There's not less seats at the table, there's just more seats at the table."
No one is getting their chair taken away. Larson even addressed the controversy in a recent interview and explained, "What I'm looking for is to bring more seats up to the table. She simply wanted to make white males realize that they needed to stop speaking over women, especially women of color, that critique films. Did Larson ever say white men could not go see Captain Marvel? No, she did not. The whole point was that white men need to stop making every single film about them and whether or not it satisfied their desires when the film's intended audience was not them. It is frustrating that white males interpreted Larson's speech as her saying they are not welcome at Captain Marvel (or any other film) because that was not the point she was making. I do not need a 40-year-old white dude to tell me what didn't work for him about A Wrinkle in Time. We are expanding to make films that reflect the people who buy movie tickets. It really sucks that reviews matter, but reviews matter. What I am saying is if you make a movie that is a love letter to a woman of color, there is an insanely low chance that a woman of color will have a chance to see your movie and review your movie. "Am I saying that I hate white dudes? No, I'm not.
