Thanks for watching everyone & let me know what you think. I will never bend my knee when it comes to Robert Downey Jr as Kurt Lazarus or anything else I find funny.
So screw Hollywood & their woke identity politics, I’m tired of them & the post woke era is coming.

why 2008 to 2019, what was in 2008 that begann the trend of identity oilitics in hollywood,?
I don't care what anyone says, as a black man I, and everybody I know who watched Tropic Thunder, found Robert Downey Jr's character to be the best part of that entire movie.
Not a single person I know was offended by RDJ playing a black man, hell I was even impressed how well he pulled that look off tbh.
That movie is pure gold and is considered a damn comedy classic as far as movies are concerned.
Fuck anyone who tried to say that movie is racist, RDJ's scene in the trailer was the reason my entire family even went to the movies to see Tropic Thunder.

All she hulk needed was a broom and a pointed black hat.. 🤣 who killed my sister, was it you??
My personal favorite is when they say "this movie isn't for you," and then turn around and blame people for not showing up to the movie.
They love doing that. It's just like female sports. They get mad at people not showing up when the audience should be filled with women. It's not men's fault nobody is watching it.
A lot of examples to this statement not only in the Hollywood world but now it’s crossed into gaming hence the Frosk chick that basically crushed G4s comeback saying if you don’t like it don’t watch it and 4-6 months later G4 closed there studio again when you attack fans you piss them off and there like okay, and then wonder why you don’t have a job anymore or why your show or movie flops
just ignore them. Engaging too frequently feeds them
Lmao the Charlie's Angels reboot by Elizabeth Banks
Isn't that what happened with Black Panther? That was mostly unhinged people. Movie was good though, obviously. But the loud minority of people love complicating things.
Hats off to the woman who left the production of Woman King after researching what she was promoting. Bravo
Lupita Nyongo

Ya kind of crazy right. They also lost really hard. In history there are many bad people doing really dark things but what is worse then someone evil is someone evil that is also a loser. Then you cant make excuses or play devils advocate because the means did not justify the ends at a minimum. They are just unapologetically evil and corrupt.
I bet that when all this wokeness is over, all the people that pushed for it, will look back and say. "I was never that serious about it."
Those who don’t live through it will always brush it off and history will inevitably repeat itself
The less we watch their garbage content, the sooner it ends. They must run out of money at some point.
@@piotrmajewski5978 They will never run out of money. Disney is a monopoly on entertainment with government backing and funding. They basically have a blank check and there is nothing that we can do to stop them.
This is why we should archive it. Not just the films, but also the articles defending the woke.
Like you couldn't find a nazi after the nazis were defeated XD.

