It's an irrelevant teen character who put on a costume in an anniversary issue and not Steve Rogers as some headlines frame it as. There's nothing saying this character's going to be replacing him as the main character and it's certainly not a reboot. If you'd want to be bothered by anything, it should probably be clickbait headlines causing unnecessary controversy followed by people complaining about controversy they fanned the flames of.

"Captain America of the Railways" makes me think of the original, uncensored lyrics of Big Rock Candy Mountain, which are a warning not to run away and ride the rails because you'll be raped by hobos.

"The punk rolled up his big blue eyes And said to the jocker, "Sandy,
I've hiked and hiked and wandered too, But I ain't seen any candy.
I've hiked and hiked till my feet are sore
And I'll be damned if I hike any more
To be buggered sore like a hobo's whore In the Big Rock Candy Mountains."

At this point in the lifespan of the current Western comic book industry, I can't bring myself to get mad because this amounts to a pathetic death rattle. One last virtue signal to get the woke culture warriors to actually spend money in the spaces that they cannibalize. Fat chance.

But back in 2014 this would be another entry in a vein of characters that I think got inspired by Miles Morales, blatant 1-to-1 woke foils for popular established characters dressed up as blatant strawmen. If he wouldn't have gotten his own rebooted-every-six-months-because-nobody-buys-it comic book, he'd be tagging along in Cap's books to tell him how terrible and useless he is, or both. Miles Morales being genuinely popular spun into Iron Heart, Nu-Hawkeye, a whole slew of zoomer themed X-men groups, an entire wing of Marvel content turned into a personal dress down of your favorite characters.

Centering this kind of content and pandering to the people who write it is part of what crashed the superhero comic industry. Even as the whole thing is burning around them, they can't give it up. Ten years ago it would have made me livid but now it's just funny. And a little bit sad.

See, I liked Miles because he was his own character, and not just some woke reboot of Peter. He lived a different life from Peter.

1. Both of his parents were alive. Peter’s were dead.

2. He had powers Peter didn’t; camouflage and a Venom Blast.

3. His uncle was a supervillain who wanted to exploit him in the comics.

4. He got blessing to be Spider-Man from an alternate version of Peter Parker.

These are some things that Miles his own person. At least to me.

Exactly, the problem with so many woke characters is that they aren't characters, they're just the writers going "fuck the old characters!" For instance, no one would have minded Iron Heart if she had say, used her own skills to build a suit inspired by Iron Man and earnt his respect that way.

In what fucking world is Oldboy a cautionary tale about the dangers of slut-shaming? The girl who kills herself was fucking her brother; that's why she was ashamed.

If there's any woke interpretation of Oldboy it's that it's basically a treatise on incest and #LoveIsLove.

I don't think there's a grander showing of pseudointellectualism than thinking someone is enjoying pop media the "wrong way."

Now sure there are examples of not getting the point of the media with a clear moral message, like if someone watches "American History X" and thinks it's a movie that argues for racism. And yes there are people who are that dense or delusional.

But if you watch The Sopranos and just like it because it's funny guineas getting into trouble, well that's 90% of the show. And just because someone doesn't focus on the political/social commentary doesn't mean it flew over their heads. You'd have to be straight up ignorant when it comes to the 2000s to not notice how the show writers critiqued Bush Administration policy and the War on Terror. And no one but a misogynistic strawman thinks the mafia treatment of women is anything beyond despicable. But that's just two facets of the show, hardly what defines it.

Also that description of Gattaca is just bafflingly wrong. It's not about Capitalism whatsoever. What did "Capitalism" create social castes and discrimination? It reads like an Onion Peter Rosenthal review. It's just clear that whatever insipid mind wrote this comes into any movie with an agenda.

It might be trolling because it's just so dumb, but most of it isn't even funny dumb. It's just the same premise: "white man too stupid to know movie right" don't like twenty different ways with occasional stand-out moments of stupidity like the hot take on action movies or calling Twin Peaks fans pretentious twats react to meaningless randomness. If it's bait, its still lame.

