Gert's not a fatty. Fucking Hollywood couldn't find a fatty.

Also Molly seems way too old, but I guess child acting laws fucked them.

>>89604676
You'd figure with the dumbass fat acceptance shit flying around, theyd be more than willing to get a lard for the character

Ugh. I HATE it when they change characters names in adaptations. Like, we know who they're supposed to be so why not just leave the name alone?

If they are blocked by rights, it is probably not actually suppose to be molly but an OC taking her place. So fox can't sue.

They can't have the character so they're making an analogue.

Marvel I liked this comic. You don't have to do this shit to it to make people like it. Please stop pressing this narrative.


> Like Gert?

Didn't they? Gert's Jewish and she's being played by a Latina. But you know now one cares about that. As long as she's fucking brown enough to quell tumblr.
>>
>>89604622
I'm more interested in the parents.
>>
I don't feel excited about live action adaptations anymore. Now I see Marvel rebooting this series as a comic with Molly Hernandez and skinny Gert.
>>
>>89605030
She's a mutant and subject to the deal Marvel set up with Fox many years ago. Change the last name and she's basically a new character and they can use her.
>>
>>89605219
Don't make me think about that. PS Gert is Hispanic too.
>>
>they're doing Molly
The absolute madmen.

It'll be shit tho.
>>
>>89605236
That's not now it works. They can't use 'Mutant'. They're just going to make her an inhuman.

I wonder if they will have Old lace, baby ultron or Nico banging everybody.
will they have avengers Arena
>>
>>89605236
Wrong. Being a mutant doesn't automatically make you a Fox character, what matters is where you debut and whether or not you have a history with the X-Men. Just look at Squirrel Girl.
>>
>>89604999
>Marvel TV
>MCU
There's a reason why AoS is not canon. This shit is still under Perlmutter.
>>
>Not casting Ariel Winter as Gert
>>
>>89605296
Didn't molly move in with the X-men after runaways while everybody else went with the avengers?
>>
>>89605168

Considering Nico's mum was Chinese (and in charge of the Hong Kong Institute) in her brief appearance in Doctor Strange, Nico is probably Chinese-American now too.
>>
>>89605281
No. That's understandable and out of their control. Though it does make her backstory a bit confusing considering her parents didn't want a mutant kid but Inhumans probably would.
>>
>>89605339
The Actress isn't? I'll give them that. The didn't go into the "all asians look the same no one will be able to tell."
>>
>>89605289
They'll revive her because they can profit from it
>>
Gregg Sulkin.....yassssss, my penis thanks them
>>
>>89605318
I should clarify, having a history with the X-Men AT THE TIME THE CONTRACTS WERE MADE. Characters made after the contract only go to Fox if they debut in an X-Book.
>>
meh, Molly's race was of no importance. This change is ok unlike an asian Iron Fist would have been. Chase should have been a good for nothing spic though
>>
>>89605289
She's not dead in the original serious dude. At least don't be retarded when you're trying to troll people.
>>
i hope this good but i doubt it, Why did they change molly's surname the could have easily just kept and used the same actress. I understand why they aged her up though,
>>
>>89605424
honestly, finding good children actors is hard enough. Just pick the best for the job for Molly, fuck race
>>
>>89605236
Which is why AoS could namedrop Eden Fesi, why Typhoid Mary is with DD rights, QS and SW are shared, they're making something with Squirrel Girl, etc. Right?
>>
>>89605455
>fuck race

Only when it involves going from white to something else amirite guys. Otherwise people that identified with a specific white character can go fuck off haha. Diversity.
>>
>>89605425
She's dead in the comics and the guy I was talking to said she come back skinny. I responded with she wouldn't be brought back at even if they do another comic. Most likely they bring back team and add singularity.
>>
>>89605455
>good children actors
She's 14
>>
>>89605489
Fuck singularity. That book is garbage and people only like her because she's a simpleton.

fuck you, Singularity is adorable and I want to protect her smile
>>
>>89605541
Proving my point. Her only trait is neoteny.
>>
>>89605512
So the molly hayes audience?
>>
>>89605304
The fuck is that thing between her lips? Some kind of piercing?
>>
>>89605504

Still awful.

Name at least five good child actors that are 14 or younger
>>
>>89604790
her last name is okano, so maybe fuck off
>>
So if the series lasts, do we think they'll eventually add Victor, Xavin and Klara?

Does Marvel even own the rights to Xavin considering he/she is a super skrull in training?
>>
>>89605488
Literally no one cares
>>
>>89605580
I knew that was coming. Yeah probably. But you're not tired of the endless stream of retarded female characters who's writers only goal is to make them cute? Squirrel Girl, Hellcat now, Gwenpool, Singularity. It's an endless stream of Twee garbage.

At least Molly got called out on it and showed intelligence outside of being a literally kid. These characters are played straight.
>>
Is this set in the MCU? If so, how will the "Our parents are super villains" moment work? There's not really enough of them for that to be a thing.
>>
>>89605663
Anon. I get you don't care, but I'm right here. We can argue about it if you want. If you don't care that much you can just fuck off while I blow some steam for a while.
>>
>>89604622
I hope at least someone of those actors is good. Especially Alex, he is the most important character in vol.1.

I will never not be mad about Molly
>>
>>89605649
Xavin never. Super Skrulls are owned by FOX cause the FF powerset. I still think this should have been a film.
>>
It's too annoying to watch shows like this, that revolve around a teenaged cast. The writers never have any idea what teenagers even act like, so it just gets too cringey and weird. It will try to hard to be cool and edgy, and it sucks because I loved runaways so much.

OK, I respect that you care and some other people care, I shouldn't have said that no one cares because you might feel personally invested in the character but come on my dude, they're just comics.

To be quite frank with you, I'm more worried that since this will probably be on ABC, that it will be utter shit and a disservice to the series.

I'll give you this though, if they retcon Molly in the 616, I'll truly be pissed because the whole synergy shit is wearing real thin.

I don't really get why "it's just comics" matters here? I make comics. Comics are all I do. You're saying my life doesn't matter. Ok yes I'm not being serious. I'm just having my first heard of this news meltdown which I will later turn into rage driven artwork.

Oh yeah. I really didn't want a Live show. I really wanted an animated series. Something about live seems to ruin a lot of the fun of comics. Granted most of this is the origin and won't have to deal with a lot of CG.

I enjoy the movies and such but I was never a fan of most of the movie's characters so I don't feel let down by them.

Runaways on the other hand was my first comic and actors aside I don't think they're going to get it. It's all pretty people playing a bunch of losers. Then again fucking Hollywood.

TYRONE JOHNSON (Aubrey Joseph)

Probably just lesser known crime lords or people in the Shield database or something. Just because they didn't appear in a movie, doesn't mean that can't be the same characters (or close) to who they were in the source material.
>>
>>89606156
I have no issue with its description of Gert: I'm well aware that that is what her character is. My main problem arises from the fact that a marketing executive sat down and wrote this under the incorrect impression that he was being hip and down with the kids.

DROPPED!
>>
>>89606185

The only real problem the show faces is how they handle Molly's powers. And if they can afford to show Old Lace as much as they should.

I do wish we could get the cheesed off Cap there to save the day at the end of the first season/arc. That was fun.
>>
>>89606211
Jessica Jones will probably do the same thing daredevil did, use a popular character for season 2. Because let's be honest here, jj does not have rogues gallery

>>89606246

(Obviously they'll probably make Molly an Inhuman. But the daughter of two other Inhumans? Is that a thing in the MCU yet? I'm behind on Shield.)

When viewers start to drop out they'll introduce him to bring teenage girls in. Expect him to be played by whichever actor is hot to tween/teen girls at the time.

I mean more that the reason the concept works is that there's so many villains in the marvel universe of course this would happen eventually, but in the MCU there's like 5. Not nearly as plausible. Also the whole thing is that each of the parent couples embody a kind of super villain, but most of those have only showed up once in the MCU. The reference won't land as well.

