LITTLE MERMAID Live Action Movie's Ariel Has Been Cast

[gluon]

the problem is the blk girl is ugly

this.

[Scrizzle]

MLK should be played by Tom Hanks.

[pWally]

She has the face of a fish

No problem here

As long as she dyes her hair red and King Trident is black too I’ve got no objections... remember seeing a production of Cinderella years ago, with a black Cinderella (Brandy) and a Filipino prince who had a black mother (Whoopi Goldberg) and a white father (Victor Gerber). The fact that white plus black does not equal Asian really bugged me, it just didn’t make sense!

[faketaxidriver]

I'd watch it if they casted Kanye West. At least that would make sense since he's had a history of being a mermaid, rather than casting a black girl just because she's black.

If anyone's upset about not feeling represented in media, then why don't you just start producing your own chit instead of demanding that other people change theirs? Remember the Boondocks?

Not even trying to talk smack, that's just what I'd do. I think that mindset that society has to conform to all sorts of minorities is retarded. Just do your own thing in your own communities.

Wait a minute... The Little Mermaid, from Danish author Hans-Christian Anderson, that was publish in 1837, as in eleven years before Denmark abolished slavery?

Oh, dear... that is not going to end well for the Little Mermaid.


Joking aside, I don't think it would matter if the actress was attractive enough to warrant casting over a redhead, because this?
This ain't it, chief.

Also, it's like reading the knockoff brand of Halle Barry as far as casting goes with an equal amount disappointment.

The real controversy should be the brain dead plebs who keep propping up these lazy remakes. That damn mouse doesn't even have to try anymore to be an impenetrable, international juggernaut.

Its like doing the same thing to a MLK movie!!!

I think the example of the trend went over your little head.

Gotta love how everyone ...

Oh yes, the whites are at it again.

The ink had barely dried on Disney’s announcement that Halle Bailey will star in the title role of The Little Mermaid when meteorologists at the White Weather Channel had to issue a flash flood warning because of a sudden deluge of white tears.

Explain to me how that's not a form of a reverse racism?

The people who write for that very website praised the casting choices for the all black cast of the lion king remake but hypocritically had problems with people talking about the weird casting of the little mermaid.

"the lion king NEEDS to be all black when its a cgi film with voice actors but the little mermaid also needs to have a black cast.... just because we want it."

Bringing up the fact you're always hypocrites must really hurt.

Who gives a fuk. Are you guys seriously going to watch this movie?

They could have literally chosen a man, and I would not have cared, because I'm not going to watch this movie, nor have I ever cared about little mermaid. I swear, you guys waste so much of your time and energy on stupid shiit, and ignore anything of substance or value. You're all being duped to bitch and moan about the shiit that doesn't matter, while the shiit that matters goes unnoticed, and life and society as a whole erode from underneath you.

[EsB818]

IDGAF but you know they’re doing this to please some “woke joke” losers on twitter, a pathetic level of pandering. So fuk them.

[MyGhettoFantasy]

They should make a new mermaid movie about black mermaids if they want a black mermaid. And Jordan Peele should direct it.

Oh, what. Misc has a problem with that concept, too.

Lol bunch if phukking *******s. Cannot believe all you six figure, ten inch dink, investment savvy miscers have time for an eight page thread on Disney and Ariel.

[jesusxchrist]

I just wanna know where are the libs now that flipped out when Scarlett Johansson was in Ghost In The Shell

well , this thread isnt all about disney or ariel. you know it, i know it and everyone knows it.

I didn't see you saying this when black actors were upset that there could be a possibility a white actor would be cast in the lion king remake.

That bitching about how only black actors could do the voice work in the Lion King remake was insane. Does that mean that a new Bambi movie would need to be strictly done by white voice actors, or perhaps even strictly Native American voice actors? Should all of those Ice Age movies been made with strictly white voice actors? It wasn't even legit Africans they had doing the Lion King remake voice work, it was Hollywood morons like Beyonce ffs...

^^^^^ I found the pseudo-profound guy of the thread, folks.

LMAO at this arrogance. I hope some of my asian brahs realize that there are SOME people out there that see them and their women as nothing but inferior pets. You're right though, Asian people don't complain, and they need to wake up. Every time I hear an Asian woman ****ting on Asian man and idolizing everything but them, it makes me sad, because it's pathetic

The irony of this post is astounding. "Asian" people are not one homogeneous group: Chinese people tend to look down on most of the rest of 'Asia', as a quick example. So when you write 'my asian brahs' you come across (no offense) as a guy from rural North America who is anything but 'woke'. Just like the people on this forum that write things like 'African-American' - how do you think people from an African country feel seeing you write that? North Africa, anyone? Sub-Saharan Africa, anyone? Eritrea? Ghana? Want to talk to someone from Ghana and compare his background to someone from Nigeria? Want to talk to someone Chinese and compare his background (lol) to someone from Japan?

Tl;dr: writing 'Asian' or 'African' disgraces the rich and diverse cultural heritages across continents. So if you're trying to talk about how 'woke' you are when it comes to 'race' and 'representation' it might appear more credible if you actually respected this fact.

Of course, this is exactly what SJWs want - they want to foster 'group identities' to allow for collective blame, e.g. (as you see in this thread) 'blacks have little power here' or 'whites win more Oscars' - just a chit show of a basis for discussion, per the above.

you are drawing a bigger circle then you need to .... when it comes to misc,everything is rated per its sexual/racial preference..

so when miscers say african americans.... they mean black ....as most of the above african countries you mentioned are black "except for some algerians,tunisians and south africans"

when miscers say asians, they mean asian chicks and how they make these weird voices when they are getting it deep and hard

[wishingtravels]

I'm not sure what's the problem of Ariel being black, personally, I don't see any problem. Just like Captain Marvel being a girl.

[TurbanMon]

Literally the only post in this thread that is relevant.

FFS people get a grip! Unless you argument is "why don't they just cast a real mermaid" you really have no argument. And if you want to get all science like, out of all the marine mammals, only 1 is white. So theoretically......

So... Tom cruise for blade remake and Jackie Chan for clark Kent? Pablo Pascal for spawn?

These characters have very iconic and recognizable appearances. The fact that they're fictional does not change that.

Did you see the backlash Daniel Craig had initially because he was blonde?or every single Batman ever?

You guys do know the original Little Mermaid tale is a lot darker than the one recreated to the one we know today

I’m still not sure why people are arguing over a fairy tale

do you think posters here are honestly arguing about this interms of it being a fairy tale??

[RayBoccini]

Well whites are being replaced in real life.

As they say art imitates life..

[AwkwardRetard]

Wouldn't dark skin be useless on the seabed, biologically speaking?

[brianphi]

We been casting white guys as Jesus this whole time and none of ya'll cared... why the sudden outrage about a more modern fairytale?

[krs128]

people complain about the dumbest **** here.
