that into comic book characters and definitely a turn off to most straight men/boys. But since Disney ruined the multi-billion dollar Star Wars franchise they must know what they are doing. I grew up a science fiction nerd and lucked out that the rich kid across the street had an unlimited comic book allowance. He had at least 15 monthly comic book subscriptions all across the DC and Marvel universe.

    Sure, Thor (fat and wimpy), Hulk (no longer angry and now lame), Captain American (gone), Iron Man (dead). Who is left? Star Lord and Ant Man?

    Exactly. Imagine being paid millions to come up with this sh*t and ruin the franchise. At least Hollywood supported the chicom crud lockdowns and ruined the backbone of their industry, expensive blockbusters that are still expensive but no box office.

    If you have ever seen a gay pride parade you would know that they love to dress up in costumes. Grown men dressed up like Tinker Bell but its still a costume.

    Rats are going to force feed everything they FEEL good about. They honestly don't care what people think.

    Look at Nickelodeon. They started force feeding cross dressing and lesbian moms to programs focused toward kids as young as 2 yrs old. They started that shit in 2017. They have lost 70% of their audience but as recently as late last year their leadership said they didn't care about the lost viewers.

    The Superhero industry won’t be hurt by the lockdowns. That is very wishful thinking.

    Wonderwoman 1984 was horrible and has nothing to do with politics

    Didn't it bomb?

    Wonder Woman 1984 grossed $166 million worldwide, failing to break even due to limited theaters during the COVID-19 pandemic, but became the most-watched straight-to-streaming title of 2020. Wonder Woman grossed $412.6 million in the United States and Canada and $409.3 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $821.8 million

    It probably would have, but it came out on streaming because the theaters were closed.
