The theater:
Also breaking the chain of “all Asians are the same” by changing Noriko to Quyn, because the actress is Vietnamese not Japanese.
A gay Italian character who is not stereotyped.
A gay Arab character who is also not stereotyped.
Neither of them fetishized.
Both of them bad ass as fuck.
And they’re in one of the healthiest relationships, queer or not, I’ve ever seen in an action movie.
Two female leads, one of them Black, neither of them sexualized.
Not even ONCE.
Both of them bad ass as fuck.
And they both have space to be their own characters, with their own arcs.
Directed by a Black woman.
Edited by a Black woman.
Actual MAIN //obviously// Gay characters in a superhero/comic movie? (Not relegated to cameo status, take notes Marvel!)
I’m sorry I can’t shut up about this movie.
I’m just so fucking INTO everything it’s about!
(Edit: I was too excited to think while I wrote this and but now it’s doing numbers and everyone is yelling at me asking what the name of the movie is lol. It’s The Old Guard, it’s on Netflix and came out a week ago.)
Motherhood is not specific to a race or nation. There is no proper religion to follow in order to be a mother. Motherhood is above all else it’s very own Creed.
Little Girl Stands Up To The First Order In Galaxy’s Edge (x)
I loved this scene, it’s one of my faves after “Avengers...Assemble!”. BUT DO NOT GIVE THE RUSSOS PRAISE FOR IT.
We were promised “our first open lgbt character” and all we got was that five seconds of Joe Russo being an openly gay man. That? Is not what you hype up the community with. That? Was pathetic. They had the nerve to bait us with that sham of a “spoiler”!
As amazing as this scene was, it was still being used to pull the wool over eyes to “prove” that ‘HeY wE cAn Be InClUsIVE!’
I know the MCU is getting there, but that was atrocious.
In conclusion; GIVE US A FUCKING FEMALE AVENGERS MOVIE!
