IMDb making "adjustments" to Little Mermaid reviews after mostly negative ratings

[citygator]

IMDB famously ended there comments section because it took too much effort to monitor for racist fucks. This place can relate.

IMDb is shutting down its infamous message boards

IMDb's message boards were supposed to encourage discussion among movie buffs, but that's not how they've turned out. If anything, they've developed a reputation for haters and trolls -- you'll even find naysayers ragging on people who like Casablanca and Citizen Kane. And apparently, IMDb has...

The IMDb boards haven't had strong moderation, making it all too easy for hollow commentary, personal attacks and even racism to go unchecked.

$200 Million Dollars sounds more like a tax dodge than an accurate cost accounting.

I long ago gave up trying to figure out Hollywood Accounting.

Yes, which is too bad because we could have some interesting discussions.

They do let you do your own reviews of movies, though.

Saying a black person's life matters sends you all into rage.

No, it doesn't. You don't speak for me, you spew lies.

No, it doesn't. You don't speak for me, you spew lies.

Too bad I've spent years witnessing it from your movement with my own eyes.

I don't have a "movement", and even if I did, it wouldn't place the value of a life on something as silly as skin color.
Why are you making shit up about my views? Can't handle the truth?

 

[rightwinger]

Movie theaters thank you for not going. They don't need Karens there.

Can you imagine going to a movie theater and having to sit next to Sassy?

Because sadly, that is all that many can do. If you do not agree completely with their warped view of the world, you are yet another of the enemy and must be attacked and destroyed.

Only one belief is allowed, and it is theirs. And in their mind, this is the best movie ever made. And anybody that does not agree for any reason is a racist.

The movie The Little Mermaid starring a black actress playing in white character have received mostly 1 out of 10 Stars ratings in the website IMDb.

But the company is arguing that conservatives are giving bad reviews to this movie in bad faith because the actress is black so somehow the average is 7.1.

Who could have possibly known that the only Black person living in Denmark in 1837 was a mermaid?

What color were the mermaids in Denmark?

 

[Dogmaphobe]

What color were the mermaids in Denmark?

In the original illustrations, they were all white for obvious reasons.

Damn, the things that need to be explained to those incapable of thinking, anyway!

Based on observations or fantasies?

It's a disgrace conservatives hate black people so much

What color were the mermaids in Denmark?

Well, this is how the author described her:

They were six beautiful children; but the youngest was the prettiest of them all; her skin was as clear and delicate as a rose-leaf, and her eyes as blue as the deepest sea; but, like all the others, she had no feet, and her body ended in a fish’s tail.

Then later in the story:

Her skin was delicately fair, and beneath her long dark eye-lashes her laughing blue eyes shone with truth and purity.

Hans Christian Andersen: The Little Mermaid

That is the words of the author of the tale itself, which should settle the matter once and for all. The Little Mermaid is "delicately fair" with blue eyes.

Of course they were. That is how the author described her.

Just as any painting or statue of Aragorn should reflect how the author described him.
