There's no legitimate argument against this.
>>
>>222336494
Fair critique, they all should have been race accurate for fairness sake
>>
>>222336494
They couldn't use a tibetan or even have the character be tibetan because CHYNA would get mad
>>
>>222336494
yeah but there's lots of illegitimate arguments tho

There were furors about the casting of all of those characters. That does not change that everyone mad about the black little mermaid should kill themselves.
>>
>>222336494
>top
cast for marketing purposes only
>bottom
cast out of pure spite

>>222336494
agreed.
i wonder though, can you get more chuds to agree to be against whitewashing characters, or can you get more libtards to be against blackwashing white characters?

AKSHUALLY the most race-swapped character is pic related.

In the source material he's CHINESE. Literally the only adaptation that gets it right is the Hallmark miniseries (which is fucking fantastic and you should watch it).

Also Agrabah in the source material isn't in Persia but North-Western Africa.
>>
>>222336915
Actually he was hindu saar.
>>
>>222336915
I thought Agrabah was in Iraq. It sounded like Baghdad.
>>
>>222336494
Yeah nah go fuck yourself, ancient one was leftist Holywood not wanting to upset their communist brothers in china.
They didn't even need to change it, they could have just described him as coming from Tibet province China, but they couldn't commit to either position and dodged the whole thing like cowards.
I've seen a lot of people shit on white Ra's too
>>
>>222336915
>which is fucking fantastic and you should watch it
i have fond memories of it too, but i tried to rewatch it a couple of years ago and it was awful. the costumes and sets are fantastic, the actors also do a good job, mostly, but it's edited in that horrible adhd way that leaves no room between scenes and lines and watching it feels like you're having a stroke. the writing and camerawork aren't not too hot either but i won't take too many points away for that, it's a hallmark production after all.
>>
>>222336946
No, it's in the Maghreb, which is North-Western Africa.
>>
>>222336829
obviously retarded, that would make stockholm not white

Yes the writer of Doctor Strange said on DoubleToastef/Spill the Ancient One was a no win scenario.

> Do a faithful male version and you get called racist for the Fu Manchu/Mandarin stereotype.

> Do a female Asian version you get called racist for the Dragon Lady stereotype.

> Cast a Tibetan actor at all and China bans the film & bans the director/writer/lead actor from ever entering China (see Brad Pitt's Tibet movie)

> Cast a Japanese/Chinese actress and you piss off Tibet supporters & wokies and get called racist for the idea that all Asians are interchangeable.

OLSEN HAD THAT.
THE BLACK BITCH DID NOT (WITHIN THE PURITANICAL FILM)

you know what. i just redownloaded it to see if my criticism was right. it's not that bad. i must have been in some kind of lethargic state when i watched it last. definitely worth watching for all the positives i mentioned and in fact, i'll finish watching it right now.

for me it's bald tilda
I was so distracted during her scenes I just wanted to rub and lick that dome

>>222336494
literally every single one of those was controversial, leftoids just want to pretend they weren't for political "points"
>>
>>222336494
three of those characters are villains, so they just made the villains white instead of brown/asian to increase their ESG/DEI score. Having an actual native be subordinate to the Lone Ranger was considered "offensive' so they made him White.

Literally all those recasts were for woke reasons.
>>
>>222336494
depp is part injun iirc, not sure though. the 3 characters after are white.
>>
>>222336494
What is common between all those movies is that they are all shit. The Raz al-Ghul thing could have been to avoid casting a muslim (Pashtuns are technically white) as a two-faced terrorist.

undeniably based take
>>
>>222337495
The twist wouldn't work then
>>
another dishonest aspect of this meme is that because it shows 4 examples of "whitewashing" and only 1 of blackwashing, it implies the former happens more.
We get maybe 1 controversial whitewashing every several years and in all these examples there are semi-legit (or at least woke) reasons for it (avoiding stereotypes or casting villains).
We get at least 1 major blackwash every fucking year and it's almost always in bad faith.
>>
>>222337629
>>222337629
to clarify, casting those white actors was them trying to sidestep a BIGGER problem, while casting a black actor in a white role only causes problems for everyone, there are literally no winners there.
>>
>cast actors like Hanks or Hoffman or Penn to play retarded characters, get an award-winning performance
>cast retarded actors to play intelligent characters, get laughably bad performance
you see the difference
>>
>>222336494
Johnny Depp is Cherokee though.
>>
>>222336494
There is. Blacks are ugly and don't have the same moral worth as real humans.

Was internet as ready and available with Batman Begins? it was 2003. I wanted him to be Ken though
Also we complained about the Ancient One and you people called us virgins for not liking her playing it
>>
>>222337403
This. End of thread.

>>222336494
Lmao, Goul was never "arab", despite the weird name. He was even voiced by David Warner and all his animated incarnations; the "Whitest" actor you could possibly think of.
He doesn't even look arab in the image that's LABELED "arab".

9/11 was literally a year before filming Batman Begins, they literally said they changed the characater for 1. Surprise effect and 2. To not stereotype arabs as leaders of terrorist organizations (also why they visible head was Japanese). Fuck off, the change was for woke reasons

For the Ancient One they did it to sell in China because they refuse to accept Tibetan characters and to have more women in the movies. It was also for woke reasons and we complained

Fuck off with your disengenuity.

Didn't know the first pic, turns out they made a movie about the lone ranger
>>
>>222336494
here’s an argument, every single character there, was written by white or jewish person, for the audience of white people.
Here’s another, every race is closer together in the top examples. There are arabs that look white, romani that look white, but blacks don’t look white, blacks are very different to all other races in appearance.
Here’s another, all those actors on the top, are famous or even box office draws. The bottom is not.
Here is another, I did see people complaining online about the casting for nearly all, maybe each one. So your argument really falls on that one.
Here’s one last one, the most important one of all. You’re a retarded faggot.

I thought Scarlet Witch was a jew

>>222338270
depends on the comic, they have changed her background so many times, she has been daughter of magneto and magda, then just adopted, then changed again, then just made in a test tube by the high evolutionary, etc. I don't know what's the latest iteration
>>
>>222337046
that's a sacrifice im willing to make