In this country, absolutely. Not so sure about places like China or Russia, but in the United States, the majority of whose population is BORN AND BRED to despise being talked down to, and treated like servants, that rule absolutely bears weight!
@@jacob4920 pretty legit those two gonna be better at the coming years since the west is on a downfall
@@popfachrymsilap9479 Russia can't even dominate Ukraine, so please, stop making me laugh while I'm trying to drink my coffee. And as for China? Don't even get me started. I'd like to see them conquer Taiwan first, before I believe they are capable of dominating anyplace else.
@@SimuLord No. Sorry, but there's no putting up with this crap. Not for any reason. Americans are aware of this. The Vast majority of them are completely intolerant of any attempt to squash their own opinions or freedoms. Especially when those efforts are originating from the government, or from the wealthy.
If those other options you mention did not exist, then America would create those options themselves. They would create their own alternatives, rather than bow down to those trying to stifle them. Luckily, those other options exist, as you point out. So there is no need to do that.
I hope they get into these phone games too.
Almost everytime I see an advertisement for the games on my phone, while playing another game, its always about the man cheating on her and she being left alone with a baby. Just all kinds of crap and that needs to go away too. People play games as a relief from that mess. Don't bring that trash into the phone games too. Ugh.
I will never understand why Hollywood would make a movie titled "The Woman King" and not make it about the Celtic warrior queen, Boudica, who led her people in resisting Roman invasion. It's one of history's greatest stories, and it seems to check almost every box they wanted. Their decision-making baffles me.
I'm really amazed that Ridley Scott has never even touched this story, I'd rather see that than any of his terrible newer Alien movies (prequels, ugh). He really does history justice, and Boudica would be fantastic.
@@jneilson7568 Agreed, prequels can die forever as far I'm concerned. They're almost always disappointing.
I'd love to see a Ridley Scott Boudica film. Black Hawk Down, Kingdom of Heaven, and Gladiator are favorites of mine, despite my dislike of their historic inaccuracies. I think in general he just knows how to get the best of both worlds out of his historical films: a sense of authenticity from the history without sacrificing the entertainment audiences want.
Why call it King though?
It's because Boudica was white lol
@@Captain_Jack711 and she didn’t need to put down men to do what she did.
Tropic Thunder was the first Robert Downey Jr. movie I had ever seen, no idea who the guy was. I had absolutely no clue he was doing blackface until the end of the film. Even then, my 12 year old brain thought the bit was a black guy doing white face at the end 😂
Screw black face that’s a hole hue change
Back in my day they actually made cool iconic black characters instead of making a joke of all black people by simply blackwashing previously white characters and insulting all black people with that lazy approach.
Or changing history to fit the narrative, the woman king for example
@@makeitsonumberone1358 yep well director show slave owner good guys and white people are bad guy even british one stop slavery in those slaver owner
Static shock as a great example of a black character that was awesome
Fred Williamson used to be my favourite Black actor. He made great cult films.
@@makeitsonumberone1358 Django another great example. Or Samual L in Pulp fiction. They accuse Tarantino of racism can you believe that shit? Dude responsible for some insane careers with little money.
My biggest surprise was puss in boots 2 at the end of last year. This movie made me realise how incredibly incompetent writing had become because that was the only movie in a long time that knew how to handle ensemble, character development and pacing. Within 90 minutes. It was simply an entertaining movie without any glaring flaws you had to handwave. You know how we do these days with a lot of media since it's still better than the alternative. It made me realise what is missing in todays media.
The fact that a movie with a talking cat for a protagonist was one of the most human movies I’ve watched in years was so strange to me
Stuff like that is the reason this whole woke era is bound to fall, because there is still alternative beyond nostalgia. There are still movies, games, and visual novels, that refuse to bend the knee. And these can keep people entertained. Allowing them to just ignore, and vote with their wallet against the rest of the stuff. Hollywood amassed a lot of money in the past which allow them to lose, but it is not infinite, and when the big guys on the top can't afford their next Thai sex slave, then they will start cleaning house.
New puss in boots the most 🔥 movie out rn tho
@Big Shworm I meant that last part as a joke, but it might be actually right. Considering how illegal such stuff is i can only imagine how expensive would be the "meat", and the bribes to keep people shut about it.
Yeah but that movie haven been in delevope since shrek 2
One major problem with strong women in modern movies recently is that they are badly written, Rey and Captain Marvel are perfect examples of strong female characters who are badly written in movies. A good example of a badass female character that's well written is Rita played by Emily Blunt from Edge of Tomorrow and The Bride played by Uma Thurman from the Kill Bill films.
Emily Blunt has been quoted as saying if she gets a script and sees the character they want her to play is described as 'a strong female character' she turns it down flat. She is amazing!!
Write a strong character who happens to be female instead of writing a strong female character. ex. Black Widow, Ellen Ripley, Sarah Conner (pre T3). I stole this quote from somewhere else
Michelle Jones is also a poorly writtem character.
They don't understand we don't want political agendas in movies😭😭
I respect Lupita for leaving when she actually learned the history. Think she's been in enough woke things, but at least there was a line for her.
Guess her being an actual African must’ve had something to do with it. Because all those black Americans who never set foot in Africa, have no idea what it’s actually like or its history.
@@alexman378 they dont. They are stupid enough to believe that they wint be seen as and treated like an American outside the country
@@alexman378 they fucking ACT like they do.
@@alexman378 Yeah, this 100x THIS!!!
Some of Hollywood's versions of stories from Africa... I... really have to wonder what Africans think about them.
I have some idea what they think of Black Hawk Down. It was basically "Yep that's why we avoid that city"....
but this new stuff? ooooohh.... hmm.... I really wonder about it.
@@alexman378 So true.
Truthfully, as a biracial person, I would’ve loved to have seen the true depiction of the Agoje warriors and Dahomey in film format. It could’ve been an interesting way of depicting and sharing history that most probably aren’t aware of. It could’ve been from the perspective of a slave taken from their village by the Dahomey and the terror they faced by being enslaved by people who they assumed were on their side. There could’ve been a very real, visceral, fearful and human perspective and take on this portion of African history that most people don’t know or don’t want to know. Much like how 12 Years a Slave showed the horrors of history. Stories are how we learn and grow to never make these mistakes again and take those who committed them accountable so that they can improve and grow.
Instead we are being spoonfed agendas and history os being chickenscratched and overwritten to satiate the needs of people who want to believe that they are right.
Once wokeness is cured, everyone who went along with it will be very quiet and hope everyone will forget about it. Those who went against it, especially black actors and actresses who refused to have their names attached to garbage like Woman King (Lupita Nyong'o), they will be remembered as people who holds values, honor and dignity above money and short-lived fame.
Commies dont die so easily
Those who push wokeness now will deny they ever did it. They will claim they were part of those against it.
@@zachw4947 exactly they will reminisce about the “good times”
I agree with everything that is being said about Hollywood and the agenda that they are pushing… BUT!!!! Can y’all please relax with the restructure of the word “woke”? The word woke means your third eye is open and you have knowledge of self. Goofies like the monkeys who work at Fox News took the word and tried to diminish it because anyone who does not fall for the banana in the tail pipe of has pride is a problem. Woke is not the problem, sucka shit is.
I think part of it is how America gives so much emphasis on race. Every news piece and every study and report has to involve race like black and brown, Asian, Hispanic, etc. compared to white. Movies and TV shows featuring Chinese families are celebrated as "Asian" representation instead of Chinese Americans. South Asians are grouped with East Asians as just Asians while Middle Easterners and North Africans are grouped with whites on the census. Race division in America has nothing to do with culture and heritage at all and that's what makes minorities overlook their heritages. Now everybody wants to dress in European costumes in American productions about historical European stories and fantasy because if white Americans can do that so can we. Lupita is from Africa so she is different. I've read comments by black people from Africa and they are perplexed by the race swapping trend in Hollywood. People across the globe are perplexed too. Like why would Asians be in like Bridgerton or House of the Dragons for example. Only minorities in America don't see anything wrong.
The little mermaid is an HC Andersen story, specifically white as he wrote lots of not white characters considering his time. His story is in turn based on norse mythology. Yes, there are black mermaids in Jamaica, yes the cartoon theme implies carribean, but Ariel is danish
Hollywood has spent years telling me that representation matters and that people need to see themselves on screen... and then they get upset when I don't go and see a movie that doesn't represent me or one that I can't see myself on screen in...
😂🎉
Hollywood is dead
Yes, because seeing yourself on-screen isn’t as surface-level as they insist it is. I don’t need to be the same gender, ethnicity, sexuality, and age as my favorite characters to relate to them. I don’t even need to be the same species. I can relate to fictional cats and dragons and such moreso than any woke bullshit people keep trying to feed me, simply because these fictional cats and dragons are somehow more human than the people who are supposed to be “just like me”.
Every writer on literature from Aristotle on has said, in one way or another, that art is about instructing BY delighting, by getting the audience to identify with complex characters and follow the arc of what their actions lead to, and the WORST thing to do is to privilege ideas and lecture the audience instead of persuading them through plot and character--because life is more complex than any ideology. My favorite is from Percy Shelley: "didactic [literature] is my abhorrence."
2020 Hollywood - "With so many amazing years, there's no way Hollywood can ever fail"

