Can u believe this crap?
This just came off the yahoo newsfeed. What they were talking about was some movie posters and 2 black actors in there were included in the US movie poster, but were not included in the posters in Uk.
"While Love and Hawk aren’t generally as well known as the film’s other six stars, it’s still a questionable motive. As noted in a 2007 New York Times article, American films with black stars typically struggle in the overseas market. According to the article, Will Smith, the undisputed king of the American box office, ranks no better than twelfth when it comes to ticket sales internationally. Simply put, said industry watcher James Ulmer, "The international marketplace is still fairly racist." "
The international marketplace is fairly racist? Are you kidding me? In my opinion Will Smith is a pretty good actor, I loved "I am legend" and the superhero movie he was is in, but he is nowhere close to my favorite movie stars. And just because some people prefer different movies than his, does not PROVE that they are racist! I’m about to throw up from all this political correctnes… this is bloody ridiculous…
Have you people forgotten what the whole civil rigths movement was about? A colorblind society. We are supposed to give everyone a fair chance, and not treat any one group better than others. What’s happening is just because one group or another is doing a bit worse, we have to give them a push just to even the playing field. It’s ridiculous.
Please tell me if you think I’m wrong and why, and don’t just say "Shut up you damn honky" or "You didn’t go through what I went through" cause this has nothing to do with that.
Thank you!
