What are they gonna do next, make Whoopi Goldberg white?
Whoopi Goldberg is a real person. Ariel is a fictional character. Not a good comparison lol
@JustinTheGreat They already made a black Anne Boleyn who was a real person.
@Cubus That’s true. I don’t think they should change races of real people. Then again one of my favorite musicals is Hamilton where they have POC play George Washington and other historical figures who were literal slave owners but hey lol
Regardless, Ariel isn’t a real person. The Ariel I’m the movies isn’t even accurate to the original Ariel In the books 🤷♂️
@JustinTheGreat It isn't, but she constantly have light skin in every media.
@JustinTheGreat So? What's your point?
Them making that Josie & The Pussycats chick black was REALLY stupid!! I guess they never noticed that there ALREADY ALWAYS WAS a black chick in the band Did they make the drummer black, too, or is there no such thing as a black bimbo? Well, now that I think of it. we already have a few of them, the White House press secretary, Whoopi Goldberg, that big fat Cabbage Patch doll that still thinks she won the election in Georgia and the black zombie that's running Chicago... into the ground!!
The next step will be that they're going to CGI EVERY white character in EVERY movie ever made into black people and the next step after that will be that any left over white actors will be forced to wear black face in every movie they do, thus bringing it all full circle!!
Bro honestly what are you saying lol
@Cubus They also want Santa Claus to be black.
@JustinTheGreat You don't know?
Basically, the ENTIRE IDEA of it is absolutely stupid as fuck!!
It’s just a kids movie. I don’t think there’s anything to be up in arms about lol
You’re a 55 year old man, be real do you genuinely care about the little mermaid THAT much?
@JustinTheGreat it has NOTHING to do with that stupid little cartoon!! You're just a 24 year old little boy! You believe all the bullshit they feed you every day! Maybe you'll finally get it when you BECOME a 55 year old man!! Maybe, by then, it'll be too late!!
I’ll get what? That changing the race of a fictional character doesn’t really matter that much? lol
i bet you’re the same person who will say something like “I don’t see color! I don’t care if you’re black brown or purple!”
@JustinTheGreat Yeah? So? You say that like it's a bad thing.
It’s hypocritical because you clearly care about race and color lol
You’re here arguing about the skin color of a fish. If you really didn’t care about race and didn’t see color, you wouldn’t care and wouldn’t think that a black girl playing Ariel is part of some agenda and plan to erase white people and CGI them in or whatever bs you were spewing lol.
@JustinTheGreat I DON'T care about race or colour! I tend (or at least TRY) to see people of ANY colour as just human beings! Why is that wrong? Groups like blm are the ones that are heavily colour-based and prejudiced
What I'm arguing about is how incredibly STUPID it is that, all of a sudden, EVERYTHING HAS to be about black people!!!
So you don’t care about race and see people of other races as human beings but you’re also crying because The little mermaid is being played by a black girl?
Do you not see how that doesn’t make any sense? Lol
@JustinTheGreat How about if we re-make "The Cosby Kids" and make all of the kids white? Why are there no orientals or hispanics being used in this way? Why isn't Disney remaking "Song Of The South" and changing uncle Reemus to a white guy? If having black cartoon characters is so wonderful,. all of a sudden, why is it I can't watch any Little Inki cartoons or any of the others Warner Brothers did with black characters? They did an all-black version of "Snow White" that we're not allowed to see!! White characters are okay but black or any other race aren't? How one-sided is THAT? I'm surprised they even allow us to have Daffy Duck!!
Mermaids aren't real, but you insist that they're white?
The goddamn writer sure did.
Why not make her a goddamn trannie while you’re at it and have her carry a rainbow flag and fight for all the queers under the sea. It’d be keeping with the times. She could even fight for you.
@Agagagagaga Wow.
Let’s assume mermaids are real. Would a creature that lives underwater need melanin?
@joeldalton Would they need lungs? Long hair?
I don’t know but will they need melanin? Simple question.
@joeldalton Stupid question. They're not real. They're supposed to be half fish, for goodness sake. They can be any colour at all, including black. Just like fish.
It’s ‘color’ dumb fuck. Or are you pretending you’re German, again? And half human. So again, would they need melanin?
@joeldalton Mermaids. Are. Not. Real.
@goaded. So weird you can’t answer a simple question. Surely if you believe a man can become a woman, you can use that same imagination to explain why an aquatic creature that is half human would need melanin.
@joeldalton I'll leave you to continue demonstrating your stupidity. You can chuck in another couple of lies, while you're at it.
