The eye irritation will only be late, but never less
In the past, “Disney products are all high-quality goods” is the consensus of movie fans.
But since the popular movie was officially announced two years ago, people have no longer admired or marveled at Disney. On the contrary, some of them are just spicy eyes—
“The Little Mermaid’s live-action movie is finalized”
In just over a day, when it came to September 12, it had accumulated a lot of reading.
In addition to the classics of the original animation itself, the reason why it has attracted attention is that the heroine is cast as Halle Bailey.

Halle Bailey is a famous black singer, and her appearance is indeed very similar to a fish.
Does Halle Bailey look good?
I believe that 8 out of 10 people will unanimously deny it.
And the remaining two people are just out of respect for others, so they gave a criticism of “You look good, but Ariel really doesn’t suit you”.
In fact, we can really feel the charm of Halle Bailey from some photos of Halle Bailey attending high-end banquets?

But once we return to daily life, or look at it from another angle, we will see the more mediocre side (or really ugly) of this Hollywood woman.
It can be said that the live-action version of “The Little Mermaid” has become a target of political correctness for European and American films since the casting was confirmed in the middle of 19 years.
Halle Bailey has also been teased by countless netizens with various fancy remarks. Such as black catfish, scavengers and so on.
On the day of September 11, I saw God’s comment in the comment area: “Are you sure to exchange your legs for your voice? Not your skin color?”.
Anyone who has read the original knows that in order to get close to the human prince, Princess Ariel exchanged human legs with the witch with her beautiful voice.
Since then Ariel has been involved in an adventure full of conspiracy and love.
But ridicule is ridicule, these are just emotional vents made because the fans can’t get a response to criticism.
That is to say, the stronger the public opinion feedback, the more it represents that Disney has promoted the process of hot eyes to a new height.
Such as rejecting all opinions and using black female protagonists, even when the epidemic is affected, they insisted on carrying out methodical filming work on European islands, and now the official announcement is made in May 2023.
Up to now, we can only sigh: Spicy eyes will only be late, but never less!
Movie screens under different values
The casting of Ariel in “The Little Mermaid” is indeed eye-catching, but this film is only a sign of the collective slide of American film and television works towards political correctness.
It can even be said that since then, film and television creators have finally dared to let go of their arms and saw a series of jaw-dropping things.
For example, the Marvel Universe official announced that the next Iron Man will be held by Ironheart.
And this person is the black girl in the original work, and in reality, the black actor Dominique Thorne is also used as the role.
Not only that, at an earlier time, Marvel even officially announced the launch of a new comic plan for LGBT Captain America, and the intention of this move is even more obvious.
As for Marvel’s rival DC, they arranged a movie project for Black Superman.
Although the official announcement is currently developing a new story in a parallel universe, this idea must be to flatter the black community.
There are also candidates for the new Snow White.
On June 23, the cast of the new Disney princess was also identified as Rachel Zegler.
Although she is not strictly considered black, her dark skin is often ridiculed by fans as another interpretation of political correctness.
But what is even more outrageous is Sony.
When the casting of the live-action version of “Cinderella” was announced not long ago, Camila Cabello, who was also dark-skinned, appeared as Cinderella.
This has naturally attracted a lot of criticism, but the biggest point about this new work of “Cinderella” has to be the godmother.
In the original animation, she, who was amiable, was replaced by a black actor.
When this guy showed his face, he really scared the audience in front of the screen.
It can be seen that “The Little Mermaid” is only the beginning of the fall of Hollywood movies, or even a turning point.
If this movie can still get a lot of box office results after it is released, it will naturally allow more Western film and television companies to get together into the category of political correctness.
Since then, the studio has brought us the image of black people on the screen, and it is not impossible to even make all the members of the Avengers black.
Furthermore, the big Hollywood screen is no longer a pure art creation palace.
The so-called art has long since become a vassal of politics, or a tool for businessmen to accumulate money.
What should I do?
To be honest, as long as most American audiences continue to favor this aesthetic, there will be no change.
The only thing other fans can do is to vent their anger on the Internet with the keyboard.
