i do think casting other races breaks immersion somewhat
but i'll get over it if the story is good

I guess cultural appropriation only works one way.

Or are you unable to catch the fact that the casting for this takes you out of the setting? Or did Hobbits just murder all the black hobbits before the third age? It's not needed, thats the point. I would say the same shit if black panther was casted as a white guy.

I have not heard good things about this, unfortunately. I was kind of looking forward to it.

I don't care about black dwarves or gay elves (lets be honest, elves are pretty gay even if they're "straight").
I didn't read any of the books nor am i invested in the lore. I just hope they can deliver a competent story that keeps me engaged. To which i must say i am doubtful of.

I read both Wiseguy and watched Goodfellas. One of my favorite stories of all time. How about if someone remade the story with Robert De Niro's character as a cross dresser, Joe Pesci's character as a flaming gay (ala Richard Simmons), Henry Hill as a transvestite, and Big Paulie as a crippled bi-sexual. Respect the lore if you're going to use the title or don't piggyback off it. |

They just need a vessel to carry their message to the masses...

The books went into great detail about individual characters but they didn't definitively delineate "race" other than human, dwarf, elf, etc.

Don't care about color of their skin. It's woke agenda pushing. Don't piggy back off the title if you're going to bastardize the lore. |
