Was there a big controversy when he was cast as God?
believe it or not, race relations in early 2000's were probably the most healthy ever
>>68676172
I lived in Abu Dhabi at the time it came out and they banned it there
>>68676172
People didn't care back then. If they didn't like something, they wouldn't go see it.
Social media and everyone being able to spew their retarded opinions online is cancer.
no. everyone knows he has the voice of god so they just let the fact that he doesn't have the skin color of god go.
No one gave a shit because based morgan freeman
I'd cast Jeff Bridges as god.
there was. the internet didn't come until later tho.
>>68676558
it's not hard to believe. obsessing about group identity shockingly seems to make people more likely to think of you as a member of your group
>>68676558
This, I miss pre-PC America
The internet didn´t exist back then, so it wasn´t that big of a shitstorm
no because it's supposed to be funny, it's a comedy movie
>>68676172
It's great casting. Only a faggot would get mad
>>68676558
This. Before eight years of Obama race-baiting and turning blacks against whites, we were having some of (arguably THE) best years of race relations in this country.
>>68676855
>thinks the internet didn't exist in 2003
How old are you kiddo?
To Christians, god is a triune being without a body, so there's no whitewashing because god doesnt have a skin color.
>>68676855
>The internet didn´t exist back then, so it wasn´t that big of a shitstorm
>2003
sure.
Because he's a cool black guy and not a nig

...4chan was around the same year Bruce Almighty released.
>>68676558
>hurricane katrina
I don't remember any controversy when it came out. I'm glad so too. If it as announced today every blogger would be talking about it, and /tv/ would be full of 'WE WUZ GOD XDDD' type posts. I'm glad I experienced a less annoying time at one point of my existence.

t. a child growing up in the early 2000s
>>68677027
weather is racist
>>68676855
SOlid bait, got some nice (you)
>>68676906
I always felt that this PC shit started during the ZimZam trial.
>>68677089
Sure, bro. Tell us all how less racist things were any decade before.
>>68676770
True, especially after Tron: Legacy
>>68677062
>If it as announced today every blogger would be talking about it,
That's the thing that sucks now. There's always hundreds of articles about the backlash when casting a person of color, but all I really see is a few racist comments online. It seems the bloggers are just trying to stir up a shit-storm that didn't really exist so they can justify their self-righteous SJW shit.
>>68677236
no its to drive pageviews
>>68677284
Yeah definitely
no
pre 2012 race was becoming less and less relevant
but then baby Tray Tray was viciously murdered by a blonde Aryan man and white racism became worse than ever.
RIP skittles boy
>>68677236
>>68677284
>>68677317
The people that own and create content for sites like buzzfeed and vice should dragged in the street and shot
>>68677399
>blonde Aryan man
>>68676770
young jeff bridges in the original Tron was the most handsome man in the world
>>68677104
Dude you gotta be retarded to not realize that blacks got disproportionately affected by katrina. Only white people lived in neighborhoods with levees
>>68676906
>Obama race baiting
Cool meme. This started with Zimmerman and Trayvon.
>>68677104
You're either ignorant, a child, or both.
>>68677631
They were warned a shitload of times to evacuate the fucking city, they have no one to blame but themselves (not to mention they fucked up every neighborhood the moved into).

No, /tv/ and was actually usable back then and/pol/ was self aware and stayed where they belong.
>>68677746
He had no say in it
>>68677399
>tfw politics right now could have been much more logical and rational if it wasn't for tray tray
>>68677800
He wanted to be the cool twitter president so badly
>>68676558
Pretty much this.
People were accepting of it and loved Bruce Almighty.
Morgan Freeman is a modern Uncle Tom
>>68677668
You're right, but Barry O. escalated it by race-baiting during that shit storm.
>>68677716
true desu senpai but blacks are entitled to special treatment by society and ur naive if u havent realized it by now
I say this as an Indian immigrant who gets screwed by affirmative action every time
>>68677631
Do you live in fucking New Orleans? EVERYONE was affected, regardless of where they lived. The best bet was to get the fuck out, but the traffic was shit.
why did this guy >>68676855 collect all the (You)s when >68676792 was first??
>>68678024
dude the closest i've gotten to new orleans in my life is when i played the infamous 2 demo at best buy lol
>>68678101
a subtle, yet powerful lesson in trollery, my friend. take this lesson to heart.
>>68676172
nobody cared because it's morgan freeman
if it was some ghetto nigger they probably would have cared
>>68678158
haha suck my meaty cock bro no homo
>>68677668
HE A GOOD BOI DINDU NUFFIN
>>68678158
>He never played Hitman: Blood Money
I want """people""" like you to die
>>68678158
brah, what about that sick new Mafia game?
>>68678325
>mfw I fully upgraded the M4 and went No Russian on the crowd
Feels good man
>>68677716
yeah because just packing up and leaving everything behind is so easy
It was mostly the far eastern and middle eastern folks because they didn't like the fact a human was portraying God
>>68678391
It is if you're not a fucking moron and take what you absolutely need, they knew of this storm system weeks in advance and chose to stay instead of at least getting out of the area (and complaining that they didn't get enough help for their stupidity).
If you're living on the coast it should be pretty obvious that you will need to be prepared for any hurricanes or tropical storms.
>>68678391
You're right, dying is easier.
>>68678201
I don't understand the lesson please elucidate
