Snow White is now brown according to Hollywood

a reply to: putnam6

If you want to complain about bringing religion I to this, it wasn't me. I just replied to the post about Jesus being depected as white.

My biggest question I have is why are they trying to use the name Snow White? Is it just for recognition and greater expectations?

They could have changed the character names and made this into an entirely new franchise but they wanted to hedge their bets on this making money by reusing a known franchise instead of it being even slightly original. A good story is a good story. If you can't write a version that is based on Snow White without being Snow White then why bother rewriting it at all.

That's actually a good question.

It isn't because they want a new franchise.

They want to replace the story.

In my opinion.

Maybe it will be like a "Mandela effect" type of thingamabob conversation piece in years to come?

We are going to wake up one day and see that Nazis were actually Black and then you and I are going to use Disney as a verb.

Damn Andy, we've been Disney again!

Even though you called me a woke commie; I worship the ground Capitalism walks on.

I would never call a Commie, woke... It's too degrading...

My level, though I do like to debate, is to just scratch my head and ask why? Little Black girls love the original Ariel a lot more than the new one, BTW Ariel isn't even human. It would be like Nemo gets a color change from orange to purple, just doesn't work.

How is changing the colour of a "fictional" character's skin changing history?

This is to get a rise out of people AlienBorg, nothing more than a publicity stunt of sorts.

Again it does not matter what colour a person's skin is unless you make it matter.

Else shows like "Bridgerton" must really have flung you a curve ball or two.

History of the play, story, novel, characters.

And they dropped the "7 Dwarfs" from the title and, in doing so, excluded the dwarfism acting community.

Your wife wouldn't still be with you if she thought that you're her Prince Charming and Valient. She would have left you long ago out, of disappointment. Obviously, the very fact that she's still with you proves she's a down to reality kind of girl! LOL

Touché

My wife is also not White... SHhhh don't tell anyone as I don't want to ruin the old racist labels... lol

Compare the original story to the cartoon. They already completely changed the story.

Disney has always only cared about one thing, making money. For the most part, their live-action remakes have done well and the name recognition helps sell the movie.

The most hilarious video can be found online where Piers Morgan interviews a woke activist and a well known dwarf actor who hammers the woke ideology and the activist. A must see video.

Or with superman.
We know superman is a white heterosexual middle class humanoid. We don't want any change of the original scenario.

It's name recognition, but you can't really sell a Chevy and call it a Mercedes now, can you?

I don't mean to be a buzz kill on the thread, but that actually looked amusing.

I really don't see why the colour of the character should matter in this day of age."

Unsurprising, no one who support the radical leftist agenda sees a problem with this.

That right there is the most accurate and telling comment in this WHOLE thread. I've read the whole thread up to where my comment will appear. Thank you for accurately describing the true problem.
