I thought we established a couple pages back that Megan Fox is playing a black character. It's called acting, Cardboard Box A. Like when normal people are cast as a retard.

SALT CURES HAM posted:And this is a really really dumb thing to say. There are plenty of lower-class characters, even within Star Wars itself, that are perfectly well-liked. For example, Han Solo's entire characterization for a lot of the original trilogy is "lower-class lout," and he's one of the most iconic characters in all of cinema. The problem with Jar-Jar is that not only is he lower-class, but his mannerisms are straight up irritating, and he comes off as a transparent attempt to get more little kids in the theater and sell more toys. quote:Off the top of my head, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Emily Blunt, Eva Green, Anna Kendrick, and Emilia Clarke would have all probably been better choices for her role, and that's arbitrarily limiting myself to natural brunettes. Taking that limitation away, Brie Larson and Emma Stone come to mind. I didn't have issue with Fox until this, now I'm sad it wasn't any of the listed. HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Luke was a geek. Han was effortlessly cool. Even being very young not giving a poo poo seems cooler, laser sword or no. Also on the Lone Solo concept, Chewbacca was Native American. He was literally just Tonto, and it's esp apparent when you find out Endor was supposed to be where the Wookies were from, and Ewoks were a late production change. Even the bandolier/sash is a common aboriginal garb. http://i.imgur.com/WEIjtmC.jpg Stormageddon fucked around with this message at 09:51 on Jun 18, 2014 |

Maybe the last dozen pages have confused me but is the new TMNT movie set in the Star Wars universes or is everybody dancing around the issue of "they kinda look like black guys" by using Jar-Jar Binks as a shield to avoid people saying "You're racist because you think they look black"

I hope that, when the Power Rangers movie is on the verge of coming out a few years down the road, that the generation that grew up watching it collectively realizes just how goofy it is to be so affected by a TV show made to sell toys to 8 year olds and don't complain about our childhoods being ruined, because between this, Transformers, and whatever other movie properties from the 80s came out and weren't "reverential" or whatever to the source material, it makes me think that people who came of age in the 80s had lovely childhoods.

I'd say Freddy Krueger's influence is felt more than Edward Scissorhands. I think it looks good. He's a Shredder. He should look like he can shred. Maybe he's excellent at all forms of shredding, like he's a master snowboarder and kick-rear end guitarist.

See this is what I want, I want them to just be loving stupid, because as much as I love the turtles, they're so loving stupid. Like, literally every version, especially the grim dark comic original, was so stupid and full of stupid villains and plots. poo poo yes give me a Shredder who looks like he's wearing a suit literally made of knives, that's the exact 'respect' a ninja warlord with blade arms who calls himself 'The Shredder' and leads the 'foot clan' deserves.

What the gently caress did people expect a villain named "The Shredder" to look like in the year 2014? I think he looks great. The armor looks much more samurai inspired than it did in the concept artwork. And that's why I don't get the comparisons to the Transformers. Someone on another board said his mask looks like Megatron's face but it just looks like an over the top samurai mask to me. Of all the stuff to complain about in this movie, the Shredder armor is near the bottom. Wait till you see how Splinter looks

hypersleep posted:What the gently caress did people expect a villain named "The Shredder" to look like in the year 2014? Like I said, the armor itself is not an issue for me. The gauntlet blades however look loving ridiculous. It seriously just looks like he welded some lawnmower blades on and said "Close enough." The rest has a kind of deadly elegance in its own way, but those loving things are just silly.
