Wenzel Dashington is yet another example of how people with no intelligence have to result to petty name calling and racism when someone else has a difference of opinion....In this case he just proves his unintellegence because my face has been plastered all over this site numerous times.
A Yo... Wenzel.......

He's right. Cacs like you have no say in who is black. Mongrels like Poitier don't either.
Agreed.
If we gonna be honest with ourselves, is it really any different than Will playing the Nigerian Doctor in Concussion or buddy in The Pursuit Of Happiness?
Lightskin brehs and brehettes playing darker skins people is rediculous in itself to me. The fact they had to cake on makeup for Zoe to even play Nina says enough. It's be the same with a darker skin person playing a lighskin dude. You want my man Michael K Williams from the Wire playing Obama?
I get that she probably thought it was a good movie, script, etc and that Nina would be a good person to portray but if you gotta cake up with makeup to play her, maybe you should have let someone else do it.
One day TheColi will stop confusing light-skinned black people with people who aren't even black.
That day is clearly not today
But to your credit those were bad castings too, for different reasons

ZOE SALDANA: “I AM A BLACK WOMAN”
Posted by Cipriana Quann
09/17
As I was searching for inspirational style pictures on one of my favorite style sites ”Black and Killing it”http://blackandkillingit.com created by Neil Alvin. I came across a small debate that seemed to stir when Neil posted a comment from a reader about a quote that the beautiful, talented and well known actress of Star Trek, Avatar and most recently Colombiana, Zoe Saldana stated. The comment reads as follows:
“When I go to the D.R., the press in Santo Domingo always asks, “¿Qué te consideras, dominicana o americana?” (What do you consider yourself, Dominican or American?) I don’t understand it, and it’s the same people asking the same question. So I say, time and time again, “Yo soy una mujer negra.” (“I am a black woman.”) [They go,] “Oh, no, tú eres trigueñita.” (“Oh no, you are ‘dark skinned’”) I’m like, “No! Let’s get it straight, yo soy una mujer negra.” (“I am a black woman).”
Most of Neil’s readers felt there was no need for a debate and that it was this woman’s prerogative while a few others were a bit peeved that Zoe identified herself as a black woman and thought she should identify herself as mix. Why do you think Zoe’s comments irked some nerves?
Zoe Saldana: “I am a Black Woman”
I thought she always claimed black. My issue she really don't look anything like Nina plus the jury is out on her acting.

and then you had the nerve to ignore me saying that ol boy is unintellegent for calling me a cracker when my face has been plastered all over this site and then u co signed him showing everyone just how unintellegent you are as well.
@Medicate I see you too
Notice I posted a thread where someone who doesnt even like me knows what I look like....But I'll let you tell it.

She claims black when convenient and Latina when convenient and mixed when convenient.
Only in America can half breeds and mongrels dictate who is black or white or anything. I know cacs don't let fukking troglodytes like Poitier tell them anything, but I have to sit here and listen to them debase the black man into nothingness.
"What is black? Everybody is black. Black people can look like anything" fakkits eat a dikk.

Find another reason to hate this bytch.
I'm lighter then Zoe and I sure as hell ain't mixed. We do come in different colours you know
..... did you forget there's pics of you in the women of the coli thread? Why you in here lying?
Me and Tariq Nasheed would disagree with you and I'll just leave it at that.
I'm looking at you funny because we both agree that Zoe playing the role is no big deal but the fact that you keep defending IronMan wearing Blackface makes me look at u funny. If u are white then I understand because white people usually dont see the disrespect in such an action when its covered in something such as comedy....But if you are a Black person then

Because she's not a box office name?Zoe, despite not being the lead, has been in three box office smashes (Guardians of the Galaxy, Avatar and Star Trek). Yes, there's better actresses (I've literally heard every dark skinned actress you could think of in the past two days) that could've played the role but I'm doubtful any of them have a internationally known name like Zoe's.
Mary J Blige was originally offered the role before Zoe accepted, even though she said she wasn't right for the role. The director got her power taken away from her by the studio and is now in a lawsuit with them. ANNNND this is going to be in theatres and available on VOD on the same day, which means it isn't a wide release movie.
This is entire movie has been a disaster. Nina in theatres April 22nd.
If they picked Zoe mostly because she's a box office name, it was a BIG backfire with all this controversy and negative press... It would've been smarter to go with a lesser known actress and make a better movie... Even tho this movie has been done since like 2012, pre-Lupita, Uzo, Viola, and Danai becoming very well-known
Hindsight is 20/20... They should've shelved the project.
