yeah. alot of us have become overly sensitive of the tokenism.
it makes sense here. Even if Kirby's art is not entirely diverse..
For those who want a bit more of an explainer.
EA retard "explains" things, that should have been in the trailer.
Guardians of the Galaxy. Trailer 1. Remember, when only comic fans had any idea who these people were? and here we have a trailer. "star lord" who? "then rollcall, explaining who they are. fnking nailed it. Then, even without showing the villain, and setting up the threat, shows them being bad ass and that this is going to be an action movie staring misfits, and bad-asses.
THIS trailer starts off with a nonsense Anachronistic song. how the hell does this even relate? EA retard says it makes sense, since its an end of the world threat. which is retarded, because the song is very expressly not about the End of the world. Its about someone who had their whole world shattered when someone didn't love them anymore, and left. The song would only make sense if this movie is actually about a breakup, or death of a loved one.
This trailer utterly fails at introducing the characters. it doesn't give us their names. Doesn't establish our myths and legends are based on them.
Mekkari=mercury.
zuras-zeus
Thena/Azura-Athena
Sersi-Circi
Ikaris/Icaris
gilgamesh
etc..
(the greek gods actually exist in Marvel, so there is some sillyness with the Eternals and greek gods living together and being friends, and sharing lol)
It should have named them, and established that. The heroes of legend, are real, and coming back. (bonus points if they had Herc as an easter egg.)
Maybe establish some kind of threat. The very name, "guardians of the galaxy" says what they are going to do. We saw outlaws, misfits, prisoners.. but again, they CALL themselves "Guardians of the galaxy" we know its not going to be heist movie(or "just" one).
