Finally a kindred spirit! Namor might be a compelling character, but he's also a massive hypocrite. He makes this great big spiel about how much he hates imperialism and how he and Wakanda are kindred spirits in this regard, which is completely undermined by how how he treats Wakanda exactly like any imperialist nation would. He shows Ramona zero respect - both how he approaches her for their first meeting and then he rubs in it how there's nothing she can do to make him return Shuri and Riri to her. And then he launches an attack killing all those innocent citizens and a completely defenseless Ramona all in retaliation for the 2 N'akia killed (and she only did so because they both were ready to kill Shuri and Riri on the spot). And is he remorseful after all this? No, he's proud he weakened a powerful nation without any just cause and how they'll probably have to swallow their pride for his help in the near future. And this is never at all acknowledged in the film itself, which drove me crazy!

Yeah. He very much gave me that "Black people need to do more for us" energy that we get from other POC with things today. Like, Bro. This ain't their business. They dealing with they own shit and how dare you? You think that the best route is to attack somebody you wanted as an ally than to attack the enemy and then perhaps circle back to this beef that stood on his ego. Only on his ego. You letting them crackers regroup and potentially get stronger while you weakening your only probable ally? That's not just trifling, it's also bad military planning.

People let him slide because the actor is fine. Two things can be true. You can want that actor to blow your back out and also be like, "But fuck Namor, though." He is an enemy of Africa and an enemy of ME. I'ma stay on this wave. Idc how big his thang is. Fuck Namor and the clique he claim.

Had a chance to fight the real enemy and really chose to attack the greatest nonwhite nation that he knew of? Suck my dick, Namor.

Anyways. Wakanda Forever, for me had a warrior saves a damsel story, and that's the relationship I really cared about the most. Shuri reaching out to Riri defending her when danger comes. Bringing her to her kingdom for protection. Refusing to give her up, even though she saw the wonder of this nation that wanted to obtain her? There's not even emphasis on THAT dynamic for me to fully enjoy this installment. I need to find that corner of fandom so I can immerse in it.

Will there ever be a TV Tropes alternative? I think we need one because the mods there are simply the worst. They don't believe in giving fair warnings before they lock people out of their accounts without giving any reason. You literally have to beg for forgiveness on forum to find out what you did wrong - and I don't think they've actually ever given mercy to anyone they've locked out

Wasn't All The Tropes meant to be that? Or is it just a mirror? I seem to remember people starting some alternative site at some point but I'm guessing it didn't pan out

Give it time, I think since "Moon Girl" is connected to Marvel they will capitalize it sooner than later (and they wouldn't have Moon Girl as a meet and greet character if they didn't have faith in the show). But give it time. I mean we didn't get a Kate Bishop action figure until a year after "Hawkeye" aired on Disney+

Oh for sure! The problem is I'm coming off years of "where's the Amphibia merch. Where's The Owl House merch. Is there really not an official King plush"

Well there is the obligatory Funko pop of Devil- (ditto with Moon Girl)

Disney being the beating heart of the capitalistic world makes it even more frustrating when they refuse to capitalize on certain properties. Like do you know how much money I am willing to spend on Disney TVA merchandise???????? Why do you not want my money?????????

At the very least Lunella is now a meetup character at Disney's California Adventure, so that's awesome!

It should. The "edit appearance" button seems to be still working

The "edit appearance" button works for me, but the save button is gone and if I try to refresh it, it just brings back my old stuff. :( Tumblr's new update is very bad for us desktop users because it makes us hard to use the site.
