Is racial accuracy important for you in movies or shows?

It's nice when it lines up that way, but doesn't need to be so exact. Just as long as they don't go full tom cruise in the last samurai.

It all depends on the context or time period in my opinion. A movie set in New York today could feature a broad mix of ethnicities and nobody would bat an eye because it's the reality of the city. Now if you were to make a movie about Iceland in the 1100's and the cast is all black it wouldn't make sense, or a movie set in China during the Ming dynasty and everyone is white. They kinda did that with some ancient Egypt movies which is bullshit but I really don't care that much, I just won't watch it if it doesn't seem good. If I do watch a movie and it is good but still features things like that it just takes away from the experience, if they're going for accuracy they're failing but maybe they aren't?
