Ryan Gosling is my favorite lesbian.
Christian Bale would probably pull it off tbh

The main thing I took away from the Panderverse= Disney should create new diverse characters. Moana was good, Coco was good, Encanto was good. Do more of that and less making old movies with slight changes and
Yes - its a no brainer lol. Coco, Encanto, & Moana are all great movies and those characters are well liked. Idk why they dont just keep going with that formula, its working efficiently

Agreed. The problem with the Little Mermaid remake wasn't that Ariel was black. It is that it was a bad movie. They remade a movie that didnt need to be remade in order to cash in on people's nostalgia.
It isn't as if they remade the movie as-is but made Ariel white that it would have been a blockbuster

They’re remaking those old movies to retain the IPs. It’s purely a business decision.

There's some fantastical mythology to play with if they did an Inuit/Eskimo movie, plus you get to use husky's, wolves, foxes and polar bears, which are all marketable animals that people love.

So basically Hillary Clinton
Im a democrat and I just snorted irl 😂
As we all know, Nelson Mandela was a fictional character.
Actually sounds kinda lame the more I think about it.
These are historical figures, not fictional characters, though.
Was Cleopatra fictional?
No, and that's an example of a character being recast as black that everybody pushed back against. What a perfect example to explain the difference!

I don't understand why people can't see the difference between making Nick Fury black and making Nelson Mendela white. Are people really this stupid?
Yes
People see their comic book characters with more importance than they see Mandela
Sometimes you have to really reach to manufacture rage
Yes. They all missed the point of this episode
Pretty sure they've race swapped some historical figures as well, not just marvel characters.
The conservative brain is incapable of comprehending nuance
Cleopetra? Anyone?
They made Anne Boleyn black. Thats just like making Nelson Mandela white.
Race swapping a white historical figure is the same as making a political prisoner and champion of black rights in apartheid South Africa a white person? You don't seem to get it either. Yes making any historical figure race swapped is bad (hello, white Jesus), but this is still just as ignorant as the meme.

Jesus Christ did you guys not watch the special or something? Ripping on woke culture is just as lazy as woke culture.

Notice that most of these examples of race-swapping a black character to white are based on real people, not fictional characters. Which is something they always complain about whenever a black actor plays a white character. This is comparing apples to oranges.
The state of this sub for the past couple of weeks is exactly why I don't advertise that I'm a South Park fan. Great show, exhausting fans.

I bet Hopkins would be a great Mandela.
Where were all these historical accuracy champions during the past 2000 years of white Jesus?
South park should just stop completely. It's embarrassing itself now.
Ryan Gosling got typecast
It’s great the person putting the meme together couldn’t think of a sixth black person and had to use Obama twice.
because then Pedro Pascal would play every male lead
The little mermaid
No shit, i would pay money to watch Anthony Hopkins as Nelson Mandela... Bet he could win an oscar too.
I get the joke. But where are these posters from? I assume they are AI recreations of real movie posters. The Mohammed Ali and Nelson Mandela movies are the only ones I reconize
None of these are characters though. They’re movies based on real people. Quite a bit different from having a black Superman lol
“I don’t see the difference between fictional characters and historical figures.” - people who believe in magical sky daddies and conspiracy theories.
Russell Crowe could’ve been a great Ali but Mark Wahlberg is a funnier choice
What's the female equivalent of Paul rudd? That would be the pick
Now yall reposting shit from one of the most racist motherfuckers on Twitter. I'm done with this sub
i would legit pay money to see Christian Bale as Barack Obama in a movie.
Conservatives now have a second joke and it’s as bad as the last one.

Get fucked with that „End Wokeness“ shit account.
This is such a dumb tweet lol
Obama is half White half Black tho, right? So this is the same as getting a full Black guy to play him.
Obama smoked weed growing up, and now look where he is today Unemployed with two kids and recently evicted
