it is supposedly why the princess and the frog Disney movie did so poorly. They literally had to fill frozen full of whites and put it in snow for it to make up for the sales lost.

its because they did it for diversities sake and not because they had a good idea.

everyone like Ms Marvel for a long time, she was popular and then a little bit before Civil War 2, they changed her.

so long as the character is likable, it won't matter, such as with Kamala, but with all these other ones, especially Female Thor, they just aren't well written and its obvious that its all in the name of Social Justice and not good writing, and with so many books like this, it was bound to hit their bottom line

what a weasel to try and make it sound like the readers are just sexist/racist though, I'm sure that'll bring sales up.

Wow, what a shocker.

>princess and the frog Disney movie
the what?

Truly, a surprising turn of events.
Hey l hate WE WUZ as much as the other guy but the princess and the frog was an ok movie. Probably failed because 2d animation sells like shit after everything is CGI

that movie was just shit though

The Negress and the Frog, are you deaf?

Wow, that was a movie,

Literally even a game: youtu.be/y-ma95qj0U4?t=15m54s

Sup Forums/internet is raising the most redpilled generation in recent history. It's gonna be epic in the coming years to see the downfall of liberals insanity.

It would be funny if they made the movie cast all black Muslim handicapped women. Wonder how that'd affect their bottom line

Why does leftist propaganda only backfire on some industries and not others? Food seems to be safe to preach with, but movies and comics seem to be more criticized.

so this is what leftists talk about MUH FREE MARKET IS RACIST!!

nothing is more pathetic than a man at that level of power in a company whinging about bad sales and how its all the customer's fault.

>put it in snow for it to make up for the sales lost
reverse diversity
I like it

Fast food is like drugs. An addict doesn't care if they buy their heroin from a kiddie fiddler, long as they get their fix. Similarly, you don't care if you buy eleven times your daily dose of sugar in one packet of cookies from a (((megacorporation))) as long as you get that warm sugary rush.

hey The Princess and the Frog was one of the only better films that Disney produced in the last 2 decades. Its miles better than capeshit and 3d shit from Disney

>they just didn't want more female characters out there
>none of our failures can ever be our fault
It's shockingly obvious that marxism is the disorder that causes their behavior.

SJWs and Feminists buy food. They do not buy comics/video games.

Mostly white nerds by this shit what did they actually think was going to happen? lol

The same can be said in video games
Ex: Mass effect Andromeda, Yooka Laylee, etc
Shit doesn't help make sell

Thank you, you hit it right on the head. Diversity for diversity's sake is meaningless and unnecessary. It's not that people are sexist/racist, they just don't like propaganda invading their comics/movies/games. If you come up with a great female character, great, write it up, but 'female thor' is just stupid.

Yet it wont stop them from giving the consumer what they want.

They don't follow the free market, they continue to insult consumers who are white or male. Its like they're paid by the Globalists or are brainwashed or something.

That or people didn't like your forced diversity. People don't hate diversity, most places aren't pol. They just don't want diversity to be the only contributing factor to the stories and the development of characters.

Changing every major character to a black person or a woman or a black woman was not a basis for good storytelling. It just made you feel good about yourselves. Mixed it in with terrible, boring stories and pointless civil wars with no ramifications and you have your answer.

I don't hate diversity I just hate it being forced.

If you want to make a female/Nigger/autistic super hero fine.

Just make it original and make it good.

While swjs demand their views must be represented in comics and game, they themselves rarely buy those games and comics.
They soley buy legend of Zelda, if that.

success is what you make of it

>“What we heard was that people didn’t want any more diversity,” Gabriel told ICv2 at the Marvel Retailer summit. “They didn’t want female characters out there. That’s what we heard, whether we believe that or not.”

"People say they reject our diversity propaganda. Obviously they're lying."

I don't read comics, but I totally agree. there aren't that many homos or chicks reading comics. it's always that religious faggot who needs to escape the real world because his life is shit and comics help him cope and give him a false idea of what heaven will be like when he dies. if anything, comics needed more religious themes

>"I'm going to buy this to prove that I'm not a Nazi"

""creative"" people sure are stupid. it's pretty simple.
>diversity means people of different backgrounds and motivations coming together for a common good
>compelling and interesting, money is made
>diversity means people with no commonality obviously shoehorned together like on a middle school spanish textbook to fit an obvious ((((((agenda))))))
>not actually art, only a tool to deliver a political view, no one likes that dogshit

>Sup Forums/internet is raising the most redpilled generation in recent history.
It's true. Give it another 20 years and this generation will finally destroy every last trace of what's left of SJW faggotry.

In the process of moving, went through some old comics from my childhood...Savage sword off Conan...big muscular white dude destroying native warriors and taking the big breasted white women away over his shoulder to his tent to bang away while drinking his fill of wine.

That's how real comics were. Something any young man could look up to.

Marvel should be ashamed of themselves.