Great analysis. I am so freaking sick of WOKE. As a historian, I am appalled at the way history is being rewritten.
woke culture is the ground work for the world of 1984
It will never ‘take hold’ lies NEVER last -don’t worry
I mean... its not really the "woke" people that are rewriting history... Look at florida's rewriting of Actual fucking history books and tell me that with a straight face.
As someone who loves history and wants to be a historian/archaeologist, i agree with you. History should NOT be changed nor deleted.
@@minipufts8466 it like im looking at my internet dopplegangner
Props to Lupita Amondi Nyong'o for leaving the film once she found out the truth. She has principles that many in Hollywood seem to completely lack.
if you haven't seen it check out the film: Queen of Katwe.
Lupita is in the movie and it's based on a true story.
don't want to tell you more about it and spoil it for you.
Couldn't agree more! 👍
When I told my mom that the Woman King was just woke garbage she brushed me off thinking I was overreacting, until I told her about Lupitas story.
I'm French and I've been to Benin and visited former Dahomey palaces and other buildings. The local guides were absolutely transparent on the fact that the wealth of said kingdom came from slave trading of enemy ethnies etc, and that they got blown away by France (which let's be honest isn't that surprising considering the massive technological advantage Europeans had), even though yes they were proud to be able to show powerful ancestry, they never said it was all good.
To me, this movie really all seems like another very American thing about empowering, racial and gender issues etc, made by Americans, for Americans, but acting as if it was about African peoples
as an american we know, it's very disappointing that our own people wanna pretty much wash over slavery even though in americas past we had slavery, im from Texas which was on the confederate side of the civil war and we learn about it and it's never painted in a good light it's painted in as terrible as a light as you can make slavery be. i dont know how they accomplished some bullshit way to white wash over an african tribe that was obviously not good but they did it and im just disappointed in my own country

