Honestly, that whole section was kinda silly. Not to mention that the reason people are talking about this particular movie a lot is because it, you know, can be watched by children.
I mean, when was the last black majority cast with a budget of $100M< that children could actually watch and enjoy?

Lmao, no it's not. Adults are going to this thing because they think it's important. Critics are saying, "This movie matters, blah blah.."
Someone I know on twitter, an adult woman in her 30's, said that the fictional female characters in the fictional nation of Wakanda with all this fantasy technology are her "role models".
Plenty of people who've probably been fans of the comics since they were kids. It's not like it's impossible for people to look up to fictional characters.
I don't think so. I mean hell there are people basing their ideologies off literary works. Whether it's Ayn Rand or George Orwell or Lao Tzu.
I think we still see comic books as "childlike" but obviously they hold an important place in modern culture. I don't see drawing inspiration from a comic hero as any less than drawing if from any other form of media.

Why did he just say that the general public don't consider Best Picture winners 12 Years a Slave and Moonlight "important" films?
That's just a wrong statement.
