>Villain does something villainous

Is this the reason why Marvlel refuses to let their villains be anything more than incompetent cardboard cutouts of mustache-twirling jobbers waiting to get BTFO by the end of the movie?

Pretty much, they called Mystique "a hero" the whole movie but this was enough to make her a victim.

The problem wasn't that it was in the movie you moron. The movie-goes choose to view this material.

The problem is that these posters glorifying violence against women are displayed openly to the public.

Glad you brought that up, it naturally extends to a larger question: do I have the right to never see anything that offends me?

"person A is hurting person B. I don't like getting hurt, it's bad, so if you're hurting someone else you must be bad. Person A is bad." Pretty simple logic. Even dogs can figure this much out.

People are just looking for reasons to get upset for the same reasons why good movies and tv shows don't really get talked about. If there's nothing to complain about, there's nothing to talk about.

>So you think that violence against man/woman or even animals is something that society accepts blindly?

Context

These are superheroes who solve problems with explosions and shooting lasers out of their eyes. Violence is an accepted part of their story narrative.

The poster in question is a stereotypical villain in a position of power over the main selling hero. JLaw is a central hero to the story. It's no different than James Bond being almost chopped in half or some fantasy character with a sword at their throat. If YOU see domestic violence or violence against women here than YOU are the problem. YOU are the one being sexist saying women should be protected purely because they are women and can't be in a position of danger in a magical realm.
>>
Seriously though, critics these have gone so far with the SLW circlejerk they lost all contact with reality.

equality means women are just as much victims of fantasy violence as men, even in advertisments

just admit feminism isn't about "equality", its about a powergrab from white women to brow beat their way into industries they have traditionally failed in and don't fully grasp.

Average plebs can't deal with bad guy's motivation. See all the Disney animation flicks, how are the bad guys? Why does Jafar want to be king? Why does Scar? Are they even bad rulers? We don't know, we just now they're there and they're evil and that's that. Marvel makes movies for children and manchildren, so that's the level you should expect

To understand what's happening in today's world you need only remember the 60's and 70's at the height of the hippie faggotry.
Back then they were even more insane going as far as to bomb stuff and massive suicides.
What we are going through right now is just another cycle of crazy leftists albeit not so crazy as the ones on the 60's.

The problem imo is that humanity thrives on hardship and war, especially white people. For the last 2000 years we were at war conquering shit, creating hard times which created hard people... Now we have no challenges at all, no hardships, nothing to fight for and everything is spoonfed to you, So people will naturally create stuff to fight for.

For leftists it's this nonsense of multiculturalism and diversity, for right-wingers it's the preservation of identity and culture. Right now you're seeing the pendulum swinging back, the rise of far-right parties to fight the left in a mechanism of self-defense. Civil war is probably coming to europe very soon. Humanity can only advance through war that's simply how it is...

This.

Children understand what stories are - the big modern lie is that kids need to be protected, which is resulting in generations of emotional retards who can't handle shit. Kids like violent stories, and they instinctively who is good and bad based just on observation.

Someone else already said it in this thread: Kids looking at that poster would know it was a villain being mean to a hero, no matter the gender of each.

Here "pep talk" involved her saying you know what if you are so fucked just slit your wrists and be done with it (I thought the same thing was fucked up in House of Cards too) but she talks to him as if he was more a burden to her than her brother. She looks at him more of a tool then anything else else, I mean what kind of apology is it if you say ok I'll promise to stop teasing you about the fact you can't have sex any more...now i'm going to go fuck the tits off of that whore. Sorry but that's kind of fucked but she gets a pass because she's a woman.
>>
>>70567756
if she were a guy, it would have been a 'playful' jab (maybe a cross), which it should be. but because she's a woman it's an issue?

at that moment she didn't see him as a tool, she saw him as a shell of himself, a person who was still afraid he would be going right back to the fingernail rippings. she wanted to know if he would even -try- to hack it during their journey, let alone be able. she says kill yourself or step it up because she still cares about theon, the man she knew, confident to the point of being cocky, not reek, this whimpering mess of a person who could barely form whole sentences at times.

its like doing some type of very illegal/financially binding act, if you're going to have someone with you, they have to be with you all the way because if they fall, you won't be far behind. there won't be time for a pick-me-up when shit's going south, so she got it all out the way now.

it was supposed to be a jab, again, like an older brother would tease his younger virgin sibling. yes it's to an extreme, but it's played for laughs, shes not trying to be cruel

idiot responses:

>In the movie...
>any comic fan knows...
>look at this scene from this other movie...

the complaint is about a promotional billboard image seen by everyone who drives by it, not about the content of the movie and not specifically shown to a person knowledegable about comics/movies
>>
>>70568004
I have to respectfully disagree, it is an issue because she is a woman and getting a pass for it, if he were a guy it they would equally be as fucked a character, again case in point House of Cards, here's the scene I'm referring to if you happen to haven't seen it yet.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhNVEDSAMYA

Now yes the energy of the scene is a lot more somber/serious but here you have Underwood "motivating" Russo to either man up or just be done with it. But because there's a pair of tits in the scene we see this as she's a strong female lead worth praise. Now I'm not saying that a gay female/male character can't be a strong lead in a major show, I'm not saying that you have to hide the sexual nature of people in hopes to not offend anyone, neither is the right way to go either. In just my opinion alone, its the fact that because of how casually she insensitive to her OWN brother's personal/sexual suffering she's acting as model showing how women can treat men as disposable as men treat women but getting praise for it because "oh hey looky there it's a female fully gay character,haven't seen on of those yet, neat!" and spreading that kind of message is a problem on both ends and it's fucking sad.

