Why is the strongest Amazon a skeleton?

They rape sailors to keep their population steady.

Amazons are a mythical tribe
Who cares

>of all the stupid shit in that pic OP gets triggered by the color of skin
desu I am laughing senpai.

Because the women of Themyscira are an amalgam of all strong women from all cultures.

There's actually a comic book ongoing that's exploring this exact thing you're talking about.

(((diversity)))

>Sup Forums sjws crying about problematic movies
>AGAIN

Gal Gadot is still awful no matter how much you want to deflect from that.

WTF are u racist. POC have been around since the dawn of men. Look at Thor, based on Norwegian mythology.

THEY WUZ QWUANZ N SHIEET

yeah, totally something new
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nubia_(comics)

I'd pay $100 per ticket if Grace damn Jones played WW in the upcoming movie

So we some kinda justice league?

'Cause WE WUZ GREEKZ.

And before anyone brings it up, yes, the Amazons were mythical, but we learned about them through Greek writting. Most historians put them either somewhere around Romania, or somewhere around Asia Minor, which was occupied by Greek Tribes at the time. So Black Amazons make no sense other than "muh diversity".

Hell, motherfuckers are making Achilles black. Achilles. Black. Just think about that.

smacks nigger lips

No SAE wymon?

>but we learned about them through Greek writting
No this is a comic book version of Amazons. You might notice other difference as well.
You're just an offended crybaby.

I bet you never read whatever ancient text talks about the amazons anyway. Fucking sjws.

>Why are there black Amazons?
Because according to Thymoetas and latter Diodorus Siculus the Amazons came from Lybia. These Amazons started from Libya passed through Egypt and Syria, and stopped at the Caïcus in Aeolis, near which they founded several cities.

This was probably the mythological background taken.

According to Aeschylus however, the original habitat of the Amazons was around the Azov sea in Russia.

Sup Forums SJWS BTFO

user, comic book Amazons were always Hellenistic. The only black ones were Nubia, which was part of some, well, Nubian tribe of Amazons, and a general. That's it. And that's just the canon. AUs have the Amazons be Greeks entirely, fleeing from Greece and finding Paradise Island.

Themysciran Amazons are Hellenized/Greek. So yeah, take your nig nong Amazons and stuff them up your butthole.

Instead of putting blacks where they don't belong, howzabout you SJWs pushing for an Icon, Blue Marvel, Static, Spawn, etc, etc movie?

fuck you and your wisdom!

Because the Greek ones are quite different from the comic books ones. Amazon is used in the context of it meaning "female warriors."

There were black ones in the animated show so it's all good. I wish they black wash Lex Luther and Green Lantern like in the show too.

DCAU Lex was modeled after Telly Savalas/Blofeld who was Greek, user. BTFO with your blackwashing.

And John Stewart was a different character than Hal Jordan, not a blackwash.

>calling your villain John Stewart
Rly mks m thnk

John Stewart was the Green Lantern user.

I know he wasn't actually black, but the grand majority of people thought he was anyway because of his voice so he may as well have just been a light skinned.

The voice actor was white as well. Seriously, this meme needs to die. DCAU Lex was a Greek-American if you want to pinpoint his ancestry, end of story.

I hope you're pretending and not actually this retarded.

But he sounded like he was black with the creamy smooth deep voice, hence the confusion. That's all that matters.

>but the grand majority of people thought he was anyway

You have zero proof of that, so don't say it as if it's common knowledge.

Were the amazons not meant to be the peak of beauty

>But he sounded like he was black

At this point you're just backpedaling/trolling and should just stop trying, it's embarrassing how stupid you come off, seriously.

I didn't even think of that when I was grewing up watching DC Animated Lex Luthor.

>White Voice Actor
>Based on a White Actor
>White in the Source Material

AYO, HEZ VOICE SOUNDED BLACK YO! WE WUZ LUTHOR N' SHEIT!

I only have anecdotal evidence from experiences on the internet (Sup Forums in particular) and in real life (literally all my friends that he was black and are shocked when I tell them he was supposed to be greek).

You can't really prove otherwise though either. It just seems extremely likely given the truth is treated as a relevlation usually.

...

why do you insecure autistic white boys post here every time you're triggered

fuck off to your containment board

It's interesting how triggered you getting. If it makes you feel any better, I personally wouldn't like it if they made Luther non-white in a live action movie.

When the fuck is Anglowashing going to stop in my movies! Wonder Woman should have been a brown eyed, dark haired, Greek beauty! Instead we're getting this dumb whore with a dumb whore name!

>muh horseshoe

Why do they have to use space rope?
Is there no more regular ropes left in the future?

I just can't take this movie seriously, at all. It literally looks like girls trying to play hero, the way they run, the way they strike, the way they try to act... idk. I was hoping for a good film, you can definitely make fierce amazon warriors right, but this movie isn't it

idk how it is in the movie, but in the comics(last I check) the Amazons are lost souls from all over the world that the Gods brought back to life. there's even Asian Amazons.

what puzzles me is, who is that man to the left of the Black Amazon?

She's an exchange Amazon from Lesbos.

wew lad

Not gonna watch WW, that's for sure.
/r/pussypassdenied

the fuck

>Sup Forums ruins board with shit bait
>redditors flock to it and whinge about muh Sup Forums
>they stay in the thread until it's deleted/archived
really makes you think

A mythical tribe from the crimea

>He's black because his voice is deep and his skin is brown
By your logic superman is also black in that series.

