How did they not think, “Oh, the first superhero movie to be nominated for an academy award was BLACK PANTHER, maybe these other POC lead movies/shows could do well if we went back and saw what we did right in Black Panther, and use some of the same techniques”
people forget that marvel is a BUSINESS. marvel brings disney a shit ton of money, so they’re gonna do what they can to make money- including expanding the universe as much as they can.
they’re going to promote what they believe will sell. based on their shitty treatment of poc, they dont believe poc movies/projects will sell.
dont believe me? look at their promotion for shang chi, t’challa’s what if episode, sam wilson as captain america
it pisses me the fuck off that poc have continuously have to fight for their spot in media. and have to do their own promotion and marketing. we deserve to have just as much spotlight.
the disney ceo called shang chi an experiment bc it’s going to be released exclusively in theatres- like almost every other marvel project? shut the fuck up dude
