Marvel is backpedaling big time.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/07/10/spider-man-homecoming-producers-on-the-reveal-of-that-characters-nickname

>Feige: Well, we never even looked at it as a big reveal necessarily but more of just a fun homage to his past adventures and his past love. She's not Mary Jane Watson. She never was Mary Jane Watson. She was always this new high school character, Michelle, who we know there's an "M" in Michelle and an "M" in Mary. [laughs] So we're so clever and we thought, "Wouldn't it be neat if her initials were MJ?" And then I think it leaked that she would be playing MJ and then it became a whole headache for Zendaya to have to navigate. It was never a big, "Oh my God, it's a big reveal!" There are big reveals in the movie. That's not one of them.

>Pascal: She is not going to end as being Mary Jane Watson.

>Feige: She's not Mary-Jane Watson. Is she going to date Peter? Are they going to fall in love? She seems to be intrigued with him. There's a nice chemistry there. Who knows what will happen in the future films?

Lets devote an entire scene to having Michelle telling everyone to call her "MJ". But its definitely not intended to be taken seriously. Was just a funny nod, guise!

You could really tell that some idiot from Sony was afraid that the kids wouldn't catch the obvious references and made sure they put that in there.

Thing is, it's not that Zendaya is Mary Jane; she's "MJ" and she's replacing Mary Jane altogether.

...because journalist after journalist kept asking her if she was really Mary Jane, because her actual role in the movie fell into irrelevancy as people were more curious about the leak than what she or the director had to say, not because people hated her for stealing Mary Jane's role or whatever you're thinking

>>93769153
No, I don't. Marvel hasn't felt the need to explain their references in such an obvious stupid manner before, whereas the Sony people always act like goddamn retards. So it's a good bet that the retarded idea came from the retarded side of the collaboration, same place the "no big deal!" hip-with-the-kids v-logging shit came from.

Explain how being white is central to Mary Jane watson.

>>93769209
So should Animaniacs have spelt out all of the references so that kids couldn't miss any of them? Of fucking course not.

Showing the exact scene on a tv while you're doing your version of it serves no goddamn purpose. Either the kid doesn't know about that scene and then having the same thing happen on the tv in the scene makes no sense, or they have seen it and shouldn't need it pointed out. It's done for the dumbest of mouthbreathers who would have asked "so that part where he ran through backyards was an homage to Ferris Bueller, right?" if they hadn't gotten definitive proof of it in the scene.

The scene simply did not need a tv playing the original scene in the background. It's like doing the Deadpool post-credits scene, except instead of just having Deadpool do the bit from the movie you also have the scene playing on the tv behind Deadpool, because you won't trust your audience.

I'm simply telling the truth, there is one MJ in the MCU and she's not Mary Jane Watson, if you honestly believe they're going to introduce a second MJ named Mary Jane and she'll be the red head from the comics, good for you, but obviously that's a retarded premise, I shouldn't have to spell out to you why they aren't going to do that.

>delete

That's one funny way to look at things, they didn't use her = so they brutally murdered her character and everything she represents

Was Raimi cruel for "deleting" Gwen (at least initially) and using MJ as the first love that gets threatened by Goblin? Did you hate when the TASM movies "deleted" Gwen Stacy to replace her with a quirky nerd that stole her name? What about all the other spider-babes that these movies barely mention? So much deletion!

>Until the actual Mary Jane Watson shows up (she won't), this will still be the case.

I don't think she won't show up. Especially if assuming your theory of her being a replacement is true. Making a new character, but the only similarity being the initials? Sounds like they intended it as a dip in the water.

I'm sure that they (assuming they haven't already) will change their minds about the character because of the negative blacklash they're getting and they'll either deliver a proper Mary Jane or write Michelle out and not use Mary Jane either.

Oh, you're just a mad autist yourself who wants to sling around buzzwords. You should've said so, I wouldn't have bothered responding to you in the first place.

Next time be more obvious in your first post and say children who like capeshit or something so people know to ignore you right off the bat.
>>
>>93769525
Why are you getting so worked up?

not using her is the same as deleting her from continuity, and yeah I think if I made a Spider-man movie I would start with Gwen and then move on to MJ, that's the proper way to do it.

I wouldn't make a brand new MJ and if I did I wouldn't cast her as some ugly wog and i would have written her a personality that men desire, because she's meant to be desirable.

Children don't care about their parents' interests. Or their parents' lives, for that matter. That's how the term "dad rock" came to exist in the first place.

Are you under the belief that parents showing their kids their favourite 80's movies are a minority? No shit children aren't all just watching random 80's movies on their own. Same way I didn't go out to watch random 70's movies but got shown them by my dad.

