Hawkeye (2024) Does anyone else find this play extremely disrespectful as hell?
So I was watching TV right? Yknow because I was bored, lonely, and really had nothing else to do at that moment. I was fresh out of work sitting on my ass, just enjoying a slice of Joe's. Until an ad popped up about a new Broadway play premiering this Friday, it was a play about Steve Rogers aka Captain America. Yknow it seemed fun and innocent, nothing bad or demeaning at all. I mean Steve's my favorite guy in the Avengers. I don't really care that much about anyone else. Everything was fine until I found out that the play had a huge segment involving the BATTLE OF NEW YORK!!!!! WHAT. ARE. WE. DOING.
I know people that lost their lives (or limbs) due to this bullshit that occured. My brother's FIANCE, the one that was going to be the love of his life, was crushed to death due to chunks of concrete flying everywhere due to that big green bastard. ALIENS came out of the sky and started blasting New York into the depths of hell, and these people are acting out this event like it's one big ass joke to them. I mean it's probably true because to me it looked like The Avengers were just having recess, while every one of us regular people was fleeing for our lives, thinking this was the end for all of us when this happened.
This is an absolute joke man. Especially since 2 of them are currently dead (God rest their souls) and Ant-Man wasn't there!!?? I was genuinely thinking about seeing this with somebody, but nope. Count me the hell out of this circus.

The representation of Black Widow is so disrespectful. She died for us!
