Can they take a picture of what the song sounds like?

But, any knee jerk "ehh this movie looks like it sucks and why are they involved with something like this" is definitely going to hit my radar. The mere mention of it struck an immediate chord in me, like "any time they tap into a culture that I share that's a big moment for me personally" and to see "huh? what? Hah this looks funny in a strange way and doesn't seem to fit them" is just ..... iffy. Like why any knee jerk response? (to which I openly admit to having , but in an extremely positive way). We know next to nothing except the following: it's a movie with a romantic twist, 2 different races, strong ethnic twist, maybe comedic, maybe a musical, etc. All things that do not exactly scream straight white male to me. So, what exactly is it that provokes any response, especially ones that appear let down by the whole concept, given what we know only from the poster and that little trailer? I'm just curious, just seems .... iffy. Again, it's the exact opposite for me, where my positive reaction is mainly based on the same limited information - and that positive reaction stems purely from the ethnic flavor of this thing.
