Snow White is supposed to be WHITE


very white, hence the name, this girl is latin

reply

She's called Snow White because her skin is as white as snow.

The original fairytale.

At the beginning of the story, a queen sits sewing at an open window during a winter snowfall when she pricks her finger with her needle, causing three drops of red blood to drip onto the freshly fallen white snow on the black windowsill. Then she says to herself, "How I wish that I had a daughter that had skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood and hair as black as ebony." Some time later, the queen dies giving birth to a baby daughter who she names Snow White.


How can a brown woman be called 'Snow White'?

reply

she had an affair with th postman and the father wasnt show she'd hoped so she named her snow White anyway and hoped her husband wouldnt notice ?

My wife is a big Snow White fan. She has been making the same points. Rachel Zegler has a dark complexion. It's going to take a very heavy makeup job to pale her down.

reply

They are not going to pale her down.

reply

I think they made a point of using her because she was not white, so I don't think they are not going to cover that up.

look folks the racist

Not a single racist thing in what I wrote.

Look folks, the resident woke troll.

It's fiction.

reply

In the fiction she was white. This bears the same title and pretends to be the same fiction. So it's theft at best.

reply

Even if it's fiction It's moronic to have a dark character called "Snow White" and have that name based on her skin color. Unless that character snorts some powder ...

And you are a moron if you don't understand it ...

reply

So is Black Panther. Now there is no excuse not to cast Matthew McCaugnahey as Black Panther.

reply

Race is essential to that character, though. He's a leader of the African nation of Wakanda.

reply

Isn’t race essential to a character is skin is described as white as snow?

reply

It's fiction, so anything is possible. They can always make some revisions to the dialogue and the character's history.

Yep just like a white man being the leader of the fictional African nation of Wakanda.

Which white actor do you think would make the best Black Panther? Ryan Gosling is a popular choice!

reply

So since it is fiction can’t they make some revisions to Black Panther’s character history?

It’s not like there have never been white leaders of African nations before. However there has never been a browned skinned girl whose skin was as white as snow.

reply

There is no African nation of Wakanda, idiot. So the fictional population of a fictional African nation can be also blue skinned.

reply

As long as the entire story is fiction whats the point of changing it and still call it "Snow White"...

The worst part of Disney's woke catastrophe is what they did to the dwarfs 🤣

reply

Musk may buy disney

our savior shall make it so

reply

Didn't there used to be a football player named Reggie White who was black? Much darker than this actress.

reply

Not to mention she was supposed to be pretty. Rachel Zegler's face is visibly deformed and her facial expressions betray neurological issues.

reply

rachel is pretty wtf are you on

reply

I'm surprised they didn't go all the way and cast a black dude for the role.

Not woke enough, will not watch 😠

reply

if all you fookin outraged white suprmeciosts are soooo fukin obsessd with whiteness ..

why are white people always trying to get a suntan?

reply

You imbecile, why are you morons so obsessed with replacing white characters and culture?

Make your own stories you imbecile.

I bet that NO "white supremacist" complained when Moana was not white.

But you retards complain EVERY TIME a white character is in a movie. "Where is muh representushun?"

reply

It is a form of colonization that they are doing co-opting already established cultural icons and replacing their white characters for the sake of "diversity". It is about taking over/appropriating things. has nothing to do with "representation".

reply

I know but they would never admit to that ...

reply

Just don't support (give money) to such projects or the usual streaming services.

reply

I’m a minority and I hate this race swapping crap as well. Leave the characters I grew up with alone.

reply

Times change and get with the times and adapt and evolve what mad a Hispanic/Latino actress got the role she deserved guess you want all Latino actors to lose roles man you sicken me you racist fuck and Fuck your wall also Tenoch Huerta Namor was much better than his Marvel comics version gave MesoAmerican Civilization the spotlight as well him being a Deity Ku'kuklan.

reply

[deleted]

Huerta got caught grabbing a Mexican feminist and another instagram influencer by the pussy, though, it just might be that's the last we get to see of him anyway.


which has been proven false by him and reps that so called feminst wanted money

reply

I’m actually Latino myself. And fuck this “times change” bullcrap excuse. Ok let’s race swap black panther then since “times change”.

Go make your movies instead of ruining mine.

reply

It's called accuracy in casting. It's like casting a red haired freckled white girl as Pocahontas. It will bomb because no one will want to endure the entire movie having to maintain a suspension of disbelief.
