@Variety The man turns everything he makes into his own big gay struggle session.
English

“Doctor Who” and “Queer as Folk” writer Russell T Davies says his new drama series “Tip Toe” is “very much a reaction to where we are now.”
"And I thought increasingly, as a gay man in 2026, I felt that the queer discourse was becoming so hostile and so dangerous in a way that I never thought would happen again."

Please stop talking about subject matter you know nothing about.

.@JackPosobiec: Lord of the Rings is overtly pagan.
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Wearing or not wearing glasses is not equivocal to being a completely different ethnicity.
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Suspending your disbelief would be required if they were asking you to believe that he was playing a white guy. People sometimes look different in motivations. Arthur and Percy Weasley didn’t wear glasses in the previous movies. That didn’t require suspension of disbelief.
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope You can cast an extremely old person to get more close to book accuracy no?
Okay? I’m not asking actors to ingest poison. What is with these pivots?
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope There are no human beings on earth who are the age that Dumbledore is, and he was not anywhere near death. He was poisoned twice with things that would kill a normal man, and he still had to get a death curse put on him.
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope I do. Because he’s not black.
It’s not. That’s the whole point I’m making.
They cast a black guy not because of his actor ability, but to adhere to quotas. They needed to have a primary or secondary character be a minority. It’s been the reality for quite a while.
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope You don’t have to suspend your disbelief. And why would they cast for a specific race if ethnicity is irrelevant?
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Because Dumbledore is very old and it’s vital to his character.
English

Hogwarts Legacy was an overwhelming success.
And not a single trans identifying individual has died as a result.

English

@SilverAipom I’m confused more of the children who make this point don’t actually understand the full context of the situation. They resort straight to some hyperbolic fictional narrative.
Saying you’re not a woman is not a declaration of violent intent.
It’s highlighting basic reality.
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Why didn’t they cast an actor who is on the verge of death to play Dumbledore?
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope I never thought you were or said anything that would make you think that.
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Because it’s easier to suspend your disbelief when it comes to age. You can’t do it when you race swap an established character.
Snape is not black.
Just as Harry is not black. Why didn’t they cast a Punjabi boy with if his ethnicity is irrelevant?
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Snape’s age is relevant to the story. His skin is not. Your image does not apply to this story, that’s meant to be about things that don’t exist in the setting, which isn’t true of black people in modern Britain.
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope It’s an observation. If they complain about “accuracy” only when skin color comes up, they don’t actually care about accuracy. I saw that trailer. Petunia also doesn’t look like her book counterpart. No one’s complaining about her, are they?
English

@PBanpoys @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Claiming people don’t actually care about accuracy is cope.
English

@CallumJAger @n0ver_ @SeverusChud @InsaneCope You bring up a good point. Anybody who claims their opposition to the casting is based on book accuracy is a liar. But that doesn’t somehow make your casting better.
English

@TArchcast Remember when the movies became progressively darker in colour grading? Tf is the series going to look like when they eventually get to Deathly Hallows?
English

@CallumJAger @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Richings is 69 years old already.
In the books, Snape was 31 when Harry arrived at Hogwarts.
English

@BloodRiversMoon @SeverusChud @InsaneCope I get it. But neither was Alan. I think in terms of the characters description, he fits the gaunt, sickly description.
English

@zavieir @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Neither was Alan, but I’d rather have an exception based on age than have him be race swapped for quota points.
English

@CallumJAger @SeverusChud @InsaneCope Isn't it supposed to be a younger version of Snape? this guy looks even older than the original snape 🤣🤣🤣
English

Okay there's "seperating art from artist" and then there's J.K.Rowling who is literally using any money she gets from Harry Potter to fuel movements in the UK to try and illegalize trans people existing. Get out of your cradle you actual child. Grow the fuck up.
Avary@LayOnbedL
@DiscussingFilm People who hate Harry Potter because they can't separate the art from the artist.
