Few roles for Hispanics in top Hollywood movies

[TRIPLE M]

but theres successful directors

Guillermo Del Torro
Robert Rodriguez
Alfonso Curron
George Romero
Jorge Padilla
Nimrod Antal


and they all cast latinos in their movies, not always the star but they give work out, and in production
they're doing what they can
Rodriguez has his own network…El Rey ..people need to support it because he's trying to change the landscape:Hulk Hogan You FD Up:


and threres other latino actors who have had starring roles in big movies
Danny Trejo
Beninicio Del Toro
Gael García Bernal

however as a Puerto Rican, with all these movies and tv shows set in new york…how are you not going to at least see a puerto rican cross the street

Does George Lopez count in this? They do have few roles in Hollywood but they can still survive without Hollywood since they got their own stations and cater to their own people.

George counts but he's a comedian first. Not an acclaimed actor. And yes Latinos have their own stations but many Latinos are assimilated into american main stream and those Latinos don't get that shine they may deserve nor do they pander to a Mexican audience.. Not the white ones nor the straight across the border ones.. , the dark American Mexicans whose families have lived in america for multiple generations. People think that all Latinos watch telemundo or Univision. Not true at all.

This is gonna change very soon.

Hispanics have huge spending power and the more they become the majority in many areas, it's a no brainer for Hollywood to make them more prominent.

I could even see Hispanics creating their own Hollywood, and I'm not taking about the Univision stuff. I'm talking an Americanized type of spanish type of programming/movies.

This idiot @Mook talking about no hispanics on tv. No this nikka just dont look out for his own peoples shows, actors and directors. Too busy following blacks around. Its ok we know we got that ultimate swag, I understand, but like I said, we shouldn't have to put yall on, find your own way, and put US on, YOU'RE the largest minority group in the country. I'm tired of other folks piggy backing off us, yet no one does shyt for us.
