tanoy - Better question... why are there no real people depicted in this film? Because it's a film... an art form, so they can do as they wish and add only the colors they wish.
Do you call paintings lacking the color black racist, too?
Is it a racist film if only black people are in it and no white people? Is it racist if only Asians are in it, and no other race? Keep going with that...
Is it a racist film if the writers, crew, director, make-up, wardrobe and set designers are of varied races while the story only calls for one race?
Are you getting my point? There is NO ENTITLEMENT for any race to be included in any one piece of creative art. Your perspective reeks of entitlement.
The racist card got used too often and to manipulate unfairly, so now the "charge" of being called, "racist" is watered-down. That is the effect your OP has, IMO. You just gave everyone practice ignoring the word, "racist." Perhaps you should decide what effect you wish you have.
Those of us whom care about equal rights, ethnic diversity and fair practices, would appreciate it if you stopped and had a "think" before you post.
Debate my points. Challenge my perspective. Prove me wrong. Only, do it with a smile.[cooldance]
