A small, ever dwindling amount.

The headline was enough for me. Why does it even matter?

It's disheartening that it would even be a topic of discussion.

There's been a ton of politics around this movie. I've tried to avoid reading about most of it.

^Yeah, that Amazonian Attack on the U.S back in the pre-Flashpoint DC universe has really made them controversial :P

As for why it is a discussion,
It's the age of making sure they're turning enough previously non-black characters, black.
They need to know how their quotas fare.

You can't say 'quota'! It's 'justice.'

Go read some of the stuff about how this is a Feminist triumph in the Age of Trump. And how it contrasts with the anti-Feminist attitudes that hurt the Ghostbusters reboot. It's not hard to find and it's kinda nauseating.

It's not enough that Wonder Woman is a good movie and Ghostbusters was not. There has to be some social/political statement associated with it.

It's just a general statement, not really directed at you in particular.
