Is it really a big deal?

It seems that some people are really hating on the movie 21 because the cast was not all Asian. Is this really a problem? Yes, I know that the book, Bringing Down the House, is a true story and is about an ALL ASIAN TEAM. Although the movie is based on the book, did you really expect Hollywood to cast an all asian team? Hollywood is going to put people in the movies that will bring in the money. That’s the way it is. I know it’s messed up, but its always been that way. Do we really need to get all crazy about it and boycott the movie? I watched it. It was pretty entertaining. I don’t know why this issue really bothers me, but I just don’t understand what the big deal is. It’s just a movie (not even an important movie). It’s not going to go down in history on a top 10 must-see movie list or anything. So relax people. 

I think there are more important things to worry about than race of the cast in this movie. Don’t get your panties in a bunch over it. 

P.S. You CANNOT compare this movie to Birth of a Nation. 

I read one comment on the movie saying, “What if The Patriot had an all asian cast? How would you feel then?” Well first of all, aside from the fact that it would be historically inaccurate, 21 and The Patriot are two different movies. VERY DIFFERENT. 

I wasted blog space on this.