I wonder if anyone briefly thought about making them all brown or pitch black

I love how anything SJW/progressive in any kind of entertainment media is finally crumbling away financially, and people are REALLY starting to realize it now. Movies, comics, games... There are not enough liberal philanthropist shekels to keep this up for another 5 or so years. The free market will correct these arrogant fucks from shitting on their customers, and forever relegate them to small niches where they belong. It's happening, men. I've waited years for this. If Marvel of all companies is admitting this now, it really is fucking happening. I've waited for this for years now. Literally a decade of this crap and it's finally starting to really unravel.

kek

Out of curiosity i saw that new trailer for justice league.

Wonder woman, hispanic,
flash, asian
cyborg dude, black.

Wonderful.

It was bad enough with ben affleck being batman.

In 2016, total movie tickets sold in America is still lower than in 2006. (1.32 billion last year, compared with 1.4 billion a decade ago)

nobody want "without niggress there is no moon landing" shit show

nobody think nigress Guinevere or some mestizo Stacy are pretty

A movie theatre full of nogs makes it so you can't even hear the movie, not worth spending money on something you can't enjoy, 2 the movies are all shit ever since the 90's.

Why did they go for diversity in comics when neckbeard white males are the main audience?

Putting it into the movies makes sense, but shit like female Thor in comics is the dumbest fucking idea I've ever heard

Until they start making it taste like sperm, it doesn't change anything. I'm not consuming oreos as entertainment, I'm just consuming them.

Because it tastes the same even if it's faggot color.

Heres a better idea: STOP MAKING SHIT STORIES. EVERYTHING SINCE BATTLEWORLD HAS SUCKED. The only exception is spiderman.

DC movies have been so fucking disappointing, you have no idea how sad that makes me

Problem with Princess and the Frog was the underused Shadow Man. Here was a villain with the potential to be one of Disney's most charismatic, and they basically just wasted him.

This. Their target demographic is young nerdy white lads that wanted to live vicariously through the heros in their comics. They abandoned that demograohic and are shocked when they don't make sales, idiots.

Well, considering the story Frozen was loosely based on has a similar level of diversity and setting ...

because some of these brands have a long ass history in the US and people feel nostalgia towards them FOREVER. for instance when someone says COOKIE 99% of people think OREO. Same with soda 99% of people think either coca cola or pepsi and its 99% coca cola depending if you are a nigger or not. This goes for fast food and every other brand out there in the food industry. People just don't fucking care to much to just up and change.

What a marvelous timeline we have entered.

Sup Forums, Tiffany or Tiana?

>tfw cajun and really liked the movie

how about a comic about crusades?
if you really think its a good idea you should try it

They thought they could pick up new demographics. You gotta realize, the full cucking of comics was preceded by roughly a decade of libshits on blogs, forums, and social media moaning about how comics left so many people feeling unrepresented and how much many they'd make if they were more diverse.

Then the execs took them at face value and tried to pander to them, only to find they were all mouth and no money.

>nig nose on a white person

The person who made this didn't think this one through.

That was a great movie. Loved it.

Not an argument
Mass effect Andromeda literally did this shit and it fails big time visit Sup Forums some time if you want to know your Viydia

kill western comics

...

Having female or non-white chsracters isnt their problem. The problem is that their "diversity" is really hamfisted and forced.
Just taking a classic male character and making them female or black is shitty and uncreative.

It also becomes very obvious that there is a social/political agenda behind the work, and that constantly destroys any immersion or suspension of disbelief.


Also, I'm surprised anyone buys comic books these days, much less physical print versions.
Even growing up in the 90s I never knew anyone that read or collected them. My exposure to spiderman/batman/etc was entirely through videogames, films, and animated series'.

Fine, I'll check my own pun.

I appreciated it, user.

For the record he's not saying it in a "wow we sure were dumb" way. He's basically saying they underestimated what the market wanted i.e. the industry is full of bigots who don't want diversity. Marvel will never admit when they fuck up.

Wait so are you saying white people are really the ones with money and they hate being demonized in media so they spend their money elsewhere? omfg this is bigotry on the highest level. There should be a law against this. Force white people to buy diversity products or jail them for hate crimes.

Princess and the Frog was nice because the rich white girl was actually very sweet and kind and not a raging racist cunt like she probably would've been if the movie had been made in the last few years to highlight the purity of the po' black chillen.

i love this picture

>cyborg dude, black.
cyborg was always a nigger

This.

It's just lazy making an already established and beloved character a different ethnicity just for diversity's sake.

Make a brand new character that is intriguing and likeable and then make him non-white or whatever bs diversity demands.

>It's not our fault we tried to push a narrative! It's everyone else's because they didn't buy and support it!

Thanks, leaf. I'll spare you on the day of the rake. May you fertilize a stronger, less cucked maple tree.

Someone applied this analysis to tech companies - hiring done for diversity is that little bit less for merit (if they coincide then why mention diversity?)
I think the problem is though that tech is companies all going their own way, doing different enough things that a bit of diversity dulling won't change their competitiveness - they're each in their own landscape.

The nigger nose actually ruins it

Games, comics, and movies all revolve around story telling. Stories contain incredibly important lessons that reflect the wisdom of our culture. When one sullies the waters for their personal gain or that of their ideology, people feel it on a personal level.

