Okay but is no one gonna talk about how Spy Kids is in the same universe as the Expendables???

Why?

Because it’s the ultimate movie crossover we need, but not the one we deserve.

But no really it is.

In Spy Kids, Machete is their Uncle and makes all the spy gear. Machete is also in the movie of the same name AND the Expendables 3. And it’s not a different character with the same actor it’s straight up Machete. Meaning Spy Kids exists in the same universe as the fucking Expendables.

And people say infinity war is the most ambitious crossover

STOP HAVING WHITE VOICE ACTORS PLAYING NON-WHITE ROLES

stop depriving non-white actors opportunities to act and get recognized!

Voice actors often don’t know who they’re reading for or what franchise they’re in (that’s what the strike was recently about, so they’d know whether they were in a small first time game or the 4th installment of a major franchise, if they were replacing a beloved voice actor, etc.) so please don’t harass the actors, until recently they legally didn’t have the right to know who they were reading for and were usually not told until months or even years later. 

Definitely go after casting, directors, and studios executives. Those are the people making the decisions. 

Example of a VA not knowing (and getting screwed on top of it).

They still don’t have the right to know. They got fucking nothing out of that strike. They can know the code name (which might be a serial number or whatever) and if it’s a sequel. That’s it. That’s the extent of the “transparency” they won from the strike.

As a perfect example of this controversy, if you haven’t looked up interviews surrounding Laura Bailey as Nadine Ross, it’s worth it.

Laura Bailey herself explained that when she auditioned for the role, she was given no information about what the character looked like. It was only after she was hired and arrived for recording that she was shown concept art and discovered the character was a WOC. She was uncomfortable about the situation.

Meanwhile, Neil Druckmann revealed that they were already working on concept art of the character when they hired Laura Bailey. They finalized the character’s design as a WOC after they’d hired a white voice actress, so that was a conscious decision. He was also very flippant about the situation as a whole.

Like people above have said: Yes, whitewashed casting is a legitimate and real issue. But unlike actors in film and stage, voice actors are often totally blind to what they’re auditioning for. They get fucked by NDAs and legal red tape bullshit. Go after the casting directors and execs and high-position game devs that knowingly make these decisions. 

Got after the developers and casting directors. Not the actors.

This is a crime, a sin, like how dare the state bust this kid for that. Let this kid go, freelancing is valid. “Dangerously potent”… because the kids is black the pot gets weaponized. This state is a disgrace.

It really does baffle me how they always aim for non white weed users cause the white man uses prisons as an excuse to practice modern slavery while white weed users get to walk free 🤷🏽‍♀️