I use to watch Tropic Thunder all the time when I was like 8. I watched it again after I found the dvd in my closet. Still funny as hell. Even funnier now that I actually understand more of the jokes.
Yea if people don't understand Tropic Thunder they are the racist. The movie was pretty clear and even calling that racism out itself. Only race grifters that abuse black people for attention would call that movie racist.
Your parents are morons
I'm actually one of the people, who didn't recognise Robert until the end🤣, looks like best time to watch it again.🔥💯
I like everything in the movie except the Tom Cruise scenes. His character felt like he came out of a different movie to me and those scenes just don't work.
Or I only watch those scenes and they are HILARIOUS.
Tropic Thunder is a comedic masterpiece and a constestualised black face is not offensive at all.Robert Downy Junior's Kirk Lazarus Is an amazing hilarious character
Dude... just watched couple of clips and I like your delivery. You keep a good reasoning and you also avoid nagging or whining (like some other content creators do to make fun of the woke). New Sub!
If the Woman King story was told from the perspective of a person who was defeated and enslaved by The Dahomey they'd probably made the most groundbreaking, epic, bone chilling and thought provoking film ever created, but instead they'd rather rewrite history and foster bad blood between people.
Some indies should make a movie like that. With an actress that looks as much as possible like Viola Davis taking payment, running and screaming, and coming to enslave everybody. Just to piss off woke Hollywood.
you know what? An actual story from a perspective of those same women-warriors. How poor girls get enslaved, tortured and then become torturers themselves and how they completely loose hope at their system witnessing human-sacrifice ritual. That would be epic. Most likely torture p0rn, but our bars are pretty low since GoT
Precisely!~
It's like let's pretend that African King's never had slaves of their own which sold to the Dutch. Effectively kicking off the Slave Era..
Again-
these people make everything about "whaaamen" and race... they are too stupid and brainwashed by the commy propaganda to see that it's not about them! It's not about women! It's not about blacks! It's just about a bad story with nauseatingly forced narratives shoved down your throat and inaccurate history! It's not even credible... THERE ARE NO PROSPERING MARTIARCHIES EVER! Not in history, and not now! All of this strong woman bs is just that. It's a male power fantasy applied to women! Women try to be men but they fail, and then they wonder why it doesn't get views, why it doesn't work, why they wake up sad and alone drowning in a bottle of wine and a handful of Xanax at 50, with 50 cats to eat their corpse 4 hours after they meet their sad pathetic inevitable lonely death... Women should stop trying to be warriors, and be mothers! They should stop running laws and countries and they should run a house! Women always had immense decisional power through their men. Man always listened to women. Man always simped for women... It's in our nature to try to offer them the best we can... But now they spit in your face and take all you years of efforts and hard earned money for granted! NO MORE!
@@chowderfrere Didn’t Egypt during Cleopatra’s time and before practiced slavery?
This is what happened when people adapt their personalities from twitter and treat twitter threads as their holy scriptures. And hollywood taking what's happening in twitter as serious business is a 🤡 move. I can't wait for twitter or similar media to get destroyed it's honestly just a cesspool of hatred. Every time i opened it to see my fav artists recent works there's always some kind of drama somewhere and it took some self control to close the app unscathed.
I only use it to promote myself as an artist.
Honestly haven’t used IG Facebook or twitter for basically a decade. All I see is people say how toxic it is and it makes me glad to not be involved.
Non stop woke narratives being pushed, and the never ending search for external validation holds no weight when in the real world.
The problem is not Twitter, but the people using them. Twitter dies and these people will just gather elsewhere.
You got that backwards. Hollywood is not following trends. Its creating them. I don't think you understand who runs Hollywood.
I saw a study that said 56% of people under the age of 25 (in the U.S) use sites like facebook, instagram, tik-tok, etc. as their sole source of information.....
Faith is groundbreaking. Whenever she lands she breaks the ground and everything else caught in the crossfire.
That couldn't have been lost on them, there's just no way.
That's literally what I pictured when I heard her described as "groundbreaking" LMAO.
The death of Hollywood began when producers, screenwriters, directors, etc. started "playing it safe" and self- censoring their own work so as not to offend and reach the widest audiences. Can you imagine Resevoir Dogs, Midnight Cowboy, or even Tropic Thunder being made today?? Now way..
Bro I can't 🤣🤣 I had no idea they were making a trans Transformer, Hollywood straight trolling at this point lmao
I never heard this! Are you serious? They really are making a trans Transformer???? Wow, talk about making something the fans aren't interested in......
The 80's is by far the best decade for action movies and produced some of the most iconic movies.
Terminator 2 is the best action film of all time and is technically 90s.
@@southlondon86 love that movie too. 😊
All day long, that's all I'm watching now, can't watch any soy weak minded nonsense
@kingofthecow some decent movies in the 2010's especially with cgi allowing for me epic sequences, but for re-watchabilty, likable characters, some with great plots and simple brutal action, the 80's going into early 90's can't be beat. Even the remakes of those older movies pale in comparison.
@kingofthecow No way 2010s suck compared to the 80s & 90s. They’ll be talking about the likes of Die Hard & Terminator 2 thirty years from now. How many 2010s action films will even be discussed then?
There’s so much history that people of every race have to be ashamed and proud of. It baffles me that anyone would rather have a doctored version of their peoples history rather than a faithful retelling as far as what we know.
Felt the same way about woman king once I did a little research. And the fact that my fellow black people is willing to ignore that for the sake of "representation" is, while sad it's not surprising.
Side note: I just "love" how Viola Davis is trying to shame people like myself into watching a movie I have no interest of seeing. You can have several seats on that one honey. 😂🤷🏾♀️
Trust me many black people stayed far away from that BS movie. Once I saw the trailer I was like nah Im good
@Beyonder right. Also. Folks don't realize that these companies gotta make back all of the production/marketing costs before they see a profit. With that being said, they're only breaking even with those box office numbers as of now
Now if people could just be honest about slavery. It’s time people acknowledged that America and the commonwealth are the ones that ended it, instead of the narrative that currently exists.
And that only because there were female soldiers, they could have made a film about an African tribe that wasn't so bad, or just tell the story as it was, the Vikings were slavers to from UK, France, Eastern Europe, sacrificed people, looted, there are lots of good stories even if you tell the bad things too.
@@KkevrockK I seriously don't get people saying "They don't teach Slavery in school"...every time I say: "Then how do you know about slavery? How do I know about it? How come we both have the same conclusion about it? Because they taught us that in school."
As a black man, the sudden Tropic Thunder outrage boils my blood who are these people, they really don't understand black face and why that was actually so offensive, it was a deliberate act to dehumanise, humiliate and garner an underlying hatred of an entire group of people centered around hate.....Tropic Thunder is about a character, an ingauging interesting, funny, and a personality driven character at that in line with the tone of the move, LOVE Ben Stiller for not apologising he's saved his career, in the UK we had a similar thing come out the blue with a programme called Bo Selecta a fantastic comedy with interesting loveable characters attacked by the mob and Keith Lemon the creator folded like a wet towel crying and whining like a baby all over the place, I can honestly say it was shameful, if I was a wt person and someone wanted to attribute their negative interpretations to something they know nothing about I'd 💯 stand my ground, listen hear if your intentions are not bad don't let someone convince you that it is.
Word-
If you ask me, changing a white film character's skin color for the sake of being diverse seems like kind of an insult to both races. They can't be bothered to create interesting black characters, so they just slap a bit of paint on a white character and then you got diversity with no effort. Pretty lazy.
@@blinkonceonsunday1325 If we're talking about tropic thunder it wasn't for diversity reasons. The character downy jr was playing is an actor who was playing the black character role in the movie.
Plus the entire joke in Tropic Thunder is how offensive and inappropriate Kirk Lazarus is.
@@Druunken_Sensei people who didn't watch it won't get it. he's kind of like a spoof of actors who take acting to the next level like Christian Bale or Daniel Day Lewis.
I feel sorry for that woman who basically said "you must come see my movie or else" . She is delusional and detached from reality. She drank the coolaide, actually she has bathed in it .😢
more like snorted it after drying it
Well considering she made a movie about the biggest slave trading tribe in Africa during that time period.. and tried to depict them as virtuous saviors says all you need to know about her.
Let's make the biggest slave traders into saviors of Africans. Delusional.

