I'm one of the few people who enjoyed Black Annie. I loved Cameron Diaz version of "Little Girls."

How ironic that after years of whites stealing black culture now blacks are stealing white culture.

Didn't we go down a similar road 30 years ago with [italic]Oliver and Company[/italic]?

Just because Ice Tea Cube is playing Fagin, I didn't see that it was a black version. Might it be colorblind? Fagin could just as well be black -- although he was written as a Jewish caricature -- and his gang could be a mix of all races. And Nancy and Sykes could be white.

Blame Mr. Mouse; he's black too, you know. And let's be honest; there's good people on both sides of this phenomenon. Both sides. Mr. Trollbechov, tear down this bridge!

I thought this will be black. Just because Ice Cube is the producer doesn't mean it's an all black production. Danny Strong is white. It will be a colorblind production like Thor Ragnork.

So Disney can't deal with [italic]Song of the South[/italic] but still doesn't mind depicting blacks as thieves and gangsters.

This should go over well.
