>Production held an open casting call last week, and it’s clear from the character descriptions that DuVernay is setting this up to be a more diverse version of the story than Disney’s 2003 made-for-TV adaptation. >A 14-year-old mixed-race girl of African-American and Caucasian descent. “This girl is questioning her life, her place in the world and her family.

Hooray!

Take a fully black kid to the tryouts
When he flunks out, make a fuss about racism. Get the NAACP involved.

Ooo. Errrr. Are you triggered, poltard? Do you want Sup Forums to be your personal army or echo chamber? There, there. Let mommy sing you to sleep with panzerlied and Horst wessel lied.

Does their race have any bearing what so ever on the plot? No? Then it doesn't matter that they aren't white
Adrian Cox
Their father doesn't leave them and refuse to pay child support he gets kidnapped, they are clearly white kids.
Liam Kelly
Doesn't matter that they're black either.
Yet right before your eyes is "We want Mulattos".
Gavin Bailey
>hire black actors >"see, we bout to get dat chedda! Stay mad honky" >entire set crew and film production is white guys
Maybe they should have some nigger splicing and dicing it. Make it real affirmative action style. Minorities in most of the behind the scenes roles through the entire creation of the movie
Grayson Wilson
Exactly, it doesn't matter. That's why its wholly up to the director just like every other "meaningless" artistic decision that the director puts into the movie.
Luis Baker
If their race "doesn't matter" then why are they changing it?
Kevin Smith

Why can't Liberals or Blacks for that matter just write anything of their own and then cast other minorities? Why do they constantly have to hijack properties owned by Whites, Chistians, etc.
I legitimately hope this bombs, just like Fan4stic, the Annie remake and all the other race-bait bullshit.
Anthony Morris
Bombs away
Dylan Hernandez
>Ava DuVernay
Does this woman have the most bloated, punch-able Liberal face in all of Hollywood?
Ryder Morris
Because the director is black and wants to. See It's no different than choosing the filming location or costumes

That implies accident, maybe black paint works.

How many of these have to bomb before the Jews realize diversity doesn't sell?
Caleb Scott
The day of the rope cannot come soon enough.
Bentley Rivera
I know /pol-tv/ likes to act like Annie was a total flop, but it did $85m on a $65m budget. That's a respectable box office for a remake of a children's musical that has basically no resonance with anyone born after 1950.
Isaac Wright
It's more about Dogma than money at this point, shockingly enough. Suits in places like Sony, Disney, etc. are willing to throw away millions just to promote an agenda. It's not ideal, but they view it as a viable sacrifice more often than not.
Same with Target losing business due to their "tolerant" policy on bathrooms but doing it anyway.
Liberalism is a religion at this point.
Anthony Hughes
>I know /pol-tv/ likes to act like Annie was a total flop It woefully under-performed compared to what its creator's needed it to do. A lot of its profit was eaten-up by things like advertising.
Jace Bell
I like that they now want to cast mixed people to cover all bases.
Levi Cook
It doesn't matter that a Jewish woman is playing a robot in Ghost In The Shell and look how buttmad that got people.

Remember that time white people remade Roots with white slaves? Remember that time white Shaft remake? Remember that sci fi movie with a white guy as the Great JuJu?
Fucking whites.
Sebastian Wilson
That's a monetary loss you dumb fuck. Profit and gross are two different things.
Grayson Gray
I havent watched any nu type movies at all this year. Its all just shit.
Charles Jackson
That's the production budget. Marketing would be something like 20-40 mil more on top of that.
It failed.
Henry Nelson
Yep. Called that shit as soon as she got picked up.
Thomas Cruz
Nothing in Hollywood is recorded as profit anyhow. Fuck, man, the Star Wars Trilogy is on paper as a loss. Exceeding cost on a film that's been made half a dozen times is more than Hollywood deserves for repeating itself so much.