>>93769609
>implying these autists are actual Spider-Man fans

Real Spider-Man fans would know better than to think MJ should show up in High School and since they're used to Spider-Man being fucked over they would know how to handle it better. Like some black kid having the nickname MJ is anywhere near as bad as Peter selling his marriage with MJ to fucking satan, to save an ancient old woman who's told him she's ready to die.

How am i getting worked up? I'm calling out your idiocy, and i want to judge the movie for what it wants to do instead of eternally focusing on what it could've been if it was a 1 to 1 copy of the comics

You don't like her character? Fine, nobody cares about all the rest about how her existence deleted another's and what you consider "the proper way to do it". If i had to reason that way for every CBM then I'd only be complaining all day. I already made the examples of the older Spiderman movies

And I'm a huge defender of MJ and Peter's marriage, mind you, i just realize that at the 3rd iteration of the big screen of the character in less than 20 years it's more than normal for the creators to wish to differ from what was done before. The fact that the movie still feels fresh despite being the 6th is one of the biggest praises it's getting after all

>>93769676
>Are you under the belief that parents showing their kids their favourite 80's movies are a minority?
They are. A lot of kids don't care for the "old stuff" and most of the time, parents just give them an iPad so they can watch unboxing videos or Lets Plays. You were part of the minority, there's still a lot of people your age who don't know shit about 70's movies. Probably far greater than those who do.

You're the one who got all hyperbolic out of nowhere, I'm just stating simple facts, the writers decided that Mary Jane was not worth including and they wrote Zendaya as an OC love interest for Peter Parker, I hope I'm wrong because that's pretty lame, but it's obviously their intention.

as fas as what that says about the movie, I'm not going to give them my money, you can go see it ten times and love it each time for all I care, go have fun, but I'll pay to see the Spider-Man movie where MJ is a white red-headed girl from queens, not this one.

Maybe your white-trash acquaintances do. That doesn't make it the norm for families who have movie-nights etc.

In case you hadn't noticed we're currently going through a massive 80's-nostalgia moment that in turn makes teens and tweens check out 80's classics. We're not talking about knowing about some obscure 80's b-movie, we're talking about John Fucking Hughes movies. The cornerstone of 80's teen movies.

>How the fuck would you know? Do you have kids? Do you hang out with kids a lot anon. Once again your entire argument rests on assumption.
Yes, I do, that's why I'm able to make such specific fucking examples like using an iPad and unboxing videos. Because that's exactly what my nephew and all his friends do. They've even started making their own when they buy Pokemon cards.

The only time he watches old movies is when a reboot is coming out and his mother wants to show him the original movie before they see it (Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters). And he ends up always preferring the new one. He fell asleep for the original Star Wars but loved the new one. And he thinks the Alvin & the Chipmunks movies are hilarious but is bored by any of the old cartoons.

He's also obsessed with Minecraft even though he's never even played Minecraft. He's just obsessed with it because all his friends are, too.

A lot of kids are like-minded. You just need to know a handful of them and chances are, they all have the same interests because kids like to conform to what their friends are doing. Just because you grew up watching Ferris Buller doesn't mean they did.

Now you know why white and asian parents work their asses off to move into certain neighborhoods and get their kids into certain schools.

If you're the kid of a single parent, your parents don't give a fuck or if your parents are dead and your family doesn't have a lot of resources you're stuck in the 'diverse' school getting the shit beat out of you weekly while all of your classes are filled with violent, loud, rude, stupid cretins who ignore the teacher and spend the entire class fucking around.

I'd say it's a testament to Peter's intelligence that he managed to get into high school with his drive to succeed intact.

>>93769903
The type of school he's in has a system that is based on real ones in NYC where they are top-tier schools that do not discriminate based on race, economic background, etc. The only real requirement is top grades, but other than the, the selection process is nearly blind. They survive almost entirely on donations and reputation.

Your entire argument has been "no they don't", and getting really angry at the idea that kids would have learnt some 80's pop-culture references thanks to the internet and their parents.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off isn't some obscure shit, anon. It's been spoofed and referenced since it came out. Just the other year it was a huge superbowl thing. I'm not even American and even here people get when you're referencing it. You'd have to be literally 5 to not know anything about it.
>>
If they didnt want you to think of her as the new MJ they would have given her a different name.

It really is that simple. Anyone arguing that this is a new character rather than an MCU MJ is like trying to argue that Spider Ham Peter Porker is an entirely original hero unrelated to Spider-Man Peter Parker.

>>93770048
>Do I think that most people, including kids cause this shit is in cable, have seen the movie at least once?
TV is dead. Kids NETWORKS are struggling, the fuck you think kids are wasting their time watching Ferris Buller re-runs on some movie channel?

