>Production held an open casting call last week, and it’s clear from the character descriptions that DuVernay is setting this up to be a more diverse version of the story than Disney’s 2003 made-for-TV adaptation.
>A 14-year-old mixed-race girl of African-American and Caucasian descent. “This girl is questioning her life, her place in the world and her family. While troubled, she possesses untapped strength and intelligence which carries her through her search for truth.”
>A 5-year-old mixed-race boy of African-American and Caucasian descent. “This boy is extremely intelligent and articulate. He is strong and loving and hypersensitive.”
>A 16-year-old boy who is an ethnic minority. “He is a handsome, fit, caring young man who becomes a friend to the above two kids.”

So the moms going to be white (probably blonde, blue eyed) and the dad will be a nigger.

Hooray!

Take a fully black kid to the tryouts

When he flunks out, make a fuss about racism. Get the NAACP involved.

Does their race have any bearing what so ever on the plot? No? Then it doesn't matter that they aren't white
>>
>>69881455
Their father doesn't leave them and refuse to pay child support he gets kidnapped, they are clearly white kids.
>>
>>69881455
Doesn't matter that they're black either.

Yet right before your eyes is "We want Mulattos".
>>
>hire black actors
>"see, we bout to get dat chedda! Stay mad honky"
>entire set crew and film production is white guys

Maybe they should have some nigger splicing and dicing it. Make it real affirmative action style. Minorities in most of the behind the scenes roles through the entire creation of the movie
>>
>>69881521
Exactly, it doesn't matter. That's why its wholly up to the director just like every other "meaningless" artistic decision that the director puts into the movie.

>Liberals turn it into a secular soulless cash-grab filled with DIVERSITY (tm), i.e. ugly mulatto rejects

Why can't Liberals or Blacks for that matter just write anything of their own and then cast other minorities?
Why do they constantly have to hijack properties owned by Whites, Chistians, etc.

I legitimately hope this bombs, just like Fan4stic, the Annie remake and all the other race-bait bullshit.

Bombs away

Does this woman have the most bloated, punch-able Liberal face in all of Hollywood?

>>69881985
Because the director is black and wants to. See >>69881918
It's no different than choosing the filming location or costumes

I know /pol-tv/ likes to act like Annie was a total flop, but it did $85m on a $65m budget. That's a respectable box office for a remake of a children's musical that has basically no resonance with anyone born after 1950.
>>
>>69883569

It's more about Dogma than money at this point, shockingly enough.
Suits in places like Sony, Disney, etc. are willing to throw away millions just to promote an agenda. It's not ideal, but they view it as a viable sacrifice more often than not.

Same with Target losing business due to their "tolerant" policy on bathrooms but doing it anyway.

Liberalism is a religion at this point.
>>
>>69885796

>I know /pol-tv/ likes to act like Annie was a total flop
It woefully under-performed compared to what its creator's needed it to do. A lot of its profit was eaten-up by things like advertising.
>>
>>69879376

I like that they now want to cast mixed people to cover all bases.
>>
>>69881455

It doesn't matter that a Jewish woman is playing a robot in Ghost In The Shell and look how buttmad that got people.

Remember that time white people remade Roots with white slaves? Remember that time white Shaft remake? Remember that sci fi movie with a white guy as the Great JuJu?

Fucking whites.

>>69885796
That's a monetary loss you dumb fuck. Profit and gross are two different things.
>>
I havent watched any nu type movies at all this year. Its all just shit.
>>
>>69885796
That's the production budget. Marketing would be something like 20-40 mil more on top of that.

It failed.
>>
>>69879376
Yep. Called that shit as soon as she got picked up.
>>
>>69886726

Nothing in Hollywood is recorded as profit anyhow. Fuck, man, the Star Wars Trilogy is on paper as a loss. Exceeding cost on a film that's been made half a dozen times is more than Hollywood deserves for repeating itself so much.
