As soon as I read one of those articles in the last few days. I instantly remembered this one from all the way back in 2015:
https://www.colorlines.com/articles/michelle-rodriguez-defends-her-stop-stealing-white-peoples-superheroes-comment
Actress Michelle Rodriguez broke a lot of people’s hearts when she shot down rumors of a starring role in the “Green Lantern” franchise. In response to a TMZ reporter’s question about diversity in Hollywood, Rodriguez said: “That’s the dumbest thing I ever heard, I think it’s so stupid because of this whole minorities in Hollywood thing. It’s so stupid. Stop stealing all the white people’s superheroes. Make up your own. What’s up with that?”
Over the weekend Rodriguez clarified her comments. “I stuck my foot in my mouth once again,” she laughed at the camera. “Instead of trying to turn a girl character into a guy, or instead of trying to turn a white character into a black character of Latin character, I think that people should stop being lazy and people should actually make an effort in Hollywood to develop their own mythology.”
You make a lot of excellent points. Although... slightly disagree about you listing Chadwick Boseman. That talented man had great range. We not got enough of him. Very depressed he isn't with us anymore to see more of his incredible talent on film.
Can't think of any current gen actor/actresses with such distinct voices. I suppose Kevin Hart or Scarlett Johansson. Maybe. Awkwafina... Haha.
Absolutely. That track is THAT good. So good!
Yes. Hans Zimmer's badass music. What up!✌🍻
Well, that is most definitely your opinion. Good for you. 👍
Anyway. Quite a good movie. Andy Garcia... haha
Love the Paramount intro transition into the opening. So freaking cool.
Maybe. But he is an excellent voice actor for his animation roles and video game roles... 🍻
Totally disagree. He did a great job in the role. One of the best movies of that year.
Most definitely. 😳👏
That is the correct term, it is soccer. Most of the world know it. For example, that awesome comedy movie Shaolin Soccer. Or... Soccer Aid. I so appreciate your optimism. ☺👏👍