Blue eyes ain't that uncommon amongst Greeks to be honest. But yeah, Gadot ain't what I pictured.

>Implying comicbook Amazon's are the same as "real" Amazons
It's like complaining that marvels Thor isn't exactly the same as Norse mythology describes him

> Wonder Woman should have been a brown eyed, dark haired,

That's what Gal Gadot is though

WE

She's a Jew, user! A fucking JEW!

>88

wtf do you have a problem with jews or something?!

Because the number of people who won't see a movie because it has black people in it is lower than the number of people who won't see a movie if it is "racist"(and by racist I mean that people have accused it of being racist before it is released and effectively turning the brand toxic to the point that half the advertising budget is effectively wasted).

So Hollywood accommodates the larger group of intolerant people to maximise profits. Beauty and the Beast was set in France and the town was full of black people and half the Beast's servants were black when they turned back into "humans".

Some more information on the Dictatorship of the Minority if you've got some time to read:
medium.com/incerto/the-most-intolerant-wins-the-dictatorship-of-the-small-minority-3f1f83ce4e15

Wonder Woman and her are the only Amazons made of clay.

>Says they're doing it to appease the majority
>Calls it dictatorship of the minority
Huh.

Both groups are minorities but one minority group can poison the public perception of a film and the other can't. Thus a minority dictates the terms to the majority.

Kind of like how PETA ruined "A Dogs Purpose" with their bullshit "Dog Drowning" video which was doctored to fuck and back.

uhhh problematic much?

don't know if this is counterbait but you literally posted something that originated from a tumblr blog
nice

>hmm but whats her origin story? what makes her a real hero!?
>she fought the EBUL NATZHEEZ
>Brilliant! :)

Because niggers have to be in fucking everything nowadays

Jews don't consider themselves white

There were some Black Greeks in the Young Hercules T.V. show, I think Theseus was black in the T.V. show. You're complaining about Black Amazons? There were some Black Amazons in History: missedinhistory.com/podcasts/the-amazons-of-dahomey.htm. Not to mention that the Ancient Greeks went to some African country and studied with people who were called Kemets, looking at the article and skimming through it, the Kemet culture is known to modern day people as Egyptian culture: history.howstuffworks.com/history-vs-myth/greek-philosophers-african-tribes.htm

Shes a cute i tell you, a cute!

>>mfw I am 29 and I just learned that cartoon Lex isn't supposed to be black

mind blown

>nigger amazonians

the jews did this

Why are there black USA presidents?

North Africans were never blacks though

amazonians lived on an island between europe and africa so its not unreasonable to believe that their citizenry would have a large presence of castoffs from other various tribes.

Because they are Nubian

That abducted men on boats to rape, I'm sure niggers in their natural state as slaves were at least a few of those

not sure if the movie is the same but in the comics all the amazons were created by the female gods to protect the earth and in order to protect the entire earth they were not all one ethnicity. over time due to disagreements among the amazons they split apart so the white/greek amazons remained on the island while the dark skinned amazons moved to the middle east

>so its not unreasonable

Nigs never lived in north Africa you idiot redditer, it was Arab, Berber and Phoenician territory

Jesus

There were never black slaves, mercenaries and merchants in north africa because Sup Forums told me so :)

>user, comic book Amazons were always Hellenistic. The only black ones were Nubia, which was part of some, well, Nubian tribe of Amazons, and a general. That's it. And that's just the canon.

Come on, we've seen black Amazons in post-crisis comics before. The whole Nubiabeing made from dark clay thing is something so old it hasn't been relevant since long before most of the posters here where born.

Because white trash start acting like faggots when they see diversity on film.

wHAT YOU FUCKING FAGGOTS SHOULD COMPLAIN ABOUT, is why do the sjw only care about black people in their diversity cause.

Where is the latina, the asian, the native, etc, amazon?

Faggot.

>Why are there black Amazons?
Why are there an island of women KYS faggot ?

kys or git dox'd cuckboi

>SJWs complaining there are no black people outside the island
>Sup Forums complaining there are black people on the island

They are supposed to represent all women across the globe but happen to live in crimea. They are magic-based

...

>The only black ones were Nubia, which was part of some, well, Nubian tribe of Amazons, and a general.

Phillipus

>Sup Forums
Leave, Sup Forums tourist
We forced Sup Forums to join our crusade against elber in thor

jews and blacks cast as a mythical Aryan tribe, kek. that's some hardcore kanging there

Who's the majority though? What do they think?

Does heels give you advantage in the battle?

You and your "friends" are morons and it ain't no revelation

>See women
>Complain

Sup Forums faggots are gay

And you wonder why women hate you

The high ground

>disgusting mutt on the left
Get some taste, Sup Forums

idk I don't know anything about this capeshit character besides that she specifically was brought to life by Zeus (uttered in the trailer)

Haha what if somebody smashed. A banana cream pie into his face while he was tied up haha what do you think he would do? How would you even BRRRRT react in such a situation?

He wasn't even thinking of Brainiac, in fact, he was just happy that he had saved the day together with his bro Batman.

Then... Wonder Woman showed up and talked with Superman about Brainiac, with Superman understanding right there and then that she meant they needed to off him. Since that's the only thing she asks of him. That's when Superman changed his behavior and went back into the Regime program.

Better to have no taste than to have shit taste you've gotten from licking male ass
