Controversy: Dubbing of Ariel in a non-English language
pubblicato da wonder2wonderSTAFFMOD il 31 maggio, 2023 alle 8:18AM
According to the Western Media all dubbing of Ariel (Halle Bailey) in a non-English language should be done by black women speaking the native language of that country.
However, in some countries, for example South Korea, it is not done by a black woman and they are now called out for colourism and racism.
What do you think?

I think its a shit movie and the media is trying to help as much as it can by screaming 'racism!' Oh and Dani from New Jeans is a fucking angel and sounds wayyyyy better than Bailey.

I feel like this is a non-story - one tiny obscure media website reporting on a single Spanish site and painting it as "Western Media". Click bait at its worst.

'Why does The Little Mermaid have a slightly lower box office performance?' Cause it sucks lol. This might break even, but not at the box office. With Across the Spider-Verse and Transformers coming out, its just going to dry up real fast. See what I did there? Dry up?
