Still boycotting part II

[narkoleptik]

So I know I've been posting a lot, but I just have the rageeeeeeee.

I've been (re)reading more articles and blogs and such, and there's a lot of people who see nothing wrong with the casting.  in fact, from Derek Kirk Kim's old blog post:

"You do realize that the characters in Avatar aren't necessarily Asian, right? They just live in a world

It angers me as well... and I never even watched the show (until more recently, but I haven't in a while, to be honest)
Also... what is that writing on the screen? Bottom right? Not Asian?

I am boycotting also!

Yes! Thank you so much! Honestly I barely watched the show as well. A few episodes here and there but that's about it.

I want this movie to crash and burn like the golden compass movie so the proposed trilogy will never be made.

The people who try and act like its "not racism" don't know what the hell racism is. Seriously, there's no denying it.

Btw. I have a theory that the europeans (BBC made merlin) are just so much more awesome than their north american counterparts.

[narkoleptik]

SERIOUSLY. That's exactly what I was thinking actually.

Maybe the British, but I'm not sure about all of Europe in terms of race. Everything else: (i.e. nudity, sex, same-sex marriage) YES.

You said it better than I could :)
