couldn't they at least have given her red hair?

>>85613401
at least she isn't white and we can all agree that is the most important thing

>>85613469
She's whitish

>>85613494
desu i don't even care about mixed race or black or white or whatever anymore, i guess they won

I never thought it was all that important so why even bother making a character black or sth in the first place

but right now, pretty much everyone has a multicultural/multiracial background it would be pretty hard to find someone who doesn't unless you screen for it extra

since I want to enjoy my entertainment i pretty much stop caring what race they make characters into unless it's a big part of their story, like the new f4 movie that was just ridiculous

It's the breakfast club/hermione at yule ball thing, she's frumpy all movie and at homecoming she's gonna be gorgeous

>>85613401
You people are the worst. She literally isn't. It was "news" reported by someone known for bullshitting. It's been confirmed she's not Mary Jane you fucking autists.

>>85613401
Maybe the red hair will make an appearance later in the movie, in the high school dance, giving her a cliched entrance where everyone gawks at her and Peter says "wow" under his breath,

She comes over then takes his hand, queue the line about how Pete hit the jackpot.

Frankly I never figured MJ for a natural redhead anyway.

>>85613401
did anybody else hate kirsten dunst as mary jane? I mean she got some basic looks down but she portrayed the role horribly (probably was also written horribly) but there is just something.. I don't know something about her so I never really liked her even in her better movies

I always felt the same way about jennifer lawrence even before I caught wind what kind of shitty person she is

Cast Terry Crews as Jonah
Cast Forrest Whittaker as Dr. Conners
Cast Tyler Perry as Shocker
Cast Dave fucking Chappelle as Cletus Kassidy

Cast shit that makes sense regardless of race. But dont raceswap just for the sake of it, like this entire casting has been

Where was she confirmed as MJ?

Did Disney like officially confirm that she is in fact Mary Jane?

>>85613401

HER PUSSY HAIR IS RED.

>>85613401
They are gonna go full 90's and pull a She's All That.

She'll be frumpy the whole movie until the big reveal, when she decides to clean herself up for the homecoming dance and magically becomes a babe.

>>85614361
Which just doesn't happen. People are either always ugly or always attractive.

>>85613951
Nope. They haven't said shit. Elmayimbe posted some bullshit about reading a recent script and Zendaya being MJ. But refuses to give any more details.

>>85613836
She's literally stoned off her ass like 90% of the time she's on set, probably also banging the shit out of James Franco.

Dude. It's an alternate reality. Who cares if MJ is black in the MCU? No one bitched when it was revealed Heather Hudson was black in Exiles, because ALTERNATE REALITIES.

I personally don't care; if she's a good actress then that should be all that matters. Skin color shouldn't even be an issueeven though it still is for some insane reason... maybe humanity is born insane after all.

The only times being white is part of someones character in comics and film is when they're neo-naizes, klansmen or racists who need to learn the errors of their ways.

The only exeptions is when they can express thier nationality as Irish or Italien etc.

Blacks, browns and yellows on the other hand are being encouraged to take pride in their race. It's a double standard, there's a lot of those out there.

>>85615336
Isn't that what i've said? Their national background is not looked down upon, but racial pride very much is, to a much greater extent than it is for everybody else.

Sometimes it's even encouraged to shout black/other and proud, but the same can't be said for white. Claiming pride in nationality gives a alternative outlet which isn't seen as racist, at least not yet.

In other words you can say that you're proud to be of German parents, but not white.

This Spider-man movie has ghostbusters trainwreck all over it you change so many things about the source material until its basically on spider-man in name only.

>>85613401
Marvel is borderline pushing their luck with this cast

Think about all the crying about DC - A majority of their film characters have history that even normies know about.

Marvel started with blank slates for the most part. Iron Who says the normie before RDJ bursts on the scene.

Think of this way - Would Fox do this with X-Men? Make Jean Grey a black girl, don't like it? UR RACIST

No, the normie audience knows who the X-Men are from other mainstream sources and guess what other franchise normies know about? Yeah, Spiderman and for the most part, it's central cast.

It'll take a hit but I don't see it flopping cause McMarvel can make turds shine, just look at AoU.

