Hunger Games fans upset over Black Actors

America really needs a reality check! I really don't mean to beat the same dead horse, but the article linked below really punctuates the topics we discuss in this forum regarding race relations...

I'm not surprised one bit at how shallow and moronic these so called "fans" really are.

 

Shitty reading comprehension.

Dumb and bigoted! Winning combo right there.

 

Sounds like they think the franchise is "tainted" because of a few little "dark spots" here and there.

 

the fly in milk syndrome

 

Here are some funny quotes from the comments section, with the exception of the first one. :smt042

 

LOL, the more I think about it I realize us human being are no different than the Lions on the savannahs or the Tiger in the jungle the only difference is they rely on their natural instinct.

We claim to rely on our higher intelligence, that is the shocking part.

I mean reading most of the comments Mikey posted above is the stuff of sheer stupidity.

Bunch of keyboard morons.

 

the results of chewing tobacco teachers in the education system



educated people are such snobs

 

SHHHHHHH! The secret's out now!!!!

 

LOL

 

This is a work of fiction. Why all of those complaints?

 

Ask the assholes who bitched about Idris Elba being in Thor

 

Heimdall isn't black tho

one of the Hunger Games characters was dark skinned, and the other had no identification

those people were just straight up racists for being mad that the dark-skinned character, would be portrayed by someone black

 

Either way it's crazy

Why white out the only roles that are probably the only black ones in the whole movie?

These people mad as fuck over this

Heimdal was understandable but this shit is straight up racist

 

I disagree Heimdal wasn't understandable. Don't you know the princess in the clash of the titans was suppose to be Ethiopian. In the original Greek story she is black Hollywood turned her white. In wanted the movie with Angelina Jolie originally the character was suppose to be black. I think the black woman in the wanted comic was modeled after Hallie Berry.

So it goes both ways they are always changing black characters to white.

Tho I know for a fact that there's many good white people the majority of white folks are fair. And yet blacks need to realize that racism is apart of white culture. It's really a miracle that all white's are not racist.

 

doesnt surprise me

mofos think all africans of importance were white



real power is telling people what's the truth, even when it is not, and getting them to believe you

 

No one was bitching that the main character was Australian instead of Norse. Btw it was a Marvel adaptation

 

australian? norweigen? who cares as long as he's still white

you know that as well as I do, Brooklyn

 

But it was Marvel adaptation not actual Norse mythology

 

forgot heimdal was as black as wesley snipes in the marvel canon

my bad
