I'm just trying to imagine liberal reactions if they remake movies with famous black characters and replaced them with white people...........

I am good with fictional characters being recast. But liberals sure as hell haven't been........ At least in one direction

Yup. I especially liked him in Creed and in Chronicle. He has incredible range. I actually think they made him a little too one note in Black Panther.

It's a fake character watched by millions of nerds. Why would anyone care?

Bad example. I'm referring to famous black characters that have no actual reason to be black.

Shawshank
Pulp fiction

Etc

The "what's your name?" Scene would be awkward

"what's your name"

"my name's Tom Jones"

"wrong boy, your name is Tom Jones, oh wait........."

Gotcha

But my point is that liberals would shite the bed if you remade Shawshank and made Redding white

Or replaced Jackson with a white dude in pulp

Meh. Comic geeks always find something to whine about.

If it is hell no. I'll never forgive him for throwing Black Panther off the water fall cliff.


I really wish MBJ had gotten the main role instead of the villain

I know they would.

Funny thing is that a lot of Morgan Freeman’s famous roles were written without regard to race of the character, like Red in Shawshank and Ned in Unforgiven.

Morgan won it due to quality of acting and they didn’t change the script as a result, meaning the odd bit in Shawshank where he says he’s called Red “maybe because I’m Irish” or them not saying anything at all about his ethnicity in Unforgiven.
