Set photos from Disney’s upcoming live-action remake of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" revealed that the entertainment company has prioritized diversity in casting its characters.
Multiple photos released from the production depicted a stunt double as Snow White, who will be played by Hispanic actress Rachel Zegler, and images of the characters who used to be called the "seven dwarves," and are now referred to as "magical creatures."
These photos, obtained by British outlet The Daily Mail, indicated that the new "magical creatures" are quite different from the animated dwarves of the original Disney movie. They are multi-racial, multi-gender and differ in height.

Kind of odd isn't it. One actor, a dwarf, (can one still say that or has it been junked into the forbidden word list) but, I digress. One actor complains about an age old story that features 7 dwarves and his outrage makes the Disney company completely change the original story. BUT, millions of people have been complaining about the Disney company sexualizing children in their stories and Disney calls them homophobic and refuses to stop.

So instead of leaving the original classic (masterpiece) alone they have to rewrite it (correct it in their minds) and dot it with a plethora of rainbow, politically correct screwed up characters. At least they could have written an original script for their f - ed up characters but it appears imagination is no longer a qualifier for a Disney employee. How many movies does this now make and how many more are on the drawing board? Stupid seems to be in great supply for a lot of these companies. When I was a kid we couldn't wait for Sunday night and the Disney television show. Good, funny cartoons, Annette and all the other vignettes they showed. Now that was entertainment. Now they put out this manure and really think families are going to spend a $100 for tickets and snacks to watch the manure ferment? Uh, that a big ten four NO. And that includes their Disney World gold turning into crap. Too expensive and too woke. Too bad. I have a lot of good memories of the original shows that were pretty great. Do they not realize that there is no grand prize for the stupidest person in the room?

Just how long can Disney continue to produce movies that lose money before the board of directors get sued for fiduciary misconduct? You can lose so much before stockholders see a loss and do something?

I'm seriously beginning to believe that the two head honchos at Disney have a bet about who can make the movie that will lose the most money.
The one guy said "let's make a live action "Little Mermaid" remake with a woke black femi-Nazi Ariel". So the other guy said "Hold my beer!!!!"
Well you come up with a better explanation...

Disney should stop production now and cut it's losses. The movie when completed and released will cost the company multiple millions in red ink. The movie will not be popular and there will be a negative spillover in park attendance. The Disney company is apparently run by woke fools. Makers of Bud Light have learned a lesson the hard way.

More glad than ever that I have all the animated classics (including "Snow White") on DVD, all bought before Disney went over the cliff. My kids think I'm foolish, but they're mine and I can watch them any time I want as many times as I want and not a penny in royalties goes to the company. As for this attempt at a remake, it's obvious that Disney may be about to launch their biggest financial bomb yet.

Worlds most famous dwarf...insists that no OTHER dwarfs get a shot at fame and fortune.
Makes sure the the ONE Major studio film since wizard of Oz a generation ago that would provide at least 7 (co) Starring roles for little people does NOT cast them.

It doesn't matter that the writers are on strike. It seems very few have an original thought. Rather than writing original material or even basing a new story on a classic, they see determined to take beautiful well loved stories and making a point to destroy the beauty and magic into some boring "woke" version, complete with a ton of Gay sexual innuendo that no one will watch a second time.
When they take The Jungle Book, or Roots and remake them with all white character's (all still living in India & Africa) I'll know that they really care.
And...because they are so WOKE, seven Dwarf actors won't be working.

Let's have a public library DWARFS story hour. They can show the old wrassling flicks.
Maybe even have a dwarf PRIDE parade. They've got better reason than the other letters. They are more sane.

Instead of exploiting the popularity of a classic by cloning it, they're ruining the popularity of a classic by changing it to conform to woke views.

In the original Brothers Grim tale she was called Snow White because he skin was the color of snow. The only parallel to this is the single dwarf. This is Brown Snow and the six multicultural degenerates.

False advertising. There's only one dwarf, unless the other six are transdwarves.

Her mother pricked her finger with a needle and, inspired by the drops in the snow wished for a baby daughter with "skin white as snow, lips red as blood, and hair black as coal." The actress is beautiful but totally wrong for the part (and the maroon wig does her no favors). The "magical creatures look like rejects from the chorus of a a D-list road company "Godspell". Tell Disney to stick it in their collective ear. Buy a book with nice illustrations and read it to your kid. So there.

...and here I thought that 'Cultural Appropriation' was a BIG NO-NO and was to be Universally and Fiercely Criticized.
But I guess that, like racial discrimination, it is only bad if it favors White folks.
When white folks are the Victims, it's OK... more than OK, it is to be Encouraged..... at least in the 'Woke' world.
Get Woke, Go Broke!

All this fuss was started by Peter Dinklage, aka the South Pole elf. It didn't get nearly as much coverage as his rant, but a lot of other little people actors were furious with him. They pointed out there aren't a lot of roles for people under 4 feet tall, and he just cost 7 of them a good job.
