Unrelated, just wondering: do you use the term "reverse racism" regularly?

No.. pretty much never.. this has nothing to do with race.. you're bringing something you read in a book to real life and you want to make it look as accurate to the source material as possible.. I'm not so much mad as her being black as its inaccurate to the source.. it's as if you gave spiderman a pink costume with purple polka dots

Whoever created the Mary Jane Watson character had a specific look thought out for her

Speechless

Elaborate

If it makes you guys happy I just saw a pic of her with her hair dyed bright red n now I'm warming up to the casting a little bit

Yeah, saying "Hey, this black woman can be in a movie as long as her hair looks like a white person's" makes everything better.

Like I said, it's not about losing a white character to a black character.. it's about inaccuracy to the source material.. I'd think it was just as dumb if they cast a white guy to play robbie robertson

Mary Jane Watsons trademark look is her long red hair.. casting a non ginger mjw is like casting a Marilyn Monroe without blonde hair or a beauty mark

I don't know why I'm even complaining, it's not like any of the spiderman movies stayed true to the source material anyway

I just remembered aunt may is hot as fuck

yeah that still creeps me out

My two kids watch all the tween shows on Nick and Disney so I'm familiar with the actress. Kinda boring.

I love you, man.

There really aren't many characters whose ethnicity is central to the character. A white Black Panther would obviously not make sense. You wouldn't want an Asian guy being the king of a ancient African nation. Bruce Wayne's family history of blue blood wealth and privilege going back to the founding of Gotham would make it difficult for him to not be white. Mary Jane being black really doesn't seem like a big deal. MJ is basically a hot chick that the nerd got. She's Penny on Big Bang. Color doesn't matter.

They cast a white chick to play the ancient one on doctor strange which makes no sense

Kirsten Dunst wasn't a redhead, was she?