>Do I think the movie is extremely well-known in pop culture and therfore showing the exact same scene you're referencing is redundant.
Except your entire argument is that it's kids who will get the reference. They won't. Especially considering that entire scene was silent and had no music which was a key part of the reference. Without it, it's just a guy running through a backyard frantically.

I doubt you even get all the 80's references in an average Family Guy episode, let alone kids.

Guess what? Some kids DID get that reference. I know, it's mindblowing to think that some kids catch references that other kids don't, or that kids your age might have understood things you didn't. But the crucial part is that the kids who DIDN'T get that reference wouldn't have been better off if the cartoon had suddenly started playing Peter Lorre movies in the middle of everything, just to make sure they got who and what the character was referencing. Because that's a terrible idea.

How the fuck do you not know that Soylent Green is people when that's the whole thing people always shouted? It's literally the entire reference. Do you live in some third-world shithole where nobody ever brought up soylent green? Or do you mean that you didn't know where the reference came from? Because that means fucking nothing.

I can guarantee that all kids today have watched movies from the 80s. Most should at least know what Ferris Bueller is even if they haven't seen it. If some kids don't get it, so what? It's moronic to explain the joke.

You think you're an expert on all children because you know one, it's unbelievably retarded.
>>
>>93771069
>or didn't get the reference
Get what? The entire reference is "Soylent Green is people!", how in the hell do you not know what Soylent Green is just based off of that? How did you even realise that you didn't know it, did you have some weird friend asking you "do you know what Soylent Green is?" and then you couldn't answer him?

If what you were really saying is that you didn't know what movie that's from then that's beside the point, because you could still recognise a pop-culture reference just from how often it's repeated. Just as a kid could recognise that a cartoon was referencing Peter Lorre without having seen all of his movies.

That's never been the argument, you retard. The argument is that it's a part of pop-culture that 90% of people know because that's what makes it pop-culture. We're not arguing that all kids know the name of the bus-driver in Ferris Bueller or some other esoteric knowledge like that, just the bits that are famous and has been referenced countless times. Beyond that the argument was also that doing the reference and then making sure everyone got it by explaining the reference is bad film-making, just as when you explain your joke to make sure everyone understood it.

You realize how many fucking pop-culture references are out there? You think kids are aware of every single one of them? Ferris Buller isn't at the same level as the Matrix slow-mo or "Who you gonna call?". As far as pop culture references go, it's probably in the middle ground as being recognizable to kids. You think most kids would also get a Gremlins or Breakfast Club reference?

And there's already been a dozen posts telling you the joke would have been better if blank instead or that it was probably done for licensing whatever purposes, yet you're so fucking hellbent on insisting that this one moment somehow dragged down the entire comedy of the film, you're being literally autistic about it.

Losing elections tends to make the winners super arrogant and make the losers super pissed. What happened in 2008 after Democrats got Obama and a Senate supermajority along with control of Congress?

These things are cyclical. They are ALWAYS cyclical. Even if Republicans keep winning for the next 20 years, eventually libs will wise up, run the next FDR, and smash conservatism to ribbons.

Anyways, I'm legit mad about the monument. It's one thing to paint a character as a radical she. That can be fun. Look at boondocks. It's another to have the fucker that works at the monument say what she said was true.

They could've made ScarJo a supporting character. Regardless, they still failed, which means they changed a character's race for no reason and rejected actors who would actually fit that character's role. Why are/were you not similarly angry about that?
Also, in Zendaya's case, capeshit sells no matter what, and teenagers in the current year like Zendaya a hell of a lot more than Scarlett Johanssen. Which, of course, means you have more reason to be okay with Spiderman now.

It was a huge "guys we're having a party tell everyone" party, she just invited Peter at that point because it was clear he wouldn't show up if she didn't. If she didn't care about Peter her first instinct on him hearing about the party wouldn't be to invite him with coy eyes and shit, and then immediately greet and complement them when they showed up at her party. She would have just done a "oh you came".

Regardless, that doesn't change her origin. Feelings of isolation from one's culture don't negate what that person actually is. Otherwise, all white American weebs are to be considered Japanese and depicted as such whenever possible.

If the character has a Japanese name, was made by Japanese people, and the story is set in Japan and/or made with a Japanese audience primarily in mind, it's pretty safe to say they're Japanese.
In much the same way, if a character has a white name, was made by white people, and the story is set in a white country and/or made with a white audience primarily in mind, it's pretty safe to say they're white.
It's really not as ambiguous as you think. The average anime character is not white because they usually fit the first description. I think it's just that gaijin self-insert too much, to the point of mistaking that self-insertion for reality. It's near-delusional.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. She's drawn white, depicted as white, said to be white by the japs and you're the one going on about how she isn't white. Anime characters are almost universally drawn white because almost all slants look that same and because it's a sin over there to stick out. That's not a new thing that's been apart of them for literally hundreds of years. Actually I think there are two races. Asians and whites. The rest are subhumans.

