The MCU no longer wishes to make money, it has decided to go down with the ship of social justice and keep preaching at people until they cut Marvel out from their life. In many senses with all of its comments about quality over quantity and leaving the message behind Marvel has become like a drug addict telling you that this time they are off it for good, but by the way they need some money to eat can you help them out.
Now that Marvel is figuratively passed out in a gutter somewhere after injecting themselves with the last bits of social justice, critical race theory, pronoun nonsense and drag queens they can, we can assess the damage of the latest rampage, and talk about getting them committed.
Who was this show for? A comics character with several failed runs, who is notoriously unpopular and who has the charm of the previously mentioned drug addict if you refuse to give them some money. Of course Marvel thinks simply by making a show about a black character, and they use rap music to let you know it’s a black character, that the black audience will show up. However, I think most people know that even though Ryan Coogler is producing this show, Black Panther it is not. Throughout the whole show the black experience is stereotyped and put into boxes, the victim mentality of black excellence being kept down by whitey society is on full display and honestly it is just cringe. Riri is entitled and thinks she should get everything now and that is not how life works no matter your skin colour.
Moreover, by adding a drag queen to a show clearly aimed at young audiences, nothing particularly mature happens here, it highlights how once again Disney is trying to force sexuality onto young kids. Drag is inherently sexual and has no place on a show that kids could be watching. The fact there is a drag queen playing a villain in this show is yet another reason that the MCU deserves all the failure that is coming its way these days.
Dominque Thorne once again takes acting lessons from the Aliqua Cox school of acting which is to say she has no facial expression beyond looking like she is holding in a steamer for the whole time and has a personality so badly developed it is hard to call it anything other than one dimensional.
Overall, this is just garbage.
