So you think it's appropriate that Hollywood refused to cast an Asian actor to play the character who was Asian? |

Why must Johnny Storm be a White Guy? By the way - Johnny Storm has been played and voiced by a number of different people. Odd that this is the only one you call out. Jay Underwood - 1994 Chris Evans Fantastic Four – Rise of the Silver Surfer - 2007 Simon Rex Superhero Movie – Human Torch - 2008 Michael B. Jordan - 2015 Fantastic Four Chris Evans – Voice Quinton Flynn – Voice David Kaufman – Voice, Darren Norris – Voice, Josh Keaton – Voice, Antony Del Rio - Voice Brian Austin Green – 1994 – TV Series Bill Murray – 1974 – Radio Adaptation |

Why do white roles need to be replaced? |

Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary. #MAGA #wallsnotwars | |

The human torch character has always been white. The voice of the character isn't the talk now. |

Reclusive Hollywood conservative group disbands after ‘civil war in slow motion’ over Trump http://www.rawstory.com/2016/04/reclusive-hollywood-conservative-group-disbands-after-civil-war-in-slow-motion-over-trump/ The Friends of Abe has acted as a clandestine club for Hollywood conservatives for more than a decade, hosting secret events where they could vent rightwing views and hear speeches from visiting Tea Party luminaries. But on Thursday the organisation – which counts Jon Voight, Jerry Bruckheimer and Kelsey Grammer among its 1,500 members – made an abrupt announcement: it was dissolving. “Effective immediately, we are going to begin to wind down the 501 c3 organization, bring the Sustaining Membership dues to an end, and do away with the costly infrastructure and the abespal.com website,” the executive director, Jeremy Boreing, told members in an email, a copy of which the Guardian has seen. “Today, because we have been successful in creating a community that extends far beyond our events, people just don’t feel as much of a need to show up for every speaker or bar night, and fewer people pay the dues that help us maintain that large infrastructure.” The announcement caught members by surprise and fueled speculation that infighting over Donald Trump’s candidacy, among other factors, had drained commitment. Others said the group had been losing steam for years. Instead of electrifying the organization, California’s 7 June primary, a final and potentially decisive showdown between Trump and his GOP rivals Ted Cruz and John Kasich, appeared to frazzle it. Lionel Chetwynd, a producer and screenwriter and co-founder of the FOA, recently spoke of the primary campaign causing a “civil war in slow motion”, which fractured friendships and shredded solidarity.

White roles? Where in the script did it say: A causally dressed White Man enters the room, his eyes sweep over the scene. He appears curious about the table in the center of the room. |

To be fair, Gerard Butler's break out role was in 300 and he looks and sounds about as Greek as I do. This is not really an uncommon practice. |

He's a lot of things in the comics that he isn't on screen. What they drew ![]() What the audience in the theater saw ![]() It's fascinating how 'purists' draw their lines at skin color. Perhaps something else is going on here. Edited by Coast2coast, Apr 28 2016, 05:38 PM.
