And anyone who’s read “To Kill a Mockingbird” would be surprised if Atticus Finch was black on screen as well.

Man this is ridiculous!

Pakistani restaurants hire pakistanis (and can actually bring in pakistanis to America for that purpose even if their entire town is unemployed) because “they want to be authentic”.

AFAIK, there are no dark skinned Hobbits.

Stick her in a long shot, way in the back, where nobody can tell who she is, much less if she is a “Pale-Face”. Then use up all the pancake make-up on her mug.

Hollyweird is the only industry that is allowed to discriminate.

Good thing they're not casting this movie today. ("Hey, so what if I'm 6'5"! I wanna be a Munchkin!")

I think we should get Mel Gibson to play Nelson Mandella.

Hobbits are little Englishmen in both manners and mores living in an isolated region of Middle Earth..

Putting a person of color in the role would be the same as substituting neoNazis for Jihadists in a nuke terrorist attack—so utterly unrealistic...

oops,forgot about that pc wreck,”The Sum Of All Fears.”

I volunteer to be Barky in his upcoming bio-pic. I have no acting experiencing and am melanin-challenged. Therefore, I'm perfect for the part.

And I want Summer Glau to play Shelly.

LOL. These PC casting decisions make movies unintentionally hilarious. Remember the plot contortions that were necessary to get Morgan Freeman into Kevin Costner’s Robin Hood?

Besides, I’d love to see a Muslim Hobbit. Think of the plot possibilities.

Were there any decisions based on color of skin when they were Filming Malcom X?

Did they consider an Asian woman for the role of Malcom X?

I've come to believe that most complaints about race these days equal, give me something for nothing.

"It's 2010 and I still can't believe I'm being discriminated against because I have brown skin,"

I'd discriminate against you because you're a frickin' idiot.

Naz Humphreys makes a good point. I mean Whoopie Goldberg would make a great Snow White.

Meanwhile, I was told I was too old for a modeling gig even though I played the same age (25) for a movie during the same time period. It happens. It is how the director envisions things. Not a personal insult.

PC moron. Hey! Can you imagine a white person whining because they don’t get to play... I dunno, Al Sharpton in a biopic?

There’s a certain point where liberals should just start having DUMB ASS rubber stamped on their foreheads, just to warn anyone around to ignore them whenever they speak.
