Catching Fire, indeed: Racist Hunger Games Fans Respond to possible Finnick Odair casting.
I'm not sure if he's signed the papers just yet, but Jesse Williams being cast as Finnick Odair in the next Hunger Games movie, Catching Fire, is bringing out all the KKK chirren.
Central casting has taken wallops from both sides over their various ethnic interpretations of characters from Suzanne Collins' YA dystopian trilogy as they're being converted to the big screen (note: very, very successfully). To be fair, this is complicated particularly because the futuristic setting suggests that the general population is mixed-race; many characters are described as having "dusky" or "olive" skin, and we've even published a comprehensive character-by-character racial breakdown to clear up the confusion.
( Look at these assholes here.Collapse )
I cannot(but really can) believe the lengths people are willing to go to in showing how much of a fucking asshole they really are. Goodness. Was it like this for HP and Twilight?
