I am sure they will do a fine job of the special effects, but things like the casting of Liet Kynes as a black woman just pisses me off and makes me not want to see it.

Apologists may rationalize it and say Liet Kynes is a bit part, but I am someone who would see it because I read the book.

Fidelity means something to me. It isn’t that they cast a black woman, I would be just as irritated if they had cast a young white boy or Asian woman. It was a white man in the book.

Why would they change for any reason other than pandering?

I'm still pissed at Marvel an Heimdahl THE WHITE being cast with a black man. Granted, a talented black man... But what an overt Racist BS virtue signal move...

Liet as a woman does nothing for the plot and is 100% an SJW pander move.
