Hollywood is racist

I meant ethnically Jewish.

There is no Jewish ethnicity though...

I think what you are trying to stay is the generic Eastern European Jew whom are white.

Yes. One of The Thing's trademarks is that he's a blue-eyed Jew. You can't change that.

Quote :

The Jewish ethnicity, nationality, and religion are strongly interrelated, as Judaism is the traditional faith of the Jewish nation.

Just for arguments sake.

HOLLYWOOD IS AT IT AGAIN!

Shredder has a race? I mean I guess if I were to think about it, he's Asian but really anyone could do Shredder. As for the Fantastic Four, I've got no problem with Johnny (Jamal?) Storm being black; Sue Storm can be black too. EVERYONE can be black!

On that cracked article, my favorite is #2: Black people don't blend in like white people.

I know I threw a little fit over Electro's race being changed, but eventually I got over it. Still don't like Jamie Foxx though.

lol, no wonder you defended the whole alien origin. If you knew about Shredder's past, then you would know why making the turtles into aliens doesn't make any sense at all.

Also it does matter who plays as Shredder. They cast a white dude to play Oroku Saki. Fucking Oroku Saki! Even if people are too stupid to know that his name is Japanese, you can't avoid his Japanese origins.

Yeah Shredder should be Asian, and making Johnny Storm.black just seems like a whole lot of effort for no reason, they'd have to change Sue to black and that would mean Franklin and Val would be black. Why not just introduce some actual fucking black.characters than changing white or asian ones?

If by "defended the alien origin," I said, "who gives a shit" then yeah. But again, accuracy isn't everything to me. It shouldn't affect a film in any way, shape, or form.

Well it kinda will Jack. Changing the whole premise of the character and their origins will have an effect.

Quit being ignorant. It's NOT about accuracy. The whole alien origin thing just doesn't make sense at all. You say it shouldn't affect the film, yet you know nothing about the characters' origins.