Heroes are metaphysical distillations of a culture's most adimirable traits, to alter a culture's hero archetypes without reverence and grace is to engage in an evil act.

im fine with cyborg being a nigger

even though it makes no fucking sense. I his back story is he's just some dumbass football playing nigger. But then he gets a cyborg suit and suddenly he's a master of electronics and cyber systems etc even though he never spent 1 hot minute studying it or learning it.

Okay so fine whatever magic robo brain...but then he still speaks like a nigger constantly, does nigger shit 24/7. its like the robot part makes no damn effect on him its just 100% nigga instead of roughly 25% nigga like it should be.

The article says "Sales are dropping because no one wants to buy the new PC garbage."

But then they say "Even though that is true we are not going to stop making the series."

Why the fuck do they want to keep losing money?

And the comic where Captain America had his history rewritten to be a sleeper agent for an anchient nazi organization, is the best comic they've put out in years.

Besides CarnageMan.

Ikr

Marvel needs to try again. At some point the comic book market will get excited about diversity.

This. It's the EA strategy.
>push out garbage product
>blame customers to deflect criticism

Or maybe it's their godawful fucking writing and shitty jokes

This is true, but in an already failing medium, you'd think some of the meetings would have ended in the decision to just introduce some new diverse characters and see how things go for a while instead of jumping in the deep end and turning Thor into a girl and iron man into a black girl.

How do people who can't understand this basic shit manage to get through the day, much less run a company?

I stopped eating, oreos, burgerking, and skittles because of PC pandering. So it does have some impact. I also am from Sup Forums and I no longer buy big 2 comics or anything Disney related.

Jews who make interracial porn do so at a loss. Many porn stars who do interracial scenes experience a massive drop in fans and sales. Jews do it on purpose to pollute the society with interracial porn and try to convince people mixing with blacks is cool and hot and sexy and fuck white ppl and white babies let them go to hell and burn them and abort them.

The jews do this at a profit loss. Profit is the most important thing to the soul of a jew and they sacrifice this to destroy white civilization.

That should tell you something about the Jew.

Her rich white dad was pretty cool, too. Didn't really have a lot of stand-out characterization, but it was nice to see a fat, rich white guy in a white suit who wasn't the villain.

But he wasn't always the JL's token black guy.

He was the Teen Titan's token black guy, who DC just grafted onto the League because it wasn't dark enough.

The only good Cyborg design.

>Jews who make interracial porn do so at a loss

Do you have a citation for this?

There cannot be that many people who are bankrolling, producing, or directing in the bmwf interracial porn scene. Given the considerable talents of weaponized autism... what possibilities exist to surgically correct this problem?

Where does this claim come from? It's posted here all the time but seems unlikely people who are 'fans' of a porn star would care

well first off understanding electrics isn't too bad, there are plenty of sparky's that arent the strongest in brain but can wire up a house no probs. If you understand electornetics then understanding arcane japanese technology like microchips isn't a farcry.

This.

Jews are like Walmart. They come in to a nice small town with established mom & pop stores, undercut the living fuck out of them for a year or two, at a huge loss. Once the family shops have closed down due to this, Walmart jacks up the prices and reaps the rewards of their strategy.

Jews are waiting until America turns majority brown. Then they will reap the rewards of American soil ripe for the taking from the retarded shitskin masses, while enticing them with bare minimum gibs.

Imagine if Marvel went in the other direction: instead of SJW comics they put out Sup Forums comics.

> that is unfortunate.

Kek

Plenty of porn stars have come out and said it. Go on youtube and watch pornstar interviews. They also have to pay girls 6x the rate to do interracial. This is why so many do it at the end of their career.

That just about sums it up.

Their insanity rests on the ability to socially sanction those that disagree with them. Anonymous speech is killing them because only logic and reason works against user.

They spout the shit line they've spouted before countless times in public and get thrashed and don't know what to do but declare victory despite the loss since victory has always ensued irl where ad baculum arguments hold sway

>Wonder woman, hispanic,
Gal Gadot is an Israeli jew
>flash, asian
Ezra Miller is half Jewish and have Dutch
>cyborg dude, black.
Cyborg was always black.

So basically like this, if they only realized that what he's saying isn't bad just because Red Skull is saying it, and instead this is the moment where Red Skull became the good guy?

rare

They trapped themselves. Now if they stop making them they will be blasted from every angle for being sexist or racist. They will start boycott marvel hashtags and it's not worth it. At this point I guess they just have to finish up the series' and try to start some new ones without the propaganda.

I'm hesitant to give you any proof. To do the work of going to get it and showing you because you asked for a citation, THEN you described how it was impossible.

Which means you already have a firm view against jewish practices being negative and harmful to white civilizaiton. This leads me to believe you are a bluepill, a minority of some kind, a black, or worse still a Jew.

Why should I facilitate more strawman from you? You disgust me.

What happened to Moana?, lots of people were claiming that Moana could become to become the next Fronzen but for black people.

I know this is bait but....you're a faggot