@goaded you're unable to answer a simple question.
lol at the stupidity of the magats in this thread
still-alive, quit being a pussy and talk shit while having me blocked.
It's really disappointing... They kept the hair and feminine look... Why isn't she queer yet? I'm not pleased.. Not enough diversity 👎
I'm neither celebrating nor tearing out what remains of my hair. As far as I'm concerned it's a creative decision. It's not an abuse of my human rights.
Is she an historical figure? Is her race an important part of the character? The answer to both is no
Ah yes, no agenda at all
![What do you think about the decision to make the Little mermaid BLACK?]()
Like I said she’s not a historical figure
it is silly. It will also bomb at the box office.
I think it shows that it's trendy to hate and destroy white culture.
I mean have you listen to her sing? One of the most angelical voices I ever heard.
It’s very racist for her to be a person of color singing “I want to be where the people are” because it is a stereotype that people of color live in urban areas where there are a lot of people.
Disney just doesn't stop pushing their political agenda in our throats. We want to enjoy a movie, not getting lectured by woke disney.
So you just shouldn’t watch this Disney adaptation nor visit their parks. You shouldn’t give them any more money since they are doing things you dislike. But will you?
@DizzyDesii I haven't visited a disney park since 2009 and dont have disney+
Okayyyy just make sure all the future films coming out that you avoid if Disney made them
So you think its good what they're doing? Its not like they're "good in heart" that they now gender or race swap characters or put political messages in, they do it all for their greed lust for money, a larger audience, to get into the wallets of every "type" of human being
I think its good to make films diverse but it depends on if its called for. Seeing certain medieval films with someone of color in power doesn't seem realistic. I dont agree with a lot that goes on these days so i try to just distance myself from it
She's a fictional character so I don't care. I'm more concerned with Disney's history with live action remakes of animated classics.
What I mean is that Disney live action remakes are generally not very good, especially when compared to the original animated versions.
Please don't go on a shooting spree over this. OK?
Unless she's phenomenal (possible, but given we've never heard of her before, doubtful) it seems like a bad move. Not because she's black, but man--she isn't even moderately attractive!
We’ve heard her before, she makes music
@JustinTheGreat I suppose some people might call it that
She's gonna drown. They did not think this one through
It’s like how The Lost World: Jurassic Park was changed almost entirely from the book but a wee more wacky
I'm an adult male, I don't care about mermaids.
Doesn't bother me as I grew up with the animated movie.
it doesn't really matter what color the mermaid is
I said no because it's for woke agendas only
They definitely have an agenda which I don't care about because I won't be watching it
Funny how we dont bitch about all the foreign movies remade in America with white actors.
More accurate to the books and spot on voice for the disney songs
changing a character's appearance makes them harder to recognise
Yeah, I can't tell she's a mermaid at all.
I don't care. It's just entertainment. It's not that serious.
Not insulting, inclusive and a Money Making decision... Show Me the MONEY
I'm offended because I applied for the role and didn't get it
Maybe it's because I'm a man with a buzzcut I don't really know
Yes it is, and you know the people who defends it would be pissed if they turned Tiana white
Mermaids are not real…
@Chelsdope0 Neither are cyborgs, yet people bitched about Scarlet Johansson in Ghost in the shell. But if you think only humans are worth complaining about, I take it you would be all ok with people complaining about Disney's live action Snow White? Or the 2014 version of Annie where they turned Annie black?
Do you know what character will never be black? Tarzan.
What about Asian? Latina? Or Native American?
exactly.
honestly race shouldn't matter as long as the actor or actress is good at the role
It's just silly is all
No reason to freak out
Why can't she be Asian for once?
Who cares its a damn fish
Hahahahha thank you for this laugh!
Race bait made to further divide the country
I could care less lol
Wokeness strikes again.
Doesn't matter to me.
it's theft from white people
Yawn
yep changing established white characters into minorities because one lacks confidence of an original characters standing on their own is quite boring.
Nothing white people do is original. They take every idea from outsiders…
There needs to be a black Snow White
We don't need people jumping off a bridge now.
@DermalPunch a bit racist aren't you
Yes. I might as well be in the Klang.
Klan.
@DermalPunch you support that Trump clown?
I'm a black woman. I'm being facetious in that the butt hurt greedy racists who feel entitled to be front and centre always will be in such a frenzy they may just kill themselves over it. I have had nothing but repulsion and disdain for Trump as a human being since the 90s.
I'm not surprised.
Woke bullshit
It’s pretty stupid.
Don't care.
