The only way to stop Hollywood from racially swapping classics is to stop paying for it.

I don't know why they're racially swapping all the classic characters.

But people not seeing that crap should hopefully get Hollywood to change. Disney is toning down the LGBT stuff now.

Speaking of Peter Pan, this movie has already been adapted to live action movie treatment several times before this upcoming release.

Talk about something that absolutely did not need to be revisited.

Tom Hanks in Pinocchio got annihilated. And so has Black little mermaid. Yet they keep on cranking out these abominations.

But for the most part, the people bitching are not going to/paying to see the movies. And there are enough leftist (or whatever) idiots that will support it just enough for enough money to be made that keeps them to being made, yet not so much that they can’t bitch about “homophobe racist bigots” as the reason their movies didn’t make more money.

Why would anyone give a shite about this? Its a fictional character.

Ask the people going character by character and changing them. They must have a reason other than a political agenda, right?

Lamest, most disingenuous take to this nonsense.

Movies are made to make money. But the current trend to piss off fans of established characters and stories will fail massively.

So you have to ask - why are they doing this?

* if they will do it for fictional characters, what makes you think they won’t go for historical ones next?

That then begs the question, why were they changed if no one cares?

I'm doing my part!

I'm also barely supporting non-woke entertainment, so it's not much.

Changing a characters race isn’t the problem and most people with children under 10 would agree with that. Black or white doesn’t matter to most 8 year old kids that live in a two parent household that have raised them right.

Clearly not. People aren't paying for it.

They’re not making the money they could make, & it’ll eventually come to a head. I haven’t paid for their shite in years.

No they're not. I don't know why anyone thinks this will stop.

Hollywood is out of money. They can't keep making shite like this if they hope to survive.

Also remember that these films like Peter Pan and the new TMNT were all made and greenlit probably 3-4 yrs ago, when the industry was at its peak virtue signaling/Pandering.

If they're still making shite like this in 2025 or 2026, I will be pretty surprised. The entire industry is unsustainable at this point of this shite continues.
