people only say this shit cause he only wants to make black movies. That's fine.

If a white person doesn't want to tell black stories, that's fine.

Play that out for us. A white director stating he doesn't want to tell black stories. Say Christopher Nolan says " I have no plans to cast a black actor as the lead in any of my films". How would that go?

Wes Anderson said that exact thing and he is still making movies.

Wes Anderson said that exact thing and he is still making movies.

Really? Wes Anderson has said something almost identical to "I have no plans to cast a black actor as the lead in any of my films"? When? You have a citation for that? Even if he did, the difference between how Anderson is treated vs. Peele is really what's at issue. It won't take long for you to find numerous Reddit threads discussing whether Wes Anderson is a racist. You'll also find numerous articles by the typical racebaiting culprits at Slate, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, etc. Whoopi Goldberg made an issue of Anderson's lack of "diversity" in his casts years ago. Peele doesn't get the same treatment, and he was far more overt in stating his disinterest in casting white people as leads in his films.

[–] ChipDouglas (1607) 2 years ago

Hey you're right! I don't have a citation for it. My bad. I just checked with my friend who had told me and turns out she couldn't find where she had heard it. Probably a case of selective/faulty memory. Thanks for making me double check my work there. Now I know he hasn't said anything like that.

I think one of my favourite filmmakers, Tim Burton, was called up on saying something 'similar'. He didn't actually say "I have no plans to cast Black actors in my movies," but he was berated for defending his tendency to predominantly cast white people (i.e. his 'aesthetic'), but I think he's since responded to that. With Dumbo, he cast a biracial actress as one of Colin Farrell's kids (and originally wanted Will Smith to play that part, although he was turned down), and is now producing "Wednesday" with a Latina in the lead role.

[–] ChipDouglas (1607) 2 years ago

I think Peele said that black actors are not typically chosen for horror movies because they are difficult to light against dark backgrounds. I could see why this would be the case, but props to him for going outside of the box. I think the choice to cast predominantly black actors in his movies has worked aesthetically and is a fresh look. One example is when you can only see white eyes and an outline of a face. That wouldn't be an option you would have with a white actor.

Good for him for developing a new look in horror movies. I don't think as an artist he shouldn't put himself into a box saying he will ONLY do it that way, but that's his choice. He's a smart dude and I'm sure we'll see more cool ideas from him in the future.

Jordan Peele states in the article below that he will not cast white leads in his films. He also said in another article that he would be disappointed if blacks were not the first people to see his films. I would consider those attitudes to be racist towards white people. I found the Get Out film to be quite racist in its portrayal of white people and the so-called white sympathizers.

He may not be a total racist since his mom is Jewish and he's married to a Jewish lady. I would argue that his film casting attitude is racist since he is discriminating against white actors. He's also discriminating against viewers by prioritizing the black press and black audiences.

YOU ARE A SIMPLETON...IT'S EASY TO UNDERSTAND HOW YOU ARE SO IGNORANT AND WRONG HEADED.

[–] HarveyManFredSin (4877) 2 years ago

I don't have a problem with him prioritising Black leads. It's not as if there are NO white people in his films. And I think he's simply saying that he wants to make up for the absence of Black people in other (white-directed) genre films.

But what does he mean when you say he's disappointed if Black people were not the first to see his films?

If he simply means that he hopes Black audiences are the most excited to see his films, I get that, but as someone who saw and enjoyed Nope last year, I hope he's not saying that he doesn't want white people to enjoy his films, or that he wouldn't gladly take white support for his films were it not forthcoming from all Black people.

We all have different tastes and interests, and not all of them align perfectly with our race.

Yet if you flipped the races you'd be waving your arms around and having a fit about white supremacy.

No, why would I?

Am I having a fit about all the hundreds of other films featuring *white* casts?

reply

[–] maul (1635) 2 years ago

If someone specifically came out and said "I'm only casting white leads", and would be disappointed if white people weren't the first to see their films, there would be an entirely different reaction. Quit playing here.

Yawn. We already went through this with Spike Lee. Why do white conservatives feel threatened by black filmmakers? It's not like there are many of them

reply

[–] HarveyManFredSin (4877) 2 years ago

I love Jordan Peele films, just as I've always loved Spike Lee films. They mostly hit the mark for me. But I do wonder whether it's the films or their success as filmmakers that particularly bothers white conservatives (from my POV, there is little to nothing to be especially offended by in any of Peele or Lee's movies), or some of the statements they've made in interviews, which may, rightly or wrongly, have been interpreted as more hostile to some white people.

It's the rhetoric that goes along with it. You know that what he said was racist - he got away with it. Worse yet, Oscars Academy award now has imposed a DEI quota in order for films to be considered for the award. Peele was an early hint of the things to come. Racism against white people (and straight people) has become institutionalized - in America, no less.
Think about the current state of the world (in the west, at least) - racism is being fought with another form of racism, discrimination is being fought with another form of discrimination, war is peace - slavery is freedom.

😂 Yes! That is spot on! I love it!

Complete hypocrites. It must really be a sad life to focus solely on the color of one’s skin every single moment of every single day like so many people do in today’s world.

It’s mainly liberals. Their whole existence seems to be based on skin color and what genitalia is in your pants. They can take a conversation about the weather and somehow turn it into a rambling incoherent lecture on how racist everybody is.

Just scrolling through topics like this on this site…it’s just sad how race obsessed everyone continues to be.

Well, best of luck to all of them.
