Snow White (Live-Action)

[UmbrellaFish]

PatchofBlue, I agree with you.

That Lele person in the Wish movie page: Spaniards are white

Lele in the Snow White Live Action page: Rachel Zegler (half colombian of full spaniard ancestry and half polish) is brown

Decide what spaniards are, or maybe admit that spaniard is not a racial group

What? when did anyone say anything like that?

The user Lele said in the Wish thread that Spaniards are white (all of them as a whole) but calls Rachel Zegler non-white non-european when she's fully European (half polish half Spaniard)

I knew she's half Polish, but I thought she was of Colombian descent.

Meanwhile, out of curiosity, today I checked her Twitter profile, and saw her vids where she sings various songs. She's very talented, she could have had a marvellous career. But she had to be an annoying activist.

I also checked a video from Mike Zeroh, and there are reports that as soon as the SAG strike ends, Zegler plans to address the backlash on a late-night show. Basically, she plans to tell people to get on with the times, and just accept the fact that some things have to change. Well, if that is true, she will be facing even more backlash, in my opinion, because instead of accepting that she's wrong and everything she said so far has been nothing but c**p, she gets even more entitled.

This Mike Zeroh guy sounds like a complete hack. When the strike ends, she’ll go on talk shows to promote the movie and she’ll use Disney’s approved talking points. Actors don’t make their own decisions as to how to market a multi-million dollar movie.

Zegler’s an easy target for hate because she has theatre kid energy, but the backlash is starting to get as obnoxious as Disney’s PR talking points themselves.

I think the face sculpt is very pretty. The fabric looks very bulky… is that because this is a prototype, or maybe her outfit transforms into another?

Their best bet would be to just peddle out some non-committal mish-mash about "taking everything we love about the beloved Disney classic but adding an 'exciting modern twist'™" while tip-toeing around the edgier comments that are already stuck on the record. This film was obviously not built in mind for people who love the animated film, but at this point it's just going to be all about salvaging from the wreckage.

They aren't doing a modern twist, they are trying to make it a "better" fairy tale.

Normally, I would agree. But I’m 99.9% sure that Disney did not instruct her to say that the Prince was a stalker (Weird…weird) or to criticize the Disneyland ride or to say that she was scared of the original. What she needs to do is to try to apologize for being so clueless. She should definitely apologize to Gina Carano and J. K. Rowling for offending them online. Then and only then, she can say "I wish the world would be kinder." Which for me translates to "I wish I can be entitled and say stupid things without facing any consequences."

They aren't doing a modern twist, they are trying to make it a "better" fairy tale.

Exactly, and they're doing it for "modern audiences".

Let's be honest. The people who wants to see these movies and buy the products are people who grew up with the original one. If this people are not happy about the adaptation and the characters they are not going to buy anything or even watch the movie.
People want to see an accurate adaptation of the original one. They have made lots of changes in this movie that were not necessary at all. There are thousands of Snow White adaptations to see. The public want the original one not another movie where Snow White takes a sword and fights.

[UmbrellaFish]

Oof. Would not be concerned about the feelings of people like Gina Carano and JK Rowling.

[Sotiris]

Vlad was simply pointing out the hypocrisy of her claiming she wants the world to be kinder when she herself contributed to hatred towards others. Whether the people she attacked deserved it or not is subjective and irrelevant.

[Patricier21]

Oof. Would not be concerned about the feelings of people like Gina Carano and JK Rowling.

Even if you don’t care for what she’s done, what she’s done more of doesn’t deserve to suffer, and that includes people like us fans, let alone the fact that it also is partially why my favourite movie franchise is being discontinued, and along with the rest of the franchise, rebooted

Just imagine how you would feel, let alone the fact that you and others stealing and doing things like this only proves you’re no better than her and that she is more of a reason to be stating and doing what she’s doing. Though of course, As evidenced by this very discussion overall, people will never ever admit whenever they are wrong, Especially when it is actually true, like an overall is with peoples reactions towards JK

Oof. Would not be concerned about the feelings of people like Gina Carano and JK Rowling.

Even regardless of what you think about her, what she’s overall done, including those involved like us fans, have suffered a great deal more My favourite movie franchise is discontinued, partially because of all of this, let alone it in the rest of the Wizarding World franchise being rebooted Just think about how you would feel! Even if you think and react differently what do you think I would do, it doesn’t matter.It’s still the overall principle and feelings of this kind of thing.

Let alone the fact that you and others thinking and acting like this towards her let alone the entire Harry Potter franchise as a whole Only further to prove why she does what she does and justifiably so. Of course as evidenced on this very discussion here, People will never ever admit whenever they are wrong, especially when it is actually true like how you are again treating and reacting towards her and all those involved

Sorry for the double post, please keep my first one but you can delete the second one! After I wrote the first one, it said I was permanently banned from the forum?

You're not. It's just a forum glitch we're dealing with.

[UmbrellaFish]

Yeah tbh, I care more about my trans friends than JK Rowling and asking Rachel Zegler to apologize to her is ridiculous.

[Pokenonbinary]

I knew she's half Polish, but I thought she was of Colombian descent.

She's half colombian, but her colombian side is spaniard, the same someone can be canadian of full french ancestry

So she's fully european, people don't know that Latin America is exactly the same as Anglo America (USA and Canada)

I have removed posts that violated forum rules. A reminder to everyone to always treat each other with kindness and respect, stay on topic and avoid engaging in socio-political debates. Let's move on now and get back to discussing the topic at hand.
