Yeah. They criticized Daniel Bruhl for portraying a more serious Zemo, that is fine. Criticizing certain other people though is forbidden. Just like in middle east politics in the real world. Many people can only survive with double standards, cause they don't measure up.
@@deanc4088 The whole point is that if you have a Captain America that is not the dude who tried and retried to enlist, but then got in on the strength of his character (cf Rodger Young). Then he gets the serum and becomes a great soldier. Having a wimp as Cap is like having a cowardly, weak, non-flying Superman who needs the glasses. Same with all the chars above. From char 1 (Leeloo and the "thermal bandages" through the end). The controversy comes from people like you who got no clue. I suggest you either invent your own or something, but you should definitely shut up about stuff you got no clue on.
No, you can't run in high heels through rough terrain, like jungle vines and stones. And in the scene where she runs from the Indominus Rex or whatever, you can see that in the fast shots she's wearing much more comfortable footwear, of the same color as her high heel shoes. You can't run that fast with heel down on hard terrain, no matter how trained you are. The heels will snap and your feet will suffer. The shots in which she is in high heels were mostly in slo-mo, to hide the fact that she wasn't running very fast, and the dinosaur was CGI anyway, so you couldn't scale her actual speed in report to the dino's. She was also filmed mostly from the front, so it was easier to hide the fact that she wasn't wearing high heels. Not to mention the fact hat they wouldn't have risked having one of the main actors suffer an injury by constantly making them run in high heels. That whole shtick of her being able to run in high heels was just Mary Sue fiction bullshit.
Fun fact though: When Pamela Anderson was doing "VIP" she did a lot of running in high heels. Even climbing and uneven terrain. She was remarkably fit, but could only do it because she was also a producer and everybody else was afraid that she would twist an ankle and delay production, but everything was fine. A very rare exception to the rule.
_The Fifth Element_ was the GREATEST SciFi movie EVER... Except for maybe _Forbidden Planet._ I mean, _The Fifth Element_ had deserts, space travel, city traffic, etc. It hit so many SciFi beats and tied them in so perfectly.
If we're being entirely logical, people are--queue shock and surprise from overly sensitive critics--born naked. Same for Leeloo. The movie makers would have been justified if reconstructed Leeloo stayed naked in the surgery tube the entire time, as she was in the first few seconds, and remained naked until after breaking out. At that point, she could have stolen someone's clothes. Imagine the general who wanted souvenir pictures being striped down to his undies. But, they didn't want to make that kind of movie, so I thought the "thermal bandages" idea was a good compromise on the question of clothes vs. no clothes.
Accusing fans of being racist or homophobic because they do not enjoy gender-swapped / race swapped characters because the creatives don't know how to be creative anymore and come up with their own unique, brand new character to fit the race they want.... this is the real crime. I would argue that the person that did this video or wrote the script is projecting their own insecurities and or frustrations on all of us who enjoy things from a much more original character point of view. I know nothing about the actress who did Starfire and if she had done a character that she better represented, I have no issue with it. None at all. But Starfire already has the interesting skin color, primarily orange of some shade and, once again, to accuse people of being racist because we don't agree with the social Dei agenda being shoved down our throats to satisfy some checkbox somewhere is garbage.
@@DavidAnderson-m5c Agreed. My complaint regarding Starfire wasn't that they had cast the beautiful Anna Diop, but that after casting a young black actress, they immediately dressed her in a cliched street corner hooker costume straight out of a 70s blacksploitation film. The stylistic choice was not only grossly inaccurate, but felt subtlety racist in itself.
Noticed how criticizing Daniel Bruhl for portraying a more serious Zemo is fine though? He may be bashed without reasons even. Buy oy vey when you criticize the wrong folk....
Jumanji Welcome to the jungle should surprise no one that the females outfit was skimpy.... if you have played video games for years. That was the joke.
They even talked about it in the movie. And iirc the person was not that hot irl, so was happy with it. The pretty girl who was then in Jack Black's professor though was really complaining.
@ I think it’s much worse than that. Cultural Appropriation can be done in all innocence - This is done with malign intent. This is cultural erasure and substitution. It’s a humiliation ritual.
How come so many people compain at the skimpiness of clothes in movies? Has anyone looked at what women in real life wear now? Particularly bathing wear, its easier to find their skin than it is to identify the costume!
The overall message of this segment is "what works in one medium often will not work in another." (Glad this segment was not comparing anime to its live action versions of it.)
about jumanji saying that outfit don´t work on a jungle check the indigenous tribes in amazonian forest they go naked in they daily life example the yanomami. you Americans need to know a bit more about other places the USA isn't the world.oh and about body armor military lady´s complaint about non gender armor are uncomfortable.
I came here to reminisce and to dunk on movies that I like and don't like outfits. Not to be preached to about racism sexism or any other isms! Stop looking for the worst in everything.

It's true, the primary function of armor is protection. However, the Roman Empire made muscle shaped chest plate armor, increasing decoration and severely decreasing its protective capabilities. In RPG, bikini armor surely doesn't give much protection looking with the naked eye, but such armor often comes with enchantments.
