The makers of movies and TV shows are just itching to splash a tranny on the screen to convince us that tran is good, and that we should all give special privileges to trans and let them throw us in jail for using the “wrong” pronoun.

Like hell.

It's so friggin' rampant now it's nearly impossible to watch anything where it doesn't eventually rear its ugly head. Two to four per cent of the population should NOT have that much influence. 😡

She is playing a trans-woman? Maybe they didn’t think she was passable.

Didn’t we already do this with “The Crying Game”?

If Hollywood actually paid taxes they couldn’t afford to make Tranny Movies.

We're told that we must be tolerant and accepting of the Gay Community, but when the roles are reversed, we don't seem to get much tolerance or acceptance from them.

I say we base our levels of acceptance and tolerance on what we receive from the perverts, pedophiles and drag fags on their side. This "special treatment" for weirdos and reprobates isn't codified into any Law that has my consent, and absent our consent, that authority does not exist.

This is actually good news because Johannson has now set the precedent that actors should refuse to play trans roles unless they are trans. Such movies will be much more difficult to make now because there won't be any bankable stars in lead roles. Likely only small, independents films that most people will never see, and for which the ad campaigns really won't exist.

Well done!

She played a clone in the movie “The Island” why can’t she play a transgender?

First time that the term “pulls out” and the name “Scarlett Johanson” were ever mentioned together.

You win the thread!

I always thought that the second fight with Patterson took all of the fight out of Johansson.

The very essence of "acting" is be be pretend to be a person they'll not. Nobody expects Gal Gadot(Wonder Woman) to be an 'superhero" and be able to defect millions of bullets.( Dave's Site Same here. But then, reality has a different meaning in Hollywood.

Should we tell these idiots that Tom Cruise isn't really a spy? Assuming some of them like Mission Impossible it could really be a downer to find out he was only ACTING.
