What is wrong with having a show that appeals to boys/men, or having a strong male hero?
Thankfully I cancelled Netflix over a year ago, but of course I heard about the bait and switch which is pretty commonplace now. The shill websites are doing the usual fan attacks as well as praising the "stunning and brave" direction. One even called it a "radical reimaging". Netflix obviously should've just openly stated that it would be a show about Teela but they know there wouldn't be an audience for it (outside of the sycophants in media). They knew that people who grew up watching He-Man would want a show about He-Man. Although I would rather market to them because they would most likely have kids and buy merchandise, but it makes much more sense to market to blue haired feminists on twitter.
You would think what has happened with comic books over the last 7 years would wake some people up.
I'm glad Anime and Manga are doing well and I hope that Japan never bends the knee. I recently bought some Conan comic books and novels, as well as the complete Robert Howard collection. I know Netflix is doing a Conan show, but I am pretty sure he will be upstaged or he will learn everything from women.
But I will close with my question from above. What is wrong with having entertainment that appeals to boys/men? Or as Yellowflash put it "nothing wrong with having something that appeals to women/girls but why is it that something that generally appeals to men have to appeal to everybody"
There is nothing wrong with that. Which is why I strictly watch shows from the 70s and 80s, or even 60s and 90s, and at last resort the first 10 years of this century.
Same here. A while back I decided to only watch or read stuff from 2014 and prior. Unless someone I trust recommends it anything done now will be suspect. Look at mainstream sci-fi books.
One very rare exception to the rule is the movie Upgrade (2018). It's pretty badass and takes some nice twists.
The choreography is actually appropriate for the theme of the film; the action is visceral and it stars a straight-white male who isn't undercut, undermined, or subverted by any sort of woke nonsense.
It basically delivers the kind of (very hardcore) cyberpunk universe that CD Projekt SHOULD have made with CP 2077.
Thanks! I’ll check it out.
Can't recommend Upgrade enough. It's like an R-rated Venom. Even stars a dude who looks exactly like Tom Hardee.
That movie was hella fun and a surprise. Do recommend.
+1 for Upgrade 2018.
We've had the free Apple TV+ subscription for a year and I refused to even look at any of the original TV and Movie programming. Especially TV because these sick fags have a way to writing great stories in a few episodes before they piss all over them with faggy woke garbage.
One day I watched a WWII movie, "Greyhound", thinking, they can't faggy-woke WWII can they? I was pleasantly surprised. I watch the movie twice just to make sure it was as entertaining as I thought.
It took a while to venture out to try another one since I thought "Greyhound" probably slipped through the cracks. I tried "Cherry" with Tom Holland. Again, surprised, big time. They even had the opportunity to sneak in some faggy wokeness and they just didn't. That movie was good enough to watch twice.
So then I tried a TV show. The first one was "For All Mankind", an alternative universe story of the moon landing... bait and switch. It was great the first few episodes, but as the show went on, they forced more faggy woke garbage. I stopped watching it.
The last show I tried was "See", an apocalyptic story about a world 600 years after a virus (or vaccine?) left all mankind blind. It was, again, surprisingly unfaggy, but yeesh, the queen is the worst anti-Christian character I've ever seen. You are literally rooting for her to die. The rest of the show was excellent, but, as with all TV shows, I am await for The Switch, when all the world are fags and only women are wise.
We'll see.
