Is raceswapping actually that bad when it isn’t important to the story?
>>214202505no and it's a good thing because she's so cutetruth nuke
>>214202505Raceswapping is only bad when it comes to historical figures who weren't the race of the actor depicting them. In that case it's performative and tacky but it doesn't matter at all when it comes to fictional characters who were previously established as another race because they never existed to begin with and an adaptation should take creative liberties anyway.
>>214202505It's bad when it doesn't make sense. Black people can't swim.
yes
>>214202505Yes you fucking idiot.And they fucked up the story too.
>>214202505Yes it's terrible and causes more racism.
She's cute I would betray my race to cum inside her
>>214202505>Literally mention little mermaid in another thread>now a little mermaid thread1 time is a coincidence. Even 2 3 or 4 times can be coincidence. But the amount of times it happened really tells me there's an ai bot making threads to boost engagement
>>214202505Nope
>>214202505If the original character was white then they shouldn't be raceswapped. If the original character was black then they should be raceswapped.
>hire big titty meat girl>cgi her titties outcriminal
Yes. If you want to tell a story of a black mermaid, make an original story with her.
Jesus fucking CHRIST. What an absolutely UGLY MONSTROSITY that thing is. Is it even HUMAN?!
>>214202505In the context of (Disney's) The Little Mermaid it kind of is. King Triton is a son of Poseidon (both in mythology and confirmed in the 1992 show) so Ariel should be ethnically Greek. Another official Disney comic also tied it to greek mythology
>>214202622I swear I didn’t even check those threads
>>214202688its literally a nermaid retard
why didn't they hire her? she's a better singer too.
>>214202622All the best threads get posted while I'm banned. It's like the bots are teasing me.
Ariel, wait for me.
>>214202505>>214202505>Is raceswapping actually that bad when it isn’t important to the story?
>>214202505as long as the government is taking money from whites at gunpoint and giving it to black people so they can buy tickets to the movie, I don't see the issue. as long as the tickets are sold, who cares?
>>214202505I don't have any issue with it. And if I were to come up with an issue to have it would be I don't trust the reasoning behind some raceswapping. Is it because they were the best actor who auditioned or whatever? Great fine that's okay. Is it because you're a racist? Well that's less cool.
movie about undersea people only casting ayys when
>>214202505Yes, it's esthetically unappealing
>>214202505If it's not important, why do they keep doing it? Sounds like a disingenuous argument, one perhaps made by a man in a small hat.
>>214202505raceswapping and other kinds of swapping have been a standard thing in theater for centuries with no one batting an eye. it's only relevant to anyone when stupid faggots want to pretend it's some great outrage.
>wokies want to produce propaganda with diverse characters>okay, go make an original story about that>sorry, but we can't make anything original>we'll just take an existing ip and raceswap everyone :^)
>>214202505Shes supposed to be a beautiful princess, her being an ugly alien nig directly takes away from that
>>214202505Would you tolerate it with some African writer's folklore adaptation?
It's terrible but what a rack she has.
>>214202505no but identity politics is
It's fine if the actress is hot.
>>214202716Whomstve????
>>214202505Its bad because it causes more harm than good, it just pisses a lot of people off while throwing crumbs at whatever group you're trying to shill to, its disrespectful.
Disney fucked up here. I'm sure they lost around 500k by casting a black woman. Same as that Lightyear flick. For family movies controversy is actually a very bad thing.
Depends on where you're doing it. If you replace the protagonist's friend and his wife with a black couple, nobody would bat an eye. They did this kind of thing all through the 80s and 90s and nobody ever really complained.What we have today is leftist raceswapping, which says that every doctor on screen should be black because if blacks see themselves as doctors, they'll all become doctors. It's comically overtly racist, and is based on the leftist belief that if you pretend something is real, it becomes real. If you pretend a man is a woman, he becomes one, or if you pretend a nigger is an innocent victim of racism, he becomes a martyr instead of another criminal junkie OD. This is because leftists do not believe in objective reality, they believe that by putting ugly women in movies, beauty standards will drop to zero and chad will marry them.
>>214202505I would impregnate this alien freak so quickly it would make heads spin
>>214202555The author chose the race of the characters for a reason. A fictional story based on historical events, for instance. Switching races makes a point in itself outside the intentions of the author.
>>214202505I tried explaining that changing races in literature and movies is wrong to literal whites and they think I am racist now.
>>214202650Black mermaids don't exist
It’s bad when I don’t like it, it’s good when I like it
>>214202505The only good thing to come of this movie was Danielle's Korean dub covers of the songs. She literally should have played Ariel.
>>214202505yes
>>214202537cope, even for a black girl she is weird looking, looks like an actual fish when she was supposed to look ethereal The Peter pan movie and the Pirates of Caribbean did the mermaid casting better
>>214202505Yes. Respect the design of the character people fell in love with or make your own original movie
>>214202505I don't care what race she is, I care that she looks average. If I wanted to see average people act, I would go see a local play. I go to the movies to see really pretty people act, or extremely talented people act. She was neither.
>>214205389disney mermaids in 2011 btw(black mermaids too, except they look good)
>>214203474>500k500m
Fun fact, Ariel was modeled after a picture of Alyssa Milano’s
>>214202589I'm more pissed off they sigitally nerfed her big tits.
>>214202690but Greeks aren't white, anon
>>214202505No idea, I don't watch negro movies. If there's a negress on the cover, then I'm not the target audience and neither are my kids. Simple as.
