Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By shack357: Why do they have to keep recasting traditionally white characters as black? Why not make new characters, amd cast THOSE as black? All they're doing when they recast, is telling black people they can have characters but they're not good enough to have "their own" characters. |

I could not stand the DiCaprio version of Romeo and Juliet or The Captain Picard version of Macbeth. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By pavil58ar: People can vote with their wallets. No like, no pay to watch. Pretty straightforward. Not sure how many runs of this they've done there, but this is likely a "no publicity is bad publicity" game. Woke culture in London is pretty entrenched. Among the theater going crowd? Probably off the charts. I doubt any backlash from normies will have any impact. |

Invariably, we'd get to the kitchen and the wife was unable to visualize the fucking cabinet doors. Every. Fucking. Time. The cabinet structure, spacing and function could remain the same, but they just couldn't visualize what it'd look like with different doors. I'd wind up drawing 15 different versions of the GD kitchen cabinet doors and trim profiles clearly noted so they could look them up in the book, and without fucking fail, we'd be getting ready for the final submission and the bitch would walk into the meeting with a fucking magazine and go Oh what would it look like with these doors? When the bill came due, again without fail, the husband would call us bitching about how high the bill was and we'd have to explain to him, yet again, we don't fucking work for free and his wife wanted 15 fucking versions of the cabinets because she couldn't visualize them. To whit her replay was always, I thought the price included revisions? And we would show her the e-mails where she acknowledged that two revisions were included in the price, not fifteen. The husband would then bitch at us and swear he didn't know his wife was doing that and we should have told him because he was the one writing the check! And we'd show him the e-mails where we told him it was happening. You know the e-mails he never fucking responded to because he never fucking read them because he was soooooooo happy his wife was bothering someone else with her non-visualization bullshit.

Besides, Dune part 3 hasn't even started filming, she's probably under contractual obligations not to commit to something like that. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Kits4: I bet this is going to be a blockbuster. Better show up early to get in line. People will see it just to see Tom Holland. The Spider Man movies made him a household name, The rest of the cast is probably irrelevant. Add to that the woke proclivities of the London theater set and how controversy sells in general, and it will likely do better than previous iterations. |

Amewudah-Rivers was announced as the show’s Juliet in March, one month after it was revealed Holland, 27, was going to be starring in the William Shakespeare play. Trolls took to Amewudah-Rivers’ Instagram page to antagonize her. The bullying toward the Black actress was so bad that the official Romeo & Juliet Instagram page has turned off comments. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/327183/IMG_3619_jpeg-3217611.JPG One other thing that stands out to me: Juliet in 1968: 15 years old Juliet in 1996: 17 years old Juliet in 2013: 17 years old Juliet in 2023: 27 years old Yeah, they’re supposed to be like 15 and 12, why the fuck are they in their 30s now lol? |

Quote HistoryTracy Chapman may not be a great beauty, but that girl has enough talent and soul to easily overcome that. Maybe Francesca is a great actress? She sure isn't famous for it. Can you imagine her joy at being picked for this role? Then that backlash? It seems they really set this poor girl up to fail. Pretty shitty of them for virtue signaling at her expense. |
