Will Gaying up of Superman gain viewers or turn off the base ,what if Superman has to bend over for something toward the camera,Helllooooooooooooooo Friscooooooooooooooo!
Yeah I think they are taking the wrong approach, if you want guy characters in stuff make them new characters.. don't try to assimilate everything that was already established.. because if it doesn't work out and you lose some of the original fan base from making that decision then you are stuck..
I can accept gay being ok with the general population, but remaking superheroes in the gay image is pretty fucking disgusting and a huge "fuck you" to life long fans. Seriously, people? Just make some new superheroes who ARE gay! If they flop then ta-fucking-da, they sucked. Try again or gtfo of the industry, stop ruining MY childhood.
My husband doesn't even like when they change the ethnicity of the character. Like making Nick Fury black in the new avengers movie. Comic creators are better off making new characters then re-vamping the originals people love.
I was kind of taken aback when I saw Samuel playing Nick Fury, probably because I've always known him as a white man growing up. I still find it strange, but not offensive, especially if they can pull off the character well in film. I haven't Seen Avengers yet, so I'm not sure if Samuel did.
He justs looks at it as if the character has been like that since the begining over 80 years ago, why all of a sudden change them now. To please everyone? Fuck that. Make a new character, like that gay french-canadian x-men.
Northstar (the gay french-canadian superhero) has been a part of the X-men comic and cartoon, as well as the Alpha Flight comic series, for quite some time. He was the first gay superhero.
"Northstar debuted in Uncanny X-Men #120 (April 1979) as part of the Canadian government sponsored team Alpha Flight, who seek to take Wolverine of the X-Men into custody.
In Alpha Flight #106 (1992), writer Scott Lobdell was finally given permission to have Northstar state, "I am gay". "
The controversy is that he is getting married to his boyfriend, not that he is gay. And nothing about him is new.
I mean that they made a character gay, not changing a straight character gay. I don't know how long Northstar has been around, I don't read comics, I watch Simpsons & Futurama
open your mind guys just because he wears a tight outfit it doesnt means hes gay...henry cavill its a cool actor...he worked hard for this movie...how come no one actually complained about superman wearing that funny red underwear!!!
So if youre fav superhero was say Wonderwoman and they decided to change her to a muscle bound stocky dyke in jeans with a mullet would you be wanting to see that wonder woman or the one you grew up with ?
it makes no sense what are you saying...because superman is not really changing his outfit its tighter...if i see wonderwoman with a super sexy outfit showing big boobs i will still go and watch it ...and i wouldnt think its for men only...the same goes here...i find superman this way more appealing and not necessary gay but thats my point of view!
I for one have nothing against gay people. BUT the way they changed Supermans basic style was for gays and women to enjoy. Not for Straight men.. Women and gays will love it, but I think the base of the fans which are mostly straight men will not wanna see this guy prance around in a skin tight latex suit..
Compare Adam West's batman suit to George Clooney's. His suit has gotten pretty gay over the years. Started with a guy wearing a gray set of loose tights. And wound up having nipples, 8-pack abs, pecs, and super chiseled muscles everywhere.
yes didnt much care for that version of the dynamic duo either,,and as you may know that movie killed batman for a while.. Lets see what this does for Superman.
