I just laugh and marvel at Black people who naively think that the Europeans or Arabs or Most non-white people have stopped being racist just because we are in the 21st century. The reality is that racism is institutionalised and thus hidden from view of the general public hence people think there is no more racism. One of the foundations of European wealth and power is active but hidden racism . . .hence only a naive person would for once think racism can be stopped without having to do something the is bound to hurt the feelings of Racist people in general. Below is the Image showing how racist the World still. CHECK THE PICTURES AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK IS DIFFERENT IN THE PICTURES.  Check out the excuse giving: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/15/couples-retreat-poster-in_n_358276.html The studio said it regretted causing offence and has abandoned plans to use the revised poster in other countries, A Universal spokesman said the revised advert aimed 'to simplify the poster to actors who are most recognisable in international markets'.

It goes both ways. Blacks are not innocent either. |

they're just trying to provoke people. like anyone cares an unknown black man was edited from the cover? Would they have the guts or foolishness to remove a photo of denzel, will smith or halle berry?  someone in their studio is trying to incite nonsense over an unknown and possibly lack luster movie, thats all. plus boost their ratings. |

tpia.: I agree |

tpia.:I think you hit the nail on the head. I smell a ratings stunt . . . |
| Re: Racism In Movie Studios by No2Atheism(m): 7:32pm On Nov 17, 2009 |
JeSoul: tpia.: Off course they dare not touch the popular ones . . like denzel and co . . .its usually the small fish. . . that gets pounded and over looked. The ratings angle is also quite logical . . .it sounds twisted but its quite plausible that they are actually trying to boost the ratings of the film by deceptively touching on racial sensitivities. |

Not sure this was a stunt. Could backfire too easy. But anything's possible with these studios. |