That's when I thought: she needs to have several seats. She's biting the hand that supported her up to this point and is due for a reality check.
She won an Oscar but misses the entire point of supply and demand.
I love going to the movies, my partner and I primarily like scifi and fantasy, but basically anything that is a good movie. Most weekends we don't go because there just isn't anything we want to see, either because the subject matter isn't interesting, or the movie is downright bad and not worth seeing. We don't usually get fooled by fake reviews.
Bless Lapita, for having the strength of character to sacrifice a potentially big step in her career and not support false narratives.
Hearing that story why she quit the WOMAN KING finding out the real history of the culture. I wouldn't be surprised her reaction was similar to Barry White on THE SIMPSONS when he found out what "Wacking Day" was about.
I think the problem with Hollywood is it’s franchises. In a world where the general public just wants to go see a movie like Pulp Fiction or Gangs of New York they didn’t have watch all the films in their creators catalog. With things like the MCU you have to watch the films, the shows, the UA-cam videos and you still don’t know as much as someone who read the comics. It’s a lot of effort for the general public as much as it is loved.
There is great youtube short where Matt Damon explains how such movies will no longer be made because without video sales they will never break even.
@@Al-xq4ec Thank God. We don’t need any more dumb superhero crap clogging up cinemas. Maybe the time for good movies will return a lot sooner.
The always-growing conected universe will reach the point when the new potential fans will be intimidated by the amount of stuff they have to watch to understand what´s going on. Then it will all fall down.
@@southlondon86 you misunderstood what I said. You will actually get more dum franchise and superhero movies. Ones which will no longer be made are the good ones.
The woman king could have been amazing if they had depicted the film factually.
Showing their authenticity of this kingdom is awe inspiring. The negative elements, are important as well. Our current generation and younger ppl need to see what the world was like in the past.
They can't show the true past though....The younger generations may figure out what's TRULY going on today !
@@tom-fq5cf it would be nice if they did. As close as possible. Of course you need a bit of grandiose theatre in a film.
But drifting too far, especially changing core elements of a tru story us wrong .that lie can influence a population.
Yea, would love too see more real Africa, without modern politics.
If they showed what really happened, it would have been a horror show. They where savages that killed maimed tortured and enslaved many people. Cant have Africans depicted like they really are. That would go against the message
@@StylePoints14 @René exactly. That horror can make a film a masterpiece. There is an appeal to such films.
Apocalypto, escape from sobibor e.t.c that gore, when well crafted can lead to a memorable story.
You are so right in so many topics. Among your several excellent arguments, I was very struck by your point that films are just too bloody long. Some movies can justify it because they have intrinsic grandeur. I cannot begrudge Godfather Part 2, but I think I have permission to loathe superhero films that last more than 90 minutes, unless they’re doing something subversive.
To that bit on Peter Pan, I 100% agree he should look like a trickster... The kid they chose for this remake doesn't look like he could hurt a fly, now compare him to Jeremy Sumpter in the 2003 Peter Pan movie and he defiantly looks like the kind of kid that would cut someone's hand off and feed it to a monstrous crocodile for the lols
Hollywood needs a complete overhaul.
I can tell you one thing: while I'm not a movie maker, I am a writer and I have no intention of changing my characters just because a certain group may find them offensive. And if my publisher tells me otherwise, I will take my business elsewhere or find a way to self-publish my work. I'm not going to change a character unless it has to do with improving MY story. And if they don't like the characters, they don't have to read it. Simple as that.
Better off trying to self publish. Majority of these publishers are infected
Same, I also won't be changing what I write to please people, I take constructive criticism with a pinch of salt to better myself and write for fun. I also don't understand even a 1/10th of all these woke terms, genders, sexualities and etc? Like wtf is arosexual?

