Only 6 characters and they managed to check every diversity box


It is like a by the numbers diversity film. Strong women, check; interracial couple, check, asian, black, latino, check; Awkward and weak white male, check.

It is ridiculous at this point.

So what? You don't have to see the movie if you don't like the cast.

reply

That Hollywood is more concerned with filling diversity quotas than talent and quality.

If I see or don't see it is besides the point.

reply

Just because the cast is diverse doesn't mean that they don't have talent or that the film won't be good quality. Maybe these actors were cast because they were considered to be the best available for the roles. You can have diversity and quality. One doesn't cancel out the other.

reply

There is a difference between a movie that just happens to be diverse in its cast vs one that is purposely made so in order to fill diversity quotas. This forced diversity is rampant in Hollywood these days to the point that even potential best picture nominees must fulfill diversity quotas if they are to be eligible for nomination at the Oscars.

If you don't have a problem with that it is fine but to feign ignorance and pretend it isn't happening is disingenuous.

Yeah, I think that's it. You can like it or not, but to deny it happens is just burying your head in the sand.

That only happened in your shizo magamind. Take your pills and shut up.

I can't believe there are people who are still denying that this type of stuff happens.

Someone could burn their house down right in front of them and if the media told them it wasn't burning, they would believe them.

Stalin would be and must be (from wherever he went after he died) very proud.

Well handled

"Maybe these actors were cast because they were considered to be the best available for the roles."

The thing is Hollywierd has made no secret of the fact that they deliberately push diversity casting. Hell even award shows have silly quota rules in place now that prioritize diversity over talent. It's why i stopped watching them. Elsofoquereturns isn't bashing the movie he or she is just pointing it out. It's wokes that tend to get triggered when people do that.

They also managed to get little people representation. Both Spaeny and Merced are 4ft11.

Sometimes good things come in little packages!

Disabled? Trans?

reply

I doubt they meant to trigger you, you did that yourself!

reply

The only ones that get triggered are the woke ideologues when people notice and point out what they are doing with their DEI push. Can’t even stand up for their own ideas and have to gaslight and be disingenuous.

reply

um no they dgaf , it was you who stated the the thread saying , and I'm paraphrasing here , "Theres are non whites on the screen I'm all triggered!"

reply

Nailed it.

reply

Let's not be hasty. You didn't mention trans, queer, pan or handicapped.

Wait till the reshoots after the test screenings!

reply

And one of them is shown sucking a facehugger's dong, so that's another box checked.

reply

You only get 10 seconds in to the latest trailer and...interracial couple!

Hollywood couldn't be more blatant if they tried.
