I have commented on this time and time again. When blacks make a blatant all black movie they are doing it for their people. When a white man makes a blatant all white movie it is racist.

Riddle me this... Black actors have taken some of the greatest sitcoms or movies in American history and changed all the characters black. Two movies right off hand are, The Honeymooners and Guess Who.

Me personally, I didn't find anything offensive about that, I found Guess Who pretty funny. BUT... What I DO find offensive is this: what do you think would happen if a bunch of white actors got together and decided to make all white versions of say Good Times, Sanford and Son, or The Jeffersons?

I think we all know.
