Why doesn't Marvel just get Antoine Fuqua?
>Is black
>Is good
>Isn't expensive
>Isn't hard to work with
>In demand
>Got biz cred
>Hardly says "No" to stuff

Why not get a good director regardless of ethnicity?

They'll be labeled racists if the director isn't black. It's just the world we live in.
>>77710099
>>Is good
Ehhhh
>>77710673
Training Day 4life
>>77710247
Only by racists.
>>77710099
Foes he have self-respect?
>>77710099
What has he done?
>>77710099
>Is good
>>77710099
I think he's busy doing a Fast and Furious or somthing.

That's F. Gary Gray.

Training Day, King Arthur, The Equalizer, Olympus Has Fallen, the upcoming remake of The Magnificent Seven.
After three of the current higher profile black directors declined what is obviously selection based on race, no black director with a shred of self respect will touch this film.
Like, what is driving directors away? Do they want it to be more focus on racism and how fucked Africa while Marvel wants it light?

Marvel director jobs are really a joke in Hollywood, since only the producers have say on tonyent and final cuts. They might as well just be holding a camera. Add to the fact that they're seeking only black directors because this is a black superhero, which is pretty fucking racist.
>>77711961
They get no creative freedom working for Fiege which is why they can only afford to find TV directors to work for them.
>>77711961
Marvel non subtle tokenism. They know Marvel just wants them because of their race.
>>77711961
Ava DuVarney wanted it to be too different from what Marvel wanted.
F. Gary Gray preferred that sweet Fast and Furious money.
Coogler is gonna blow up after CREED and will probably stick to original stuff for now.
>>77710247
I think it has more to do with them covering their butts in it case it fails.
>>77710247
Marvel set themselves up for that by stating only black directors were needed. No one asked them too.
>>77712188
SJWs did.
>>77710146
Because compromising with racists on this issue is more profitable than fighting it out.
