I'm not a huge Ghostbusters fan so I really don't care. If the trailers look good I'll see it, if they aren't, I won't.

And or making will smith deadshot same as making the guy from the creed movie johnny storm in the last fantastic four movie ??? That's not an accurate depiction of either of these characters...Both these characters have been since their creation Caucasian. Deadshot might be latino not 100% on that.... but that's my thought.

Because, for the most part, most people don't care. That sounds dismissive, and I hope it doesn't come across as rude, but that's the way it is. Here's the the thing, the vast majority of people in the general audience have never touched a comic book. They don't care about liberties being taken.

Human Torch might be better known, but Deadshot is not a popular character by any means. Most people have never heard of him, aside from perhaps his guest spots on Arrow or his brief appearance in Arkham City. So when it comes time to the movie, most people aren't gonna be angry or upset that they made Deadshot black, they're gonna go "Oh, hey, it's Will Smith!"

Just like how nobody really cared about Nick Fury or Heimdall being black (and before anyone says anything yes I know Fury is black in the Ultimate version). Those are things that hardcore purists care about, but most viewers aren't hardcore purists.

Has Hasbro made any merchandise of any of the TV characters yet?
