I mean... i went to read it and he is right? He is pointing out that it's hypocritical to pretend to be progressive by casting a brown person as snow white (to cater to the poc consumer, but also mainly to manufacture controversies) while still using disabled people as background characters for "fantasy flavor".
I misread it I guess. I thought he was complaining about the seven dwarfs in general
Real shame that sequel series to Lizzy McGuire fell through. I feel sorry for Hilary.
It's not just gender swapped, its also fun swapped (as in fun deficient). It looks like absolute dreck. There is noting interesting in that promo to draw you in. Its just absolutely lame.
We will never find out how she met the dad because this is getting canned after one season. It is so so bad
That's what it sounds like to me. He's pissed that they're making a movie with dwarfs or calling it dwarfs or something. The chick playing Snow White looks like a bulbhead and has no boobs. I can't wait until they make a Pocahontas live-action movie and cast a tranny in the lead.
Yeah, but so did Snow White in the original.
I was rally looking foreword to the Lizzy Mcguire sequel series. I was so sad when they announced it wasn't happening
She was also 14 which is a bit sus considering the Prince.
IRL Pocahontas was 12 when she married John Smith, and the Prince in Beauty and the Beast is supposed to be 15. Also the Beast and Beauty were revealed to be first cousins in the original version of the story. Aurora is 16 in Sleeping Beauty. This shit ain't out of the norm in fairy tales, is what I'm saying.
I just found a thing about age gaps in Disney films and thought it was interesting. The real Snow White news is that Peter Dinklage isn't happy with the way Disney's going about making the new film. Not sure why he thinks they live in a cave and not that nice cottage in the woods though.

I get why he feels the way he does, but I don't know how you could do it otherwise.I just found a thing about age gaps in Disney films and thought it was interesting.

Peter Dinklage Blasts Disney’s ‘Snow White’ Remake: ‘A F—ing Backwards Story About Dwarfs’
Disney’s slate of live-action remakes has included “Cinderella,” “The Jungle Book” and “Beauty and the Beast,” and coming soon is Marb Webb’s live-ac…
Pocahontas never married John Smith, she married John Rolfe when she was older.
You're right. That damn Rat scrambled my brain for a moment, sorry.
Haven't they always been fantasy dwarves anyhow? Hence the beards and the mine and shit? Those have been around for centuries and fantasy media generally makes it clear that they're not the same as human dwarves. All you can do is make it abundantly clear they're not short hairy humans and I think you're okay. Anyways as you said, they're integral to the story and give it it's identity.
Not sure how, she didn't marry John Smith in their version either.
But they are basically short hairy humans.
Yeah but how are they not short hairy humans?
In the sense that elves are tall people with pointy ears (or short people with pointy ears, depending on the depiction).
