No black people in Atlantis...
There were no black entrepreneurs in Atlantis.
shareIs that surprising?....the film was made by uber right wing racists.
shareThat's not fair, fdog9. It could be as simple as black people being smart enough to not be cast in this film. It's hard enough for black actors to get good roles in Hollywood. I can't imagine many of them would want this film on their resume.

That's a BS reason @gabby_bm, African-American actors have played questionable AmericanNazi loving blacks before. Sometimes, they weren't even the bad guys.
There were no African-American actors in this because they weren't asked, and they weren't asked because the makers are racists. Very few ReichWingers are not racist.

I find automatically jumping into the accusation of racism to be lazy thinking. Did they not hold ANY auditions? Did they simply cast some of their biggest donors in the roles of the Atlantis occupants? If they were truly racist they likely would not have cast a black actor in the fairly prominent role of Eddie Willers.

I find that it's usually the real racists who run around accusing others of such... share
I can't imagine anyone would want this film on their resume.....most people would want good films on their resume.
shareWell, most people don't want McDonald's on their resume either but sometimes a person's gotta take what they can get! (not quite sure which would impress a potential employer more)

Not that surprising when you consider the racial makeup of the rich in reality... But we do live in a time where facts are racist according to professional victims.

I have to wonder how many of these billionaires created their status and how many of them simply inherited it.
I donโt need you to tell me how good my coffee is.๎. ๎๎ฌ

Most of the top ten were self made. The Walton's obviously inherited.
It's a common myth propogated by the lazy and envious-- but if you read The Millionaire Next Door you will learn that most millionaires/billionaires today did not inherit their wealth.
Sam Walton was born to poor farmers in Oklahoma for example.