Faith wasn't always a bad character. The difference between old Faith and new Faith, is that old Faith was kind of nuanced. She was fat, often underestimated, often the butt of jokes. But she was a genuinely kind person who would be there for her friends and enemies underestimating her would backfire massively. Wokes don't know how to write kind people, just narcissists like they are. Now, take that concept and give it to wokists? Now she's a mean spirited girl boss professional blogger chasing dudes that look like supermodels and no one ever mentions her weight being a problem.
I saw this comic in like, 2016, and I thought the design of Faith kind of made sense. If you have superpowers on earth, why would your super-powered-body look super-ripped, if technically there's no effort to build muscle needed?
I mean, high metabolism from being super, doing a workout like Mr Incredible, and the skinny frame under body suit from The Boys cover that question, too. But I didn't mind Faith as an unusual take on it, and if she was a nice character who the baddies underestimate even better!
Didn't know they made her all political but not that surprised.
The decentralization of media is inevitable, and if big tech, Hollywood, and these major studios want to survive in any capacity they’ll have to start actually competing again.

The maze runner series is probably one of the best examples of a diverse cast that isnt diverse becuse it has to be. The main cast literally has all the races [white, asian, black, slightly gay british guy etc. ] and you dont even notice it thats how smooth it is.
I never noticed a gay British guy
Only slightly whit newt, u can see it the most when the main cast gears up in the second movie in that shoping mall after they have youst broke out

The 50s and 60s had great movies such as Pyscho, Ben Hur, Lawrence of Arabia(that film inspired Speilberg to become a filmmaker), Rear Window, Vertigo(One of Scorsese favorite films). Also, the 80s had great films such as Empire Strikes Back, The Shining, Indiana Jones Trilogy, Back to the Future, Fandango, and Body Heat. Even though I do agree with Tarantino, with most film now a days are putting ideology over art. The films I just mentioned have influenced many filmmakers.
Think Tarantino was especially annoyed about the censorship of the 50s and 80s, considering he is a director that loves visible and highly stylised violence. Both eras heavily censored to "protect families" and "think of the children."
@@cattysplat Scarface, The Terminator, Aliens, Die Hard, Predator & every other violent movie in the 80s beg to disagree.

