This is definitely intriguing but the layering of the "white voice" over his mouth movements looks really bad.

Yeah, I replaced the twitter trailer with the youtube trailer in the post because I thought it was a quality issue, but it's just not lined up well. Drunk History does it better than that.

You got my attention with Lakeith, you got my guaranteed attendance at Steven.

this whole cast (minus armie) is amazing. i think it could be interesting.

I'm going to see this because of how absurd it is and also how correct it is with white voices. I can't tell you how many people are shocked when they see my Black ass come in for an interview. Coworker who I interviewed said, "I was talking to a white woman named Veronica."

Me: "That was me."

Her: "Well, you sound white."

LOL! This is so true. I don't even notice when I do it anymore. I work front desk and have to call up visitors and deliveries. I was calling to announce a food delivery. The guy stared at me and said wow, your whole voice changed, damn. I couldn't stop laughing.

someone said that to you in an interview? lol that's risky

[iluvpans]

What I meant is that after the woman was interviewed and got the job, she told me that she thought I was white.