Not sure if there are any examples of it in any games out there but a game dev could definitely just as easily apply that game logic to something like a loincloth for a male character. Just going for the most female-gazey (lol) "Conan the Barbarian" type of look for a male character (at least I think they had Arnold basically naked in that role? I've never actually seen the show) with a loincloth and some straps or whatever, and because of item enchantments it can be functionally equivalent to any more conventional looking type of armor that another character might be wearing. Actually, I suppose the Zelda games "Breath of the Wild" and "Tears of the Kingdom" had a barbarian armor set that we can point to as an example of this. Quite a bit of bare skin (granted, it's a family-friendly Nintendo game, so they don't go too risque (on the female side of things, Zelda's Gerudo dancer outfit in "Echoes of Wisdom" isn't that much more revealing than Link's barbarian look)), but still just as defensive as most (if not all) other armor in the game.
(i´not against you just saying ) gladiators barley used armor, Greek boxers fought naked you don´t need full armor just need it on the right places in medieval times the people wearing armors had to be wealthy. believe me i m European from a country were the population is known since the paleolithic. and about bikini armor don´t exist just because you are using something made of metal don´t have to be a armor. example my car is made of metal so mean it´s a tank ?
@@carlosezequiel6480 Minor correction, armor wasn't worn only by the wealthy during the Medieval period and the Renaissance. By the time plate harnesses came about, soldiers from all social statuses could afford some form of armor. The poorest might only be able to afford a helmet while the wealthiest could afford to have a plate harness made for them. But there were a lot of people in between who wore a simple gambeson (which is actually fairly protective), a mail shirt, a brigandine, or possibly a plate cuirass.
ok ! lets address the whole " homophobia /transphobia " thing !no one is afraid of homosexual ,or trans people ", they may disagree with it ( and they have that right ) but they do not fear it , they are not bigots , and certainly not racist ,because trans / homosexual is not a race , it`s a lifestyle choice , and stop looking down on heterosexual people , they are the normals , and you would not exist without them ! and homophobia /transphobia are meaningless terms dreamed up to make normal folk look bad and to make you feel special ! trust me , they do not fear you , and they do have the right to disagree with your choices ! it`s a free country ! try pushing your crap in a muslim country and see what happens ! at least in the west you are tolerated !
This whole thing is 80% woke garbage take, especially on Gene Roddenberry. It seems that today's Star Trek hates Gene and wants to deprecate his creation to garbage.
Funny how a movie stars opinion of their clothing in past moves is driven more by public opinion then any real opinion of their own. If the public still supported it, so would she. Just a bunch of hypocrites and a society full of pearl clutching goobers.
More years ago than I care to admit to, I was happily making the rounds at DragonCon & I came across an attractive young woman in a blue jumpsuit. She looked like she was a cosplayer, though I didn't recognize the character. I promptly took her picture📸. I was stunned afterwards when I saw the Baroness in a GI Joe cartoon. She was identical to the cartoon character!! So much she could have been the live model she was drawn from 🎨🦹♀️ 🖌!!
I never actually watched GI Joe growing up so I'm not familiar with that character, and in the first half of your post I was thinking of Samus in her "zero suit".
@MuljoStpho I wasn't interested in watching GI Joe either. But I either saw it flipping channels, was really bored or saw her in a comic book. But the cosplayer was identical to the Baroness as drawn in the 80's/90's GI Joe, whenever it came on.
You'll do better if you keep your BS politics out of your videos. There's a reason for Disney's failure over the past few years and it ain't the fans, sweetheart.
Way too much PC, WOKE and plain stupid commentry from your badly programmed A.I.. That your review doesn't seem to cover much of anything made before 2020 keeps it at the Farcical level. Improve your programming or leave the medium.
So we hear the reasons why fans don't like outfits must be sexist, racist or homophobic. This is where you see the divide between execs and their egos and the fans. When we get live actions of our loved comics or cartoons, we expect and want to see the new, exactly as what we remember. All you do is alienate your fan base with what you think we want instead of what we want.
The BEST sci-fi uniforms that you didn't even mention were those from Babylon 5 and how every alien race had their own style of them. But all you gave us was a review of a lot garbage shows.
Racism of the fans, had nothing to do with the rejection of Starfire's actor. It was about changing the established characters race for woke reasons. Starfire was never written as a black woman. That wasn't how she was written or created. If a white woman was chosen to blay a black super hero character in a film, You'd likely be screaming racism then too. Not to mention changing an established characters background and race for no real reason. despite what the original author envisioned. It has "Nothing" to do with racism of the fans. Though reverse racism may have entirely been why that actor was cast, instead of an actor of the race and gender of the character as written. Such Crap!
REAL armour was often EXTREMELY decorative. Like Polish Winged Hussars.# I can't be the only person in the world who thinks The Matrix the least cool movie ever. Surely everyone actually old enough to watch it in a cinema......
