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.

I just watched the movie The Dark Knight for the first time.
It had a bunch of GREAT actors in it:

Christian Bale (British White guy)

Michael Caine (British white guy)

Heath Ledger (dead American white guy)

Morgan Freeman(African American guy)

Cillian Murphy (Irish White guy)

Gary Oldman (British White guy)

Matthew Modine (American white guy)

Eric Roberts (American white guy)

Maggie Gyllenhaal (American White girl)

The fact is that Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman and Micheal Caine are the best actors of our time.
It just happens that 3 out of 4 are British and White.
Heath Ledger stole the show in his portrayal of The Joker.
What a waste of talent. Drugs are bad.
