Just looking for an opinion...They're re-making Annie for the big screen.. But the entire cast is...African American. I am not racist by any measure but the very idea of this is rather offensive. Liberties being taken are all well and good but let us be honest. Annie is a frigging ginger and Daddy Warbucks is a greasy looking old white guy. Jamie Foxx as Daddy Warbucks? I am really struggling with this

Mustapha I had HUGE issues with Depp as Tonto for that very reason. Now imagine if they made Tonto a Mexican guy instead of a native...this is where I am at. you cannot change basic characters. Take the cast fo gone with the wind. Now make them say...Punjabi. You just cannot do it. Why can we now not have a white Shaft? How about a Jewish one? Imagine the frigging outcry over "creative license" for changing a character who is written as a specific look gender and ethnicity
