Yeah, that doesn't follow through with logic and reasoning though. Why would white people need to be supported? |
I like you, AngryLittleAlchemist, you seem to be one of the only ones who has any reason in this thread.
Also, I find it funny that people are going on about 'forced diversity' in a movie that takes place in Africa...especially after the controversy surrounding The Ancient One being played by a white person in Doctor Strange. Marvel isn't some 'SJW' company, but they're doing what they feel is appropriate to each movie. Tilda Swinton did an outstanding job and they chose her over someone of Asian Descent because of how good she ended up being.
Sometimes you NEED to be a certain race - like in Black Panther - while other times you don't. Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba both show that Marvel isn't afraid of mixing things up a bit when it's appropriate, but Black Panther shows that they sometimes know when race is important to a film. Their billions of dollars in worldwide box office receipts and fairly consistently well-reviewed movies show that they know what they're doing.
The very idea that someone could have a problem with a film being 'black' despite being set in Africa shows that there's still a lot of racism out there, and it needs to be quashed.
Disgusting.
