I would love a Steel movie. Plus the giant hammer would be super cool in fight scenes.
Well, you're certainly free to lean that way. Doesn't change that all signs point to a race swapped Clark. Every article written has been assuming it's Clark, the way everyone interviewed about it says things that only make sense if it's a black Clark Kent. The only possible evidence that they aren't race changing Clark is the fact that they haven't come out and actually said "It's a black Clark y'all." And that's probably only a matter of time.
I feel like "Kazam" is the far more infamous Shaq movie, so Steel's cinematic reputation shouldn't be bad enough to prevent him from appearing again.

I don’t know if ‘Iron Man with Thor’s hammer’ is a direction WB would be too eager to go in.
One of the heads of Marvel used Steel and Catwoman to justify NOT doing Black Panther and Cap Marvel.
The HEAD of Disney confirmed that. Now if that was going on at Disney IMAGINE what other studios were doing.
We pay attention to what you greenlight or what you are trying to get.
The CW has been around for 15 years. 9 of those years have excluded POC lead shows. Nikita & Jane The Virgin mark the FEW times they chose to target WOMEN of COLOR. Otherwise that network only went for shows that would attract WHITE WOMEN. It also most put them out of business. They had to ax their local new shows because that is how bad it was. The DC shows SAVED them.
Some of these studios LOOK for a reason to exclude us. As one person pointed out-"a black show with ratings will still get the axed in favor of a overhyped white show."
Static Shock could NOT get a toy line despite killing everyone in the ratings not named Digimon. Meanwhile Max Steel with low ratings did.
The Hughleys was ABC's HIGHEST rated new show in season 1. It got renewed LAST MINUTE. While Sports News got an early renewal with low ratings.
The reason 90210 existed was because Fox got told to screw itself after the show that they WANTED saw the changes Fox wanted done. That show in question??? Degrassi-the show that gave us Degrassi Next Generation. Degrassi was diverse. 90210 was NOT and Aaron Spelling apologized for it in 1993.
Tyler Perry told off the studios when he saw the changes THEY wanted.
It's NOT by accident on some shows the POC (especially black male) is the least developed.
That is pandering to an echo chamber.
Most folks don't know that movie is on dvd. I never saw it in a store and nobody shows that movie on network tv.When was the last time you remember people talking about the Shaq movie? It doesn't really have a presence in pop culture.
Because what they got at times doesn't measure to what could have been.Heck, a lot of her fans even complain about what we do get and not always for a good reason.
Remember Wonder Woman almost had her own toy line with Fire and Ice (using She-ra toy molds) in the 1990s.
Yet like Static someone thought no one would buy them.
I'm not talking about years past, I'm talking about how much content Wonder Woman has this year, all of it showing great care for the character, even if not in the way some people want. But all of the content she's had portrays her as an important hero. Yet there are fans that actually say this is the worst state Wonder Woman has been in, which is not true in any way whatsoever.
We know what the character could be at her best (Martson, Perez, Rucka, Jiminez) so why should we settle for less or anything mediocre?
DC's also done a lot damage by adapting the Zeus origin for her movie and making it the prevailing origin for her for the general audience.
We may be getting more content but there are valid complaints about all of them.
This. Making her Zeus's daughter really tarnished Wonder Woman. WW84 made things even worse by making her a rapist ( just like Zeus). DC needs to return her clay origin back. As for Cassie, a better origin for her is to be the daughter of a goddess and a human. I won't object to making Cassie of Greek ethnicity since the name Cassandra is Greek. Donna should have her Pre-Crisis origin back.
