HEROPHILE: Hollywood as a tool
scribbleskhan:
Watching New-Trek, you are cheering for a white male who has inherited his father’s position. Never mind the deaths caused by his inexperience and poor judgement. You are compelled by an antihero who is no longer portrayed as a man of color; no, only a white man could be so…
Yes, money is the motivator. Unfortunately, whether or not the psychological effect is intentional does not matter. The effect is the same.
And while other superheroes such as Wonder Woman follow different paths of origin, they are not the ones drawing in millions at the box office. It is the rich and or/privileged white males who are presented as heroes.
You have missed the point.
