    Seems like they made her an executive producer just to appease people complaining she isn’t playing Moana…

    My take from this is that they want real representation. The rock is the same color as his character and this young lady is not. It’s giving more opportunities to darker Pacific Islanders. Colorism is really and I respect her for acknowledging and trying to do her part as an ep to give space. Tbh I wish more actors were so selfless.

      Colorism works both ways. I'm super offended every time someone says I don't look like "a real Puerto Rican" because I look white. Have we reached the point in cancel culture that people are even afraid to be themselves? This is deeply depressing news. I hope she wasn't bullied out of this role and that this was a decision she made alone without the influence of others. I can't help but picture the seen where she sings "I am Moana!" at the tip of the boat but now someone goes "nah your not dark enough" cut scene and movie over.

      @@lill.2795 well because people these days are so shallow that if a character despite being played by an actor who is actually of that culture dares to have a lighter skin tone they are horrible people and should be bullied. I mean they even do that with voice actors now because I guess the amount of melanin you have will just come out in your voice. Representation really doesn’t matter as much as people say it does. It only matters to people with extremely low self-esteem, need consist validation, and who ironically push ideals shared by Jim Crow.

      @@keithkoganeislife3144 we have to understand that being a part of a culture doesn't mean you won't be excluded from colorism from the same culture,many cultures follow colorist ideas and preferences like using whitening creams and bleaching their skin in order to follow a beauty standard created by someone else,in order to defeat colorism we have to address it and put more dark skin people in media of said culture

      @@lill.2795 you know a lot of people who use whitening cream or bleaching products use them mostly for skin issues, such as dark circles, evening out skin tones, or even medical issues like dark spots. And every time a lighter skinned person who comes from the same background as the character they are playing, people bully them and say that they don’t belong in such a role. But if it happens the other way around, then it’s celebrated like with Cleopatra, Anne Boleyn, Joan of Arc, etc. All who are White/light skinned but whose actors are Black. So by your logic they do shouldn’t be playing those roles since they don’t match the same colour as the actual people they are portraying.

    I felt the same way. I spoke to another UA-camr and we feel that Johnson was butthurt that Black Adam bombed and he wanted a win, so he is going for a Disney live acting movie. Those films printed money. To me they can age up the character a bit. Come on, if she was asked she would do it in a heartbeat. Anyone would. And yes this whole thing is about Johnson. He is likable and charismatic, but he has an ego and is a control freak. I never even saw the animated Moana, and I doubt I will give this a see. Nothing against it, it just didn't capture my attention.

    Dove Cameron as Elsa
    Laura Harrier as Tiana
    Amanda Seyfried as Rapunzel
    Sadie Sink as Princess Merida

    Yeah thats odd halle bailey is 23 she filmed at 21 and 22 im surprised they're not letting her play moana 😭 She looks very young still! Unless they're not planing on starting on this movie for 4 years or something but even so... You're right why does the Rock get special treatment in a way hes definitely on the older sides 😂 Well I know its because hes a more established actor but still i was really looking forward to her playing the role. But also someone knew would be fine too... I'm sure she'll help pick someone great!

    You could be disappointed but saying that The Rock doesn’t look like the character hahaha he’s totally inspired on him, just throw hair on Dwaine and that’s it, hahaha she was just the voice, she a whiter older version of the character, let’s look for the girl who covers the truly ethnicity, you are just mad like always

    • @GraemeONeil
      @GraemeONeil  Рік тому

      Yup, I'm aware that Maui was inspired by Dwayne, but to actually look like him, Dwayne is going to have to gain probably about 75 pounds and lose all of his cut muscle. So for you, to "truly" play Moana, the person's place of birth and ethnicity should not be factors. It should purely be based on skin tone. Thank goodness you're not in charge. And I did 5 segments yesterday, and this is the only one where I was critical of the situation. You keep coming for me, and keep failing spectacularly.

      Your comment is offensive. You can say matches Moana in color but not say she doesn't look like a pacific islander. Your stereotyping, and I say that as a Puerto Rican who looks white as hell so I speak from experience. Don't tell someone they aren't what they actually are because the picture you have in your head doesn't match what your eyes see.
