At least the first X-men movie was smart enough to keep Wolverine/Jean/Cyclops in. |

I think you misunderstood TBP; I don't think he said anything about a true romance- the fact that Marlon Wayans is Ripcord is telling, as Hollywood is notoriously pussified about interracial romance in huge blockbusters.

So basically if we don't approve of this interracial romance we are racist? Marlon Wayans is no Sydney Poitier. One thing I would like to educate you on though Bug-Eyed Early, since I know something about Hollywood Blockbusters, is that you are more likely to see an interracial romance in a blockbuster over a same racial one especially if it involves a big star. Remember that movie HITCH? The reason it was Eva Mendes and Will Smith instead of Smith and another black actress is because the studio thought it would be too black if Smith dated another black woman in it. Apparently Will Smith dating a black woman would've been too "black" for a romantic comedy. Remember the comic book movie SPAWN? Well in the comics we had Terry, black best friend marrying Wanda, a black woman. Go to the movie and it's Terry, now a white guy played by DB Sweeney married to a black Wanda. Why? Studio, Todd McFarlane all approved because if Terry had been a black guy in the movie, the movie would've just been too BLACK for mainstream audiences. Yup. So basically, whatever reason it's crap either way. There is no Ripcord/Scarlett. Or Marlon Wayans/Scarlett. It's Scarlett/Snake Eyes, that's it. Last edited by TheVileOne; 02-10-2008 at 05:02 AM.. |

I will say that my assumption about him fighting anything about the script was presumptuous of me Also with the writter's strike looking like it's coming to an end, who knows what the script could turn out to be like now |

Why wouldn't they want him to do his job they're paying him for?
We don't know what kind of capacity or power Hama has as a consultant. It also could just be a way to legitimize the project to the fans. Quote:
