Well they made Capt. James West black. I've never watched that version. So why not make little orphan Annie black? I won't watch this either. Probably bomb.

I'm still waiting for the remake of Shaka Zulu cast with a big white guy.

I suppose they plan to replace FDR with our homosexual Muslim commander-in-chief.

Nick Fury, director of SHIELD, was white in the comics.

As long as Col. Allen West is playing ‘daddy warbucks’ I have no problem with it

I saw the previews. It looks cute but they may have spoiled it trying to be too trendy.

Can you say “Bomb.”

It’s almost like casting a hippie to play Hitler.

The remake of Wild Wild West was a complete BOMB.

“I’m not a racist, but...”

Annie is a well-established character, and, she is “white”.

I can’t wait for the movie where, Obama is played by a white actor. A republican white actor, that is.

I’m more pissed off that the’ve taken the legacy of ‘Orphan Annie’ and slowly translated it from an anti-new deal anti socialist pop culture phenomen into a Dem loving prObama love fear against the “1%”.

Anyone who doesn’t give this glowing reviews as even better than the original is racist. Anyone who doesn’t go see it is racist. Anyone who wonders why film makers have been replacing white characters with non-white ones is racist. Anyone who thinks I’m being sarcastic is racist.

I too am waiting for Shaka Zulu played by a big white guy. And I wonder what that makes me.

I have seen the previews for this and it looks pretty atrocious. It bears not even the slightest resemblance to the original comic strip or storyline.
It looks like an updated rap storyline.
I will not be going to this looks too ridiculous.

I predict in our lifetime they will remake “The Godfather” with an all-black cast.
