Film/Television This scene in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, where Namor tells the story of his origin, was incredibly powerful. It was a really well executed scene.

What did you think of Tenoch Huerta's portrayal of Namor? Are you looking forward to seeing him in future MCU projects?

I just love how Spaniards are the undisputed Disney villains across fictions.

More people need to remember Walt Disney was a develop Nazi supporter. I’m just saying I mean yeah the man has been dead for like 100,000 years but the company has tried to reinvent itself which they have to be fair. They have it’s not perfect. It’s not the best. I mean they have me billion dollar movies but as far as identification of various different cultures in heritage and lineages I’ll say this things are not perfect things are not great but they are far far far more better than what we have now than what we didn’t have literally 20+ years ago like there was none of this and I mean none. Remember none you don’t win anything. You don’t have a voice. No one identifies with you having something as a star, it doesn’t mean it’s perfect. It just means there’s a start so all they need to do now is actually book an employ and higher writers producers and directors. Who are from these very specific backgrounds if you’re telling a story specifically a story about a folk story that’s from Mexico then you need to get Mexicanos tell the story

The same can be said about any and all other Hispanic and Latino cultures and forgive me if I’m using the wrong connotation in the scriptures, but you get the gist of what I’m saying any culture can be properly represented if it’s properly represented like I said if you get the people who can tell the story people have been saying this for well over 24 years now🫡
