I don't know much about the Witcher, so I can't really comment, but I DO know that the only elves that are black are Drow, although that's a bit weird in itself because any race that lives exclusively underground should actually be albino (and probably blind)
I heard that Amazon is making a tv version of Lord of the Rings and that they're going to make Gandalf a woman - because, 2019 yo...
As a woman I find this level of pandering to be gross and offensive. These SJW retards cannot make ANYTHING of quality because they have no creative talents - all they can do is tear down and destroy existing and beloved franchises by injecting their own brand of extremist identity politics and that sucks because it's totally ruining all the wonderful things we grew up with.
Keep the fucking politics out of entertainment!
Look at what they've destroyed so far;
Star Wars
Ghostbusters
Doctor Who
Star Trek
Spiderman
X-men
Avengers (the way they treated Thor in Endgame was shameful - and the whole Marvel universe in general is pretty much dead because of this woke bullshit - Endgame itself was disappointing, and the least we say about Captain Marvel, the better)
The Terminator
Men in Black
Charlies Angels
James Bond
And many, many more. Even Cats is not immune to this (I haven't seen it yet but I know they've gender-swapped Old Deuteronomy - who was written as a male character - against the wishes of TS Elliot's estate. This may not actually ruin it - I'll have to see, but all this radical political crap in the past few years has made us particularly sensitive to this sort of tampering with canon)
And the thing to note is that every single one of these has been a disastrous flop as a result, yet they carry on doing it. They know this stuff is despised by audiences, yet they keep trying to brainwash us but it clearly isn't working. Shoving political ideology into movies does NOT put bums on seats. all it does is pander to idiots on twitter who don't even watch these things anyway.
Some of the big studios (Disney in particular) have made it acceptable for overpaid Hollywood elitists to come out and insult the audiences and call us names - and then they expect us to give them money to see their next propaganda piece. No way - Fuck those guys. Entertainment is a buyer's market like everything else and they'd better start giving us what WE want instead of beating us over the head with far-left extremism and then insulting us when we push back against it. We are sick to the back teeth of this crap!
Not good enough. Not even close!
I wonder how long this crap will carry on for - it can't last forever because it is costing the studios a fortune in lost ticket sales. Sooner or later this lunacy will show up on their bottom line and the shareholders (who don't care about ideology, only money) will demand changes from top to bottom.
Hopefully before there is nothing left to enjoy...
