Uh...hate to break the news to the folks in Hollywood, but the Smith in the TV show Wild Wild West was a friggin' CRACKER!

Why does color matter?
When I look at Will Smith, I don't see an African-American. I see a generally good actor who I find to be funny at times. Pretty sad commentary that some people can't see past skin color in the 21st century.
Would it make a difference if they picked someone who was Jewish or a Muslim in a remake of a role that a Christian actor played at some point? Or male vs. female such as Starbuck now being played by a woman instead of a man? I must have missed your post where you stated how upset you were that Colonel Tighe was being played by a Caucasian instead of an African-American.

agreed. wild west was such a silly movie, it wouldnt make more 'sense' to have a white lead. my vote for last years worst movie -Borat. im really over that sort of humour...
edit: what am i saying? snakes on a plane is far worse (was that last year?)

is that mercan dollars? thats pricey! i think normally its about $12.50 australian full price here. there is a big cinema nearby that got smart. they charge only $7.90 (was only about $6.80 a year ago). they realised its better to steal business from others at slashed prices since the only extra cost to them whether there is 10 people in the cinema or 100 is a bit more airconditioning. ive been to quite a few sessions where an usher has had to get everyone to stand up and move towards the centre because the show was sold out!
of course if everone starts charging that low then they will all start to lose money again...

We've have a 17-screen Cinemark theater near my house in the Dallas suburbs that's a little past its prime (AKA no stadium seating). I can watch a regular price movie for $4.75 or a matine for $2.75. I go there to watch the movies I don't expect will be any good.
If I expect I'll want to really be comfortable or it's going to be a great movie where I want DLP or something, I'll go to the new Cinemark 10 minutes down the road and pay something on the order of $8.50.
