This guy is a real black superhero: Robert Smalls: A slave who stole a Confederate military transport, wore a stolen uniform from the Captain to impersonate him, sailed her to Union vessels past Confederate vessels using the stolen code book and hand signals, convinced the Union to fully allow blacks to fight for the union, and successfullyran for Congress in the South after the war.

THAT would make a great movie, wouldn't it? But it will never be told, because that would highlight the Republican stance towards slavery, as well as Democrat complicity in keeping slavery, so...that movie will never be made.

As for this movie, I won't see it. There are plenty of CGI based superhero movies that don't masquerade as a politically correct lesson on slavery. I am not knocking those who go, that is their business, it just isn't for me.

Exactly. Seems liberals want black who’re basic street gang hero’s.
