I don't see a problem here. I'm sure he was just the best person for the role. Besides, history needs to be updated for a modern audience now and then.
Well he must not have voted for Joe Biden.
I might be missing something here, but aren't they right?
William Mapother is playing "Marine Sergeant Thomas." Thomas is black. Mapother is not.
The ironic part here, the other marine, Dave Karnes, didn't get anywhere near as much attention in the real world, and the movie apparently does him dirty too, because the director had an axe to grind or something.
From Wikipedia:
So, yeah, I might be totally missing the point, but where's the projection in this instance? Race swapping real, living people is pretty tasteless, in any direction.
Also from Wikipedia:
That's the most pathetic excuse ever, actually, and makes them look worse. Did you even talk to the people you were basing the movie around? Holy fuck.
EDIT: Thinking about, I think I missed the forest through the trees; the projection/hypocrisy is that they cheer on raceswaps the other way. And that's true, but they're still right in this instance, and this is a really shitty - and downright offensive - casting decision. But yeah, they have no moral high ground, since the point is just hating white people, and they have no consistent principles.
To borrow a phrase, 'Your rules, applied fairly.'
They've had no issues with race-swap up until this point(especially when is serves as their propaganda, see: Adolescence). Ergo, they shouldn't have an issue with this one.
They do, and we all know why. So, I don't care.
They have a point. Kind of funny to complain about this given the last 10 years, though.
Yeah, because they found one swap in the other direction, all they're race swapping is excused.
I don't agree with any race swapping especially real people but it's funny as shit

That's how I got it. Maybe there are png demolition derbys?

How does the meme go? The world we grew up in is gone?
