are people actually mad or upset at black snape or this odyssey shit or are we just memeing? And then are the people who are calling those people chuds actually thinking they’re making people seethe or are you just counter-memeing. I find it hard to imagine there are people out there who aren’t simply apathetic about any new media. But I can’t tell what’s real anymore either
>>220462084Unironic racists/general nutjobs are definitely mad. It's kinda stupid but doesn't make me mad, movies and TV shows are just make believe nonsense anyway.
>>220462084they aren't hiring black people for these roles because they're talented actors. they're hiring them based purely on skin colour.that's racism. i thought you didn't like racists?
>>220462157I like racism when it's towards white people.
>>220462084I'm genuinely mad about it but I don't consume modern garbage so it doesn't matter to me
OP here>>220462188this desu
>>220462188We know, heeb. Pity that goyim saved your asses from those camps.
>>220462084>dude... who... le cares... just... don't... le careWell, you cared enough to make a thread complaining about it, so you're being a hypocrite.
>>220462238>>220462222>>220462188>>220462157OP here… what the hell?
>>220462084I honestly think it's hilarious watching leftroons defend the casting of a low-smoke-detector-battery individual as literally the biggest cuck in all of fiction. It legit feels like a /pol/ joke, like "let's see if we can get them to defend making a black guy into a cuck."
>>220462157true
>>220462260 I made the thread because I want to know if people are being genuine or memeing.
Like to me HBO Harry Potter and Nolan’s Odyssey are on the same level of interest as a community college’s theater club’s production.
>>220462293i thought you made it to show how racist white people were
I dislike it but I am also here to laugh at it. The Odyssey casting is so over the top bad it's parody.
>>220462084I think black Snape looks cool and he will do fine in the role. Alan Rickman was 54 when he was cast as Snape which is over 20 years older than how the character was represented in the books and he still charmed his way into all the Snape wives’ panties. The real problem is that the kids will be approaching 30 if they actually finish the story
It's just annoying and tiresome
>>220462471alan rickman was a fucking brilliant actor with decades of experience and training and to compare him to the talentless brown DEI hire they've added to the TV show for BlackRock Points™ is absolutely fucking retarded. think before you post, tranny cunt.
>>220462293Never gave a shit about Harry Potter or Nolan as a director but this crap is just tiresome. How many franchises have been ruined over the last few years by injecting gender/raceswapping garbage into them and generally wokifying them. Star Wars, Star Trek, Rings of Power, Indiana Jones, Wheel of Time, Game of Thrones, the list goes on and on. They've done irreparable harm to franchises because they think they have the right to be cultural vandals because they are on the Right Side of History
>>220462509being a black man in america is worth decades of acting mayomonk
>>220462084Would you have a similar mindset if someone made a black character white?
>>2204625762/10 too obvious
>>220462509No way, black Snape looks like he’s really into the part. I think he’s going to be the standout performance. He’s got that silent and sneaky look with the braided hair and the robes. Not taking anything away from Alan Rickman. He was great too. But just as Snape was white Snape in the books he was also James and Lilly Potters age, not in his 50s. Black young Snape vs white old Snape has no clear winner when it comes to keeping with the source material.
>>220462593wachu say mang??? helll nawww
>>220462084my culture is not your costume mr nolan
>>220462592If Ryan Gosling played Obama I would just think it was funny, black Caesar or whatever is just stupid
>>220462084I feel like it's 90% jokes 10% seriousness. Black Snape is just flat out weird and wrong, but it's not doing a single thing to ruin my life so it's whatever. I'll watch a couple of episodes to see if it's worth my attention, and if not I'll move on. Nolan's Odyssey's casting is just kind of funny, I don't plan on watching it but I hope it does well in the box office so I can laugh at the threads here, hell even if it flops the threads will still be funny.
Genuinely mad? No. Just memeing? Also no. It's more annoying than anything. It's not just that they're casting blacks. Nobdoy cared when Denzel was cast as Macbeth. They could do a full blaxploitation Odyssey and it would probably be fun. The problem is that there's a specific Hollywood studio attitude about how Western culture is somehow immoral, and that injecting diversity casting into traditional Western stories can somehow fix it. It's patronizing and insulting. It's the attitude of "swallow your medicine, child," that is so obviously going on that's annoying.
>>220462084right wingers lost the warbut then the lefties decomposed so only alt right fags care about muh cultural war anymore
>>220462734That's going a little too deep. Nolan is just casting his friends in his remixed version of a Greek myth. He's putting on a backyard play for the neighborhood except he has a quarter of a billion dollars to do it. He's not making any type of commentary on modern day society. Anybody taking this movie seriously is being daft. What we were shown in the trailer is just too silly for anybody to provide serious commentary on.
>>220462291how is that legal? it breaks anti-discrimination employment laws surely?
