Soy "Supergirl Didn't Fall. She Burned Up Entering the Manosphere"

The second offering in the James Gunn-curated DCU didn’t burn up on its entry into theaters. It was killed by a thousand Kryptonite darts in the weeks and months preceding, by an increasingly crowded YouTube/TikTok/IG landscape of monetized fandom that, as in every other facet of media, now runs on vitriol and negativity.

The film’s lead, House of Dragons alum Milly Alcock, was dogged from the moment her casting was announced, with a disturbing amount of venom hurled at her physical appearance (something that has reached a disgraceful zenith since the film’s release). Add to that a female screenwriter in Ana Nogueira (along with the rabid disdain for Gunn’s supposed “woke agenda” from aspiring alpha male online gatekeepers), and from the beginning, the Manosphere was simply not going to allow it to succeed.

YouTube accounts such as Nerdrotic Daily and Geeks + Gamers, whose stable of mortally insecure, insufferable incels have been among those most ruthlessly attacking the actress in an effort to grow their already massive viewership among other easily-lured young men weaned on Conservative sexism and toxic masculinity.

The sad truth is that even in comic book spaces that should be more evolved than other media landscapes, women actors, writers, artists, and directors still have to do three times the work to get a fraction of the credit, and in an exponentially expanding virtual landscape where the lowest common denominator is courted and women are targeted, we’re going to continue to see these stories play out.

Supergirl didn’t fall, at least not completely.

She simply burned up in the Manosphere.

It is truly second hand embarrassing to have witnessed SJWs complain about casts being whitewashed in films for decades, yet when a notable icon gets its equivalent misrepresentation from the role of the main character's gender, it is suddenly unacceptable for people to criticize this change.

I'm literally yawning while typing this...so predictable with these soycucks, man!

i don't think it's true that Nerdrotic killed Supergirl, but i wish it was true

I thought women were just as capable as men according to Reddit. Are you saying that the inferior female sex did not even bother to drag their whale lard asses into theaters to support one of their female protagonists? But males just shit posting online managed to tank a whole movie from the comfort of their chairs?

Incels are such a tiny demographic it's a statistical impossibility for a movie to fail because of 20+ year old male virgins boycotting it so if their braindead girl power fantasy slop failed it's entirely the fault of the retarded directors who pander to their equally retarded audience of females who can't be bothered to leave their homes to watch said movies probably because they're all morbidly obese landwhales who get exhausted after taking two steps.

You are not entitled to box office blockbusters starring female leads. If you don't want box office bombs, you're going to need to self-improve.

Capeshit fatigue is at an all time high and they are still pulling the 'le evil misogynists caused this movie to flop' JFL

I wish this was true. Like, imagine if chud youtubers like Nerdotic and Critical Drinker could actually bury a movie, we would have a lot less slop.

I remember all the chuds online shitting on the newest Avatar movie, yet it made a bazillion dollars. Normies are unaware that someone like Nerdotic exists.
