How did I know what race the red head character would be cast as
Cuz it's made by (((Warner))) Brothers?
When modern western cinema adapts anything, it is guaranteed that a red head will be cast as a black person. Warner does this, like they've done here, and like they've done with Teen Titans, but so does Netflix (Witcher), and every other studio/producer. I don't know a single instance where a red head has not been replaced in the last 3 years.
Look up Leslie Grace. It's exactly what you're thinking when you read this title.
I was guessing Leslie Jones.
RIP Harambe
Another ginger sacrificed on the alter
The Gingercide must continue. I think the Annie remake was the point I realized Hollywood was trash.
I mean, I realized Hollywood was trash years ago when all we were getting was shitty sequels and remakes, but this shit just shoves them deeper down into the dumpster.
You got a problem with Blannie????
That is always a red flag for me. There is no other reason for race swapping than some woke nonsense. Back in the day race swaps were few and far between but now it’s just nauseating. Why not pick a black character, woman, or other minority from the source material instead of changing established ones.
You know why.
They're terrible writers, and anyway, it's not about the film, it's about the message.
They can't get mass circulation for the new stuff they write because they can't write compelling characters. They only know how to write NPCs like themselves.
The message is: You have already lost. This is us stamping everything you even like into the ground simply because you like it.
Just because that message is asserted vehemently it does not make it true. Personally, I think they've played their hand too early, but then "zealot" and "patience" rarely fit in the same sentence.
Great points.
Remember
when you see a White character getting replaced by a Black character,
when you see a male character getting replaced by a female character,
when you see a female character's sexuality getting defeminized,
when you see a straight character getting replaced by a LGBTwhatever character,
that a group of anti-White anti-male satanic rootless cosmopolitans did this.
Eventually theyll run out of people who feel sorry for them and history will repeat.
You spelled Barbara Gordita wrong.
Another Redhead with Green Eyes sacrificed on the altar of Globohomo.
When will we say enough is enough?
Well...at leas it doesn't have a penis, just a massive brown cunt.
At this point I think we should consider that she has a pussy a win.
Nope. I'd rather the guy who played Ron Weasley than another light skinned black bitch to replace a redhead.

So does that mean they're going to make Commissioner Gordon (or his wife) black?
In The Batman with Robert Pattinson (which is a different continuity), Commissioner Gordon will be black. Inching closer and closer to the core characters they really want. For Superman I would expect Lois to be next, they already got Jimmy Olsen and Lex Luthor. Within the decade we will have a swapped Batman or Superman, with normies finally learning about multiverses they'll have all the excuse they need.
And Perry White in Man of Steel played by Lawrence Fishburne.
Lex Luthor has been 'black' since the 90's, and unless there's a specific change to make the character more sympathetic, I don't really consider blackwashing villains to be 'woke'. Black Lex Luthor is less offensive to me than Jesse Eisenberg's portrayal.
I don't know that his race/ethnic heritage was ever specified. He was always some ambiguous brown in that, (hence why I said 'black' in quotes), but I've seen people refer to that version of Luthor as black.
I'm shocked.... SHOCKED! Well, not that shocked.
She's Dominican. That's the white side of the island. I don't understand how latins get a pass on being "colonizers".
I fucking KNEW this was going to be another anagramming
The funniest part is that if they had picked a GOOD actress, no one would care as much about their race. Heimdall, James Gordon, Shazam...they are all played by capable, respectable actors (Elba, Wright, and Hounsou respectively) and, while there was some backlash, it wasn't nearly as much as we see for some of these "literally who" casting choices.
I want Ruby Rose to make a cameo
And my boycott of DC films continues.
Ah, another Jogger iris west situation, I see.
When your casting director is dyslexic and reads the word "ginger" wrong.
Imagine my shock. Stunning. And. Brave.
Is she gonna team up with Blackman and Robbin’?
