People need to understand the difference..

Black people already existed in middle earth. This is just HAM FISTING diversity for the sake of it. And it was also done in such a silly ass way.

Slowly takes HAM FISTED and puts it back in the HAM FiSTED rack

can't come up with your own shit? just rewrite great works from 100 years ago instead! It's pathetic and obvious, you love it though. "journalists" will give it 10/10 for the wokeness alone and user reviews will be 5/10 at best.

It doesn't matter what race any of the actors are that playing these characters.

There have been countless examples of actors who did not match the source material. Short actors playing the role of someone who was supposed to be tall, brunettes playing characters who were supposed to be redheads, British actors playing Middle Eastern Biblical figures, etc.

Yet you draw the line at black people cast as elves. Wonder why..

We're talking about ****ing swords & sorcery high fantasy. We have dragons and balrogs and all kinds of unbelievable crazy shit but OMFG black elves?

Oh please, lets not pretend the discussion of people playing roles designed to be a different race than their own started with Amazon's LOTR series. And yes there are countless examples of people playing roles that differ from their physical appearance etc. People also used to have white actors wear blackface. Now when someone plays a role even slightly outside their real life situation they are criticized for it.

Here's an example (there are many more) of someone claiming it's "ableist" (:doh!:) for a non disabled person to play someone disabled. This article was written in 2014, so let's not pretend no one cared about this stuff until they cast a black elf.

I heard the Dragons are being played by Jews.

You aren't paying attention.

I would never make the claim that no one cared about this stuff until LOTR. I have literally had arguments with dipshits like you all over this sub-forum for probably the last two years or so.

Where was Bump when they cast pasty-white Brit Christian Bale as Moses in Exodus? He was quiet as a mouse, of course.

Yet he's in here crying about a black Dwarf in a fantasy film. He is triggered because they found a Puerto Rican dude to play an Elf lol imagine being that weak.

They should make a Boyz 'N The Hood type of movie staring a bunch of white girls.

That's fine. It fits the lore.

Jesus, you ****ing cucks that have to find something to whine about in every aspect of your lives should just end it all. You have to be the most miserable person on this planet to whine about an elf being black.

It's like an incel/racist cry fest in the Media Center and it comes from the same cucks that frequent DC. Just a bunch of low life losers on the internet.
