This topic is extremely relevant to film production and marketing, because typically the selling point for movies like Homecoming has been "diversity." Lo and behold, it's dropping like a rock at the box office.
If you need to have your film hinge on the "diversity" of the cast, then it's not a film at all. It's eye-candy for a niche audience. And when you market it as such under the banner of a blue-chip franchise, then the franchise tanks, and people wonder why it did so.
I have no issue with diversity but if you're going to whitewash franchises unnecessarily, then you're better off making ORIGINAL SUPERHEROES. That's the dirty little secret behind Marxists that enter film or any artistic medium--they lack creativity.
Why can't they just cast for people are good for the role instead of looking at their skin color? Isn't that true equality?

Because it's the current year. They expect me to believe Queens 10 years ago isn't as diverse as it is now.

We need more diversity.
In fact, we need HELLA diversity, dig it?
When I see a 100% Latinx movie, I will know when diversity has finally been perfected.

Before I google, what the fuck is Latinx?

Problem is they're just remaking shit over and over. No one cared about two black guys and a Native in Predator because it was an original property.

Some SJW Latino shit.
Instead of Latino or Latina, it's Latinx.

Why not just "latin"? You dont say "americano" or "asiana"
Joshua Perry
Equality of opportunity and meritocracy is not the right kind of ideology for these darlings

Because they're idiots.

Half-mexican women in California universities invented the term "latinx" because they felt that "latino" and "latina" (along with all other gendered nouns) are oppressive, even though they're objectively useful.
I can only assume that these fake latinas don't actually speak Spanish, because if they did they would know that every fucking noun is gendered. What are they going to do, change them all to 'x' so I don't accidentally misgender my car?
Easton Long
Yh because Tom holland is an American from Queens

You can't show people how progressive you are by just saying 'latin', user.

Americans love diversity. Hollywood is in America. Ergo, expect more diversity in tv and movies.

Diversity is great. What isn't great is how companies pile into the bandwagon to make a buck and end up ruining what was originally a well intentioned movement.

How do you account for people who love disney movies that are fucking animated and looney tunes, tom and jerry, mickey mouse.

Diversity in 2017 goes like this:
>White actor playing non-white character >FUCK THIS! WHITEWASHING! OUTRAGE!
>Non-white actor playing white character >AWESOME! GENIUS! YASSS!
>Non-white actor playing non-white character >FUCK THIS! STEREOTYPING! OUTRAGE!
And it's only going to get worse. People are already crying they cast an Egyptian to play Jasmine in the live action Aladdin instead of an Arab. Wait in 10-15 years when they reboot Spiderman again with an Asian Miles Morales, and The Lizard is a Dominican man instead of the Brazilian man perfect for the role.

>dirty little secret about Marxists
Good post, but the secret is that they are natural born destroyers, and they'll keep rehashing capeshit grool to the masses, until the public turns on movies in general in about three or five years. The Marxists in Hollywood have seething disdain for Americans and will pollute our culture streams until its sewage. They can't help themselves though, like, they see it as hate-filled limbo. And Hollywood will never recover. If ur newfag, know that Disney's endgame is to supplant Western holidays with ones based on their properties, using Star Wars to supplant Christmas and thus Christ. Yeah, sounds crazy, but take a step back
Jose Reed
It's too late. Their media is too brainwashed now to accept anything less than radical transracialgenderism from entertainment.
They'll try to come around once Generation Z(yklon-B) begins to earn wages. But it will be too late. You don't come back from the redpill.
Michael Clark
Of course they're going to listen, left retards are the ones making the movies. Who do you think they're going to be prone to listening too?

