A side note on the planet of the Apes. It was always about blacks rising to power and taking over the world. The whole movie series is about blacks and their white counterparts. The latest is no different.

I doubt it was racism-motivated. It seems more like a "make people afraid of guns" thing than a racism thing.

You dont have to insult me. I have done some editing before and have missed points. You mean to tell me that you never seen them run a wrong video to a story, or the video image cuts off all off a sudden. I like to think there is good in people and they didnt intentionally do that.

Recently, Hollywood released a movie called "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and while this movie for those that know, is on its third Hollywood remake,so while the actors, filming, CGI and special effects have gotten better, I find issue with this latest Hollywood release, because I fear it is being promoted at a time in Americas history when our economy is in the dirt and the historical and racial attitudes of Americans have changed significantly due to those economic and financial reasons.
This movie has never been made or remade before ever. This is an entirely new story and film. The fact that you compare it to brainwashing in order to foment a race war because you somehow feel the primates represent black people makes about as much sense as saying that "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" "The Hills Have eyes" "House of a 1000 corpses" etc. are all warnings about the what will happen when simple country white folk rise up. All them white folks kill and eat each other right?edit on 4-8-2011 by Undertough because: (no reason given)

Any good editor checks his work before submission.
Sorry, if you do not do this, you are simply an proficient editor.

This is not a minor thing, this is malicious, pre meditated racism made to hurt African Americans, sickening!

whats the point. instead of a feel good story of a young inner city kid wanting to be a cop and protect his neighborhood, they try to portray him as an ignorant future gangbanger.
well, they probably succeeded, because when he gets a little older he'll be able to look back and get his first taste of racism.

If you have a client, or a boss, project manager, whatever, and you produce flawed work, then you suck.
The point is, this was not an accident, and if anyone did mess up like that in any case, they are a terrible editor.
An editor gets paid to edit....for someone else.