MCU had a formular that worked pretty well until now
they never tried to push an agenda with their movies, now this Spiderman movie looks like a try hard agenda pushing Sony production and we all know how much money those make

>>85621530

Yeah, only people who vote for Trump have a problem with casting a black girl for no reason at all as Literally THE Redhead. That's a pretty busted form of logical fallacy there.

>>85625763
no because the problem with the casting choices they made so far is that no one really fits their character, no one wants to see Peter get bullied by someone smaller than him

>>85626360
>no one wants to see Peter get bullied by someone smaller than him
This is one of the biggest gripes for me. Not that he's Indian. IIRC in a lot of Spider-Man shows and comics one of the things that kept him from going to town on Flash was that no one would believe that Puny Parker beat the shit out of football star Flash Thompson.

>>85613865

Cast Terry Crews as Jonah

All right, now I'm aroused.

>>85614809
This post is incredibly problematic.

I don't care if she's black or white or whatever race she is. I care if she can act or not.

>>85613836
I can't speak on her acting, since I haven't seen the Sam Raimi movies since I was, like, 14, but I can at least attest to the character itself being awful, since her whole purpose in the entire series is to get kidnapped at least twice per movie.

Stranger Things just came out and it's bullies were less imposing than their victim Johnatan. Where are all the people calling that unrealistic? The one as tall as him was Steve and he was still physically overpowered once shit hit the fan, not to mention he was later humiliated by butter-face and his girl too. Bullying is psychological, it's not just about stuffing people in lockers or putting them upside down to steal their pocket change. And that's assuming Flash will still be a guy that hates and mocks puny Peter, for all we know they might've reworked they're relationship as something more about rivalry in whatever field

That would be dumb. Flash is meant to be a bully, but even more than that, he's meant to represent the popular class stereotype in highschool stories. He's meant to be the football star, the tall popular hunky dude that dates the hottest girl in school and is super smug about it. Appearance does matter in this case, but I'm not talking about skin color. He's supposed to be physically imposing. Tall, built, all that. You just can't sell that impression with a short babyfaced kid. That guy would make a good Harry Osborn, but not a good Flash.

>>85630463
you have to account for the fact that that stereotype is almost non-existent anymore.

Even in Stranger Things, Steve wasn't the typical douchebag,

Well, what's your argument? Not muh beef? We've had two beefy Flash already and they were both boring as shit and barely had any character. I'm not saying a stereotypically jocky Flash can't work in film, but i won't bitch if they're trying for something a bit different either. Plus i like Ravioli as an actor

>>85631205
He should be a physical bully though. The fact that Peter can't use his powers in his civilian life without putting his identity in jeopardy kind of loses its impact if he could beat up the bully before.

>>85631361
>Not muh beef?
Essentially. I just think that a physically unimposing Flash will make a less significant bully. Maybe they can make it work and if they do I won't have any problem admitting I was wrong, but until then I'm skeptical.

>>85626429
>Not that he's Indian
That bothers me. If he tries to bully people they can just call him a poo and turn it around. Since he's small he can't even use that as an excuse to be an ass. Parker could fuck his shit up quick.

>>85626429

>>85631581

>>85632635
>The point is, it's Marvel who should be blamed for the casting
Way to blow things out of proportion. Two "blackwashed" characters are "numerous examples"?

>Stop using Sony as the scapegoat
How can i, it's factual that Sony messed up rebooting the franchise so quickly. If they didn't Marvel wouldn't be now trying so hard to appear fresh. It's the reason we're not having a proper origin story, why they added new elements to the suit, why we won't see already done villains like Octopus for a while, or why they're trying love interests that aren't Gwen or MJ (although none of these are a negative per se, of course)

>everything wrong with this movie
So you're another time-traveler that has already seen it and alreay knows all of it's problems?

>>85632659
I doubt Marvel wants to copy Sony.

>>85632825
I'm not debating whether or not Sony messed up ASM2, that much is already known to be true. The original point I was trying to make was that they're not the ones pushing their "agenda", as the original poster implied. Blaming Sony for everything that goes wrong and then praising Marvel for everything that goes right is literally drone thinking. If they had cast someone as Flash who was actually tall, muscular, and intimidating to Peter, then you would be praising Marvel for "staying true to the source material". But because they cast someone who is the exact opposite of that, you choose to blame Sony for it.

Why are you discussing it if there's still no official confirmation?

