    Disney is now getting sued by 'little people' for excluding them from appearing as the dwarves.

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14527443/snow-white-movie-dwarfs-lawsuit.html

    The chain of events went something like "Peter Dinklage decided to call it bigotry to use real little people -> Disney relents and removes real little people -> real little people sue for being excluded".

    Education is extremely important.

      Listen to Dinklage's voice in the first minute of this.

      I sometimes wonder if guys in show business get voice deepening procedures. So many of them have radio voices that they didn't have when they were younger. George Clooney and Bryan Cranston come to mind. I know voices change with age, but not that much.

        Hey, I wasn’t cast either though I’m the obvious choice for the Handsome Prince. I even speak Spanish in case Rachel gets flustered and forgets her lines in English.

        Calling my lawyer tomorrow.

        Only non-witches get due process.

            They ain’t got no reason.

            To sue.

                      $75M domestic, $80M international. $250M production budget not including promotion means the film needs to make $650M - $700M to break even, and now you’re at the point that Disney takes a lower percentage of ticket sales. This is looking pretty bad…

                        I hope so. Woke Hollywood needs to die. Disney is not following anything near to what Walt's vision was.

                        Not even in the theme parks. Wonder what Walt would think about a middle class family dropping a $1000 a day to attend Disneyworld? Wonder what Walt would think when a poorer family can't afford to go at all?

                          A friend sent this:

                          Why did Gal Gadot agree to star in the film “Snow White”?

                          Because it was a bomb primarily intended for children.
