The Nerd Thread (comics, movies, anime, cartoons, video games, lore, fun stuff, ect.)

Translation: “We don’t want to upset the bigoted white neo-nazis who are trying to brainwash their kids to hate trans people. They’ll buy any kind of slop we put out, as long as we don’t show a bi flag or give female characters short blue hair, so we obviously don’t want to lose that precious money of theirs!”

Fuck off with that bullshit, Disney.

@Penguin Dragneel
I think it’s because they want to sell it to China but that’s probably the reason too.

@Penguin Dragneel
To distract you from that fact, Buy our limited pride month merch cause we still need your money.

@Penguin Dragneel
Its funny how Disney is fine having movies teach kids about serious topics like death and racism at an early age, but “sometimes a boy can feel like a girl, and a girl can feel like a boy, and that’s ok” is apparently too much for them 😒

A nice thought, but Pixar’s statement on why they axed the trans storyline was directly at American families, saying it’s because it’s a subject parents want to discuss with their kids “on their own terms and timeline.”

In other words, they fear a domestic boycott due to the escalating backlash to trans visibility and rights in the US.

@BlitztheDragon
“On their own terms and timeline” Coming out lore is real!

Also, “escalating backlash to trans visibility and rights in the US”? That’s a thing?

Tintin also goes public domain next year.
Shit, that means we’re getting crappy horror movies before a sequel to the spielberg movie

The ‘CLAYFACE’ movie is being described as DC’s version of ‘THE FLY’

Well that’s going to be interesting

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
First impressions of the Lex Luthor are already so much better than bloody “junior”

@Butters Stotch
Yep and there multiple hatred- hatred toward tran due to a boogie man that someone told, hatred toward due people and hatred due to clashing ideal on what it means to be trans. There also fear of Trans community falling apart due to bigots coming in and slandering them and when combine with the latter hatred, it create dangerous cocktail.

@northern haste
I thought this was Agent 47 for a second.

Honestly, I wonder, would Zack Snyder be a good director for the Gunn-verse? Maybe merge both of their verses into one?

@northern haste
It’s a double edged sword, sadly.

James Gunn is all about making his movies fun and colorful. Zack Snyder is all about making his movies anti-fun and dull sepia.

I’ve mellowed out over Snyder over the years. He has good films and bad films just like every other director and not all of his movies are actually bad. I just wish his fans would shut up everytime a new DC movie gets released.

“Brightburn” and “Movie 43” have entered the chat

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
Kind of ironic he did Brightburn before doing Superman.

Brightburn’s mask did have more color than the entirety of Snyder’s movie catalogue though.

@Butters Stotch
I’m sorry but you can’t defend someone who thinks it would be cool to have Batman get prison raped to me.
Also Luke Skywalker going by a scene in Rebel Moon.

@Darth Prime
What? Seriously? Nevermind, James Gunn is miles better.

Finally after a quarter century we might actually get a good Superman movie.

@Dustcan
Aight now ur just baiting :p

Also I’m one of the few people here who genuinely wnjoy his films lol. Do agree that a lot of his fanbase is annoying

I am being as cereal as I always am.

Or as hungry.
