I saw something that it only works if the character was in a book that hasn't had a movie adaptation yet. In the Shawshank Redemption, "Red" was originally a white irishman. But because bigots don't read books, it didn't upset anyone when Morgan Freeman played him.

I love that they throw in the “because I’m Irish” in the movie.

Uhh, off the top of my head, Nick Fury was white, but Jackson was awesome, and no one wants anyone else to have that role. kingpins is white but Michael Clarke Duncan fucking rocked that shit. Heimdell was Idris Elba, and he was awesome in that part. Zendaya, as mj was the best mj so far. I'm sure there's more, so maybe stop rage baiting...
-
Isn't the point of this meme to mock the people who are enraged?
-
Some kind of selective rage even
-
-
Actually Nick fury was black in ultimate universe before the movies and drawn to look like Sam Jackson on purpose

I'd say he was a good part of a blase movie. I don't know about "rock[ing] it," because we saw such a good performance in the daredevil tv show that the white painting is just etched in my mind forever.

Rage bait is the life blood of social media.... I should go read a book
-
Zendaya is overrated
-
-
It really do be like that.
A lot. No seriously like an alarming amount of "a lot"
-
In case anyone else was wondering...
- Tonto
- Ra's al Ghul
- The Ancient One
- Scarlet Witch
- The Little Mermaid
-
Yeah, has anyone considered that people simply weren't familiar with the source material for the rest of these?
-
As I said before:
They hate live action Ariel because she's "ugly."
And that is so much worse. Especially when people see nothing wrong with that statement.
-
Imagine being so vain that you get angry that a movie role is played by someone that you think is ugly.
How pathetic.
I'm not sure if that's worse than being a racist piece of shit about it, but it can't be far behind.

Can I choose to be mad about all of them?
-
Consistency is good, provided the reason for being mad is valid.
-
I’m mad that billionaires have used identity politics to stop taxing the rich, I’m mad that center left parties are only able to talk about identity pol & handouts, without taxing the rich, I’m mad that time and time again the means of production is shackled, I’m mad that people keep falling for right wing trickle down economics.

Imagine getting mad because a black girl played a mermaid in a Disney movie.

This isn’t political, it’s just a comment on the acting and entertainment industry as being racist.
