This fucking character was really annoying. I guess he is kind of appealing to latinos in US, but to be honest, during his last fight, when he goes all "cholo" against the Enchantress' brother, everybody in the theater started laughing. It was just really cringy.
Any other mexicans/latinamericans care to share their reactions?
He went ancient Aztec Fire God Aztec Skeleton. I was both spooked and awed.
Jonathan Nguyen
David Ayer makes it a point about featuring Latino/a characters in his movies so he wanted one for the SS. El Diablo is how deep they had to dig
Jordan Martin
People complaining about this movies black people, women, and Mexican need to understand something.
They aren't a representation of you. They represent street criminals that are black and hispanic. They represent slutty whores out there walking the streets commiting crimes. If you don't think they actually talk like that you need to visit the inner city of a major city.
Jayden Cook
Yeah, it was supposed to be Mictlantecutli, but really forced. I hate seeing aztec shit representing México, not because I hate it, but because is really lazy.
Robert Reed
>Mexican here. You should be gassed desu Most of the rest of LatAm is alright I guess though
Josiah Morris
Nobody gives a shit about the differences you pretend to have with others of the Leaf Blower Nation.
Michael Miller
Mexican here. The Aztec Mayan god thing was actually pretty cool. It sucks tho bc the only form of representation I see Mexicans get in major films are as cholos.
At least he didn't have to live for a shitty sequel.
Christopher Walker
>nly form of representation I see Mexicans get in major films are as cholos Yup, it was really dumb.

How bad IS Mexico? And why do you all keep coming here?
Blake Clark
My only annoyance with El Diablo's power-up (not knowing his background from the comics or anything) was that NOTHING hinted to him having Mesopotamian Ghost Rider as his evolved form. They could've had his reflection in a mirror or the bar glass be a cool flaming skull, anything.
Not that it wasn't cool, but it came outta nowhere.

Because we make way more money in the US than we do in Mexico. So we send money back to our families to improve their state of living.

They are fucking criminals not representatives in the UN. Why is it so hard for people to grasp this?

I get that, and that's chill. But why tho? I don't get why you guys can't make money there. Why doesn't the government address this?
Jack Foster
well you're really asking 2 questions there, I mean would I tell a mexican person the reason people dont take the seriously is because their country's a shithole and the all act like discount gangstas? sure I would why wouldnt I? would I go seek out a group of mexicans in their "hood", and say the same? no you fucking moron of course I wouldnt, some fucking common sense you cellulite ridden bright haired problem glassed landwhale
Jason Martinez
>trump is literally hitler >hillary drowning the middle east in blood is fine because she's a woman
Luis Wright
>I don't get why you guys can't make money there
Because they're people whose only skill is agriculture or some shit. Most mexicans do well here and due to the low prices or pretty much everything, the higher end of the middle class tend to have houses considered on the rich end of pretty much everywhere else.
Noah Baker

Eli Bennett
After the movie there were 4 Hispanic kids in the bathroom talking about how cool El Diablo was.
Anthony Rodriguez
none of that is true though, so why lie? also he didnt arm the arab spring and destabilize libya, syria, egypt and yemen, that's all hillary
Adam Nguyen
Mexican-american here. Went to local theater full of other various beaners. Everyone generally laughed at him and liked him ok.
I liked him ok. I've got nothing against being pandered to. Pander to me more white hollywood. Love me some cholo dudes. Hope he comes back to life and gets some chola gf.
Lucas Miller
>none of that is true why the fuck are you idiots impervious to facts? the slightest bit of research would drag you screaming from the pit of retardation you willingly dug yourself into
Wyatt Edwards
Arming the Arab Spring wasn't the problem, the problem was supporting the wrong people afterwards (Muslim Brotherhood) or not supporting them enough (Libya).

No mexican uses cringy. NICE TRY WHITEY
Cooper Mitchell
I was fine with the transformation. I just wish it had been hinted at earlier and that he did more. He just grabbed the incubus's arms. I wish they would've had a full on wrestling match.
The thing that made me cringe hard was his shitty pg-13 backstory.
*Diablo's wife throws some crap on the dinner table*
Diablo Wife: "You brought this into our house? Get out!"
Diablo: "Nah man ah ain't leavin mah own house!!"
*cut to overhead NOOOOO shot of Diablo cradling his wife in a room filled with tiny cg flames*

Glassy-eyed Boomerang: "AND THE KIDS??"
Me: "Holy shit what the fuck happened to this movie"

Don't adjectives (such as malo/bad) come AFTER nouns (such as diablo/devil) in the spanish language?
Or am I recalling my 7th grade spanish classes wrong?

Ayden Bell
Beaner here and he was honestly my favorite character
Isaiah Bell
Mexican here too. This brings up a good point in how Mexicans/Latinos are portrayed in, well fuck, everything. If a Mexican is in a kid's cartoon, it's always >CHIHUAHUAS, TACOS, SOMBREROS, CHURROS, PONCHOS, AYIYI, MI MAMA, MI PAPA, OLE! If it's live action, it's >generic gangster/cholo >EY HOLMES DO YU KNO WUT TURF YUR EEN?
It's fucking baffling how people will have a fucking aneurysm whenever a black character isn't portrayed as anything but perfect, yet Latinos are always a fucking joke.
Bane, a character based on a fucking luchadore, was played by a white dude in TDKR and no one batted an eye.
Joseph Sanders
>discount gangstas Ion know nigga. Them mother fuckers across that border chop niggas head off on camera. Niggas in the hood just walk up shoot and then leave. Then cry when they get caught.
We the discounts.

Today in Sup Forums:
It's a Sup Forums takeover!
Old Sup Forums faggots are right, we need to forbid live action media threads
Dylan Wilson
Not Mexican but grew up in Mexican neighborhood.
Yeah he's a bit of a stereotype but I grew up with tons of guys like this. I loved him. He felt authentic
Bentley Morgan

>It's fucking baffling how people will have a fucking aneurysm whenever a black character isn't portrayed as anything but perfect, yet Latinos are always a fucking joke.
Somehow...this comes back to blacks. It always just takes a full circle.
David Allen
What about the dude in Ant Man? I like that actor. Also I definitely saw people complain about the whitewashing of both Bane and Talia.
Connor Richardson
Well Bane is half white.
Alexander Cooper
No... Do you know what strawmanning is?
Aiden Miller
>It's fucking baffling how people will have a fucking aneurysm whenever a black character isn't portrayed as anything but perfect, yet Latinos are always a fucking joke.
I don't know man, people throw pissy fits at Latino characters too. As well as Asians. Your confirmation bias ensures you'll only pay attention to the ones bitching about the blacks.
Luis was great. I've heard some people on Sup Forums cry "WAAAHHHH STEREOTYPE!!!!" but dude, I have uncles that act like him to a T.
The loud minority, I suppose.
Ethan Barnes
FUCK U messicunt
Josiah Watson
>Bane, a character based on a fucking luchadore, was played by a white dude in TDKR and no one batted an eye.
People bitched about that nigga. People also bitched about that Asian dude in the Iron Fist comics and Iron Fist himself.
Henry Perez
Yeah, its when you create an imaginary person to complain about. But thats not the case at all as shown here
Dominic Morales
Benicio is another one that doesn't usually play stereotypes.
Jaxon Mitchell
Mesoamerican, friend. Mesopotamia's in the Middle East.

Examples? I see a lot of them as cops n shiet on live action shows as protagonists
Jackson Martinez
maybe if your community gets organized, protest and actually fight against these stereotypes, instead of this passive aggressive bullshit you're doing. MAYBE just maybe people will start to give a shit about a mexican's opinions.
Justin Cooper
It's not a stereotype at all. Its how a Mexican gangster behaves. Thats actually incredibly racist to see someone the same race as you and assume they should behave like you.
Gabriel Garcia
>People complaining about this movies black people, women, and Mexican need to understand something. >They aren't a representation of you. They represent street criminals that are black and hispanic. I don't see anybody complaining.

