So, is putting a black person in a major motion picture as spiderman not the right thing to do? But you are ok with putting a black man is a small time operation? Hmmm

yeah glad to see someone around here gets it. ✅
and Im not the only one that doesnt like that idea of them making a movie with a black actor as spider-man as the thread starter said the same thing as did Bruce Skywalker.

Why does it matter to you? Spiderman is just a character.
What is it about the fictional society that spiderman lives in that would stop a black man from finding himself in the same situation as a white man? Is the world were spiderman lives a world controlled by white people?
We are not going to change the history of spiderman, but we can retail the story to fit the current world. I don't understand your objection.
Originally posted by Nemesis Xwell if they can change the gender with karate kid i dont see why not race. but spiderman being black thats different. his characer or gender was never changed in the comics. sure there is a spiderwoman but that isnt parker.
First the Karate Kid went black and now Spider-Man went black....facepalm
Originally posted by inimalisti just explained thats not his original character race. answer this if you can. would it make any sense for balrog to be white in the next street fighter film ?
what part of the Spider-Man storyline do you think is specifically "messed" up by Parker being a black person?

it just messes the storyline of the original character.
It doesn't alter the story at all. In order to mess with the storyline you would have to actually mess with the storyline rather than hand the colorist a different pen.
Not to mention that 616 Peter Parker will always be white, no one is proposing to change that.

Balrogs aren't human so I don't think they can be classified as being black or white or asian.
Originally posted by Symmetric Chaosthat doesnt matter. the character's name is balrog and he is a talented and experience boxer and in the video games since day one he was been black. would flip people out in the next street fighter film if he was white dont you think ?

Oh wait, Street Fighter.
Let's see, there are two character's named Balrog in that series. One of them is a direct reference to Mike Tyson (his real name being "M. Bison"😉. The other is a white guy.
The white guy could, of course, be white in a movie. Making a character designed as a shout out to Mike Tyson white would be bizarre, unless Tyson himself were to become white.

Ah so you are referring to the character who was written in order to directly reference Mike Tyson, right down to his name.
Tell me what famous white man is Peter Parker named in honor of and physically modeled after?

I have repeatedly explained in detail why it wouldn't make sense to make M. Bison white, you cannot draw a parallel between the race of those characters. The American Balrog is a reference to a specific black man. On the other hand you have not explained even once why it wouldn't make sense to make Peter Parker black except for the empty statement that it would "mess up the storyline".

and yes i explained why it wouldnt make sense for him to be black because he has always been a white character.
you cant even answer a damn yes or no question
would it make sense for storm to b white in the next x-men film ?
