Peter Pan Is Too Old and Tinkerbell Is Black In Woke New Disney Movie

[Mikeoxenormous]

I don’t have a problem with tinker bell being black in and of itself. But the cumulative effect of every single remake of a movie or tv show changing the race of major characters is exhausting.

I guess this is the new normal going forward. If you remake a classic and don’t make some white characters black, then you’re a racist.

Blacks are only 14% of the total population of the US, yet they are seen 99% of the time in new commercials, or as you say, the movies, just because Hollyweird doesnt want to be seen as racists. I wonder why there arent more Latinos in the movies as they are larger in the percentage of US people, but barely seen in anything?

The actress playing tinkerbell was awesome as the Daughter in Blackish, and has done several children's movies. Good pick as she has excellent comedic timing.

Agreed except Tinkerbell is supposed to be a white blonde chick. End of story.

The title is pretty much self explanatory. Of course they have to ruin Peter Pan too. I do wish that Disney would leave the classics alone.

This shit again? FFS get over it.

They probably don’t complain as much

Even the black population is figuring out these characters are being tokenized because the creators are lazy and lack talent. And they think they just need to check minority boxes to skate by.

When the Mel Brooks “ Men In Tights “ had the Black Guy in it it opened the floodgates for Black folk in Kevin Costner’s “Robin Hood “ and every other Medieval Movie and even Viking & Druid offerings

Better to create new Black characters for movies and TV shows rather than appropriate White culture.

All in all it will bomb because it will be a hackish - thrown together movie that is pretty much becoming a common thing with Disney.
The black Pixie, I don't care... putting in girls in with the Lost Boys... okay odd since that is a significant part of the story, that they have never seen a girl before meeting Wendy.
But that is not why I have no interest, I have no interest because I am confident it will be what I already said.

Always the same. Race swap,gender swap emasculate the men and make the female characters insufferable. The end.

It seems that putting minorities in traditionally white roles has replaced good storytelling and script writing.

And Jesus wasn't white, yet he was played by a white actor.

Where's your thread on that??

So now Hebrews were folks of Color ?

Why?

They weren't white.

 

[Sunni Man]

They weren't white.

So the Semitics are not White ?

 

[braalian]

Why?

Because the original character was.

And, yes, I get it. Who cares?

The thing is, if a black character was “reimagined” as a white character, the Left would lose their collective shit.

Why is that? Why is that kind of double standard okay?

 

[Faun]

So the Semitics are not White ?

Your tense is fucked up.

They are now as many Israelites are emigrates from Europe and the U.S. Mostly following WWII.

That wasn't the case 2000 years ago.
