Why can’t we have original stories(I.e Sinners, Black Panther, White Lotus) and instead try to make White Snow black or whatever and paint people racist?
I get that people want to make these stories more inclusive but the characters are just too powerful to change them and not expect a backlash.
People prefer new characters or “staying true to the original story/character” instead of lazy remixes.
Or you can create your own remix with AI now. Feed the movie and make the characters as you want. The result may seem a bit weird(i.e like a Snow White being a fat black gay male) for a fan of the movie/character but for you as an activist it will check the marks you are looking for. Just don’t invoke racism if people won’t like your AI slop.
Starfire is an orange alien from Tamarin in the comics and people said she shouldn’t be Black in live action or the green witch in Wicked.
Should Annie also not have been Black in the remake? If we want to stay “true” to the original stories, we have to only have Black characters as freed slaves shucking and jiving singing “zippity do dah”.
