So let's try the same for feudal China in the inevitable Mulan live-action remake.

Show some compassion.
Imagine being a nigger, and having no history. Every historical book you pick up is filled with interesting white people doing wondrous things while your kind sat in mud huts in Africa getting outperformed by lions.

The French had already begun colonizing African by the 18th century so yeah it's not really THAT much of a stretch for them to be there.
>>
>>80601154

Educate yourself you fucking cuck.

France had already multiple colonies in the west indies in the 18th century and already began to colonize Africa.

And they already had made their way up into the aristocracy, as evidenced by the wig.

Right.

She doesn't look fully African, and yes in fact it's true that in French colonial African settlements people of mixed race, called the Metis, were of high social standing. Look up the history of Saint-Louis in Senegal, my little historically ignorant /pol/tard.

I only watched the first two episodes and it was pretty cool, but it really didn't challenge the admittedly racist view I held of Africa before watching it.

right but unless you are specifically making a film about the 0.1 percent black population of france at he time why show them when making a film about a typical french town. theyre just doing it to be obtuse
>>
>>80601472

The cinema versions have always been about the dichotomy of Belle's humdrum, normal world and the Beast's magical mansion. Joseph Campbell's "call to adventure" and all that.

It's a weird, unnecessary distraction showing blacks amongst the peasant folk. They could have had a rapping, ghetto (I mean, "urban") endtable in his mansion, if they wanted to be a little more subtle about shit.

There's a phrase out there about how people will accept the wildest ideas in fiction but trip over the smallest things.

Unless they radically change shit up, people are bound to wonder how that African ended up an aristocrat in France. If the story were about her and her journey, people would buy it.

And they brought that "high social standing" back to France, right? Because the same aristocracy treating their peasants like dirt would be cool with that?

If you're going to go full-SJW, at least acknowledge the colonial aspect, dipshit.

The french consistently showed themselves to be the worst people in history, just keeping up with the theme

I guess racebending Asian characters and denying an Asian actor a role is okay if a token black guy fills it.

That is what Hollywood thinks diversity is. Not having actual black characters in films. Just having some quota of casting black people.
>>
>>80601472
that such a shit argument used al the time. its about historical and cultural continuity. its not about "realism".

when you do things like that you mess with the whole vibe in my opinion. if you make a film about japanes samurai i want to see japanese samurai. if you make a film about italian mobsters i dont want to see some native american walking around little italy. although its entirely possible to see something like that in america it just fucks up the vibe. and cinema is all about vibe.

thats why i would never go and see some peice of trash film like the one about the great wall of china which stars a white saviour lead

>>
>>80601472
not a valid argument, even scifi and fantasy is still based on a reality we understand at it's foundation the other magic elements augment that, the "control" elements of non fiction stories like this ought to be realistic

but naturally i expect nothing less from Disney so whatever let the people have their coons and faggots

Well, whether it's genocide depends entirely on whether it's systematic or just systemic, but the end result is the same either way.

It's a fantasy set in a historical setting. Your argument makes no sense at all.

there are talking dishes in this movie. It's already not realistic.

Who gives a shit about adding a few black people to the cast?
>>
>>80604421
Because you would never get away with it in any other homogenous culture, and the only reason they're included is because of muh white guilt.

Why is diversity in Disney's eyes just "more black people"? Where are the Indians, Asians, Arabs, mestizos, etc.?

>>80604632

I can tell that you haven't actually seen the film.

Every fourth person is Black. It's extremely cringy and transparent.

That was 19th century and Dumas was an octoroon.

Fucking this so goddamn much. They just stick these things in there to appease the masses instead of making an interesting movie about that. And the masses enable this.
>>
>>80605381
>appease the masses

It's too appease the small minority of leftists that will go on Twitter and Facebook afterwards and complain about it.

Disney cares fist andd foremost about money, and therefore wants to make as much as possible with the least amount of controversy they can.

British TV has black actors play roles that are typically white characters. This is the world we live in.

>It's too appease the small minority of leftists that will go on Twitter and Facebook afterwards and complain about it.

Yeah this is what I meant. They don't give a fuck about a good story. How many of them have seen a fucking Spike Lee film? Or read Raisin In The Sun? Fucking virtue signaling pieces of shit.

>>80601154

Gaston was recently in the military, a captain in france. The main character, a french beauty, is played by an ENGLISH WOMAN.

That right there would get everyone hanged if people from the 18th century could get their hands on them.
>>
>>80605866
That's stupid as well, but it isn't done for the sake of political correctness; it's done because it's an english speaking production.

They tend to have east asian background actors as well in some of these movies in Cinderella, but it seems like they tend to have black people more so in those Marvel movies. But maybe it's easier to see when some background actor is black rather than middle eastern, north african, or part native american.

It seems like they've made like a group policy now to have dark skinned people in these princess movies even if it messes with the suspension of disbelief for some stuff or distracts from stuff. They added those dark skinned people in Frozen for that one scene where it looks like it was done late in production because they are dressed the same as everyone else, have very similar facial features, and very similar hair. Some of them look like they are the same cg models as some of the other characters in the scene that have pale skin. They also now have dark skinned people in the Tangled animated show's first episode when there seemed to be none or extremely few in the movie even though the show takes place in the same place and time as the movie.

Interestingly, I don't remember seeing any black people or people who seemed like they probably had ancestors from the Middle East or North Africa in Zakovia in Age of Ultron. They didn't seem to have any people that seemed like they were probably of Central Asian or East Asian ancestry either.

I wonder if it's because it's Marvel and/or because it's supposed to be in Eastern Europe.

What I don't get is why basement dwellers are worried about the plight of background actors. Remember when the ones being triggered were liberals, simpler times. You whiny bitches aren't even trying to be actors and yet you spend hours crying about it.

The instant someone touches French territory, they should be considered to be French.

Emma Watson was born in France.
>>
>>80601154
But there actually were black people in 18th century France. There were very, very few, but they were there. The descendants of slaves in French Caribbean colonies.

>>80606436
Emma Watson was born to two English parents, sounds English, lives in London and NYC, and seems to stick to Anglo culture. I understand what you're saying, that if someone is born in a country they should be considered part of that country by default, but she's clearly rejected French culture. She's not French.
