The left made a ruckus about not having Black actors/actresses in lead roles and using white actors/actresses playing Black roles.

You have no complaint when a Black guy playing a white role.

I'll repeat the question again to you that you avoided in the Con/Rep board you spouted off of the new Star Wars, do you think in a sci-fi universe with untold numbers of species, that the good guy role only go to white human males?
Trick question?
How so, pretty clear to me?

I answered already. Go back and look it up.
I'll do that, but I'm pretty sure you gave a non-answer
So you think it's appropriate that Hollywood refused to cast an Asian actor to play the character who was Asian?

The "left" and the "right" had questions over the nomination process that underrepresented quality films and performances as it regards minorities during the Academy Awards.

Now, what "Black" guy played what "White" role?

What?

Is this about the Ronald Reagan Story staring Kevin Hart and Lupita Nyong'o as the young Nancy Davis again? Get over it already.



Fantastic Four remake. Johnny Storm was a white guy.
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,

Where do you disagree? Progressives hate men.
Oh, you're just playing the roll of the fool in this thread.

I thought you were being serious. Clearly you are anything but.

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.

Why do they "NEED" to be white in the first place..does skin color determine heroism?

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? :confused:

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.

Come to think of it, Steven Spielberg should do a remake of Amistad. Instead of using all Black actors/actresses playing the slave roles, the remake should include whites, Asians, Hispanics, Indians, Arabs, and Jews as slaves.
They apparently use white actors in roles that should be for blacks and other minorities...I mean c'mon...Christian Bale as Moses?..with an English accent? Gods of Eygpt....Gerard Butler as Set?
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.
People sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would do them harm.

He's a lot of things in the comics that he isn't on screen.

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. :ermm:
