The greater concern and matter of import is how white male actors are portrayed. Therein lies who will be the role models of the young seedpod going forward.

Let's see what the Census Bureau itself tells us about the market for movies...

It’s who brings in the most money. Hollywood doesn’t care as long as their leading men bring in the $$$. If the A-listers are predominantly white, there’s a reason for it.

Study: Biggest Hollywood films still go mostly to white men
Or maybe - and hear me out here - maybe they're the biggest Hollywood films because audiences want to see guys like Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves more than they want to see black or white women in leading roles.

Go “woke” - go broke.
Push diversity really hard in Hollywood and the film business will be destroyed.
Idiots.

“despite considerable evidence that more diverse films attract larger audiences”
Sure, the same kind of “evidence” that they used to say that cloth masks can stop airborne viruses.

By the looks of my recommended movies on streaming sites I watch there is absolutely no shortage of movies with black people in them. All the streaming services apparently think I’m black for some reason, or they just recommend the same movies to everybody.

Sub-Saharan Africa (black folks) make up about 12% of the population. They speak many different languages. If half of them spoke the same language and didn't have an absurd death rate from hedonism and even bad hygiene practices (such as peeing and pooping next to your drinking water), they'd be an economic force to contend with.
But they choose not to be.

Hollywood gives a lot of jobs to minorities. Jewish people are only 3% of the population and they get plenty of jobs in show business

I think they, and television studios, should go all-black. They also should never televise anything scene that involves a gun.
I've got a box full of Mack Bolan paperbacks to catch up on while the world burns down around me.

Today I couldn't care less what color those associated with a particular film are. I still won't see it....won't buy it...won't buy a ticket to it.

The Wokesters have only themselves to blame - who was it who canceled Song of the South? Maybe they should reshoot it with a little black boy getting moral lessons from a kindly white man - Johnny Depp would be awesome - Zip A Dee Doo Dah!

Well, Hollywood has to do something to add authenticity and realism to their movies.

I have wondered about that. In watching TV advertisements it seems the percentage of black actors is well above percent of the published population - 13% - ditto that for movies on screen and TV.

I watched a couple of movies for the first time in years a couple nights ago. I was taken aback how juvenile and unbelievable they were. 90% of them all the play actors did was talk and pose for the cameras...It was soap opera like. What an utter waste of my time that was.
