This thread is disgusting, even though some instances of color blind casting baffle me.
I saw a Korean boy when I was in London. It did bother me to an extent, though he was undeniably talented. It had nothing to do with his race, just how blind casting really can go... it seems a bit of a stretch sometimes. Hope I don't offend anyone by saying that...
However, to say, "are we down south now?"... DISGUSTING.

it is almost impossible for a topic like this NOT to get posted or bumped only hours since created. It is a cycle
messed up topic= arguing msgs.= tries to stop msgs.= even more messages to come.
It has a method to its madness

"Then why bother responding? People are complaining that this thread is here, yet they keep bumping it up. Why? You don't want to hear my answer to that."
You could say the same for yourself - it's a cycle. Geez. I posted in here because I wanted to say what I thought, and I hope the OP reads it.

This person is obviously just saying these things to rile you up. It's blatantly fake.
Still not funny, but quite fake.

i read the others thread and happily i'm not the only who who thinks this type of ethnic casting is weird and makes no senses. so let me ask my question again. "When do the white Billys play?"
OMG ALL THE BILLY'S ARE WHITE!!! Why does it matter?
Also, I don't like your avatar.
