Should Charlize Theron play Storm?

[Project Initiative Cascada]

Theron has way more in common with Storm than Halle Berry does. I think everyone should watch Mad Max Fury Road and consider that Theron would be an excellent Storm, Jean or Emma.

Welcome to the 21st Century: Where no one is allowed to have a sense of humor about ANYTHING EVER because god forbid someone find it offensive.

God forbid someone find a racist topic offensive right?

Theron is clearly a better actress than Berry. So, yes, she would do a much better job as Storm than Halle Berry.

Well, the casting director could always have Charlize Theron appear in "black face". Surely, no one would be offended by that...

Hale Berry is perfect for Storm. She is strong, confident, she has drive and might be a tad "crazy" because that's what it takes to make it in this world. I just read about her taking her ex to court for treating her daughter's hair. Blame it on the writers and director if you think movie Storm was terrible. No amount of acting was going to save the role she's been given.

There again, Reed Richards was supposed to be a 30+ year old and the guy playing him is looks about 17!

They messed up the whole dynamics so it fits the Hollywood mold everyone's seen 1000 times already. Reed was confident and Sue was in love with him from the start. He's going to be that nervous nerd who might not get the girl. It's weird how consumers are eating up more cheap cliches than people did 50 years ago.

So you're saying you actually took the OP SERIOUSLY?

I'd love to see your reaction to Blazin' Saddles.

How is the topic racist? Whether Op is trolling matters little. The question is simple, if we can have a black Human Torch, then we can have a White Storm. I don't see the issue.

I'm aware the op is trolling. Doesn't make it any less racist.

Black women are already poorly represented in Hollywood, so changing the race of one of the few black women in comics to white is offensive.

So then changing the Human Torch to a black man should be offensive to white people?

White people aren't allowed to be offended, you know that.

It shouldn't because white men are always represented.

I don't even know...

Hmm... A black man engulfed in flames amidst a small group of whites? Now, where have I seen that image before?

[Arya]

So then changing the Human Torch to a black man should be offensive to white people?

They were offended have you not seen Facebook and forums everywhere?
