News Nerd ^ | 5-12-2014

As polarizing of a figure that Zimmerman is, the film is sure to spark controversy among movie goers. In a statement sent to reporters, Smith stated, “It’s obvious that he’s not America’s sweetheart right now but his story is intriguing and it needs to be heard. Hitler wasn’t popular. Does that mean his story is any less interesting? Of course not. Slave masters aren’t popular but 12 Years a Slave was phenomenal. Wait until you

The movie will cast the part of Zimmerman with the least Hispanic actor they can find. Probably be one who can do a convincing skinhead.

About $300 million or so.

I would agree that his father would be smarter to encourage his son to develop his own talents instead of continually opening doors for him.

He’s got to open a few for himself if he’s going to get anywhere.

The real life story does not really have the narrative structure Hollywood requires.

They may have to end it with Zimmerman being arrested over his ex-wife's complaints in order to get Smith what he wants.

I watched him and his daddy in After Earth (only because it was free). Talk about a no-talent nimrod. He has about as much presence as a fence post. His daddy bought him a starring role and he was able to do nothing with it - literally.

Jaden Smith ? He’s too short and petite (not to mention too fair-skinned) to play the hulking Saint Skittles.

That’s probably why, for a Hollywood kid, he hasn’t had more success.

That and he's comically bad.

Smith is playing his “folk” like a Stradivarius. He knows that a black victimhood flick will attract the maximum number of freeloading maggots. Afterall, they MUST be victims, otherwise they’d have to assume responsibility for their lives.

Maybe they can use John Travolta as Zimmerman and he can reprise his Battlefield Earth role, since they're all Scientologists!

True, but that may not be his genre. If I were a Hollywood producer, I’d probably tell him that he needs to find himself to see how he fits in before trying for more parts.

It’s probably in part because his parents are really messing with his head.

Perfectly cast there. I wonder if she will use the line, “That’s retarded sir....”

They won’t let go of this! It’s a perfect opportunity for them to “prove” that we are all evil and racist.
