BIG APRIL RANT 6

Unoriginal rant title for a kinda review of Disney's (and Marvel's but they don't want you to know that) Big Hero 6.
Let's start with the Basics... BH6 is a spin-off of a spin-off of a Marvel Comic...

Since the X-Folk are trapped with 20th Century Fox... Disney had to do a little scrubbing to the BH6 concept...

We lost the two better known members of the team: Sunfire and Silver Samurai. We also lost Japan, but got a Hybrid of Tokyo and San Francisco. The importance of Japan for Big Hero 6 is that in the SOURCE MATERIAL, BH6 is the Official Japanese Superhero team... Composed of Japanese people... But Disney changed that...

The Full Japanese team was switched and replaced with A Latin American Girl, an African American guy, a Caucasian guy, a Kinda Asian-ish Girl but a bit vague so she can be mixed race and led by a Very Caucasian looking Asian-ish boy. Where is the Whitewashing Outrage from the SJWs? This team was made completely out of a minority, but they replaced the cast with other races. This is something for them to make outrages that would reach the mainstream media... Oh wait! That would have actually required for them to read the original comics, or care enough about comics to demand that Hollywood would have kept the original Minority cast intact...

But they were probably too busy demanding to change actual Caucasian comic book characters into minorities or women because, Social Justice...

Now, with the whole Weird SocJus redesigns, I got to say that the cast was pretty interesting...

Hiro was a Supah Ninja, He played George Takei's grandson...


Gogo Tamago was a Real World cast Member... She also was in an abominable movie.

Fred, well he can Train your Dragon... Wait, no Dragon trailer? He's playing Weasel on Deadpool.

Wasabi... He's a Wayans... Son of Blankman... He played a young David Alan Greer

Last but not least Honey Lemon... who I've got nothing to post or make references... to, except her father, Famous Venezuelan singer José Luis Rodríguez, better known as El Puma.

Also a Viagra Spokesman.

So, Disney took a huge dump on the source material that would make Jeff Goldblum's big pile look tiny. Somehow this actually did NOT RUIN the movie. Seeing as all the backstory was tied to a certain X-Series and the rights to cinematic X-stuff is on Fox's paws; they had to improvise.

It was an enjoyable experience, even if it denied its Marvel Roots as hard as it could. It was great for kids to watch and not mind numbingly annoying for adults. I'm trying to not spoil anything since this movie is not deserving of my play by play snark-athon!

I will admit that the story has a LOT of Superhero movie cliches and if you're into science the suspension of disbelief will not be easy for you.

It's not a perfect movie, but a rather enjoyable one. I'd say 7 out of 10. I wanted to like it more, but I couldn't. 

Also 80s Leonardo and MYP He-Man...
