Why are they marketing She-Hulk as some sort of sex symbol? Butt-reveal? Really?

Lets ignore the fact that she looks straight out of the Shrek series, and focus on the actual problem with "Girl Power!" in movies lately-- the first 15 seconds into a trailer and all we get is a butt-reveal.

Then, not a minute into it, a literal QUOTE FROM THE TRAILER "Girl, your ass looks crazy right now!" a few random shots of "HULK POWER!" and then it just goes back to her swiping through Tinder and dating random guys as She-hulk but like... Why?

Is it not possible to have a female superhero without forcing them into the "sexy bombshell" stereotype and have that be their entire character development?

What woman actually feels represented by this? What father would be proud to take their daughter to see this? I know nothing about She-hulk other than "shes hot(?)" based on this trailer; so if someone has some insight I'd love to hear it.

​

Edit: It sounds like everyone is wayyy too horny for Buff Shrek so I'll just leave this here. I don't know the comics but it sounds like her character IS based on being sexy, so I'll leave you all to enjoy your green fantasy of being lifted by a bigger woman than you- and go enjoy some actual story elsewhere.

So I just finished Jessica Jones

I'm a little bit upset that Trish is going to the raft, granted she did some bad things, but what bothers me is that we didn't get a continuation of this. Also, wtf is up with Hogarth, she was all over the place this season. Complete villain turn and all. submitted by /u/pkjoan [link] [comments]

Bitter thoughts after Loki ending

Alright so I just finished Loki and I just…ugh idk. Yall im so sad I get that he gets his throne and he helps everyone. But I just wanted him to have friends and be happy. I know it’s unrealistic but I just wanted him to have friends and be happy. I think it sucks that he wont get that maybe that’s just me because sometimes I feel like Loki in the aspect of being looked down on. I just wanted him to be there with his friends what do you guys think? submitted by /u/Candid_Wafer1587 [link] [comments]

The first 2 avengers movies feel pretty different compared to a lot of the mcu

I was rewatching avengers 2012 and realized how different it feels to the rest of the mcu. It feels more comic booky and a little campy somehow? That's kind of what I really like about it though and really just find it interesting. Avengers age of ultron also has this more comic booky vibe to it. Any thoughts on this? Still some of the best and most iconic though. submitted by /u/TheIMaster64 [link] [comments]
