Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 673: Accident

   What Charlotte and Addison Yang discussed in a low voice is indeed not the shot just taken.

   In fact, because of Charlotte's participation, the octopus-head captain David Jones' aura increased sharply in the shots, and even the crew of the other "flying Dutchman" crew became ghostly.

   Especially Charlotte's octopus head, he who is proficient in spells directly added magic effects to himself-so, from the camera, Addison Young saw that the tentacles on the octopus head were really weird and terrifying.

  -In short, this shot is perfect, and there is no need to retake it at all.

   Now, what Edison Young is discussing with Charlotte in a whisper, is actually a piece of news he just heard——

   "You said that those local actors in Dominica who participated in our movie are preparing to start a crew protest, protesting that we have corrupted the reputation of the indigenous people of Dominica and turned them into cannibals!?"

   Charlotte looked at Mr. Photographer,

   "Addison, Christmas is coming soon, not April Fools' Day!"

   "I'm not joking with you!"

   Addison Yang was a little frustrated,

   "This is the news I heard when I took a "photograph" of a local girl. It is estimated that they will come to the crew tomorrow to make trouble."

"Yes?"

  Charlotte nodded, but remembered another question——

   "Taking pictures!? Those girls from Dominica!? Your scope is really wide!"

   "Black pearls are also beautiful, okay?"

   Addison Yang pretended to be serious,

   "Charlotte, I think you seem to discriminate against black people—"

   "——No, it's African American!"

   Charlotte, in turn, points the way,

   "This is the correct way to call it!"

   "……"

   Whether it is Addison Young or Charlotte, there is a moment of silence here.

  -yes, this is the fault of American political correctness!

  Hollywood or other industries in the United States, although the issue of political correctness is not successful, it is definitely more than a failure.

   After all, there are too many affirmative organizations in the United States, not to mention that there are still many real or fake human rights fighters.

   In order to avoid being dragged by these sprays and protests, Hollywood movies have paid more and more attention to the "de-discrimination" of various words.

   is like "African American" or "Native American".

  -The former is a "non-discriminatory" term for African Americans, while the latter refers to Indians.

   Because in the eyes of these minority affirmative organizations, these terms are discriminatory.

   After their continuous protests, US official organizations gradually accepted this concept and began to promote it.

   So when Americans speak, they have to be cautious.

  ——Because it is often possible to be accused of "discrimination" because of a certain word...

   Of course, most people are in a better situation-after all, not most people like to correct words-but for industries such as the film and entertainment industry that work for the general public, they have to adapt to this change.

  ——After all, you don’t know who among the people you watch will be bored and start to pick faults.

   But this change of wording has caused much trouble to Hollywood filmmakers——

   First of all, many viewers who do not pay attention to this aspect of the news may not be familiar with such "official words", which directly affects their understanding of the script-which naturally makes the screenwriters very disgusting.

  Secondly, compared with the familiar but "discriminatory" words in the past, the new official words will lack the strength of expression.

  -Simply put, it is boring, which is also a common problem with all official vocabulary.

  -In other words, many official words were invented to avoid excessive "strength".

   But the problem is that, unlike government speeches, many viewers' requirements for movies are one of them to be "energetic."

   Therefore, in the lines of many movies, there are always swear words;

   Therefore, some dirty and violent movies often sell at the box office.

   Just like the easiest way to make money in the world, it's basically written in the "Criminal Law", and audiences tend to like to watch what the government prohibits.

   And Hollywood filmmakers, as commercial animals, naturally will not easily give up the elements that make movies popular because they are politically correct.

   Of course, political correctness still has to be talked about.

   Therefore, after frantically exploring the fringe of political correctness, Hollywood has summed up some methods that can be politically correct and make the film’s language "energetic" at the expense of many movies being protested to death.

  The first one is to include minority characters in the movie, especially black people.

  —No, it’s African American.

  In fact, this is not only to avoid being protested by black movement organizations, but also to say some radical lines.

  Because in the United States, all minority affirmative organizations are typical only for state officials to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light up lights——

   Just like white people say that "niggers" are discrimination, and black people themselves say that "niggers" are intimacy, and even if black people say "white guys" on the other hand, they generally don't call discrimination.

   In fact, even black people who have always claimed to be discriminated against, have the opportunity to discriminate against other people, they will not hesitate.

   Not to mention the whole reverse "black supremacy" that exists in Hollywood, black people also have a lot of discriminatory words against other ethnic groups.

   It's just that crying children have milk to eat, because the black affirmative movement has the longest duration, the most organization, and the greatest strength, so other organizations can't fight them.

   Therefore, if you remove the influence of capital, a more powerful force, in the United States, blacks' speeches are indeed more "free."

   And Hollywood has borrowed this kind of overcorrection brought about by political correctness to fight against the "political correctness" that affects the story's excitement.

   Therefore, since the 1990s, it has been popular in Hollywood movies to use black people to play funny chattering roles.

   This is because this is one of the traditional images of black people ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ everyone is easy to accept. It is also for these black actors to say some lines that may not be so politically correct.

  -Anyway, it is usually black people protesting against others, and rarely when others protest against them.

   However, this method is not always available.

   After all, some movies may not be suitable for black characters, and it is impossible to give all the "energetic" lines to black characters.

   Fortunately, there are always more solutions than problems in this world. Another simple way for Hollywood screenwriters is to ask one character to say politically incorrect lines, and then other characters will correct his words.

  -This means that the not politically correct view is merely the setting of the character itself, and does not represent the point of view of the film producer.

  ——The black pot was successfully thrown out.

   This method was used by Charlotte in the original time-space "Spider-Man: Homecoming"——

   Michael Keaton, who plays the big villain Condor, said in the movie that "Indians" are politically incorrect lines, but then his little brother weakly corrected him.

   Not to mention, in this movie, for the sake of political correctness, even the heroine becomes a black girl...
