Raven Symone puts her foot in her mouth, again.
I think all that hair dye must have affected her brain.

Eh she was a high school detective. I have read most of the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew but it was a long time ago.

They will... ONE DAY. But if they leave it to long, they'll be playing catch-up (and not reap the benefits). I'm looking forward to one day having a gay solo series at Marvel; just not looking forward to the smugness which they'll pat themselves on the back over doing it (it's 2015; you're already behind the times!)

Yeah no denying one demographic is smaller than the other. I've never had a job in a creative field, but in any other job I've been to, at least when it gets to the top brass, mostly, they are all out to make money. I would think Marvel and DC's board of directors just aren't clued into what money they might be missing out on. Originally Posted by Kieran_Frost

I assume/think Marvel IS clued in on making money, and right now they think including LGBT people will decrease the money (internationally). Once more of the world is clearly okay with gay people; we'll see Marvel follow suit. Originally Posted by bloodofthegods

Well the reason they are coming after us is because we are the easier target and have that stat of being the number one consumer in the world at 16 trillion a year.
Plus outside of the indy black books-no one else is trying to get us with showcasing us. They know their books will eat up more space that Valiant, IDW and others-no matter how superior many of those book are.
They are going after the group that will get them the most attention beyond the first issue.
Plus when we look at history who gets the attention?
If Johnny Storm was gay in that movie-would we still be seeing death to that actor like we see with Michael B. Jordan? You would see some complaints but you would see more praise for thinking outside the box.
Look at Kevin Keller-we saw some complaints but it died down.
I think we will see an increase in LGBT content-right now everyone is in I want all the attention mode.

So what do people think of the idea of Cruell Deville getting a movie? Also what did you guys think of the Maleficent film?

From my "100 Greatest Films" review thread on CBR (http://community.comicbookresources....lms-quot/page6) Originally Posted by Agent Z

The twisting of the main premise is fine, I like the idea "the villain" of the film is the curse NOT the witch, I liked darkening of Stefan, the crow being a familiar who could change into a man and Angelina Jolie is visually perfect in the title role. It’s a shame the film couldn’t come up with a way to ‘lighten’ Maleficient that didn’t involve tearing down the three strong women from the original Disney animated feature; turning once caring, determined and brave fairies into bumbling, talentless buffoons. Ultimately the script and the film never seemed to believe in the concept, which is a shame because actually… it could have been really good. Some tweaking, some smarter dialogue, it didn’t require much; a pity.""We are Shakespeare. We are Michelangelo. We are Tchaikovsky. We are Turing. We are Mercury. We are Wilde.

Yeah they are in the desire to make money but you have those who want to control what gets you that money. Originally Posted by bloodofthegods

YET we will still hear excuses about black films don't make money. While seeing the same set of white guys get film after film made and bomb at the box office.
See we all understand taking risks but DC is still SCARED of white comic book fans. They are so scared that group will stop buying books if they try.
At least Marvel can say they took that risk and if it fails-NO ONE can say they didn't bring it on Powerman & Ironfist & Black Panther. No one can say they didn't try.
See fear is what holding many companies back-that fear of ticking off that certain demo.
So we see bits and pieces. Sooner or later they get desperate.
