And what politics would those be? Let's not get this locked before the announcement comes. Maybe we shouldn’t get on the internet and say dumb things then

Maybe we shouldn’t get on the internet and say dumb things then I didn't see anything "dumb" in his comment (except the insistence that JP is a good movie). People are entitled to want the escape that comes from entertainment. I am sure that poster and I might be very far apart, politically, but let's not pretend that Hollywood, and the entertainment industry, in general, has decided to add diversity and political views into stories where the positive intentions might be better served in a fully-funded project developed about/around marginalized groups. On-topic, anybody thinking this could be a Luchasaurus exclusive, only?

Imma say it one time and one time only because this entire tangent is gonna get wiped from the thread anyway; women, minorities, and trans characters existing is not “political”

I agree. My point, and maybe one that could have been expressed in a better manner, is that let art be art, and instead of forcing stories to include, maybe just invest in projects that are inspired by, created, and developed by said groups.

So "their" art won't be so intrusive to art that would make others feel comfortable?

I think** what he meant was more in mind with making them more than just "token representation" and"checking a box". Not unlike how we have lots of special funding towards indigenous projects in Canada.

If it is anything Marko Stunt related, I truly hope it is a exclusive.
I do not want to have to buy him in the unrivaled line.

My comment was directed towards Hollywood shoe horning politics or anything else that isn't needed or dosen't add anything to the story it's only there to try and get brownie points. I don't want my entertainment to unessarily lecture me or make me cringe. I have no issues with any group, people or narrative if that's what the story is calling for.

CM Punk dressed as a dinosaur RSC exclusive is my guess for the swerve reveal.

CM Punk dressed as a dinosaur RSC exclusive is my guess for the swerve reveal. Man luchasaurus would be pissed. He's very outspoken about Barney, and how proud he is of Jurassic park for casting real Dino's. Cm Punk dressed up would be such a step back for Dino representation.
