Apparently, X-men movie poster promotes violence against women

[narwhalParticipant]

This is just absurd…

one of many articles out there…

The problem seems to be that the billboard doesn’t have any context, so someone who knows nothing could assume that the billboard is saying it’s ok to choke a woman.

The hypocrisy and idiocy is all over the place with this one.

Ok. Then do it.

And racism against blue skinned people.

A sentient creature with blue skin and scales is not a woman, its an entirely different species.

A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

[RhettParticipant 637]

Wimmin hit more than men.

Single guys come home, look at what’s in the fridge, and go to bed. Married guys come home, look at what’s in bed, and go to the fridge.......But the best representative of MGTOW is…………… an empty chair,.

Who would be inspired to do so by such an advertisement….an alien species?

[alien] – “we come in peace……..o you choke ur women?”

This could be the most ridiculous post I’ve ever written.

I don’t even remember this happening in the movie.

All I remember seeing was all the women avoiding getting injured most if not all the time and when they did get injured, all they would get is a bump on the head at most.

This new movie does have some pretty bulls~~~ moments in the fights that protect and the women and harm the men.

Western modern movies are s~~~ for this very reason, because whenever the women fight the men, the fights don’t seem convincing like in older movies.

I could have just as easily been some cartoonish and grotesque female mutant strangling a male character and there wouldn’t have been a peep.

Although there would have been plenty of chirping about female empowerment because of a poster like that. Even though it was totally unrealistic and without truth.

I think C-List actress Rose Mcgowan is just jelous of how successful Jeniffer Lawrence is.

"We didn't start the fire. It was always burning. Since the world's been turning" "A world that vilifies men only breeds a generation of men that feel no empathy towards women" “In a woman’s mind , there is really no such thing as a ‘we’. In her eyes, earth allways revolves around her, not the other way around. So thinking that your needs , aspirations or desires are valid enough to be persued, or even that you are entitled achive such goals, is like asking your boss for a pay rise in your very first day at the job.”

[John Woods 13Participant 2855]

Rose who?

The answer is NO. “I could but I won’t”. Memini murum!

[Deadly RaverParticipant]

I’m guessing Rose must have the mutant power of being easily offended. No, wait…………That’s normal these days.

That’s why you should never listen to SJWs ever. They are just as retarded as one can get.

Most of the useless people who complained won’t even see the movie because they aren’t X-men fans and don’t even read the comics.

If Marvel and DC continue to pander to this people they will end up writing stories where female characters always win and never get hit by male villains. Then they will wonder why the sales will dropping even faster than they already are.

Pity and contempt are siblings. You only feel pity for those you consider weak.

It’s time we all asked:

“Maybe she DID deserve to be strangled.”

I saw the movie, it kinda sucked. Maybe the dude was a cosplayer that demanded his ticket money back.

[Faust For ScienceParticipant 22557]

I saw the X-men: Apocalypse movie, and I loved the movie. While several leads are powerful women, I found the movie not to be gynocentric. I would say it is one of the least gynocentric movie I have seen a while.

Both the male and female leads were strong. Everyone acquitted themselves well.

The creators of the movie made a very good flip of the script. Both the comic and the original X-men trilogy.

Not to spoil anything, but due to the timeline changes and Raven’s choice at the end of Days of Future Past film, in this movie, Raven has spent the last ten years saving lives instead of taking lives. Much to her annoyance, she has become a mutant folk hero to younger mutants. And she does not view herself as a “hero”.

Charles and Jean in this movie are both portrayed well. With a flip script on who has to rescue who.

Erik story in the movie was tragic, but well done.

Apocalypse is a presence in this movie.

I will never think of the song, “Sweet Dreams (are made of this)”, the same way again.

The ending was solid. A progression that began in First Class. And the prequel movies series ended with this movie, it was done well. But, I hope for the sequel, and the stringer at the end of the movie points to what happens next. It is more subtle than the Days of Future Past stinger.

I find it funny that the X-men original trilogy and First Class trilogy are like the reserve of the Star Wars movies. The X-men original movies suck and the prequels rocked.

This movie even uses Star Wars to give a wonderful “take that” X-men: Last Stand.

I guess the SJW are bitching because the female characters in this movie are not overpowered and invisible. Everyone in this movie gives as good as they take. The male leads are not holding back against the women attacking them. It is a fight for their life situation, and that is how the cast treats the fights in this film.

From a gender standpoint, the movie felt balanced.

On a side note. I have also scene Captain America: Civil War. That was a good movie to. I loved both these movies. Though, Captain America: Civil War is an Avengers movies than a solo movie with Captain America. And that movie has two Stingers. One in the middle of the credits. And one after the end of the credits.

Actually, there is a skin condition that makes people be born with skin that is naturally blue. See the blue skin people of Kentucky.

And there is another condition that people can have that makes their skin scaly.

As odd as it sounds, it is possible for someone in real life to look like Raven in her natural form.

The best scene in the movie was when Quicksilver appeared. Other than that, it was pretty mediocre and boring.

So you’re telling me the first 30 minutes of the movie wasn’t gynocentric at all? It was some pretty bulls~~~ moments in that movie.

Especially during last scene where Angel and that other female villain were in. That part was f~~~ing bulls~~~.

[Ronin De NiroParticipant 200]

I’m entertained by these. I want more outrage.

The first twenty minutes of the movie dealt with Apocalypse and how he ended up in the present day Egypt. So, yes. I would say the movie was not gynocentric. Actually, likely the most powerful storyline of the movie dealt with Erik. Not Raven.

Well, I’ll agree with you when I see a fight like this in the newer X-men movies:

Not once in the new movie did a female hero or villain get injured in fights like the female villain got injured in this fight.

That’s my main problem with the new X-men movie.

Let me get this straight: Feminist rejects want to be seen and treated the same as men in movies. Here it is. Now they don’t want it?

#MANOUT

[CPT ObviousParticipant 2747]

The manginas have already bowed to their feminist masters and apologized:

“In a statement, Fox said: ‘In our enthusiasm to show the villainy of the character Apocalypse, we didn’t immediately recognize the upsetting connotation of this image in print form. Once we realized how insensitive it was, we quickly took steps to remove those materials. We apologize for our actions and would never condone violence against women.'”

Did you actually even see the movie? The action women took some fairly nasty hits. One of the women was strangled almost to the point of death.

Besides, most death scenes in films are not as graphic as the death scene you posted from the X2 movie.
