Casting a brown skinned woman as Snow White will never not be silly.

It's similar to Jack Reacher, it's made very clear in the books he's a tall, physically intimidating person. And they cast Tom Cruise to play him.

    Would be better if they actually made new movies with different cultures stories instead of just remaking the old shit too.

    They do this outrage bait on purpose though. American society is brain rotted and we need a cause to support or hate. Even in children's movies.

    who gives a piss, like genuinely

    beyond her name, is there any reason why snow white should be white?

    and, like, even then. "brown skinned". Zegler is super pale, you’re just mad she’s not a WASP

    anyways fuuuuuck disney for a bunch of reasons, but "casting POC for traditionally white roles" is not one of them.

    Pretty sure the original text describes her skin as white as snow

    In that case no human fits the description, not even albinos who are more pink than "white as snow".

    Well, apart maybe from black metal artists.

    Grown men having strong opinions on how Disney Princesses should look will never not be silly.

    There's no reason for it to matter to them.

    "Strong Opinions", or just find it ridiculous?

    I'm sure there's a few that were upset, but I think most people were just amused.