They do, you're just too stupid to see it.
When Japanese people make live-action versions of anime, they always pick Japanese actors. There are a shitload of white weebs who would jump at the chance to portray anime characters, but they still choose Japanese people because those characters are primarily Japanese. Sorry I triggered you.

Ok, lets break this down you fucking moron...

>This black-haired character
Yeah, she has black hair -sometimes-. She also has red and blue hair. Depending on what body she is.

Hell, sometimes she's bald. Sometimes she even has a dick. As she switches bodies on the regular. At one point she was a black dude. Why aren't you ranting and raving that the Major isn't played by black guy?

>named "Motoko Katsuragi"
Which was name assigned to her by Section9 and roughly translates to "Electric Sword", symbolizing that she's their mechanical weapon.

>who lives in Japan
Yeah, in the fictional place called New City. You won't find that anywhere on a map.

>and is masquerading as the average person
She literally is not. Pretty much her whole existence is Section9 work. That's the entire point of the story you dense piece of shit. She's trying to understand what it means to be HUMAN, when her body is 98% artificial.

The entire story is about how race, gender, sexuality and other superficial stuff like that is utterly irrelevant and is an exploration of what it means to be HUMAN in a cyberpunk world where you can have nearly all of your body be mechanical.

Anyone who pulls the "Wah! She needs to be Japanese!" bullshit is just some idiotic SJW and has literally missed the entire message of Ghost In The Shell.

For the sake of money, not because they necessarily agree or care who the lead actors/actresses are. Otherwise, they would've hand-picked them themselves.

They shoulda called her mary sue. She was an edgy stereotype of a know-it-all teen played straight like we were actually supposed to see her as smart, and then at the end of the movie everyone loves her, FOR NO REASON.

She's done nothing to endear anyone, and has only been an asshole, but at the end of the film everybody is hugging her.

Peter has dated all kinds, and the girl in this movie was fine as a love interest, this woman is such a shitty everything that I retch at the thought of her "character" getting any more screen time in any other movie. She was very clearly Pascal's idea, and it's fitting no one likes her. Her and the guatemallan shrimp faggot who thinks he's flash were the worst parts of this movie.

Nah son. If for some retarded unknown reason Taylor and Zendaya offered themselves to me I'd choose Zendaya instantly.
>>
I hate that they namedropped MJ. Its one of those retarded "reveals" that's shoehorned in so that normies can feel good about themselves for catching some piece of "nerdy XD" trivia. It is completely pointless. The character isn't Mary Jane and acts nothing like Mary Jane so why does she have to have the same nickname? Why can't she just be Michelle? You can't have your cake and eat it too. Just like JGL being revealed as Robin.

Twerking is gross. Whatever sexual interest you MIGHT get from that should be more than countered with the lowering of opinion you have for the skank.

That's some long reach you got there.

>Twerking is gross

That's like your opinion, man. It doesn't change the fact that Zendaya > Taylor Swift.

Not reading through the thread, but did some dumb weeb trying to project onto anime characters say they're drawn white and totally ignore that gaijin are either drawn exactly the same as everyone else, if they are cute guys/girls, or drawn like big nosed, round-eyed and square jawed tards playing on Japanese stereotypes of gaijin like Amercan stereotypes on blacks?

>>93777969
The way I see it, it depends on the show. If it takes place in Japan whether it be actual Japan or Fantasy Japan then no matter they eye/hair/skin color they are Japanese until stated otherwise. On the other hand shit like FMA which obviously takes place in fantasy Germany and Baccano which takes place in prohibition era America the characters are anything but Japanese unless stated otherwise.

Trump is the personification of America. I can't think of any more American man than Trump.
>>
Man I wish we could ban /pol/ threads
>>
>>93778087
Yeah, I totally agree with that. That's the way I tend to see it too. I don't get why people are so desperate to project onto anime characters or cartoons in general. It's pretty easy to gauge the context of the cartoon and figure out who/what the characters are.

Yah, bretty much.

I love how some manga and anime play up the ungainliness of Euro/American characters -- "Blood and The Last Vampire" makes Saiya's American handlers look 8'-10' tall, with loading-cranes for arms, and folding telephone-poles for legs.

If some character's name is Toshiro, he's prolly Japanese, while, say, Jimmy Hotdog, Manuel Chorizo, or Klaus Von Schnitzel, he prolly ain't even Asian.
