The Death Wish movies were clearly multi-cultural in their criminals; they are not about hunting down black people. As usual the SJWs are the racist ones, assuming that "criminal" means "minority", when it just means "committing violent crimes".

MGM Pictures released the first trailer for its remake of the 1974 vigilante classic Death Wish on Thursday, featuring Bruce Willis taking over the lead role — but some critics and commentators have already branded the unreleased film “racist,” “alt-right,” and “nakedly fascist” over the short clip’s content.
Willis stars as Paul Kersey, a surgeon on a brutal quest for revenge after his wife is murdered and his daughter is raped (Charles Bronson’s Kersey was an architect in the original five-film series).
The remake also trades out the original film’s gritty New York City environment for contemporary Chicago.
The trailer for the Eli Roth-directed film plays like most revenge films, promising plenty of gunfighting and shots of star Willis looking tough. In a twist on the original character, Willis’ Dr. Kersey wears a hoodie, an item of clothing associated in recent years with the Black Lives Matter movement.
The trailer for the film came under fire on social media shortly after its release Thursday, with at least one critic contending that the original series was “always racist.”

I just watched Death Wish again a few nights ago. Jeff Goldblum showed his ass while forcing Kersey's daughter to go down on him. Back when I watched the movie decades ago, I had no idea who the punks were. Kind of weird seeing it now and knowing who Goldblum is, and him displaying his rear. Yikes.
If by “beyond sick” you mean “so over them they don’t even register other than as objects of ridicule”, I’m with you.
That means this is going to make a lot of money.
They’re sooooooo afraid of us...
One little movie that might have a conservative bent... up against EVERY OTHER FILM PUT OUT THIS YEAR - with the usual ‘liberal elite’ take on the world. And they’re afraid? Yes.
That’s fear.
Metrosexuals all.
Perfect role for Willis. Trailer looks like a lot more perps get killed than in the original movie.
Cracker-ass crackers ?

ohhh nooo,
We needs another broke back mountain to influence our yut
not some movie like this.
YOu go there Bruce. Will be looking forward to seeing this once it gets out of the theaters.
I know Laurence Hilton-Jacobs (Freddie ‘Boom-Boom’ Washington) was in it. So was Olympia Dukakis.
Wow.. the preview along with “Back in Black” gave me chills ;^)
Definitely must watch this one :~D
Excellent little gem of a film!
“You have failed to maintain your weapon, son!” LOL.
...and don’t forget the parrot!
Moral: Racist is necessary. Discrimination is required for survival
I saw the first Death Wish last year with Bronson. I understand it had many sequels. Didn’t see them. Vigilante.
