John D. Payne and Patrick McKay the two show runners were given the job without any professional prior writing experience apart from an uncredited hand in writing Star Trek Beyond . Neither has any experience at all of directing . These are the two people Amazon have put in charge of such an expensive project .
Then there is woke casting . A show based on Tolkien’s works should respect Tolkien’s world . That means you don’t insert your social agenda into such a project or it stops resembling what Tolkien envisioned . If you do that you instantly lose a huge section of the audience you are trying to attract .
Its not that you can’t have a diverse Middle Earth because there a lands such as Harad to the south and Rhun to the East that are populated with people of color .They could easily have created new characters from those regions . The problem is they have chosen not to do this and have opted for Multi-Cultural Hobbits , Dwarves and Elves which shows a complete disrespect for the source material .
The reaction to the youtube trailer has been overwhelmingly negative . With more than 10 million views its struggled to get a hundred thousand likes . If that is any indication to go by this show is going to struggle .
Btw minority characters for generations have been whitewashed by Hollywood (what you think the real Lone Ranger was) and yet you don’t see boo frickening woo. I wonder why.
So on top of being bigot you are also ignorant about history. Congrats.
Not hate of its true Bogota which it is. Again minorities been whitewashed by yeopd for generations but you didn’t care. Now they want to make casts reflect society a bit more and lose your minds. Again bigots got to bigot.
That is an assumption on your part . I did care and never liked white actors playing POC parts . It always seemed ridiculous to me even as a kid .
As I pointed out they can make this Lord of the Rings project diverse and reflect society by casting having POC actors play characters from parts of middle Earth like Harad and Rhun were black and Asian people inhabit .
What I have a problem with is not that its a diverse cast its because they have done it in such a manner that they have changed the lore.
As I have pointed out , you obviously don’t know the meaning of the word bigot ! Its just something you throw around parrot fashion .
And with every comment you post you make yourself seem more of a fool . No wonder woke culture is failing so badly if you are representative of the kind of person who supports it .

I think Amazon is just fine losing the snowflake white male bigots who still think it’s the 1930’s.

I doubt they will be fine if they have alienated the very people who are most likely to watch this series . Incidentally I am female .
Not the brightest of bulbs are you .

Again they really don’t care to lose some bigots.

So what is so bigoted about suggesting that they could introduce diversity into this show and stay within the lore ?
Not the brightest of bulbs are you lol

So are you saying race swapping characters happened in the past and it was wrong but somehow that makes it alright now ?
Ever heard of two wrongs not making a right ?

Please keep your tantrums to a minimum.

There are no native Americans or Asians in the main cast care to explain to me how that reflects society?
As always with hypocrites like you its all about black and white .
