    Am I the only one that thinks iron heart being in that movie is kinda… racist? Like they want us to say “LOOK A BLACK HERO!!!! IN A BLACK MOVIE!!!! YEAH YEAH MARVEL STEAL MY MONEY.” If you’re going to adapt ironheart have her be linked to Tony stark in an iron man movie or an Ironman type movie. Not the movie about trying to honor a man who died. It’s more racist to put her here. It would be like if miles morales was introduced with black panther in the comics despite being super different from being a city boy, who gains SPIDERMANS powers

    Yeah... This hurts. Social media has killed the legend of the movie star. But they wanted to believe people watched them because we loved them and afored them. No, we watched because they entertained us. Beyond that, I could care less about their personal life's, what they think, how they vote, etc. make good movies. Just make good movies. Thats it.

    I will say this in any comment section about star wars i see till it gains traction, if you want to revive and save star wars you need to make a R rated movie or mini series and it needs to be about the rise and fall of darth Reven, he is possibly the best and most untouched upon character that could easily save the franchise, however it needs to be un woke with a male lead and untill that can happen it should remain an idea, but ladies and gentlemen I present you a hypothetical star wars movie... " Rise" the Darth Reven story, if done right it could be an amazing trilogy 💯or it could have a name like " Darkness" the second could be called "will" and the third movie could be called "prevail" ... Anywho food for thought.

    Can you just see them back in the corporate offices with Kathleen Kennedy sitting at the head of the table, baffled over why this movie is going to totally FLOP like all the others they made? Shareholders and Press outside . . . already figured it out and waiting for a response. They're all shaking their heads going "but, but, but the power of maaaanny was such a great idea". Bob Iger absolutely LOVES his bubbly gay employees around the park, transgender staff, servants and "yes men". None of these Disney idiots can fathom the concept of "woke = broke" (because the Right has already risen).

    What my kids (13, 12 and 9) had to say about the Acolyte: "This isn't Star Wars!", "This is even worse than Ahsoka!", "These are like a copy of the witches of Dathomir! Couldn't they come up with something more original?". To me, it was very entertaining to observe their expressions as we watched the first episode... all three of them were disgusted by the show. Needless to say, we only watched the first and second episodes... no need to watch the rest🤮.

    This doesn't even feel like Dr. Strange's movie. It feels more way like Wanda's movie, and not only that, it was also poorly written and I felt like they rushed her into her death. Wanda's transition into Scarlet Witch was quite cool and they just had to not give it some time in the MCU before she dies. It wasn't even Dr. Strange who fought and defeated her, ultimately it was Scarlet Witch herself who unalived herself.. So I mean, why bother putting Dr. Strange name in the movie title then? I agree, it would have made much more sense if she decided to look for white vision instead of THIS.. and might as well just make it a Scarlet Witch movie instead of Dr. Strange's if they decide to underutilize him in what supposed to be his movie like this. I'm a bit pissed off because Wanda has always been one of my favorites and I like Dr. Strange as a character as well. But this movie is just messed up.

    Hulk has been disrespected since the beginning of the MCU... ignoring his svicide attempt, immediately whipping from vaguely acknowledging his suffering to making jokes about him. Plus turning the Hulk side of him from what feels more like an expression of trauma and his subconscious to a silly stupid creature. It makes me sad.
