Because money nikka:russ:

Quality or not people come out for them X-Men movies

You expect 150+ mil movie to just sit on the shelf?


Disney somehow made 48 trillion dollars last year

:Jbaby:



They paid 52 billion because they wanted to buy fox's share of Hulu to get them to 60% and also get the rights to the xmen back.

$150 mill is pocket change to the creators of :duck:


If anyone can flush $150 million down the toilet it's Disney. And honestly that's the money fox spent to make the movie, it didn't actually come out of Disney's pockets.

So when whites do the same thing regarding what characters were in the comics you have no problem then right?
I'm thinking you gravely misread.

Storm in the comic was a darker skinned woman. Fans want something "historically accurate." Which makes sense. It's what they read in the comic, what they got used to.

You're thinking I'm saying I agree, for a example, when a studio decides to place a white actor as a historically black character? That's not even a fraction of the point I tried to make so argue with someone else.

I don't really get why some biracial (half black) people get mad at black people for not including/accepting them, but they never get mad at their other side for not including/accepting them.

Cause we suppose to accept everything with nothing in return. Other groups come to us black folks on some dominate bullshyt but when we do the same thing everyone wanna call foul

Storm has clear dark skined with a shell and some white hair dye.

Don't know what to tell the biracial chick. That's the character nikkas fell in love with.

the belly of the empire
Storm African and Black Panther and the whole Wakanda is in Africa in theory but most of the roles aren't being played by Africans, yet people complained about breh who is 100% Black from Get Out not being AA.
.

Danai, Lupita, and Kaluuya are all African and play MAJOR roles.

The overall main cast make up is:

3 Africans. 2 Caribbeans. And four AAs.

Honestly not bad. A decade ago there'd be no Africans in the cast.
