No, whitewashing is racist. Whites have privilege

reply

reply

Showing your bigoted, retarded mindset at last. Imbecile.

reply

Cry, white supremacist. The days of everyone on the screen being white are over.

reply

Thankfully

reply

those were days that never were.......

impossible for low IQ people like you to understand.

and this is about changing characters color,,,, something people like you are against...... when it's white people that take over a character that is black. apparently not when it's the other way around

can you see how dumb you are now?

reply

No, you're the dumb one who doesn't get why the inverse is not a problem.

reply

No, you're the dumb, shortsighted one who doesn't get that the solution to the problem of under-representation is to create new, kick-ass, diverse characters and franchises that are unique to people and characters "of color," and their unique perspectives/stories. The solution is NOT to hijack and "color-wash" already existing and established characters that are white. All that does is foster hostility and resentment, and make people like you look like TOTAL hypocrites.

reply

Who would you be appeasing by creating genuine, and not ret-conned/shoehorned characters of color? Wouldn't that be what people of color would want most, in the fight for representation? Characters and franchises that are uniquely and genuinely black, latin, and asian?

reply

They, apparently, cant come up with their own stories or characters. So all they CAN do is hijack and color wash other stories.
I mean this is OBVIOUSLY the case, right?
All movies are nowadays is remakes of old movies/games/books remade but with the characters color washed.
This would only lead one to believe that writers/producers today are just uncreative and unimaginative that they cant come up with anything on their own and HAVE to just remake.

reply

💥 BOOM!

"The days of everyone on the screen being white are over."


yes that is true but film and tv were better in olden day with less diverse.

i like to watch film from 1960-80s. but not because white but because were better made. better film. film are better when concentrate on talent not race.

reply

-a white man.

reply

an arab man hahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahah!!!

reply

This is true.

When Blade was black no body gave a shit for it. It was Blade, bad ass mf and no one cared if he was black or white ...

reply

yes when good film you dont think about diverse. write good script, have good director, and talent actor - that is how you get good film.

if film is being made with diverse in mind, it will fail. you must write film from heart, not from race.

reply

First, you are right. Second, France.

reply

latinos are white you dumb fuck

reply

they are not you dumb fuck.

Latinos are mostly celtic spanish descent people and the Joel is an ethnic celtic male from the british isles so it is not really that much of a genetic distance.

reply

Cry moar cracker.

reply

Latino/Hispanic is an Ethnicity, not a race. Many Latinos are white.
Look at just about any form that tracks such things (Like the US Census for example)
The Choice are

Hispanic (White)
Hispanic (Non-White)

58% of Hispanics consider themselves White. (Pew research)

reply

It doesn't matter what they look like, as long as they can read the script without the usual unintelligible Latino accent.

reply

Yeah, it's funny to see how many people here not realize that.
