If Albert were Asian...


My friends were discussing the racial aspects of "Hitch" (Alex is black, Sara is Latina, one of Alex's white clients targeted an Asian woman). They mentioned an intriguing idea: If Albert were Asian, the film would have been criticized. Although it would be praised as depicting an Asian "getting a non-Asian girl", it would send the message that he only succeeded because he got professional dating help.

Wtf? Who even thinks of this? Like what is even the point of this posts? Somehow race is brought into everything even when it doesn't have to be. Wow.

If Albert were Asian, it would have been Rush Hour 4: Dating Hour.



Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

If Albert were Asian the movie would have bombed. Lol

If Albert were Asian, he wouldn't have been played by Kevin James, and let's face it, this movie would suck without Kevin James as Albert! Honestly though, really stupid thing to even bring up!!!

Airman, Doctor, Genie, Nanny, President, Professor, Peter Pan...You will be missed Robin Williams!!!
