Did you even read everything I wrote?
But like I said in my original comment:
[quote]when it comes to directors, straight, able-bodied males are the overwhelming majority of directors out there and Jordan Peele is all three of those. So it's not okay to hire a white male for a role because there are too many of them, but he is completely okay with being a straight, able-bodied male director. [/quote]
He's literally benefitting off of being a straight, able-bodied male director with the only caveat is that he's black all while he's criticizing the same thing but only because white actors are the white version of it.
You said that 95% of starring roles are played by white men. Well, how many directors are able-bodied? I can't think of a single one that's disabled. So seeing how Jordan Peele is an able-bodied director, should he not get an opportunity to direct and give it to someone with a disability? Or course he should, but he's cherry-picking his argument.
It's easy to claim "I have a lack of representation" while not representing others. It's okay to be white and disabled/gay/transgender, but they shouldn't get their opportunities taken away because they're white.
I agree with you guys. I don't think he hates white guys, but he's being far too "woke" (I hate that word) that he's actually being ignorant. Not every white actor is racist and to automatically not include them is no different than a white director always casting white leads.
That's not the point. As I stated above there are different variables. You can be white and disabled, white and gay, white and transgender. Can you imagine if a disabled director says they're only going to cast disabled actors as leads? Sure non-disabled people can cope, but that doesn't change the fact that someone is being ignorant toward a demographic just for being born the way they were.
Her face is awful but she has an incredible rack but that has nothing to do with her as a politician. Something about her seems off to me. It's like everything she says is some kind of pipe dream like "it needs to be done, it will get done, but I don't know how to do it."
It depends what your threshold of pain is.
I also question his statement of "I've seen that movie before" as if white people are making the same movie. I hope he's aware movies with white casts come from different countries. I'm going to wait until he has a few more movies under his belt to see if he casts a Hispanic actor, Asian actor or gay actor to see if he's showing his own bias or not. If his casts are always black, he's not better than white directors who only cast white people.
Yeah. And people will say he said nothing wrong because white people do it all the time. White people do it because of subconscious bias. Unless a white person said that they only wanted to cast white people, they'd have a point, but I don't recall any white director saying that.
That seriously looks like a parody of an actual logo. Like when you do a rough sketch of an existing logo and it looks funny.
True.
Good but overrated. I wouldn't say it was one of the best of the year like some people were saying.
The Artist. I quote that movie all the time when I'm alone.
MovieChat doesn't create pages for people if it doesn't exist on IMDb.
Wild Strawberries.
I hope they do go on the internet. It's going to be hilarious seeing a fake smile on her face.
I wasn't aware the photos actually existed. I thought they had yet to happen.
The interesting thing is that they're actually not deceiving advertisements. It's not like when you click on it you're redirected to a plethora of other advertisements.
I think the evidence was in the emails. It's possible that in the email, Lori Loughlin told the administrators not to bring it up to her daughters. The face that she had to pay for her daughters to get in shows me that they were too stupid to realize what was going on.
I was disappointed by this. I enjoyed Ordet much more.
Beaver? How old are you?
