I know. I’m not replying to you specifically. I’ve seen this point raised by others over the last two or three days. Sorry for any misunderstanding.
OK :)
We really do have wise black men and wise black women who have good ideas to solve problems. They’re conservatives, and the liberals hate them and say racist things about them.
True on all points; maybe they just realized that the overt racial scab-picking (like “12 Years a Slave” and “The Help”) were becoming tiresome even to black moviegoers...
My family has seen none of the remakes that are directed towards black audiences; let them pay to see them. I don’t need to spend my hard-earned money fomenting hate.
The wishful thinking/social engineering in Hollywood’s bizarro world doesn’t bother me either; seeing any of these movies would be like seeing a foreign film (and with few exceptions, I don’t watch foreign films).
They see a niche where they can rake in some dough - go for it!
Very funny! I forgot all about “The Wiz”; was that basically a remade Wizard of Oz?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I’ve heard some jokes along those lines, about blacks in both “The Flintstones” and “The Jetsons”...
