“The western constantly changes depending on where we are as a society,” Fuqua explained. “What I wanted to do was bring it up to date and show people it’s an exciting genre. It represents who we are, what the promise of the United States is supposed to be.”
The 1960 “Magnificent Seven” — itself a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s 1954 epic “Seven Samurai” — had featured white actors in even some of the non-Caucasian roles, with Eli Wallach playing the bandit leader Calvera and Horst Buchholz as a young Mexican gunslinger named Chico.
In Fuqua’s remake, by contrast, four of the title heroes are nonwhite, including Washington’s Sam Chisolm; Comanche warrior Red Harvest, played by Native American actor Martin Sensmeier; South

That kid actually did alright in that piece of crap. The flaws weren’t because of him, despite the PC marketing choice. The stink bombs were caused by the Ford and ‘General Organa’ dog squeeze.

And I thought I didn’t want to see this movie before.
These movie producers should realize that the last thing people want is SJW BS infecting their movies. You would think the bombing of the latest Ghostbusters movie would have proved that.
A PC Magnificent Seven is about a painful way to spend a couple of hours that I can imagine.
However, I noticed that the Brynner/McQueen original is playing this week on my cable system. That could be a very pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.
It wasn't 1/3, it was 1/4
Jim Beckwourth was a black Mountain Man. he led Chivington to Sand Creek.
Bill Pickett started the rodeo competition of bulldogging (steer wrestling).
Bass Reeves was a deputy US Marshall in Indian Territory.
I can’t get the link to copy; it’s from the BBC, but there are others, including the Texas State Historical Association.
When the director of the movie said-
"You look around the room and see the whitest f****** room in history of time. It's just unbelievably white. And I thought, we're casting this show and have an opportunity to do anything we want, why not just cast the show with actors of color?" - J. J. Abrams
I kind of lost interest
The "seven" are a disparate band of Old West has-beens, wanna be's and I-still-got-its. They each have their own skills they bring to the action. Lots of shooting and violence, if that bothers some.
Best movie I've seen this year.
If the acting of Ford and ‘general organa’ would have even been half passable it would have done fine as a piece of crap star wars thing. Despite the casting intention, that black kid was not a detriment to that piece of crap. Quite the opposite, the kids in that thing out-acted the decayed returning actors by far, at least in my opinion.

So your theory is that Satan is trying to eliminate white people? Do I have that right?
Yes. The Antichrist wants as little opposition as possible to build his one-world empire. We are the only people that could stand in his way. Everyone else would flock to him. Kneel before him. We could bloody his nose. It's in our genes. He understands genes. In Israel, thousands of years ago, he tried the same thing with the Israelites. He tried to breed them out of this world by flooding the Assyrians into Northern Israel. This is nothing new for him. See a threat- eliminate a threat.

Two cavalry regiments were black. Eight weren’t.
Two infantry regiments were black. Twenty-three weren’t.
No field artillery regiments were black.
No coastal artillery batteries were black.
No engineer companies were black.
Awaiting someone to show me that I’m wrong.
Maybe you should do some research. In the 19th century, an estimated 25% of all cowboys were black, including one of the most famous cowboys of the time, Nat Love. Racial discrimination in the early 20th century pretty much did away with black cowboys so it’s not surprising that you’ve never seen one.
Define this genetically pure race.
The only ones to stand in Satans way will be the church, which the Bible teaches us is made up of people’s from all tribes, nations and kindreds. The amount of melatonin in our skin is not relevant.
Another gun flick.
LOL!
George Soros (one of Satan’s chew-toys) seems to think we’re a threat
Soros’ opinion does not define biblical truth.
I guess I missed this part of the Bible. You realize that inherent in what you’re saying is a belief/presumption that only white people can be “pure” enough to defeat evil/Satan, right? How is that any different than what a white supremacist believes?
