There’s an element of gayness in the movie that just doesn’t need to be there. Automatic disqualification in my book. NOT getting into my wallet.

Try again hollywierd

Well, it’s not a conservative movie. But it’s not liberal either (although it was made by and stars liberals). The short scene where the gay guy is talking about his dinner date is much ado about nothing. I liked the movie.

You might only sound half as stupid if you spelled “weird” correctly.

Captain America, that insufferable priss? Defiantly Beto.

Not even close. The Cap fought against tyranny in Avengers: Civil War and against the Nazi's in Captain America: The First Avenger. There ain't no way, on God's green Earth, that Beto would do either of those.

There are inescapable ideas that, when you break them down, are Judaeo-Christian and conservative. But I hardly think that the Marvel world is anything but a mouthpiece for progressive ideology. It oozes out of every film they make and I can hardly watch them. Endgame came dangerously close to completely obliterating the movie at one point with its blatant progressive pandering. And with the promise of a lesbian batwoman and the gender fluidity of Captain Marvel... I’m pretty much done with my childhood indulgences. Time to focus on woodworking, fishing and MAGA.

>>> Captain America, that insufferable priss? Defiantly Beto.

Kurt was talking about “that insufferable priss” (who happened to play Captain America) being definitely Beto.

Not Captain America.

As for me, I am still waiting for the Infinite War to come on tv tube “for free”.

Will not touch Captain Marvel (can't pay me enough to watch it), probably will watch the endgame (years from now, again for free on tv) just to close the circle.

Then I am DONE with the MCU.

p/s Star Trek is not conservative. Councilor Troy proudly announced “THEY” eliminated poverty on earth. No details on how, just a grandiose statement. Hint: It is not possible unless “THEY” make everybody ‘equal’.

The “unnamed extra” talking about his gay date in Endgame was the gay director of the movie!

Almost all the superhero/epic fantasy movies are conservative at heart. They are all about freedom and standing up to tyranny. Libs (including the stars of the films) are too stupid to get that. They always think the bad guy represents the current Republican president.

A couple of points the author missed, and why Endgame is not necessarily a conservative movie:

1) The inclusion of a forced "gay" relationship moment

2) The inclusion of a forced "all-female" action scene in the final battle.

Both instances felt totally forced and didn't flow with the story, but were highlighted specifically to push an agenda.

Black Panther is the only one I haven’t seen, along with End Game. I probably won’t bother with BP because from what I understand, regardless of cast color, it’s just not a good movie. We’ll definitely be watching End Game when we can watch it for free like all the others we’ve watched.

We can’t afford to pay to watch flicks. I’m sure leftist hollywood understands. They can call me Juan instead of John if it makes it easier for them.

I think End Game will probably be more fitting of a name than they realize. Since they’re about to go full gender wacko, they’ll never top End Game in $$$. Their profit on a graph will start looking like the NFL’s or an obama economy.

I took my son to see it, and just kept thinking that this 3 hour movie could have been over in 20 minutes if Superman had shown up.

I don’t care what it is.

Marvel killed off every reason I’d want to go see it.

The original Star Trek was pretty conservative, if not perfect. Thre’s a better article about it than this one but I can’t find it right now.

A small concept that seems to escape the undergraduates on this forum who often appear to be nonstop critical of all things MCU:

 Kurt Schlichter NAILS IT.

ALL the time.

EVERY time.

It wasn’t conservative or liberal, but it wasn’t all that good a movie. I thought it was just strung together.
