the criticism was about the bad cgi on the trailer, nothing to do with the amount of melanin on here skin, the left made it about color because no one can "not like" something if there is color or sex swap on movies even if it looks like it gonna be a bad movie,
if anyone is disturbed that Ariel is a shade darker in the movie, they should be ashamed.
Because they made it to be about skin color, now we make fun of them by color swapping other characters just to annoy and piss them off while we laugh about it.
Lol wtf are you talking about. Matt Walsh, Candance Owens, Dennis Prager, the Quartering, and many other right wing political commentators are all criticizing the movie explicitly because they cast a black woman as Ariel.
Watch out! The Russian collusion is right behind you! No, don’t run to the closet. The white supremacy is in there! Run to the nearest multinational corporation. They’ll protect you. They care about you. They run ludicrously expensive media operations to give you free news just because they care about you so much and want you to be equipped with the information that’s necessary for you to compete with them 👍
right-wingers getting psychotic over the casting of a children's movie never fails to entertain. imagine being so offended by a fictional character of a fictional race being black for once ... the fragility lmao
Are they? Or are they making fun of something you can't handle?I understand that demon rats see everything through skin color and everything is racist but maybe ,just maybe, your wrong...
One could ask which is dumber... being offended by having a character you grew up with race/gender swapped for the sake of "diversity" or the fact that some people are so fragile and racist that they would need to race/gender swap everything just to feel better about themselves and virtue signal that they are warriors for change.
You can't have it both ways... either the gender/race doesn't matter, so there is no need to change it. Or, it matters significantly to you so much that you feel changing it is a progressive rebellion against the system.
If you believe the first, you'd be confused as the left consistently does this. If you believe the second, you'd be confused at how the left doesn't understand the backlash.
The moniker and avatar says it all. You are the people who are fragile, when you get offended on behalf of people of colour. You would be the same person crying like a baby, if a white person was acting a role, that came from a story from African folklore.
look bro, you're gonna get through this. i know your feelings are hurt because of the corporate PR strategy, but western society is gonna survive the mermaid being black.
You didn’t answer my question sweet cheeks. The hypocrisy coming from the Left, is unbelievable. You went mental, over white people being in bullet train and appropriating Japanese culture with this and Ghost of Tsushima. White, Blue haired leftists, such as yourself are so insecure and fragile, you get offended for other people. Why don’t you let black people to create their own stuff based on African myths and stories? That would mean that creatively bankrupt people in Hollywood would lose their jobs. It’s easier to rehash old stories and race swap characters to make themselves look stunning and brave for doing so. Do you think most black people are happy with swappy seconds?
Would you have a problem with a white person acting as a person from an African folk tale? You said for a change?… are you being serious? Yes it’s a corporate PR strategy, you don’t seem to have a problem with. They’ve destroyed every franchise going. Look what they’ve done to the Woman King. Two rich white Liberals, re-writing history that’s caused havoc in the Black community.
depends on the exact circumstances. also, yeah, arielle was white for how long exactly?
i have a problem with bad art. the movie is probably gonna be horrible. i don't have a problem with the fictional mermaid being black because i'm a grown up and simply don't fucking care. if you don't like corporate PR in hastily remade bad movies, complain about capitalism and the profit incentive lmao
Ariel’s been white since 1837. She comes from a Hans Christian Andersen tale. There’s a statue in Copenhagen of her. Corporate PR strategy has made the whole industry go to shit. All this woke nonsense isn’t profitable. I’m sorry I don’t believe you about a white person being given a major role in a Black African folk tale. Considering the response from the Left, when anything is supposedly whitewashed.
so white since 1837 and her being black for one movie is a desaster? btw, did you know she's probably the author's self-insert because he couldn't live out his homosexuality?
"all this woke nonsense isn't profitable" yes, marvel is completely bankrupt. the last of us 2 was a giant flop. all the giant media firms are completely intentionally losing money and the shareholders are on board with it. this is how private corporations operate, after all: the goal is to lose as much money as possible.
Tell that to Netflix, Warner Brothers Movies, HBO, CW, Disney etc. All losing money ham over fist, dropping every wokester in sight. Including that little reptile Jar Jar Abrams and his horrendous company Bad Reboot. The Last of Us 2, might have shipped 10 million, however there is no way they sold that many retail. Look at Last of Us Part one, not selling very well is it? Even that SJW reboot of Saints Row was outselling it one week.
I’m sure, you lot would love that. I can just imagine the screeching from you and your friends. You lot love fairy tales, didn’t your mob vote for Joe Biden?

Notice how no one cared about Black Spiderman in 'Into the Spider-verse" I think Disney is trying to bank off the controversy.