No Anon, it's always been a non-issue.

If they change the traitor then they're fucking retarded and should kill themselves. Chase isn't competent enough to be a traitor, Alex was the perfect traitor because he's smart and his motives were solid (we can't defeat the Gibborim so I'm going to save my parents, my waifu and my waifu's parents). What is Chase going to do, betray everyone because the Gibborim promise to bring Gert back to life? I'm not even sure if Gert dies before they get to the Gibborim. Chase frankly doesn't have the character development to make him a good traitor.

Feliz is very obviously a Hispanic surname and he's from Santa Monica. Unless his dad's name was Jackson and he changed it to get in good with a bunch of Mexicans by pretending to be from Latin America (which would be kind of retarded since Mexicans tend to dislike Caribbean Afro-Latinos anyway) it is probably that his father is black Puerto Rican or black Dominican or black Cuban.

Race changes for no reason other than political brownie points is still retarded, even though the runaways already had a fair amount of diversity in the cast they felt the need to flip Molly and Gert so it would be majority non-white.

But there was still a "big" uproar wasn't there? Enough that it got the author's attention

>>89607458
I didn't mean to imply that /co/ or /tv/ or /a/ would ever defend that casting choice, heck I'm not defending that casting choice it was only to paint a real life example. Think of it like this:

Whether it be in the past (Such as with the Avatar and DBZ movies ((both of which were terrible)) or it be in the future (Death Note and Ghost in The Shell movie), the extreme left will complain there isn't enough "Asian representation" in those movies. Here's the thing though but the rest of the world, Asians included won't care. There are enough videos you can just google where the Japanese when questioned for their opinion will respond with "who cares, it doesn't matter they aren't Asian, it's an American production for American people etc etc

It's the same shit whenever anyone complains a white character is race swapped.

Look man all I'm saying is that I don't care and you shouldn't care either but if you do that's your problem and Hollywood casters are definitely not bothered by your opinions. Also I don't want to stay in this thread.

Everything's big on the internet if The Guardian reports on it. Like a few years ago when one guy bitched about the Starbucks ups and suddenly all Christians are mad. Tomorrow there's going to be a report about angry white fans mad about Molly. It's already started on tumblr.

not everything is completely about race, but yeah it was intended to be very diverse.

Would have linked to the "Social Justice Sally" Tumblr page, but someone changed it (maybe for safety reasons.) So, here's the Tumblr tag. https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/social-justice-sally

I honestly tried to find a lot of the SJ blogs I used to read, most are all deleted, usually out of either burn out, threat of personal safety, or because their audience as changed.
Just for fun, I mean look at the popular "Urban Dictionary" written in 2011, and the one written in 2016.

Thank you, Anon. I will forever fuck me off, over what happened to a once useful term. It was used by the left too call out bullshitters and bullies, now it's used by those that see Social Justice as joke fodder. SJW should be mainstream as a term, for safeguarding, etc, but not now, as the "Alt-Right" have set the narrative. I don't wanna search SJWs and get Neo-Nazies.

>>
>>89619379
The entire point of my original was that I was worried they'll never include him since they already have a bunch of hispanics, while that was his thing. Killing him off or replacing him with another hispanic won't solve that problem. I don't think they'll do the Ultron thing, but they could easily make him related to LMDs somehow. If he appears it'll be in the second season.
>>
>>89619723

And before anyone says it, "they" being referring to those deserving of the moniker "SJW". And all this proves that the only one willing to deal with the extremists are the opposing extremists, because we sure did a shitty job keeping our own extremists at bay.
>>
>>89619723
Excuse me? People called them out and they continue to do so, now. Heck on Fail_FandomAnon that's what they have daily multiple threads on. Wecan't hold people hands, and it difficult to even use the term now, because it means something completely different. You basically have to use "Callout Culture". And, guess what? The far-right on the Internet is a /lot/ bigger than the far-left. Which definition does the mainstream Internet know, which one has now set the dictionary definition? Not, the former, that's for sure.
>>
>>89619465
Anon I don't know what you're trying to prove but you are still wrong. The term was not originally used as a negative.

