I really don’t understand how some of you enjoy anything in life when you watch a movie that doesn’t even mention race or sexuality in the slightest, not a single line, but come away offended because the bad guy was white and one of the two good guys was a black woman.
I think most people would just think it’s nice if every once in a while there was a movie or tv series where the straight white guy wasn’t a bumbling idiot man child or a lazy naziesque racist. I mean let’s face it, in the real world and in real life 99% of the time the straight white guy is the smartest one in the room or being the hero in a war or dragging a baby out of a burning building while the sassy black woman is selling newports at the gas station or stamping forms at the DMV. But somehow Hollywood has it completely backwards nearly all the time. And that’s because they are really the ones who live in a political bubble, not random posters on tiger droppings. Hell, the cast specifically to get enough minority characters to fill their made up minority quotas. And they do it only to feed their own vanity and try to convince themselves that they aren’t racist or bigots. But you and I and everyone else knows that they are all more bigoted than an Alabama sister fricking trailer park Klan rally.

Most people don’t think of this at all

Good God, man. Is there any part of life that you don't view through caricatures and stereotypes?

did you even watch the movie. Daniel Craigs character was the smartest guy in the movie and solved the murder

Hollywood definitely lives in a bubble. But based on what you typed as your view of white and black people, you live in a bubble as well. Just a redneck version of it.
