In the original novel, wasn't the Phantom from Persia?

He technically owned all the rights but didn't seem to want anything to do with the idea I think it might be because he has kids and well, you know http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/features/slender-man-trial-trying-these-girls-as-adults-is-absurd-w431464

Didn't know he was so jaundiced and zombie-ish in the original novel. I think of Phantom and I imagine Lon Cheney or the Andrew Lloyd Weber version.

Also Dracula is literally about a Slavic gently caress Machine who comes to the land of white people to gain power by defiling their women, so that's a pretty separate bag of horror tropes from slendermans whole deal of being the symbols of civilization separated from personality.

Lobok posted:Foiled by Blacula yet again! Actually funny you say that, I just went to a performance of Phantom of the Opera a few weeks ago with a Black Phantom since, well, there is nothing about the character mandating his whiteness. I will also say, the play takes on a very different subtext in that context where an escaped black slave runs around killing people by lynching them during operas about African conquerors and cuckoldry.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Trying to reconnect after a messy divorce, film producer Tom Burnett calls in every favor in Hollywood in an attempt to make one of his estranged son's drawings a cinematic classic. I would watch this movie. Tom Burnett is played by Viggo Mortensen, his infant son by Jeffery Dean Morgan.

Lifetime is making a movie about the Flint water crisis starring Cher. And, no, they haven't fixed the water yet. I'm sure they'll get right on it. http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/cher-lifetime-flint-water-crisis-movie-1201953775/

I'm not sure if they've even started working on it, but even if they have it's a process that will take years.

Man, even on a hand-drawn poster, Harrison Ford looks like he doesn't want to be there.

Lobok posted:Assuming Christine was white, it also gives a bit of a different flavour to the Angel of Music teaching and him stealing her away. Everybody else was white in the production. The other great part is where he still wore the white plaster mask so its a perfectly reasonable interpretation his skin disfigurement is his black skin itself. It makes the ending where he gets gunned down by the cops while not resisting arrest even more troubling.
