Tim Burton Seems Bad

Get out of here.

Did you see this? Apparently it “blew up Twitter,” but I didn’t see it on there so I’m gonna share it with you here, too. In a recent interview with Bustle about how it’s fucked up that Tim Burton’s new movie is all white except for the bad guy who is black, Tim Burton said this:

“Nowadays, people are talking about it more,” he says regarding film diversity. But “things either call for things, or they don’t. I remember back when I was a child watching The Brady Bunch and they started to get all politically correct. Like, OK, let’s have an Asian child and a black. I used to get more offended by that than just… I grew up watching blaxploitation movies, right? And I said, that’s great. I didn’t go like, OK, there should be more white people in these movies.”

Huh. Fuck this guy, seems like he sucks.
