Marvel Studios | The Infinity Saga ends

Namor needs the speedo and Supes needs his undies back.

(ā€¦ā€œGay Asianā€? Really?

Thanks for reminding me why I mostly just ignore your stupid ass, Magegg.)

I’d be fine with Brie Larson as Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers. I’m also more than fine the woman who played the villain in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. movie apparently being in the second Guardians of the Galaxy movie since I didn’t comment on that.

On a completely unrelated note, I hadn’t noticed how tall apparently is when watching that movie. 6’2"? Huh.

I know. I was just joking with you, which I thought would be extra apparent given I went out of my way to post Mr. Tee in a tee.

Sigh. This is part of the reason I tend not to joke around aside from being extremely sarcastic.

Brie Larson doesn’t have the curves to be Carol Danvers.

Carol has Dancers now? Damn. She got a full power-up when she became Captain Marvel apparently.

Funny, I thought Spider-Woman was the gayest woman in the group among the Avengers, even when you count Moondragon, but between having her own whore and apparently Dancers now, apparently Carol (b)eats her out:

(Seriously, though, who would you suggest play Carol Danvers then, oh Australian sage?)

Why did you remind me of that particularly bad piece of writing for Doom, @ā€œThe Damnedā€ ?

Doom has no need of non sequitur insults based on gender:

They have to make her interesting somehow.

(I will give you two possible answers, though there may be more and they may not be mutually exclusive.)

Please circle all that apply:

A. Because it’s literally the first thing that came to mind when I saw Wasted’s minor typo even though my only knowledge of that comic comes from MGK’s parody of it and even though said comic is apparently already eight years old. (Geez.)
B. Because I am a monster who is rather equal opportunity about enjoying the suffering of others.

Choose carefully.

You know its bad writing, because Doom isn’t even referring to himself in third-person in that nonsensical and hilariously bad tirade.

(But of course. It’s Bendis, whose writing tends to be talkative and mediocre at the best times and tends to only be comfortable writing stuff related to Spider-Man.)

Still, it says a lot that the above is hardly the worst version of Doom we ever got, even in comic-books, and that most people basically believed rather quickly it was a malfunctioning Doom-bot given Doom has that convenient excuse in (too) many instances. [/Doom]

How perfect would he be

Fucking auto-correct. Now you mention it I wouldn’t mind seeing Brie Larson dancing as Carol.

I guess she could work in the role, just needs a little more meat on her bones. I thought she was older than 26.

If you want a real shitty written Doom then look no further than Hudlin’s Black Panther. It was the arc where Panther and Storm were visiting all the other fictional nations of Marvel and establishing relations with their leaders. Doom came off as a racist in the issue he appeared in.

Fuck Reggie Wudlin.

There’s a reason the Boondocks lit into that nigga on multiple occasions.

No, I just hate Reggie Hudlin.

Doom can be as racist as he wants to be… He doesn’t seem to be too fond of mutants, either.

It would be pretty stupid for a character who suffered from heavily prejudice for being a gypsy be a racist. The guy can’t stand being in the same room as the Red Skull.

Its obviously a Doombot that was reprogrammed as a pimp who breaks the laws of ebonics.

I’m sure it won’t happen but Charlize Theron would make a good Captain Marvel to me.

Since the ideal Namor is The Rock and he is signed on to play Black Adam in the DC movies, I am cool with whoever, Namor looks Asian in more 45% of his appearances especially the early ones, so Asian Namor is fine with me.

Gonna come and say Doom might be racist meanwhile BP is blatantly racist and hates white people.

This is the real world?

(I’d be more than fine with Charlize Theron as well, though really I’d likely be fine with anyone for Carol so long as they can actually act.)

On the one hand, let’s not pretend that minorities can’t be racist or otherwise bigoted against other minorities (or even against majorities) since we all know they totally can be if we’re being truthful. So Doom being Roma doesn’t exempt him from being possibly racist. He’s at least shown bias against mutants as a whole, and that’s despite the fact that early in Storm’s career he kidnapped her to be his bride.

On the other hand, let’s similarly not pretend that a (too) large part of Hudlin’s writing is making all of the people that go against Black Panther laughably ultra-racist, like there’s no other possible reason anyone would have a reason to go against T’Challa except for ā€œhe’s blackā€. Hudlin is a rather hack writer in at least that regard and arguably others.

Regardless, I’m not sure why we’re even talking about Doom being potentially racist (or why RockBogart edited the n-word into his post as if that would get the point across better) given how much of a non-issue it is for the most part, especially since MCU unfortunately doesn’t have rights to Doom still.

(Also, I thought that ā€œcanonā€ basically straight-up ignored what happened in the Unthinkable arc anyway given that was ultimately written to sully Doom’s ā€œnobilityā€ by having him do truly monstrous things…before he apparently started blowing up entire universes because he ā€œhad toā€ in the lead-in to the whole ā€œBattleworldā€ thing about a decade later.)

He wouldn’t. Only a hack like Hudlin would make Doom a racist for no good reason.
