Perfect Faberge Killing Machine

I’d really like to see those buckets, for I suspect thou dost protest too much.

And in terms of presentation, is there anything about Perry White or Johnny Storm that makes it impossible for those characters to have been black? I don’t think so. Of all of the problems one could have with MAN OF STEEL, I don’t think the casting of Perry White would or should even make the top 50. 

But you feel the way you feel. So if you don’t want to watch those movies, or read those comics, or whatever, that’s totally up to you.

Saying “it’s about the authenticity of the characters” and citing the 1930s is only a hair’s breadth away from telling me that it was wonderful when all of those black folks lived somewhere else where you didn’t need to see them all the time–separate but “equal”.

It’s not the 1930s, or the 1960s anymore. The world has changed, time has marched on, deal with it.