Everything you are providing post dates the comic. Where as my link provides proof of its use even before the internet as a positive term.

I know what it means now but the fact of the matter is gert matches the description of a sjw of the time

Oh yeah, you did such a great job. Game companies like EA, Ubisoft and comic companies like Marvel now thinks SJWs are what the young mainstream are like by default. Twitter's ruled by the likes of the usual suspects (including Requires Hate, who pretty much is connected to the anti GG group). Now Antifa are allowed to run loose with NO opposition from the mainstream left.

You can't control people, only call them out (or do a call-in, if they are willing to listen. But, if you've noticed they are extremely dangerous, and use dirty tactics.), and warn other about this behaviour. Also, educate people so they don't fall the same way. One thing I've noticed, though is that because of the co-option left-wing people who wouldn't be originally considered an "SJW" now are. Therefore, when people use it in its original term, that get accused of being far-right, and those people are now alining themselves with 1st definitions. I'm seeing more and more decent SJ folks being pulled into the far-left and its a /really/ worrying trend.

Requires hate used GG to her advantage, the Mixon report was revealed around the same time as GG, she tried to paint F_FA as some sort of Fandom 4chan, tried to be buddy, buddy with Quinn and gained an Ally in Chu. She played them for a fiddle. IIRC, there were screen-caps of her old forum posts why showed how nasty she is, and even I believe spouting Nazi-tier rhetoric.

I wonder. WHO was the one who said these people are harmless? Now because of them, /pol/ has more power than before to exact their influence. The far right rises because of the far left and they'll continue to feed each other's rage until there's nothing left.

Sorry, Anon I think we were at a cross purpose. I know per-Internet it had positive connotations, I.e- The Christian concept of "Social Justice", and those that were in the article. I'm talking about the term in relation to fandom discourse. It even listed some of the examples I mention. Problem with "SJW" is it has so many terms, so what does it really mean? I took umbrage with it being always a "positive" term in fan circles.

I wonder who will replace Xavin, seeing as they can't use the Skrulls.
>>
>>89608889
I can't see them NOT wanting to reap those brownie points.
>>
>>89621068
They can to some extent, but not Super Skrulls and Fantastic Four powers (which Xavin has). Xavin has no business in season 1 though, so no worries yet.
>>
>>89621147
They probably just scrap the aliens, make Karolina an Inhuman (it's still under Ike the Kike after all) and hook her up with Nico because that's the obvious choice.
>>
>>89621197
>make Karolina an Inhuman
Then what's Molly?
Karolina will definitely be an alien, but there is a rather high chance Xavin will never show up.
>hook her up with Nico because that's the obvious choice.
Nah, I don't think so.
>>
>>89621237
What kind of Alien was she again?
Not tied to the FF?

Also Nico is pretty much her fallback girl, evertime she has no love interest they tease her to hell and back with Nico.
'sides, brownie points. LGBT woman of asian descend sounds like it'll get some points from the SJW crowd.

Of course they could also just use Gert.

Majesdenians were created for the Runaways series. That's what Karolina's race is.
>>
>>89604790
>>fifteen year old playing a ten year old that acts like she's five

Least she'll be accurate to how she's drawn in the comics most the time.

>>89621360
Xavin's a shit character anyway, might as well cut him.
>>
>>89621197
>>89621264
They can't put Karolina with Nico because it would completely screw Nico's heroic journey. Nico spent the whole first volume of Runaways following Alex and that in turn became one of her biggest burdens. It's what pushed her to become the leader of the team. And there's also the fact Nico herself rejected her in volume 2. Turning a character gay when it has been stated (and shown) she's straight turns you into a hack who forces diversity for the sake of fake few points from the audience who cares, so basically Bendis.
>>
>>89621264
Majesdanian, alien species made specifically for her.