America started losing power under Obama actually. His foreign policy was abysmal and entirely designed around ceding ground to other nations, which is why the rest of the world loved him.
Luke Reed

I really wonder what the plan is
Camden Parker
Not really. Comics are an original form of Jewish subversion. It's their strategy, to create so much low frequency content that white censors give up. Comics are a low form of art. They distracted white kids from classic literature, classic art, religion, etc. superheroes literally are a corrective to Christianty and its traditional foundation in America. And Jews embrace anything "underground" which allows them to work privately and squeeze shekels from unwitting youth. Comic book movies are just the end result, just as Israel has grown more powerful since the 50s

I'm sure that survey is as accurate as the ones they released during the election virtually guaranteeing a Hillary landslide
Kayden Reed

NOBODY paid 92% in taxes that's why it was lowered in the first place.
Grayson Martin
No, because most roles would be given to whites and spics.
Carson Lopez
The only problem with that is that they are leftist retards. They won't stop listening to themselves
Jack Lopez
Leftists aren't the ones making these movies, unless you think every billionaire studio head is a social justice warrior. They're entirely driven by profits and they see a more diverse cast as a way to attract more demographics in large numbers. They've been using this tactic ever since they cast Lando in Empre Strikes Back to try to get blacks to watch Star Wars.
Carter Thomas

Dominic Ramirez
The movie is sinking because it's a mediocre effort in a saturated market. People are not going to go watch something they know is bullshit when they have other choices.
Fembusters 2016 failed because it was shit. Spider-Man isnt doing well because it's mediocre. Wonder Woman did great because it's actually good

That's called virtue signaling, of course some of them will use their films diversity for political expediency, but it's disingenuous to think that these casting decisions weren't heavily focus-tested for maximum profits.

Any focus group could have told them his casting was a bad idea
Joseph Hill
Easter is still Christ based, which is why marvel/Disney exploits the idea of Resurrection with these characters. It normalizes resurrection in the minds of youth. It's really about mindshare of white normies, like those at Walmart. The amount of mindshare The New Testament has is shrinking, and Disney/Pixar/Marvel/Star Wars is replacing it. Star Wars is the big one. That's how they introduce their Esther messiahs, "pure" female warriors who destroy the patriarchy. Gal Gadot, same thing for DC. Millions of young girls worldwide inspired by the modern Esther. The Israeli messiah (literally the anti-Christ, since Jews disbelieve in Christ) will be female(s), possibly Ivanka, possibly not
Luis Lopez
Gender-neutral term for Latino/Latina invented by wealthy white Americans who believe they're the elected arbitrators of culture and are therefore justified in dictating other peoples' culture to them.
Sebastian Peterson
Diversity for diversity's sake is never good. People should've realized that long ago. It's not hard to write diverse characters that work without being hit over the head with social and political commentary. Write good black, hindi, philipino, muslim characters, cast them accordingly and nobody will ever bat an eye about their skin color. You'll be able to condition the audience to accept all ethnies. Doing what they did with Homecoming is a way to alienate people (not only whites) about this kind of stuff.
Nicholas Allen
It's just too much now, even for some normies. Too much forced diversity, brownwashing of white characters, and repeated forced white/black romance. That's why I torrented Homecoming instead of going to see it in theaters. I don't know how many people skipped it because of the casting but possibly a significant amount.
Other than that it was an great movie and he was an excellent Peter Parker. Just stop shoehorning blacks into white love interests. Peter had TWO black love interests (that were both white in the comics) and the villain had a black wife and black daughter. Enough already. Black/White couples are less than one percent of American couples according to the last census. Just stop forcing this shit on us. Disney has it in nearly every film they make these days. The new star wars with Finn (who was originally white until Abrams got ahold of the film), Thor and blackwashed Valkyrie in Ragnarok. Gamora with Peter Quill in GotG (yeah she's green, the actress is black). Peter Parker in Homecoming with two black girlfriends. In A Wrinkle In Time they changed the family of the main characters who have always been canonically white to a white dad with a black wife and a black daughter.
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Elsa is getting fucked by a Mexican in Frozen 2, Mary Poppins has a Muslim fiancee, Violet in Incredibles 2 has a black boyfriend, and Dumbo in the remake ends up in a romance with a gorilla.
They overplayed their hand. Even people who have never read stuff here are finally starting to pick up on it in real life. It's a lot like the election where you can make people too afraid or scared to tell pollsters they are voting for Trump by calling him Hitler on every news channel, but you can't control how they vote on election day. Well you can make people too afraid to say they are sick of forced black/white romantic leads and recasting of white roles as minorities, but you can't make them buy a ticket to your movie.
Fun fact that the wife of Jonathan Pollard, the Jew who was imprisoned for selling US nuke secrets to Israel, was named Esther, as was the murderous dwarf in the movie Orphan, which was oddly redpilled
