Shitting on someone in a thread about the harassment they're getting makes you feel good?
...well...she's a celebrity so in the big picture, my comments don't matter.Shitting on someone in a thread about the harassment they're getting makes you feel good?
Dude it's just really weird to say you shit on her here for catharsis....well...she's a celebrity so in the big picture, my comments don't matter.
I'm poking fun at myself dude.Dude it's just really weird to say you shit on her here for catharsis.
Yeah considering Sam Jackson worked with her on her passion 'Unicorn' project tells me that she can't be that bad to work with.Which is particularly ironic because word on the street is that Larson is delightful to work with.
So is Kelly Tran. Look what happened with her....well...she's a celebrity so in the big picture, my comments don't matter.
People are just tired of all the "yeah she sucks BUT" posts in threads like this one and the one about Marie Kelly Tran getting harassed off the internet. No one cares that you think she sucks, and it's not relevant. Really just makes people question why you felt it was necessary to get your own hit in on her in a thread about constant harassment directed at her.
You got me lmao.So is Kelly Tran. Look what happened with her.
No one says you have to like her, and you are free to express that dislike, but it's simple tact to be mindful of where and how you express that dislike.
So. Do you think expressing that dislike in the way you did, here in this thread of her getting harassed, was the most tactful way of expressing that dislike?
You got me lmao.
I dunno...maybe I'll just learn to keep my exact personal thoughts to myself and try not to misplace them.
Right? If she went full pixie, she might even wear it better than GOAT Natalie Portman did.
In fairness, Captain Marvel feels like she's deliberately designed to attack fragile masculinity. She's the strongest avenger and she isn't shy or bashful about being the strongest avenger.
Which in my opinion is long past overdue and I'm happy to have it. Wonder Woman was great and Rey is fine as the protagonist of the ST, but both of them are protagonist that happen to be strong women and are trying to get through their stories like they are normal superhero stories. Captain Marvel feels like the first female hero that's written from the perspective of someone who knows they're gonna be super critical about the fact that a woman is powerful, and instead goes "You know what? Fuck you. Fuck you if you think I'm too powerful, fuck you if you think I am too 'aggressive' or that I should smile more. I'm gonna be a super power fantasy and then I'm gonna rub it in your face about it, because fuck you"
I think that's what I love about Captain Marvel more than anything. It's refreshing to have a female hero that doesn't just ignore fragile masculinity, but also mocks and belittles it.
Brie Larson's quotes that got far right people to hate on her are like... so mild.
It's incredible how sensitive conservatives are.
I need this in my life!Imagine the meltdowns if in a future movie Captain Marvel says
"Avengers Assemble."
These are the same people that go on and on and on and on about "outrage culture". Only outrage culture is insecure neckbeard fucks.
This "body language expert" from the article is the same that did several videos on Christine Blasey Ford during the Kavanaugh hearing. Looking at the channel it's everything you expect: criticising Pelosi, Schumer, AOC etc
These idiots eat that up, it's the most obvious propaganda.
Watch this and tell me this is an "expert"
The best is the little eye squint she does towards him after the axe flies into his hand.She had amazing screen presence in Avengers. Her very first shot, she looked so imposing. When Thor calls back the Hammer to try and scare her and she just stands there all cool, I was like wow, I need to see Captain Marvel.
I want an A force real bad at this point.I need this in my life!
Well, maybe not the meltdowns lol, but that moment would rule.

The flipside is that they've sacrificed her character in the process because there's really not much beyond that, expecially in EG.
So in the end she does feel like a character written for men, just not for titillating men or appeasing men but for bashing men (men fully deserving to be bashed), and while we may gleefully enjoy watching misoginists embarass themselves trying to fight back the CM phenomenon, I really do hope in the future Larson (who's an amazing actress) is allowed to work on the character in the same way Evans or Downey Jr were allowed to and not be stuck playing a political statement. Because honestly I want to be able to watch her movies with my daughters one day without having to tell them "She's not really a character for you, she's a character to rub it in the face of the bad men".
Edit: to better explain what I mean, it would be a shame if the character ended up being more about enraging a certain audience instead of pleasing another. We don't need to give those people so much attention. Make Carol about her fans, not her detractors. A power fantasy, not a revenge fantasy.

"Human equivalent to cottonmouth"?Catharsis.
I've seen interviews and she just seems so dry. The human equivalent to cottonmouth.
I'm stating it purely that even if I'm not a fan, I do support her opinions and the issues she's raising 100% which shows yknow its fine to be half and half on the matter and that I disprove HEAVILY of what those dipshit misogynists think.
We cool with that?
Sorry, but I don't buy it at all that she was written for the men who hate her in a way to taunt them. Big stretch.

Can always count on you to come up with a stupid take.The flipside is that they've sacrificed her character in the process because there's really not much beyond that, expecially in EG.

But why is she being held to a higher standard? I don't remember these types of complaints being lobbed at the other characters. She's had one movie and a few minutes of screentime in another.
The fuck is this..Catharsis.

I don't really see this, but I could be missing something.No, I don't mean it like that. But her initial arc was about her overcoming prejudice and social norms and all that, which is great and all, but it feels like before you can portray a powerful female character you need to pay the "misoginy tax" and make her story about overcoming uglyness and discrimination.
What I mean is that I hope in the future Carol will be able to develop as a character in stories that are about her, about her enemies, about the story itself and not about having to deflect or fight negative attention from idiots. Captain America and Thor and Iron Man had the luxury movies that were about their characters, not some metacommentary about their gender or its representation in media. She doesn't "owe" those people the attention, so to speak. Just let her be a character.
The same kind of person who uses "tf"?

Captain America had commentary on war propaganda...It's the opposite. Movies about Captain America never had to waste a second on metacommentary or deflecting attention from idiots. Her movies shouldn't either.
I'm speaking as a father her, but I wouldn't want my kid to watch Captain America and see a movie about Captain America, and then have my daughter watch Captain Marvel and have to go through metacommentary about uglyness she hopefully won't be exposed to.
Captain America had commentary on war propaganda...
What's next, you're going to to say Black Panyher sgouldnt have had commentary on racism or colonialism? The idea that Captain Marvel was done a disservice because the movie had something to say about sexism and misoginy is such an incredibly dumb take.
Most of these movies have had themes/ something to say on certain topics.
Ight yall weird pixie? Lmao I just think she looks amazing as hell with the short hairRight? If she went full pixie, she might even wear it better than GOAT Natalie Portman did.

You are making absolutely no sense.I think Black Panther is a good example of a movie that has meta commentary but is also fully about focusing on its audience and nobody else. Black Panther doesn't waste a single second of attention for the people who would inevitable hate Black Panther.
I really have no clue how someone can come away from this movie thinking "she does feel like a character written for men, just not for titillating men or appeasing men but for bashing men."
I mean, who leaves the movie thinking this??? I feel like you need serious ego or insecurity issues to actually walk out of this film and think, "they just wanted to make a men-bashing character."
I'm a father of a daughter, too, and I know she'll be exposed to a certain degree of that ugliness. I'm glad that the movie went out of its way to depict the systematic sexism that women have to deal with and what my kid has already experienced to some degree. There's a bit of that ugliness in your posts as well, as veiled as it is.
She's not a "man-bashing" character, but her origin story is definitely about overcoming prejudice and discrimination. She did, now I'd want her to be able to be portrayed in stories that are about her and not about what the world thinks about her, just that.
Who cares, this is about meIt's about her coming to terms with and confronting her emotional abuser
Did you know that a lot of women find that relateable?!
