Oh yeah, I can't believe I forgot about the biggest cases of white nerds being fine with a race change in films....
Batman Begins and The Dark Knight Rises.
Ra's Al Ghul isn't white in the comics and neither is Bane. White fanboy's sure as hell defended those changes..

Word? What race is Bane?

Bane is supposed to be Hispanic. I know his pops is supposedly British but his mom is from the Caribbean.
The Nolan films are the ONLY version of Bane where that isn't acknowledge. They did it in all of his animated appearances and that was even the case in the Batman and Robin movie.
Ra's Al Ghul is supposed to be Arab.
Lol CACs. White people are always playing non white roles. I hope Jordan gets it. He'd kill this role
Thanks for pointing this out. And yea, lets not pretend that the 1 to 2 billion that the avengers made globally came largely from "comic book fans". lol yea right (unless ur being very loose with the term), I'd bet most of those muthafukkas who watched didn't even know fury used to look like david hasselhoff or knew anything in depth past what they saw in cartoons, video games, toys or the lunch boxes they use to take to school. No different than how some people were lookin at ryan reynolds some years ago like "cool green lantern!.. but aint he supposed to be black tho?
" bcuz of the justice league cartoon.The general audience at large don't know (or really care) about no damn specifics.. they're just in it for the concept and the special effects.
That's why audiences in unison got hyped when they name dropped "Robin" in TDKR but many might've been like
if the director had used 'Richard' or 'Grayson' for that spot.Its also why the actual comics always bend over in favor of the movies/cartoons by throwin "continuity" to the bushes and whoring out characters like wolverine on every cover and in every storyline. Or doing shyt like deading spider-man's marriage or introducing david hasselhoff's bald headed, one-eyed biracial b*stard child.
its about attracting the general audience and tryin to milk as much profit out of them when lightning does strike, and sometimes they can get real shameless with shyt lol

Who was losing sleep over white men playing villains? You wanted to see an Arab terrorizing and bombing an American city?I know everyone wants to make white people mad but you guys arent thinking about the implications of changing a comic book character's race. Most of them operation under white privilege. Johnny Storm is a walking timebomb stunnin 24/7. Turn him into Black man and you have dangerous Negro walking away in NYC. Unless he's getting stopped at every light, it'd be less believable than a flaming (
)flying mans. Then there's issue of what happens to Black people when they only fukk with Whites all their lives. They only way to avoid shyt like this would be to ignore said Negro's race....This was done to one famous Negro, his name was Uncle Tom

You are right. But I think there is only a select few comic characters who should not be messed with....we all know who those characters are....I disagree with you overall, but this is a valid point
He won't get the role