I'm sure some are, but i'm not blaming anyone for anything here nor i think there's an agenda behind the casting. The only thing that could really disappoint me here is Zendaya as MJ (although for now i don't believe the rumour), and that's mostly because they seem to have altered her personality + hair colour

>>85633156
The idea alone was enough to trigger purists and pol-tards and to make SJWs gloat about white tears
Plus almost every site is talking about it to get a share of them clicks, and since almost nobody bothers to read the actual articles they're only left with the misleading headlines ("Zendaya confirmed as MJ Watson", "Homecoming will feature the first African-american MJ" etc.)

>Tfw I did makeup on one of the bullies two days ago for a film.

Sorry, unrelated I know, but I haven't seen stranger things, so it's neat to see it instead of just hear about it. It's good to be breaking into the business /co/

bitched about brown manlet flash, no one cared
bitched about fat asian ned, no one cared
bitched about black mary jane, now we're racist

>>85634842
Good for you, anon. Was it routine makeup or something special?

>>85635016
Silicone eye socket prosthetics, cool gory shit. Who knows if I'm allowed to talk about it, but hey it's 4chan and I haven't signed any paperwork.

Regardless, people talked about him being on the show and he spoke about it fondly, but this is actually my first time seeing him in a picture for it.

>>85635125
Cool. Did you study for it or was it just about training on your own and then looking for someone to hire you? I had a friend that said she wanted to study "professional makeup" but we haven't kept in touch so i don't know how she's handling it

>YAAAAASSSS GRRLL, WE MJ NOW
>lighter than a tanned white person

>>85629173
Minimal then.

Both me and my girlfriend went to school for it, but we've worked with a good few people who are self taught.

Black mixtures like this are so fucking rare but so delicious.

Can you literally only get these types of the father is pure white and the mother is black?

>>85614661
>off the top of my head he called planet hulk years ago
Literally everyone said that years ago. And they were wrong.

Nigger and ginger are anagrams.

The only reason that Peter Parker is still white in this movie, is because Marvel made it a contractual obligation.

She's not MJ.
The "leak" comes from some rando on Twitter (who totally has the insider scoop for real you guys it's legit) and contradicts literally every bit of info we've gotten to this point, including past leaks from more reliable sources.

Until Marvel officially reveals her as MJ, she ain't MJ.

>Director isn't a hack
>Actors are actually talented
>Marvel effects usually look pretty good
>Spider-Man isn't a lady for no reason
>The promotion so far hasn't been "FUCK YOU FANS OF THE SOURCE MATERIAL, GRRL POWRR."
Yeah nah.

>>85636465
To be fair, we know from the Sony leaks that they do stunt casting like that in hopes of making a quick buck all the time.
The new Ghostbusters weren't women for diversity's sake, but rather because "she wants a fucking girl movie, give it to her and maybe earn some shock bucks".

Making Pete black would be the only way to immediately differentiate a new Spidey series from the ASM movies.

Well, that or sticking him with the Avengers.
Thankfully everything worked out.

The people that want to believe the rumour are hiding behind the idea that the MJ identity will be some sort of twist ending, as in she'll actually be Michelle for most of the movie until she reveals she likes to be called "MJ" for whatever reason and dyes her hair red and suddenly looks stunning

I know there's Hollywood people retarded enough to come up with shit like this, but the MCU has been so straightfoward so far in adapting characters

>post yfw they pull the "extreme makeover the conventionally attractive grill into a hot supermodel" meme on Michelle

>>85636708
Are they going to make her white?

>>85636669

no they leak the Michelle thing and call her MJ and everyone is like "Oh she's not mary jane" and boom face it tiger twist

>>85636491

it's not some rando, he writes for The Wrap and has his own site. Grantland did a whole article about how good he is at getting this news/scoops like a year ago

She's way cuter with the minimal makeup she wears on set photos desu

>>85629225
Yeah I thought it was Michelle. What's this MJ bullshit

I think i have enough reasons not to trust this Gonzales guy

I don't think it's impossible that Zendaya is MJ, but i'd wait for something more substantial

Rumpled is sexy. It implies things were done that left her clothing rumpled.

>>85639165
Fuck that. She's the real Flash Thompson and the real villain in the movie.

>Until Marvel officially reveals her as MJ, she ain't MJ.
with the amount of positive reception they're getting from normies about a mere rumor i wouldn't be surprised they rewrite the whole character as the actual mary jane
