prevnexti admittedly didn't realize it was even tina fey until reading stuff afterward. the 30 rock/blackface stuff makes it awkward. 😬

prevnextTina Fey erased all the blackface episodes of 30 Rock so people couldn't do memes with her character arc in SOUL.

The other movies where they did the animal thing were good & two of them were really moving too. Just... why tf is it like the only plot they can come up with for these movies
Also: didn't Tina Fey have blackface put into a 30 Rock episode???

prevnextNot only does he get transformed into a blue soul, but (SPOILER) he also loses control of his body to Tina Fey’s character for a large part of the movie. It felt like a 21st century version of Blackface to me... And she already had racist moments in 30 Rock and Kimmy Schmidt.

Watched #SoulMovie again and I loved it. And yet, predictably, woke Twitter is losing their s**t and calling Tina Fey a racist for her character inhabiting the body of Joe Gardner for a portion of the film. Is this still about the 30 Rock blackface? Not this again #WokeIsAJoke

prevhe wasn't blue for too much at all... but he was a cat and then tina fey was in his body instead >:/ which is so wrong on so many levels after she had to apologize for like. what. FIVE instances of blackface in 30 rock alone was it??