At this point I just don't get it anymore. The guys name is fucking Apocalypse. Look at him, he's clearly the mustache twirling evil man who would probably choke a baby or puppy in the same manner.

But its an issue because he's choking Mystique, a literally nobody who the movie goes out of its way to make seem like an integral, important Messianic figure.

bullshit on 'glorifying' it... it was merely an error in judgement trying to translate a scene from the movie to a contextless billboard. i agree that the billboard may trigger extreme abuse victims and should be taken down, but it's total shit to claim it was some kind of evil action on the part of the marketing department.

There's either some really bad troll arguing going on in this thread, or a good chunk of you truly are imbeciles.

A movie poster does not have the context of the scene. It doesn't matter that its blue and purple people, it's a man choking a woman. If you idiots weren't so autistic, and so hell bent on fighting sjw's and feminism, you'd know that there really are abuse victims out there who have been traumatized to the point where seeing a poster like this will trigger them. not some bullshit feminazi definition of trigger, but a legitimate trigger, and give them something like a panic attack. women who are legitimate victims of domestic violence are extremely high strung.

stop making threads on this shit. bunch of fucking manchildren

i dont think you even need to include triggering in your argument...I know what the movie is about and I still drove by those billboards and went "why the fuck did they choose that image to promote the movie?"
>>
>>70572640
couldnt agree more

listen retards the complaint is against a BILLBOARD ad with little context (the movie title is even small) and the argument is against the PUBLIC display of it. It is not against the content of the movie AT ALL

you cannot argue that without context its just a giant image of someone being choked, thats all there is to it.
>>
>>70563391
This. That was so unbelievable and retarded. They SERIOUSLY couldn't have come up with a better way to kill them? Fucking piss poor.

Why was this movie so much worse than Days? It's like leagues worse.
>>
>>70572640
See >>70563877 and hundred other billboards with male on male violence and female on male violence
>>
>>70548002
It's not a problem that he's choking a woman it's that in the context of this ad you don't know what role Mystique plays in the movie. The reason nobody complains about the trailers is because they actually give the scene and her character context. The reason it's such an issue is that someone who isn't familiar with X-Men could see this ad and it could bring up bad memories from their past. IMO Xavier fighting Apoc in the dream sequence would work much better as a still ad as it more illustrates the point of the film.
>>
When a super strong woman chokes a normal man no one bats an eye.
>>
When a man is being chocked by a woman it becomes a point of comedy. Violence against men is funny because men don't feel pain in the minds of feminist.
>>
>>70573191
>it could bring up bad memories from their past
And? we should really have to stop using ads, free speech and other of fear of triggering memories? It's a billboard, is not intended to trigger that specific person.

Do I need to, before meeting someone, ask him about what might trigger him/her? won't that also trigger him/her? Go to a fucking shrink and stop forcing everybody to change their lives for you.

He was awful. I was expecting a lot from him but he ended up being a dissapointment.
His whole character is him whining about humans controlling the world and saying how everyone should be purged so that only the strong are left to live under his rule (so like an even more Hitler version of Magneto).
The fight against him was awful too. Nigger supposedly has a shitton of powers but all he did was use some shield thingy to protect himself from all the attacks, fuck up Quicksilver a little, have an imaginary fight with Charles and then got BTFO by Jean Grey the moment she did shit.
He was like Ultron but even more bland and cliche, and not threatening at all.
>>
>>70574289
does he fuck shit up? no. He really doesn't do much, has his henchmen do most of the work, and generally just talks shit. They wasted him. The only time he came off ok was in xavier's head. Other than that, isaacs is a great actor, but as a manlet he made a horrible apocalypse.

I think the complaint is stupid but the same time, I think the poster is stupid and not well thought out.

that's the point. This isn't a depiction of real life, even if you exclude that they're fucking blue. It's a piece of promotion. You're not trying to capture a moment in the movie, you're trying to capture the overall sense of the movie, and that's that the good guy is fighting the the bad guy. You're also trying to appeal to the masses, including the trigglypuffs out there. For the people influenced by billboards, they'll see the bad guy dominating the good guy and say "I want to see that" or not, and the retards who got butt hurt by it would say "oh look at her, you go gurl!" and not get angry about it.
