Idris Elba is a good actor too.
But `Roland Deschain’ in lefty Stephen King’s Dark Tower series wasn’t black either.
The point remains—to fans it is politically correct, diversity bull shit.
So that movie tanked. It is what it is.
No there is no point. It’s just idiotic whining on both sides. It’s a classic “both sides are bleeding morons” situation, leftists whining about “white washing” and righties bitching about “PC washing” are bothing being just plain stupid racist gits and should STFU and feel embarrassed to even thinking anything that bloody stupid. Really, get over it, if you think the most important thing about an actor, ANY actor, is their skin color you’re just wrong and really need to get your head out. You’ll find the world smells better.
Dark Tower because the movie blew. Didn’t matter who they cast in it, they took a multi-thousand page book series and turned it into an hour and 35 minutes of “even people who memorized this series won’t understand what’s going on”.