This isn’t recent, it’s been going on for half a century. It is largely a corrupted derivative of the New Hollywood Quentin Tarantino is referring to. We are just in a dark wave of this. As I say time and again though, Hollywood has immense competition that it barely acknowledges - it’s here, it’s TikTok. While the production values aren’t up to modern Hollywood standards unlimited, it’s virtually unlimited and free - and most importantly, there are a lot of creators who can tell a story, albeit a short one. We’ve come full circle - they’re the Nickelodeon that kicked off Hollywood in the first place 120 years ago. These grab the attention of people and would be a massive threat even if Hollywood made the best movies ever - and the most astute insiders of that industry are beginning to realize it. That, by the way, it why awards shows, keep losing viewers - people aren’t interested anymore in watching an industry show anymore, Hollywood long ago lost its magic. It’s just another industry whose glory days are over, and is facing a permanent decline. This current wave of woke merely exacerbates this.
When I watched the 300 all those years back at a young age, even then I knew the Spartans owned vast amounts of slaves and weren't interested in freedom (though its not like the Persians were any better). However, at least the director had the good sense to hyperbolise things so much by having goat people, enemy bosses with swords for arms and a highly dramatised version of Xerxes that the viewer absolutely knew to suspend their belief and just enjoy the movie.
The persians had less of a preference for pederasty. And the pedos won.
Do keep that in mind when reading history, or watching it in any capacity.
To be fair, 300 was an adaptation of a highly stylized interpretation of an account of a historical event which itself is more myth than history.
@@richbailey819 a movie that adapts a graphic novel by Frank Miller, inspired by a film (The 300 Spartans (1962)) based on legendified events.
The heroic and whitewashed version of Spartans fighting for Freedom was already in the 1962 film. The stylish and fantasy elements come from Frank Miller, mostly.
@@richbailey819 That's exactly what I'm getting at, the director had the good sense not to try and invoke any national pride like the woman king did, but instead opt for a vague sense of freedom and independence, whilst directly appealing to its audience and not afraid to embrace masculinity.
@@The_Greedy_Orphan you’re saying there was no spartan pride in 300? Did we watch the same movie? lol
You forgot to mention how for animated films released in 2022 Universal completely annihilated Disney both critically and financially.
They're mermaids, but they're from ancient or relatively ancient Danish culture and folklore and European in general, which is not certainly woke or "ESG diverse", so yeah, it matters what skin-color Ariel is (plus, how the F Triton could have such a "diverse" pride with a single woman?!), even the Blue Fairy's, and I'm Italian so I can f-ing say it! 🇮🇹 This is called cultural imperialism!
There is mermaid tales from many cultures but Ariel was white for 30 years so it’s valid to want her to stay that way, by changing her they’re saying it’s not ok for to be white.
Who gives a shit what color she is. That shit doesn’t matter man, it really doesn’t if you really think about it. Let it go and find something real to be annoyed about.

It is less credible to believe that any business that wants to make money would continue following a path that well over 50% of consumers loathe, than that there are forces behind the scenes endeavouring to push that narrative in order to change the public love of a male hero backed up by a subordinate hottie.
Regarding the bit about Transformers at 20:23, "We got this covered" is trying to stir something up. They talk about the IDW comic version of Arcee, specifically the 2005 version. I won't go into details, but it's one of those "we don't talk about this" moments in the fandom
This isn't the first time Arcee is featured in a movie, heck, she debuted in the very first Transformers movie, the 1986 animated one. "We got this covered" could have published the same nothing burger of an article about Arcee's previous appearance in Revenge of the Fallen in 2009
With all that said, Arcee will be a regular bot In Rise of the Beasts

I want to see The Woman King with that EXACT SAME LEAD in the EXACT SAME CHARACTER as a background character to a protagonist that is an enslaved woman by the Dahomey.
That would be a phenomenal acknowledgement of
1) History having two sides
2) Correction of the view/reputation of the Dahomey.
At first. I wasnt thinking these movies are important but it's these artistic impressions that will write the history that will exist in the minds of the next generation. It has sort of taken away the truth and the facts out from history and made it a total lie. It wont change anything for the people who see through it, but repeat a lie long enough (through the generations) and it becomes a "truth".
They are usually indoctrinated and a lost cause. I just consider those losers "dead"
Good example of that is the travesty that is the mini series called "Roots."
IT was incredibly dramatized and very VERY inaccurate. Yet people still think it was completely true when in reality.. no.. no it was not.
Georbels..Hitler's propagandist, said something to that affect.
Makes you wonder how much of history is true.
Thank you for bringing up Tropic Thunder! RDJ did magnificently playing a white actor playing a black man, and didn’t find it offensive at all, (since it was played as satire). Actually the most complaints were about Stiller’s role when he played “Simple Jack”, and the use of the word “retard”.
Still have to give Tom Cruise praise for his best comic performance under unrecognizable makeup! This HAD to be his take on Weinstein!!
The best part is the movie ITSELF is beating you over the head that Robert Downey Jr’s character and Ben Stiller are both stupid stupid actors.
The movie doesn’t glorify him. All of the other characters make fun of him for his method acting.
I think they also get so disgusted they turn off the movie halfway through because no one ever brings up the fact Robert also plays an Asian
Wow, an actress left the movie because of the false history. Much respect, I would have cashed the paycheck. I certainly do not blame any actors for taking that fat check.
Sicario and Tropic Thunder. Damn, we need those types of movies to return in a big way!
The best movies recently were films like Guillermo Del Torro's Pinocchio, Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. I hope those are a sign of the things to come.

