But it sure will be hilarious to see these cringe fests waste money. It only proves that guys make better movies and in my view better actors. To prove me wrong they need to bring out some of these gender swapped films with gender swapped people doing the scripts, And directing. And the same should go for the race swapping trend as well. Lets see Black Panther with an all african american cast crew director and writer. You will never see this though because the mode of operation of these people is to take over popular culture instead of creating thier own material.
You understand that most of the gender swapped remakes are made by... men. Ghostbusters was made by Paul Feig, who was crap, he wrote and directed it and it was dreadful.
LIkewise Black Panther was written by two black men, directed by one of those black writers, and had a black dominated cast... so we'll never see.... the thing that happened with the very example you used to try prove the opposite? Did you assume it was written and directed by white men because you thought it was good so couldn't have been written and directed by black men?
As for some of the other crap in this thread, gamers are mostly males, and so you want male characters because you relate to them better. This was also linked with the failure of games with lead female characters.
Now aside from the games with female lead characters that I can think of, like Tomb Raider, Horizon Zero Dawn... these are popular successful games. Which games are failing exactly? As with Mr "they won't make Black Panther using black people", do you have any actual facts to base this on?
More over the key thing you missed was stating that more gamers are men (citation) and stating that we want to relate to the characters more (again citation from gamers, not just you), yet that surely means there should be games with female characters so women can play those games if they are drawn to them more. But somehow you believe all games should have male lead characters because mostly only men game?
Aside from the fact that you provided no where near any hint of any evidence, most things point to a roughly 60/40 split for male/female gaming. Thus if some games (and not that many) have female leads, considering 40% of gamers are women, how is that a problem? Again you seem to believe men can/should only play male lead characters, then by your own logic then 40% of games should have female lead characters.
Either way as said I can't think of any games that flopped massively due to having a female lead character at all and a huge number of games offer the free choice of either and I'll choose either depending on my mood. I don't relate all that much to a male Shepard over a Female Shepard, because I didn't go through that war he went through, or grow up on a colony in a different system, nor have I fought AIs in space, or shocking travel around outer space in general. Almost every character I play in a game is someone with a physical strength I won't ever possess, with the ability to carry hundreds of flasks in one pocket, with the ability to do magic, maybe freeze time or shoot a fireball oh, and there are alien invaders, or zombies or..... they are made up characters that are mostly living a fantasy, if they are male or female is pretty much irrelevant, I'm not them, I'm just playing a character that can do amazing things I can't.
