| Topic | OUTRAGE and PRAISE for Disney Casting a Black Ariel!! Is She Hot??? |
| Blaqthourne 07/10/19 7:08:12 AM #79: | I really don't care about the casting choice, but the little mermaid is definitely white in the original story, if this translation is accurate: http://hca.gilead.org.il/li_merma.html "When something like a black cloud passed between her and them, she knew that it was either a whale swimming over her head, or a ship full of human beings, who never imagined that a pretty little mermaid was standing beneath them, holding out her white hands towards the keel of their ship." "He fixed his coal-black eyes upon her so earnestly that she cast down her own, and then became aware that her fishs tail was gone, and that she had as pretty a pair of white legs and tiny feet as any little maiden could have; but she had no clothes, so she wrapped herself in her long, thick hair." "Then the little mermaid raised her lovely white arms," I'd never actually read the original story before. --- Montreal Expos (1969-2004) http://www.backloggery.com/Blaqthourne Now playing: Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee (PS1) -- started 7/7/2019 ...
