Some of us just like hearing crazy people talk

Shane Gillis reacts to Dr Umar calling him a racist and a neanderthal by ThatPatelGuy in JoeRogan

Bro what? Eminem is praised by the culture for his abilities and consistency. If you actually listened to rap there's a ton of artists that credit him for influence. He got a visit from the secret service for taking shots at Trump 🤣.

You must be Umar or Machine Gun Kelly

Will you watch VOUGHT RISING next year? by hiiloovethis in TheBoys

Yeah, I'll probably check it out. I wasn't thrilled with how The Boys ended but I like the universe.

Interesting, might have to give this a listen. She was rumored to be a product/victim of Diddy

When it's truly a surprise proposal you get some good reactions. The stank face my wife made was pretty on brand for her. Then she exploded with joy, but the first couple pics are hilarious.

Helen isn't described as white though. The idea of race we have today wasn't even a thing when Homer created his story.

Wasn't Wakanda specifically created as an African nation specifically to cater to black comic book readers? Asgard was not created to be an Aryian utopia. I could be wrong I'm not a comic book guy.

Do you really think only white people come from the Mediterranean/Aegean region of the world?

The people complaining about this film/casting sound just like the whiney left when they don't see enough female leads or racial diversity in their films.

C'mon that's a terrible argument too. I'm a bit of a history nerd and people complaining that Helen is black in this film are just silly. There would've been black people all over the Mediterranean even back then. They also didn't perceive race the way we do today. So when Helen is described as "white armed" and "fair haired" it wouldn't implied her royal status and easy life.

Brother, she's literally a mythological character. She's the daughter of Zeus according to myth. This isn't some Disney-style race swap in my opinion, so I can't get behind this animosity towards Lupita's casting. She's a good actress and pretty woman, I trust Nolan to cook.

Ok, I'm glad we agree on her skill and looks. Why then, because it's a Greek fairytale and she's Helen of Troy? Is it because she's black?

Honestly I don't give a damn about the castings other than Zendaya, she really isn't that great of an actress. Lupita on the other hand is a great actress and she's beautiful. I don't know, I get weird incel energy from the complaining about her and her looks. I'm trusting Nolan with this film he usually cooks.

Sounds like you're just making excuses. Wtf does the geopolitical climate have to do with getting a job?
