It's funny, they don't want men to stereotype them and yet they sterotype men.

Seeing that quote from Feige where the entire character of Doctor Strange was reduced down to simply "white male" really exemplifies the problems with the current creative scene. Writers genuinely seem to care more about the race and gender of a character than any of their other traits.

Doesn’t help when the “modern” writers discard the source material & just write about their lives like RoP, She Hulk, Willow, and most fantasy genres today

I'm shocked to learn that people who went straight from their parents' suburban mansions to Ivy League schools and then into a coveted job writing scripts don't know anything about men, about women, about life. Who could've seen that coming?

When they constantly feel the need to make male characters look bad in order for the female characters to look good, do they not realise that it's really a sign of insecurity & weakness. Genuinely strong women can stand with men & have no desire to be against them like this. It's also a terrible message to send for both men & women.

"We've got nothing to look forward to in the present, and our past is being taken away from us." Damn near a direct quote from "1984", which was supposed to be a warning and is indirectly being used as a standard operating procedures manual for all things media. Keep up the great vids, C.D.!
