Welcome to the era of crappy movies.

We’ve been in that era for about 15-20 years already, for the most part.

Can’t wait to see a white Dr. Martin Luther King (like that’ll ever happen).

These people are not interested in talent. It’s all about race with them.

Make a great film. Follow your own vision. Ignore the Oscars. Note which one withers and dies in the fullness of time.

For what it’s worth, the comments are uniformly negative.

But won’t everyone be dead from climate change by then? Who are they going to hire when everyone’s dead? I mean a guess you could do like Star Wars but a horror movie that starts in a later episode so everyone is already dead in the first movie that comes out. But other than that, well I mean still who’s going to make the statues?

Great question!

Do they have to actually be Asian, Hispanic/Latinx, Black/African American, Indigenous/Native American/Alaskan Native, Middle Eastern/North African, Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander or unspecified other underrepresented race - or could they just identify as one?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahahahahaha! !! ! ! ! ! ! !

Such stupid shit.

Dr. Zhivago with an all African-American cast. At least Omar Sharif was from Africa.

If I’d lost Julie Christie I’d be pissed off too.

My favorite scene in the whole movie was Klaus Kinski on the train...

White actors are becoming the minority. Who is DeNiro going to punch in the face now?
