That's not my Ariel!!! Asia rejects the Little Mermaid at the box office

Opinion: I hated ‘The Little Mermaid’ | CNN

Disney’s had decades to think about how to update ‘The Little Mermaid’ for new generations of viewers. Which makes the dour, overlong, dimly-lit and still pretty sexist product they’ve just released completely baffling, writes Sara Stewart.

Movie made Ariel black but kept Eric white.

They should have made him Asian or something and just mixed everything up. Make Eric's mom white and the dad Black etc. Go full multicultural.

Problem with American movies is that they go Political Multicultural. So....that means white men with every race of women. Sometimes it's Black women with different races of non-white men....but Black men are invisible unless there's a Black female lead or the breh is a eunuch being friend zoned by Becky while she waits on Brad.

Breh

Eric’s “mother” here is a BLACK WOMAN


Her former husband was a white man and now she’s with an INDIAN MAN.

What do you mean by less tolerance?

 

[Fani Willis fan]

Hollywood went TOO FAR with this movie.

There is a black bedwench Queen who has a WHITE “son” who is the prince. Her NEW partner is also an ASIAN Man.

You then have a White Male Sea King who has 2 black daughters and a bunch of other non white daughters.

Then of course the Black daughter gets with the WHITE PRINCE.

ALL the black men were either SERVANTS, MERCHANTS or FISHERMAN

This wasn’t no damn “movie” this was a FULL ON ASSAULT on the black family unit and black men via media PROPAGANDA.

Get mad people in Asia don't watch the Little Mermaid, brehs

Black panther did very well in Asia.

If anything, just goes to show even ppl in different continents have adaption/reboot/prequel/sequel fatigue

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse thread​

The Sony Producer/Amy Pascal says the move is a love story between Miles and Gwen.

The co-director added more details that it's a love triangle between Miles, Gwen, and

Spoiler

Spider-Punk (black British Spider-man) aka Daniel Kaluuya's character

That said, I don't think it's any coincidence that they downplay/omit this in the trailers, or strategically cast a black Jessica Drew (Spider-Woman / Issa Raye).

Like what some of yall mentioned, not a peep when it comes to Ariel but with Miles the marketing gotta let it be known this is not a black-woman hating movie nor is the plot about plowing a becky at the end

Spoiler

(that's just the subplot )

Like @O.Red told yall, we ain't walking on no egg shells. See yall at the theaters

which is laughable because her character will most likely be happily Boo'd Up with a white Spider-Man with Miles and Gwen ultimately ending( tragically)


that's why i got to side-eye the little mermaid having no visible black male imagery you no for a fact if they casted a live action black Disney prince in a interracial romance they would also cast a black women as queen even if they had to make up a character just for the movie giving the black prince a sassy little know it all princes sister (shuri reference) they would do it just to give black female's positive/strong imagery




Disney would never try and sale a movie to black family's with no black female imagery but it's perfectly find to sale a movie to black family's with no black male imagery with no backlash from the usual she butter twitter clowns




protect your neck black men muthafukka's ain't for you like you think

Really?

This film will get plenty of streams this Memorial Day weekend. Big uproar when it was released because even though it depicted Black war heroes, there was not 1 depiction, reference, or even a photo shown of a Black woman in the film.
An inter racial love story was included, though

Little mermaid was maid 1989

The story is old as hell

Without looking it up

Hundreds of years old

Not sure why people are surprised by this. I'd wager that they have less tolerance for this shyt than most.

Expose yourself much

My nieces loved it (3 & 12) ... so few seats left my sister had to take them to the 930pm showing.

I hope the movie continues to do well.
