Though I enjoy Marvel movies it is about an alternate and godless reality. The superheros are God replacements so I may watch but I’m usually offended by many aspects.

Completely different situation. Gomer Pyle, the character, was never gay.

Today, the "gayness" is the whole point. And you must know about the "gayness". It is more important than anything else the character says or does. "Gayness" is superior to straightness.

The Left is “training up the children”, as usual.

So the Marvel Universe is becoming the PC Universe. Thank god its going to die! Lucas & Lee have done more to ruin movies then anyone else. Sick of Star Wars and anything that idiot has drawn. Disney bought duds!

Boycotting this franchise will be no big loss. The movies are for adolescents — 50 year-old adolescents.

“When a Marvel movie features a hero who is a born-again Christian..”

I read that they are thinking about introducing a Muslim “super-hero,” possibly in the next Captain Marvel movie. They will if Brie Larson get what she wants. Haven’t read anything about having one who is a devout Christian.

Fox pretty much completed a New Mutants movie. I don’t know about the movie, but in the comics they had Cannonball, Sam Guthrie, who was Christian. I’m hard-pressed to remember in others in the comics...and I have about 20,000 of them.

sadly, if that were well done - and especially if it could be artfully folded into the weird metaphysics and cosmology of the Marvel Universe - that would actually be not only fascinating, but profitable.

More likely, and to your point, will be a peace-loving, wise, contemplative and joyful muslim who will be forced to fight (because of course he’s peace loving) evil Christians who just want to destroy all things and who are racist.....

"Body positive"? Is that PC-code for "fat and ugly'?

I'm sure I could manage to keep up with these people, but--frankly--why bother?

So they will have Body inclusive characters, I can guess what that means. Looks like they will end up destroying the franchises. People go to films for escapism and entertainment, not to be told what to do and think.

I have pretty much burned out on Comic book and fantasy Sci-fi films. I finally saw Avengers Infinity War free on Netflix and thought it too long and with too many characters. I understand the new film is even longer with even more characters. Sounds too complicated.

This is one thing I’ve enjoyed about the “Incredibles” movies. Except for having superpowers they are a normal family with all the glitches and love each other. There are some good family values displayed without being preachy or pushing some agenda.

Marvel got rid of Peter Parker’s glasses because they made him look like a geeky dork.

This is fake virtue signaling on behalf of pederasts in Hollywood, homosexuals, transvestites, and obese feminazis.

MARVEL

Gay is normal. Normal is queer.

Fat is normal. Normal is ugly.

Actually, instead, Disney is selling abuse.

“Because we at the Walt Disney Company no longer care about shareholder value, and willingly sacrifice millions or billions of dollars so that we can virtue signal to loud, whiny people who don’t watch our movies.”

ABC/Disney appears to have had a mandate to make non-heterosexual characters required in virtually every series. Even “Fresh Off The Boat” got their main female high schooler next door to change to lesbian, and got the main character, who had been infatuated with her since the beginning, to be okay with that and help her get attention from a barista at a coffee house in a subsequent episode.

In series after series across all networks, for every five to six seemingly straight characters, at least one crooked gender person wound up existing.

That is a much higher percentage of the population being represented than exists in real life.