I definitely agree. Miles might have inspired this but he's not a good example of it. Maybe someone did have the superficial idea 'let's make Spider-Man a black kid', but those books were put out when merit still mostly ran the industry and the people making comics were generally there for making good comics. It was a different Marvel Comics that later looked at him as a sign that the genre as a whole was ready for this bizarre forced collectivisation of intellectual property that dekulakized comic books and sent every old seasoned pro to the mail room in favor of schlubs pulled off Tumblr and their self-inserts.

In other words it sounds like everything Bob has ever written, and he's definitely not trolling.

But that would be too obvious. Having it peppered with buzzwords would give it away far too easily.

I say it's a troll job because there is not one film or show on there that everyone hasn't at least seen or heard of in their lives. These aren't obscure pieces either and almost all if them.are staples in their genre. The descriptions for them and how they fit into the "analysis" are so wildly inaccurate and race-baiting that they could easily stir up a great emotional response. That's where the trolling comes in in my opinion. Keep in mind that I'm more hoping that's the case than anything else.

It is absolutely lame regardless. But Bob is so eager to be a good little ally that he'll give it a shred of thoroughly undeserved credibility. I would think that any film critic worth their salt could immediately shred it and point out how terrible the "analysis" is right off the bat, but I suppose he just couldn't help but restraint himself. Either that or he hasn't earned the moniker he gave himself and his knowledge of film is shit like everything else about him.

Your logic is sound, but I say if your attempt at trolling is indistinguishable from what people like Bob actually say on the regular then it's wasted energy.

Godfrey Elfwick was my gold standard for stuff like this, because what he said was unequivocally absurd but the people he was trolling had to treat him seriously because otherwise it meant admitting their ideology was a complete joke.

I disagree that it's wasted energy, necessarily. Sometimes trolling is done purely for the satisfaction of the troll. Also, it may be an early attempt and they went slightly too subtle.

I've done that before where my implicit wink is missed and people start yelling at you that you're an idiot for holding the views you're attempting to parody.

Upon reflection, that might be what's happening here -- Poe's Law taking effect where only the most ideologically-blinded community college student could come up with such a retarded take.

If it's a troll, I 100% fell for it until someone brought up the possibility that it's trolling. I assumed it came from some leftist on Twitter, but without a source/original artist, it's hard to tell.

He's so fucking ignorant on shakespeare that it's hilarious.

Im firmly convinced that FilmRoberto desperately needs Shakespeare's plays to be the cultural equivalent of superhero schlock because he's tied up so much of his personal identity into superhero capeshit.

The Bard literally revolutionized the English language, wrote plays with total cultural appeal (before Shakespeare, drama done in a language other than latin and greek was considered bawdy or dirty) and his works are still studied and reinterpreted.

The best and kindest thing one can say about marvel films is that their fun popcorn films. Nothing more.

He probably wouldn't associate with the Empire, especially because of "MUH FASCISM" and because Disney has done a bang-up job of convincing the general public that the Empire stands for Evil Orange Man. Instead of, you know, the result of democratic excess, senatorial infighting, people falling for demagogues and giving them UNLIMITED POWER.

It's as far as he gets with having form. A form that is a manifestation of pure hatred and bile.

Captain America becoming an unremarkable but defensive black guy, and then becoming a gaudy teenage faggot, is a pretty good line graph to where America is culturally.

And the thing is, the gaudy teenage fairy-boy look is such a stereotype for gays. Why not just make him look like the OG muscular Captain America but then just have him be gay as a character trait? At least it would be less stereotypical, not to mention there have been muscular, macho gay cultures IRL, like Sparta.

The Bard was the English equivalent of the Greek Tragedy playwrights, whose tales revolutionized their culture for years to come.

Marvel films are just a nicer form of the Michael Bay blockbuster, except Bay still had the balls to be gritty more than half the time. Outside of the later films, most of the Marvel films were about as kid-friendly as My Little Pony.

Bob trying to equate Marvel films with Shakespeare is like what if I tried to equate the 1980s GI Joe show with the Greek Tragedies. It just doesn't fit.
