PJ steering away from racism

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>It's really nearly impossible to 'steer away from racisim'. (Estel)<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>In today's society, it most definitely is. Though it seems Peter Jackson has done it well enough, luckily.<P>Peter Jackson's just lucky no one's twisted the idea of orcs being 'dark-skinned' into a 'racial slurr' (a nifty name, eh?). <P>I really don't understand this 'white world' thing, though. If it had been 'black world,' it wouldn't be considered racism, would it? It most likely wouldn't even make it into the category of 'reverse racism.' That's another nifty name, direct from some lovely politicians. <P>Peter Jackson most likely did try to avoid accusations of racism, and, luckily, so far he has. Most likely because he's making enough money. <P>That was a bit harsh, but those are the kinds of things I think about sometimes...so, it's basically opinion. Please enlighten me to anything that I have said unfairly.<p>[ 2:22 PM December 31, 2003: Message edited by: Durelin ]
