You totally missed the point when you said "fictious" characters are real.
It's "fic ious" you idiot.
And they can do whatever they want -- they bought the rights. You're free to not see the movie if your snowflake sensibilities are hurt by an Aquaman played by a guy who actually comes from an island.

Are you really as stupid as you appear to be? Stupid, Hercules was fictious, now think dummy, can we have a skinny little guy playing the part? Thor is ficticious, can we have a 5-7 146 pounder playing THE GOD OF THUNDER...well?
All of us who know the Aquaman story know who he is and no movie can change that, so why not keep it real instead of bull ?
Dummy, all fictious characters are real in what they are suppose to be, that actually had to be explained to you?
Stupid, can we have Superman living in Wyoming with no ability to fly? A fictious character but his story is very real, I know ya don't get it.
There's nothing in the Aquaman canon that says he has to be white. Having him played by a half-Hawaiian dude actually helps him be slightly less stupid.
They had him living in the Soviet Union in the comics and he didn't fly for ten years on Smallville -- so yeah, we can have those kinds of things.
Dude, do you work at never getting it? My God you're dumb.
Growing up guy, ok? Remember we did have Superboy.
Fu Manchu.......a white guy from the Bronx?
The with this.
A movie about BONANZA.

Yep they'll make money off you indirectly that way
So what? Times change. Heroes change. Stories change.
Superboy turned out to be the biggest villain in the DC Universe -- when I was growing up.
Go figure.
what's your issue with this picture?
See: Post#8*
*try to keep up please
how badly are the racist incel nerds ITT going be triggered by Into the Spider-Verse?
The preview after Venom was pretty cool tbh.
i read post #8.
i still don't get your point. miles morales was never portrayed as white
Cultural appropriation by whom?
I don't know of many blacks or Hispanics that cite cultural appropriation by Miles Morales.
Maybe you can explain how that works.
As it is, it just sounds like a buzzphrase you don't really understand.
You're talking about cultural misappropriation. Sorry if that confused you.
What are you talking about, Chris?
You still haven't explained your throwaway line.
You should probably do some research before talking about things you don't really understand.
Chris runs away from his own buzzphrase.
MOBY ....is a classic, you can't do anything there but upgrade. You still have a giant whale, you still have Ahab and that ending. Hollywood can't dump all over Melville and do what they want.
Wonder Woman isn't a blonde.
Green Lantern had a badass ring.
The Flash was a sprinter not a distance man.
You can't be going off where ya want, ya stay with how things are.

Writer Lin Carter was a huge fan of Robert E. Howard who created, El Borak, Solomon Kane***, King Kull and his most famous creation...Conan. He even finished a few stories Howard didn't.
He did come up with his own Conanesque.....
Hollywood could do wonders with that...IF...they stayed true to what Carter wrote.
*** Hollywood stayed close to what Howard wrote with Solomon Kane......surprised.
Then there is Fritz Leibers The Grey Mouser stories.
Amazing potential there if done right.

Thongor sounds like "sexy" underwear for "body positive" women.
Really?
There must be 50ish books in the Dusty Fog saga. Tailor made for Holywood, fantastic stories of the west.
Dusty Fog
Dusty (Dustine Edward Marsden Fog) is the principal protagonist in most of the Floating Outfit stories and Civil War stories. Short[6] but strongly built for his height, Dusty is exceptionally fast with his twin Colts and commonly considered the fastest gun in Texas, a skilled rifle shot though usually preferring a Winchester carbine as being more suited to his small stature, and unequalled in hand-to-hand combat either unarmed or with a sabre. Dusty adapts his talents to the situation whether as head of a cattle drive (e.g. in Trail Boss), light cavalry commander (e.g. in Kill Dusty Fog!), lawman (e.g. in The Town Tamers), wagon train boss (Wagons to Backsight) or spy (e.g. as assistant to Belle Boyd in The Rebel Spy), and his wide education from a variety of teachers renders him a shrewd solver of mysteries and fraud (one example is given in "A Wife for Dusty Fog" in The Small Texan). Although well able to fight in the normal manner for a Western saloon brawl, Dusty is extensively trained in judo and karate by Tommy Okasi. Dusty is a capable cattleman and knows few equals as a horseman, successfully breaking and later using as his regular mount a paint stallion that crippled Ole Devil when he tried to ride it. In the earlier part of his career Dusty uses twin Model 1860 Army Colts but acquires a pair of Civilian Model P Colts in The Peacemakers, finding them much to his liking and conferring a slight improvement in his d
