i don't really see how that's any different from any other 'marvel movie bad' take but with some faux wokeness stapled on but ok
Well good luck having people who don't watch it because of that somehow hearing the explanation
So Gal is not considered a minority? Are Israelis not middle eastern?
That doesn't preclude her from being white. As for her being Middle Eastern, imo she isn't but if someone wants to make the argument that Israelis are ME, I'm willing to listen.
They made the eyes more like an anime puppy dog compared to the first trailer. Its a fix to make it less off putting but I wouldn't call what they did "toned down". Cameron wanted his aesthetic critics be damned.
I feel like they aren't saying Marvel movies are bad or claiming to be woke. It's a piece on the state of the industry and what audiences want. The audiences have shown interest in big budget movies within "shared universes" and the studios have followed through on that to absurd extents.
Actually for me it was more than that. I mean that was definitely a factor but it just looks like more of the same lethal killing/fighting thing/person/weapon looks like this unassuming thing because movie reasons. That and being based on an anime meant that it was very likely going to have some ridiculous plot.

Irrelevant when audiences don't care to find out once already too repelled to even go see it, not to mention it being
That. The movie had to make up a reason to justify what was ultimately a misguided artistic decision that resulted from being entirely too literal in interpreting the source material.
Without getting into a long debate over race and ethnicity, Israelis descended from a significant portion of European Jews are indeed white in an American lens of race.
