No one will care, because even the 70% fat population don't want to look at (animations of) fat people. It will subsequently be blamed on white men.

It's like the Ghostbusters remake, but without the significant Ghostbusters fanbase and even less people of normal weight.
I think they could turn it into a half decent parody though, by showing the utter ridiculousness of a fat superhero:
Not/barely being able to keep up with someone running away, being too slow to land a punch, constant heaving and complainig and possibly by making the story arc about weight loss.
But alas, that's never going to happen.
Superheros are meant to be an inspiration to be the best person you can possibly be, never give up and to put the needs of others first, which is basically the antithesis to fat people.
Instead we'll probably get is the manifestation of complacency, some bad jokes aimed at thin people and the message, that everyone is perfect despite their flaws and therefore there is no need to actually improve yourself.
But you're right, it will be blamed on white men, who were not even the target audience to begin with...

I'm looking forward to seeing this movie crash and burn.

Then it will be the fault of white males.

These comics are awful. There is this pretty funny Youtuber named Nerkish who reads cringe comics like these (Faith, Fatizen). Pretty funny shitlording, his imitation fat voice is hilarious. Here is a video of Nerkish reading through Faith #1:

This has to be a joke. If a movie like this was ever released, it would crash and burn. The theaters would have to hand out barf bags to anyone stupid enough to go to that train wreck.

And she'll have a super hot, muscular, zero body fat boyfriend.

Rebel Wilson as the beast and Channing Tatum as the obeast's boyfriend...

Well, yeah. Obadiah Archer is kinda hot, muscular, and has very little body fat.

Jesus, it looks like it's digging its claws into his wrists so he can't escape.
"You are all mine." it says before unhinging it maw and snarfing him down in a single gulp.

Who keeps approving this shit? They are going to lose their job once society decides to pull their heads out of their collective asses.

Fuck even in the comics this sow is ugly. I don't want to even speculate which heifer will get the "honour" of playing her.

Someone mentioned Rebel Wilson. It would look the part.
[–] Fitizen0 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
I immediately thought of Rebel's fat ass too.

The fats would reeeeeeeeeeee that Schumer is only a smallfat. Faith is like, 300+ lbs. of sow.
[–] meowilicious 0 points 4 points 4 points (+4|-0) ago
It'll be a flop. Hammy Schumer's bullshit movie about being a brain damaged whale flopped. As much as these fatasses talk big about their bopo cause, they are all too cheap to spend a dime to support it and their hammy role models.