Random side note I like how Adam wingard the director of Godzilla vs Kong said he didn't want to put any politics in that film, and it became the first success post pandemic and was generally praised as a fun action flick. Imagine that people want to see a movie for fun not to be beat over the head with a message
The original Godzilla is a political movie
@@Moggymorgenstein yes its is that's what they were going for in it though that's one of the reasons its my favorite movie of all time. The point I was making is that action movies that should just be fun popcorn flicks are all trying to push some political agenda now and most movie goers are getting sick of it. GvK avoided that and was a well received success
True... My favorite part of _Gozilla vs Kong_ was when the big gorilla punched the giant lizard.

Occasionally, old movies would throw in a ham-handed message. In Volcano, for example, when a kid is told to find a particular firefighter, he turns and looks and says “they’re all the same color” (because they are all covered in ash). Gag me with a spork, that was painful, but at least it was only one scene in an already laughably bad movie. I don’t go to the movies these days. I can’t imagine sitting through a two hour guilt lecture about how I must change to be a better human being. That’s NOT entertainment.

Hollywood is condemning us for laughing at stuff they pushed out. And we're the bad guys??? 🤣
To be fair, 300 was a movie about a bunch of warmongering slavers who were revised into being heroic freemen who stood up to tyranny. We've had stories about awful people presented as good before. But also, the movie is so over-the-top no one would mistake it for being historically accurate.

In the 90s, I went to see Space Jam twice because I liked the subtle Basketball story of Jordan and I really liked the female Bunny in the film. I also saw Men in Black and Men in Black 2 films back in the 90s because they were funny as well as a fair few Eddy Murphy films.
I also remember the Police Academy films from 1 to 7 as a kid and I loved them all, they had 3 or 4 African American actors involved once of which was a beautiful woman with a sweet quiet voice who can speak LOUD when she gets angry.
So those who think that people won't see African American people in the cinema because of x, y or z reasons I don't think they know what films were like back in 1980s and 1990s.

16:32 "From 1960 to 1966 was 'The 50s Part II'!" - Tarantino's summary is really profound here. I never knew how to understand the 'sterile' first half of the 60s, but he puts it in a nutshell with such a simple formula.
I feel honored to have grown up in that 08-19 era. Because being a teen in the early 20s. Only Batman 2022, Top Gun Maverick, Smile, Scream VI, Halloween kills, Spider man No Way Home, and Puss In Boots 2 have been the only good movies that have come out in the 2020s
nah its always funny seeing portrayals of primitive tribes fighting and beating modern soliders, even funnier to think theyd have a chance against a phalanx formation
The reason Hollywood is making movies longer is probably because they figure the longer you are staring at the screen, the more chances for the programming has to take root in your mind.

Your point on how universally tangible lessons make movies great is so spot on. You can do movies with minority led casts, you can tell minority stories, but as soon as the lesson of these stories is to demean anyone who doesn't fit within that minority the story is a moot point. Personally, that's why Everything Everywhere All At Once did so well this year and it feels like one of the first true great Hollywood films in a long time. Because they're an example of doing a story correctly by evoking a universally relatable issue of parental rebellion and worrying about not having done enough with your life by way of the specific setting of an asian immigrant led laundromat. The setting to a great story should be niche, not your story's lesson.
Great analysis. Agree
Faith is literally ground breaking
While I don't entirely disagree with this, Hollywood has always changed historical narratives, the main difference between then and now is that they have always changed narratives to create American war propaganda and to make the US come out looking squeaky clean and heroic. Take Argo for instance, they make it look like the operation was all US lead, writing Canadian involvement almost entirely out of the movie. Americans changing history is not new. No big deal, but when you consider how people 'know' history because of what they 'learn' in movies it makes you think. They have always and will always make war propaganda first and foremost which makes me question the whole 'too woke' narrative as an over simplification. But personally I will always want to watch movies that are politically incorrect, shocking etc... But also, who is actually coming for Tropic Thunder, I have never heard of this... likely a small but loud group who don't get it.
Indeed. The sad feeling lately that it seems to be more fashionable to be safe and boring for the sake of appeasing the potential mobs that come out if you dare have a product that has even the slightest bit of offense. Indeed I too feel there have been very few movies from the last 5 years that I have really enjoyed because of it.
I never watched Tropic Thunder because I couldn't stand Ben Stiller. Now it seems like all the comedy actors I couldn't stand before are the based ones today, and now I must go watch Tropic Thunder just to stick it to the woke. 😎
