  • fucking house nigga

  • @chase169 So much thought put into analyzing Hollywood productions. You know movies aren't real and that everyone is pretending, right. If you want heroes that aren't white, there are thousands upon thousands of American movies that depict this. Why can't the hero be of another race or ethnicity......because it's not your money, imagination, and resources that went into this. It was Cameron's production. Your and my opinion of what the movie "should" have depicted is fucking irrelevant.

  • @rudeboyazab You are assuming that all white people act and think alike. How would you like it if I thought all Muslims thought alike?

  • @rudeboyazab why cant people like you just see people for people and stop thinking that one entire race thinks the same way. dickhead.

  • @chase169 so what if the heros white it really makes no difference to the story

  • Avatar is not racist. it is a futuristic version of a King Arthur story. One movie had natives who painted themselves blue. This is part of there culture. These natives actually existed even if Arthur did not. Guess what the natives were. Thats right navi's. Sound Familiar. King arthur helps them and becomes king. also their is a king arthur movie coming out about this. Anybody who wants to avatar appear as racist is racist against white people. trying to find a reason to be mad at white people

  • @rudeboyazab CAN'T WELL JUST GET OVVERR OURSELVES AND SEE THINGS THE WAY THEY REALLY ARE....ALLLLL IS ONNE! WE ARE  ALLL THE SAME STOP THE RETART THINKING ALREADY...BORRRING

  • @Fenrirsdoom RIGH ONNNNN. YOU'RE VERY SMART. THANKS FOR THE COMMENT.

  • @chase169 ok what about the book of eli, I am legend etc full of black hero's people are looking for controversy where there is none just like this woman says

  • @rudeboyazab Seriously mate no white people don't at least not where I'm from and I have lots of experience of two mostly white countries. White people are no worse then any other race on the planet nor are we better. In fact in most instances white people are the tolerant majority as to be named a racist as a white person is a social death therefore everyone is too scared to say anything with any racial tone. To be a racist against whites is much more acceptable and does not carry such a stigma
