I still don't get why being antagonistic is the go-to for this sort of thing from the company.
She could be like "I respect that the casting is taking liberties with the original characters, but this is intended as a work based on the animation, rather than an extension of it,. So the director is using the character of Faye in a slightly different manner, but hopefully you'll grow to appreciate it as its own take on the concept"

That was from the actress for the character and that sorta attitude is to frame herself as a victim so people can defend her from sexist internet trolls
 
Primarily, the people girding themselves to become live-action CB defenders are concerned with how publicly supporting the series will help "own" the MAGA Chuds and Gamergaters they see being SOOOO UPSET by this adaption. These are the sort of people who went around calling people who didn't care for Lady Ghostbusters, the Star Wars sequels, etc. manbabies and neo-Nazis and then mocked people for believing there was any sort of culture war going on, while angrily leaping to the defense of media not because they actually liked it, but because in their minds, well, see aforementioned belief they were owning the chuds.
 
Última edición:
I already had no interest in this because it's Netflix trash. The casting was to be expected, and the Mexican pitching a sarcastic fit only reinforced my disinterest.

If Ballad of Fallen Angels is 'adapted' expect Spic Faye to fight her way free of the Red Dragons with her bare hands, and then duel Vicious to a standstill because a fictional woman being in peril or needing rescue from a man is heresy.

Certainly wouldn't feature a moment like this

I hate that this is what our culture boils down to now.

And I hate how long it's been this way, Lady Ghostbusters was over 5 years ago, this shit is beyond tiresome now.
 
Sadly true, and this was how 20-30 year old men discovered anime in the first place.
I was 12, I really can't understate the impact Faye had on me as boy on the cusp of puberty, she was the sexiest thing I had ever seen.

I was crushing hard, if I had internet access at that time I probably would have embarrassed everyone by writing fanfiction with my self insert Gary Stu romancing Faye, thankfully we were all spared that, but I did have fun imaging what life on the Bebop would be like.

The best animes are like that imo, ones with a cast of characters interesting enough you honestly wonder what it would be like to know them for real, you imagine what you would do in the situation.

Most normies are illiterate cultural coprophiliacs who enjoy being served and fed low quality Hollywood remade shit over watching or reading the original works.
I feel like the Michael Bay Transformers movies were a bad turning point for our culture, although those were at least not Woke.

Remember when critics and the entertainment industry didn't blame audiences when something bombs?

Kiwi Farms remembers.
When did that really start? I feel like it was Ghostbusters 2016.
 
Honestly, shame on Warner Bros for letting Bebop slip through their fingers, given it's history with Adult Swim, this should be a series of big budget WB movies, not a cheapo Netflix series.
 
It's a very good thing that we already have Cowboy Bebop. It would be a terribly depressing world if we only had "Netflix Presents: Cowboy Bebop" and had to live with just that..

I swear this woke shit in adaptions, remakes, and sequels is only done now for clicks and free publicity once the fanbase gets justifiably outraged that a fan favorite character is warped beyond recognition or entire elements of he story are changed.

Unless they go Sonic and please the fans. Then, the mainstream media turns on them!

Irony is, remember back in the 2000s when online fan outrage would actually get projects canceled?

WB originally wanted to do a Justice League movie all the way back in the 2000s, there was going to be a US remake of the UK TV series Spaced, but online fan dislike of these killed both projects.

Now Hollywood shows open contempt for the online fans and intentionally does things to piss them off.