Jeremiah Barnes
I hate mexicans, hell, most latinos hate mexicans, so we don't care.
Kevin Phillips
I literally pointed out someone complaining about just that in that post. Are you even reading it?
Caleb Parker
Chilean here and i think you're full of shit El diablo was awesome > when he goes all "cholo" against the Enchantress' brother, everybody in the theater started laughing. It was just really cringy. You were expecting a well educated prisoner?
Justin Lewis
Yeah, El Diablo is a pretty normal SS member, idk what that guy was talking about digging for.
Brayden Diaz
I do absolutely think he could've gotten more development prior, but I don't think they needed to hint at his skeleton form beforehand. I think the point of it was that he never really went all out, so he never even knew he had a skeleton inside him. What they could have done was drop more hints that his powers were unholy/supernatural in some way. While he himself says something about being cursed by the devil, it's hard to tell whether that's what it actually is, or whether he just believes that. Would have been cool to see another supernatural character like Enchantress react to him in a certain way earlier on.
Nathan Davis
i thought this was an Amanda Bynes parody
Evan Jackson
>if you dislike one thing, that means you like another thing by default
Joshua Powell
It's not really something to fight about. Hispanics have a certain reputation in this country and we're all just sitting back and not letting it bother us. I'm bitching because this is Sup Forums and it's fun.
>examples Huh... You just made me realized I can't remember the last time I've seen a live action tv show... Uhhh Breaking Bad. In 6 seasons there wasn't one Latino character portrayed in a good light, idunno dude.
Caleb Turner
I didn't say anything negative about Xavier, my dude. That shit's my jam, chompsky honk.
Samuel Long
I'm latino. A los oficiales mexicans friends. Everybody here loves El Diablo.
Justin Ortiz
Well he's a fictional character and because of this he can be written any kind of way.
Aiden Brooks
>its fun
cant argue with that
Jack White
Natives or poo in loo?
Grayson Wilson
actual mexican here, you are a fucking puto, un pinchi pendejo, he was one of the best characters in the movie and was fucking badass.
vete a chupar verga que es lo que sabes hacer.
Justin Morales
I found him cringy just how I find low life criminals cringy in real life. His portrayal was pretty realistic tho, cholos are literally just like him.
Elijah Anderson
It's hard to say if that was supposed to be his evolved form, or just shit he came up with himself to be more intimidating for his enemies. His powers are from Hell, not the Aztec.
James Anderson
Bane has always been pretty pale though hasn't the?
Cameron Cook
>At least he didn't have to live for a shitty sequel. He dies and comes back to life all the time, it's part of his power set.
Robert Sullivan
there are pale hispanics.
William Murphy
IIRC when boomerang was making fun of him. Diablo waved his hand and the fire skull did appear.
Andrew King
Are they? They looked pretty Aztec. And even his own story could support it. He became more powerful as his influence grew because everybody his gang bangers killed would count as sacrifices in his name.
Oliver Rodriguez
I mean it doesnt make much difference who plays him as long as he is roughly the right colour. His face is covered the whole time anyway. Plus isnt he like some sort of arab in that movie?
Kayden Russell
The Devil probably doesn't mind making him a cool Mexican fire skeleton.
Jackson Powell
Actually, in the comics, it's some kind of minor demon.
Levi Moore
Mexican here, it was pretty bad. White people, just imagine a juggalo that keeps going "WHOOP WHOOP" and turns into Benjamin Franklin at the end.
Elijah Nguyen
Is Ayer latino?
Austin Stewart
Mexican from where? Cause anyone from the city knows Mexican's that do talk like that you fucking fag.
Im sick of you fucking townies thinking you know shit about how criminals act and behave.