The reason I don't think they'll go for Nico being bi or lesbian is that they always seemed to make it inclusive and avoid stereotypes somewhat, but kept it real as well. Someone not just happening to secretly be gay just because you as a gay person like them is one of those things.

In fact, while it was never really made very explicit, I think they tried to do something similar with Xavin. It seemed like, as a Skrull he initially thought he could just change his physical form to female and be done with it, as Skrulls can freely change sex. Karolina accepted it, as long as he was a girl when they were together. However, Xavin seemed to have a hard time with it, because he found out he didn't actually like being a girl all the time (either because he actually identified as male or did not want to stay either sex for too long). He took every excuse to take his male form, for example to be "intimidating". Even Molly saw through this. I think deep down all of the main cast knew this, but were afraid to say it out loud, fearing that this might make them guilty of ending the relationship between Karolina and Xavin. Now I do think they really loved eachother in the end, but Xavin knew he couldn't be happy in the relationship as he was not confortable as a girl all the time. Then, knowing that the relationship couldn't last, he took Karolina's place to go with the Majesdanians, because he did love her and this way he could save her and make her remember him fondly, without finding out the hard way they were not going to work together.

Perhaps, I shouldn't have been so gunho. There was an honest miscommunication. It's 4chan, I assume the worst. You seem cool, people. So, many times people forget how it was used on the internet in 2011/12, it gets frustrating. (That's kind of what I meant by fan circles.) I wasn't even considering pre-internet. Can we all agree the term is a mess?

Yes definitely. This is why I like xavin as a character. He's complex and story arc that is way into social issues about trans and stuff but bkv was more if a shower than a teller with the issues. I think that's what sets runaways apart from books now that try to cram it down your throat.

>>
>>89626442
I'm telling it like it is.
GOTG was a massive success. I didn't like it, but I'm not denying the fact that it became a massive pop culture reference.

Ant-Man wasn't a flop, but wasn't really that great.
And Doctor Strange? The only thing that it will be remembered is the "I came to bargain" meme.

And in regards to tv, I don't comment on their quality, it's just that there isn't much hype for these characters, even if Luke Cage >>>>> Runaways in terms of popularity or even being interesting

And really, the show seems to be more like some live action drama that used to air at Fox Kids that no one remembers nowadays.

Except she straight up said she liked boys. The only thing she was questioning was how not to let karolina down without hurting her. That's the fucking problem with gay obsessed fans. Some characters are straight. Get over it.

Except in volume 3 she says Karolina was the best person she'd kissed. Considering she was intoxicated by romantic inhibitions for the guys that says a lot.

>>89632062
But she could only do every attack once.
>>
>>89631628
That doesn't negate not wanting to hurt her feeling. Karolina also makes comments about dick there is she straight now? Face it, normal people, friends, make these comments all the time without becoming gay because you want to fap to it.
>>
>>89632106
I'm thinking that she'd have two modes - witch arm and staff of one. She can use her arm to perform basic magics and, for a sliver of health, can draw the staff of one to get a longer reach and trade out her normal combos and specials for either a set of one-time uses, or have voice lines cycle through synonyms.

Nico is, at best, Lightly Bi.

>>89644938
Or just a teenager trying to figure herself out, which is the entire premise of Runaways.

Good thing is, if this is a TV show they can go with the obvious third season that BKV pushed but Whedon/Moore/Immonen ignored and bring Alex back.

Nico is one of the few comic characters that sexually act like a real human, well since a while. As much as people criticize the older comics for women talking about good looking women, they do it all the fucking time in r/l. And most at least experimented with a woman before.

Not entirely true. They were mentioned in promotional material for the ROM toy and then their design and backstory were created by Marvel for the ROM comics. Marvel has been able to use them even after they lost ROM, because they created them as they are. However, while Bug of the Micronauts is in a similar situation, James Gunn has said he can't use Bug in the movie, even though he can be used in the comic. Then last year Hasbro trademarked the name, but Marvel challenged that. However it was ruled that Hasbro/IDW can use the name, just not the design by Marvel. Probably still too complicated to use them though.
