Phase II of the Marvel comic book cinematic universe is going to involve a few less of our classic superheros in favor of a bold new array of diverse and inclusive characters. Yes, Marvels going a lot more ethnic, and a lot more gay because whats cooler than finding out that your new favorite Avenger enjoys his skintight latex suit for far more than just crime-fighting purposes?

I’m never watching another Marvel Comics movie again.
Why does everybody have to f*** up everything decent?...
Captain Castro District.
The best line in all the Marvel movies is in the first Avengers after Thor flies off and Captain America says Theres only one God. And Im pretty sure he doesnt dress like that.
Body positive...when pigs fly.
Why doesn’t Disney just move the queer pride parade into the parks already.
Yes! I loved that line and thought of it while typing. Too bad the actor is such a lib though Captain America isn't.
It is scary that our entire entertainment culture is now defined by ambiguously gay characters running around in their under ware.
Get ready for:
I’m glad I grew up in the ‘60s and ‘70s, when America still existed.
This is not necessary or ethical.
Dominatrix of the Universe
Yeeeck!
Body Positive means fat broads, transexuals, and body pierced freaks.
Fat men are still body shamed as obese, dad bods, etc.
And the progressives will use taxpayer money to “buy tickets” to these movies so they can be declared successful.
Just like they do with book sales.
Well, Marvel Studios is going to be as profitable with that decision as Marvel Comics was.
Maybe in a few years they’ll lose enough money that they’ll have to sell the IP to some other company that is actually interested in giving fans what they want.
I wish I could remember which FReeper said, "You don't get to live in the country you grew up in."
Do they plan to show them fellating and buggering one another?
For the most part I am fine with not including Christianity in the MCU because it would tend to mock Christian faith even done with the best intentions. If you look at the background for comics they are really a pagan mythology I like to punfully refer to as Geek mythology. In the comic universe there are cosmic forces and beings that imbue the heros and villains with godlike powers and abilities. While this makes interesting stories that can explore aspects of human failings like the Greek myths of old, people who believe in a Judeo-Christian God against that background would just come off as superstitious and foolish.
The Daredevil character in the Netflix series (technically part of the MCU) is portrayed as Catholic. I was actually bothered by the depiction and it turned me off from the series because it felt too out of place and sometimes disrespectful. His faith, such as it is, is pointless when as a viewer you know the larger scale of things. As St Paul pointed out if the things we believe as Christians is in vain then we are the most miserable of all people. So I say leave Christianity and Christians out of it.
