Current Events > The new Batwoman Trailer is pure feminist propaganda

(+) Yeah! (+)

Yea but Flash and legends is actually good. They do social warrior stuff but it doesn't diminish the show. That's gonna be this whole show's gimmick

You are getting the point of television confused. The "social warrior stuff" IS the point of the show. Same as with most movies.

*Looks at trailer*

"Eh, not interested."

It's okay to call out cringy pandering nonsense when you see it guys. It seems most of the people in this topic seething are the ones shining up their armor.

It was okay and then the end got all cringe
---

Wow. So much to unpack from that short video clip. On the positive side, she looks freaking amazing. Uh... thats all I got.
---

She would look better with longer hair.
---

Which is why I am not going to watch the show. I used to look forward to superhero shows but now with SJW-Girl, Captain Marvel, and Batwoman.....I have to pick and choose which ones I watch because I would rather not have the liberal agenda jammed down my throat.

Yuck. What have they done to one of my favorite characters?

I wonder if all the dislikes are just men or if there are any women that disliked it.

Me. I fucking hated it.

You guys should watch her in action on last falls crossover event before you freak out. She actually was part of the crossover and we got to see her in a full episode instead of just an out of context trailer and she is great. She's very cool

line was a bit cringe.
Alice? is her first foe. Interesting, but hopefully it won't wind up she only faces females/female versions of established rogues.
Lucius Fox worked for Bruce's father, so he's not going to be some 20 year old.

Keep in mind that everything in this trailer is gonna be from the pilot episode as well. Pilots have to do a lot within 40 minutes.
---

Honestly, I just want a Batman TV series, so I'll take this. That said, the trailer didn't inspire confidence.

It ticks all the boxes that a television show needs to in the modern era to not get outraged to death on twitter.

It's a no from me dawg.
---

After watching the trailer, all I can say is it must be a difficult time to be alive for easily triggered snowflakes.
---

Lmfao this looks bad, regardless of woman propaganda

No need to be triggered, I just won't watch it.

At least one of them was a Woman, me. I'm beyond tired of being treated like a child with Female characters. Femininity is pushed as a weakness and these "strong female characters" turn out to be men with boobs once you boil it down.

It's time to evolve from characters being entirely defined by their gender or their sexual orientation. I want actual characters and people that happen to be this or that, not the other way around. It's a whole discussion I'm not really alert enough to get into but that's the jist of it. I'm insulted when I see tripe like this.

If you have time please watch this video sometime, she explains how I feel better than I could. She's talking about books but it applies to all media I believe:

As someone who is kinda trying to last through the Arrowverse, I can't judge until a few episodes in.

I'm kinda hoping it's a worthwhile watch if they can stop forcing the "girl power" agenda. The whole appeal of a lot of male characters has nothing to do with them being male, but just the characters they are.

The CW and the Arrowverse have been going out of their way to show homosexuality and increased female presence. I mean nothing wrong with having those elements, but they're over-dramatizing it and seemingly trying to lure in the kneejerk viewer crowd.

Anyway in general:

Arrow Season 1/2/5 and first half of 7 were solid.
Flash Season 1, a good chunk of 2 were solid as well.

Stephen Amell is cemented as the Arrow. Grant Gustin is the Flash those actors lived up to those roles imo. It's a shame the writers are writing up the lamest shit for the Flash, though.

I was enjoying Black Lightning, but usually try to crash by the time it's on.

Supergirl is so-so. Legends is just too jumbled to care for; you can tell that's just an airing space for the "leftovers" that played minor roles in Arrow.

I mean, the entire rest of the Arrowverse has plenty of strong female characters that aren't "men with boobs." I think Batwoman might be the first main character to be of that type - if she even is that type.

Like shes going to let a man tell a woman how to be a woman.

When youre comfortable with your masculinity then this trailer isnt threatening in the least. Feminism is a non issue

Good question...

Do ya'll lack basic linguistic skills?

Someone calls her Batman. Then she says that line. It's literally just her reason for changing the costume.

It's cringe inducing garbage. They're calling her Batman because she's stolen not just his shtick but even his fucking clothes.

All superhero shit is the same.

You're mad that Batwoman is using a bat motif?

Because it's not what happened. I get the scene, but no "man took credit". It's awkwardly phrased for the situation and done that way with a purpose. Do your linguistic skills not tell you there's any other way to phrase it?

I've watched all the CW superhero shows. It's just awkwardly phrased. The writers, god bless 'em, aren't that deep. Ya'll are getting mad over a slightly shoddy line.

So you just missed the part where people are like "omg it's batman?"

And she objects to it?

I don't see why you couldn't just say it was awkwardly phrased before... I have more of an issue with people seemingly blindly defending that as if there's nothing wrong with it

As I said, I get the scene and believe the line could be altered to better express that

I didn't and don't think it's all that awkward. I'm just saying if you think there's any, it's not some malicious barb against the very concept of penis.

Clearly this show must be stopped before it gives children ideas about short hair.
---

Which in of itself isn't a bad thing. Depending on the type.
---

what the fuck are you guys smoking lmao
---

Looks like another CW show I won't care about
---

Only real gripe I have with any of this is that they're using the Nolanverse-style mask with eyebrow ridges, which I hated even in those movies. Aside from that, I think it looks fine.

I actually wish Ruby's hair was shorter; IIRC in Elegy she had a pixie cut.
---

Rumor has it that one of the important plot choices of the show is hitting the bad guys in the balls often and making sly comments about their weak spot and privilege makers LMAO.

Feminism is such a joke, imagine a show about the joker doing the falcon punch on pregnant women or something, it would never fly

imagine pretending Feminists are a monolith just so you can make generalized attacks based on the execution of one TV show.
---

lol at thinking people ripping on a lame looking show means that they are upset or fueled by nerd rage.

sure, some people fit that bill. i think most people just think this shit looks super dumb lol

Kid yells from the street, "Look it's Batman!"

Batwoman, 20 stories up: "DID YOU JUST ASSUME MY GENDER?!"
---

Ruby Rose is a terrible actress and should stick to modeling.
---

I will never understand the appeal of Ruby Rose.
---

I wish these idiots at Hollywood would know that you don't need to try hard, or let everyone know women can be ass kickers too without the obvious virtue signaling. Aliens, and Terminator 2 being excellent examples. Then again, that's what happens when you have Fedora hat tipping neckbeards, and insecure women spread across the industry.

I don't know about you guys, but when she said she wasn't going to let a man take credit for what a woman does *kisses fingers*
