As for the films 'speaking' to people I'd argue that it's the geek demographic that wins there too.
I didn't say "demographic that primarily will see this movie", I said "the demographic to whom these movies primarily speak" or with whom these films resonate the most.

I bet I liked WW more than many a feminist, just saying.

My initial point was that race shouldn't matter one way or the other. The fact is that the studios plays into this in order to generate buzz. They purposely marketed WW in that manner, they release Black Panther during black history month etc. Until the world no longer acknowledges these type of things they will always exist. To say in any way certain people have more of a right to claim these movies is just feeding into the problem. Gonna stop now as it's getting a little touchy.

Trying to stay positive here and say going with some friends to see it this Sunday. I use to go Friday or Saturday, but these big movies tend to be sold out in advance for first two days.

It use to be a big decision which movies to go to because it is $13 here. Then I got Movie Pass last November and go almost every weekend because it is $10 for one movie per day. I may end up seeing Infinity War a couple times due to this.

No, but I don't see why a feminist message would "turn off" men.
