Just write more good minority characters tho, that makes the most sense overall. As long as they're well-written and integrated well, why would I give a shit? I want them to be good characters and not diversity ploys. Diversity ploys can often end up seeming more racist, like they just chucked them in because they had to, not because they thought it'd work well with the story or universe

And hey I agree and I'd *love* that courtesy to be extended to others. But nope, most of the time it's silly shit like "you don't want 4 chicks as ghostbusters? It's not because you just loved the originals, you're a misogynistic piece of dog shit".
Well yeah I hated that argument too, and Cyril Figgis or w/e his ****ing name clearly used that as a way to block criticism from his dumb reboot

Lol dude, I know this isn't next example exactly writing another minority character character, but this doesn't work. People whined over the casting in Aladdin. Was it that some white dude was cast as Aladdin?

Psshh, f*ck your logic lol. They created a brand new character who happened to be white.

Did you want to set them on fire, or shall I? I'm talking like super hot, 3,000 plus degrees fire.

Start from the feet up, I want the suffering to last.

The black woman in the new Ghostbusters for example is a horrible racist caricature who isn't even vaguely integrated into the rest of the film

But she's a strong independent black woman.

i wouldnt have minded if they gave her a scientific background instead of being a goddamn mass transit employee.

I’m sleepy 💤

I heard she's the best character who stays closest to the original.

Exactly what I told you lol: brand new character, happened to be white, added. Shitheads whined.

Oh, what is that you ask? Did anyone whine about how Aladdin was originally like Chinese and the actor playing him isn't? Lol, oh Scribble, thinking people are consistent.

the movie suffered and flopped because it wasn't funny. not because they were women and certainly not because of all the alt-bronies downvoting videos online and getting mad.

Well yeah, but dipshit feminists wanted to believe it flopped because misogyny.

Just like how Amy Schumers comedy special wasn't a pile of steamy shit, it was the "alt right" harassing her.

The good news for SJW's is they can blame any failure on oppression, racism, or sexism. Just spin that whiny wheel and go with whatever it lands on.

I don't think people are consistent, people are ****ing morons all day every day more or less

It's honestly just an insult to minority characters, even if not an insult to minority casting because Leslie Jones clearly enjoyed the experience

The thing you guys don't seem to realise is that you all just take a side and laugh at the other side for being wrong

Ignore one side's faults but attack the same things on the other side

You don't know how similar you are, honestly

Yeah she did drugs

I knew she would

Each side has similarities, but it wasn't right wingers getting triggered over banana peels in tree's or whining that planet of the apes was copying blacks because the apes had the same blue vests they wore in the god damn original lol.
