When he turns into a werewolf, he's suddenly good at basketball and breakdancing. You tell me.

Okay, the breakdancing is hard to work around.

The basketball I was thinking could be a weird coincidental thing. & I guess what I was thinking was that, essentially, it could be a result of the fact that the way that we stereotype people of African descent usually tends to fall into the narrative of 'more primitive, therefore more physically able, more spiritually and socially in tune with nature, more charismatic, but less intelligent', right? In other words, the stereotypical narrative tends to want to reduce the humanity of Africans and turn them into something more 'primitive'. So it wouldn't seem impossible that a movie about a white dude becoming a beast could accidentally fall into the same logic.

Even with the breakdancing, it's probably as much about Fox turning 'cool' and all the things that we think of as cool happen to be coded as black, which is also connected to the above logic I think. But that's much less coincidental.
