Scarlet Witch wasn't originally Romani.... she was originally still Jewish. You know, since she was Magneto's daughter. The Romani thing came later. So that's kind of a mischaracterization. The Johnny Depp as native american was super wierd, like the black face RDJ in Tropic Thunder. It was cringe @.@.
I don't know how people got that take from Tropic Thunder when they explicitly make reference inside the movie to how messed up and wrong it was. Like, that was the joke. RDJ was playing a character so full of himself that took method acting to it's extreme. Am I missing something? Id love to be educated
No, you're right. RDJ's role on that movie was a joke/commentary about both method acting and black face.
No, you're not, people are taking good intentions too far like usual. The entire joke of that character was that he crossed the line
Did you actually see Tropic Thunder? It's pretty good. His character is meant to be looked down on and the movie makes that clear. It's more of a criticism of actors doing things like black face and playing disabled characters to chase awards.
I did! I will admit I don't remember as much of it as I should have as I was not paying full attention at the time. Might give it a more genuine watch again sometime.
Every aspect of Tropic Thunder was absolutely hilarious and if you found that movie offensive or cringe then clearly the jokes of that movie flew wayyyyy the fuck over your head.
She could still be both from each parent's side?
That would make her... Jewmani? Rowish?
Never play Jewmani, you can get sucked into the game and it’s like WWII or smth
BTW I checked Wikipedia and it's hilarious how often her ancestry changed
Fucking comics smh
It does seem that she usually has 1 parent who is Romani since 1979 though.
Wouldn't her being Jewish depend more on her mother?
No wonder they changed her to Romani, they got tired of all the questions from The Tribe asking for her mother's geneology to prove she was Jewish.
Probably so.
You had a point then you said something incredibly stupid, so now I disagree with your existence.
