Wasn’t Damon supposed to leave the country?
Chuck would slap that fool’s mouth around to the back of his head.
Matt Damon can play whoever he likes and accept as big a salary from any source. He will receive no criticism from the Hollywood elite as longer as he continues to make his assigned contributions to the Democratic Party ,Planned Parenthood, PETA and other Leftist causes.
Based on the description of the “Great Wall”....it’s a highly graphic monster movie....a Chinese-version of Godzilla, and it has Matt Damon as the monster-fighter. Normally, it would appeal to the under-21 crowd only (without Damon). So it’ll collect an extra hundred million in the US because of Damon.
You should expect a dozen-odd movies like this over the next five years....as Chinese film producers try to make epic films with hired US actors in white-washed roles.
Leftist logic:
It isn’t Whitewashing if a liberal actor does it. It is if World War II veteran does it.
Matt Damon couldn’t carry Chuck Connor’s jock. Damon wouldn’t last five seconds if he said that to his face.
Matt Damon wasn’t even a twinkle in his daddy’s eye in 1962.
He knows nothing about it.
A Chinese actor or an African actor can play Lincoln and I wouldn’t call it “yellow washing” or “black washing”. I could keep an open mind without dismissing it from the start because of race. A good actor could probably transcend the racial aspect.
When will the same critics decry the “Blackfacing” of Santa?
So using Damon’s lingo, the cast of Hamilton would be mega “blackwashing”, and therefore mega unacceptable.
The media propaganda machine is going to go into overdrive to brainwash Americans so that we just accept whatever they have planned for us.
I’ve enjoyed some of his movies. Rounders was really good.
Why not forget about Damon and instead explore some of Zhang Yimou’s films? I recommend HAPPY TIMES and NOT ONE LESS.
So whites can’t play nonwhites, but nonwhites can play whites? Like blacks playing Santa Claus?
They can just appropriate all our culture and thats cool with you huh Matt?
Liberals sacks of shit like Matt Damon always keep their hypocrite credentials well validated.
who cares what ethnicity, race or nationality an actor is when he plays a role... it’s ACTING! why shouldn’t Chuck Connor play Geronimo? why must a homosexual play the gay role? In any case, Matt Damon plays an English mercenary... it’s not like he stole a role from an Asian actor...
When I think of ‘whitewashing’ I think other people doing the deed, never me. That’s whitewashing and that’s unacceptable,” he said,
Oh, is the poor dear getting eaten by the crocodile already?
You’d think the neo-marxist SJWs would leave their fellow traveling Chomskylander for last.
There’s a reason that Stalin called his useful idiots idiots. They were the first up against the wall once they were done being useful.
