What exactly makes a movie (or TV series) racist?

    I was reading the thread about whether "Kong" is a racist movie or not, and was interested that some people read racist overtones into the film. Having not seen it yet, I'm not qualified to comment about Kong, but wondered what qualities readers look for to determine if a film or TV series is racist. So what do you think of shows and movies such as: Seinfeld, Friends, Lord of the Rings, Narnia, etc. Are white writers/directors/producers more or less racist than black writers/directors/producers?
