I'm watching the newest Netflix show, Shadow and Bone. It's YA fantasy, based on books. I read most of them and I have an opinion on them. Basically, the author used to have some nice ideas, but then it all devolved into typical teen girl fare.
But what Netflix does is so typical of what happens with shows and movies now. The main character in the books goes through this long period of being a fish out of water. An orphan girl suddenly becoming a powerful person, living in the royal palace. Everyone is superficial and a total backstabber, they make fun of her. They have gone through the same kind of rigorous training through abuse, but nobody tells her, so she feels she is worse than them.
Then in time she finds her place, and it turns out everyone else also felt those things.
In the show everyone, except like one girl, automatically accepts and loves her, but then mean people are... RACIST, because she is half their world's equivalent of Asian in the show (she was 100% white in the books).
Why do these people always, always trade universally understandable human emotions for in-your-face, comical Muh Racism? It's not like she would have suffered any less if they went with everyone being a catty bitch to her.
It almost feels like the creators don't understand human beings have feelings other than oppression. Like you can be lonely even if you are not coloured. You can be an outsider without having the gays. You can have limited opportunities without having a vagina.
But that's too complex for them. Too much thinking.
They should fire those kids if they loose that much money on a 200 million dollar film or video game that is being created and being told we need Transgenders and gays because of diversity it sounds like a sex cult robots came up with these ideas then actually knowing.
Hell, I felt the same when they made Warrior Nun Areala TV series based on the indie comic by Ben Dunn on Netflix and they turn that show into shit. They made Shot Gun Marry into a Black woman but at the same time the actress did alright but that whole show wasn't good enough which was cancel.
The social media manager types usually stay with a company for as minimal a time as possible to jump ship and build a longer LinkedIn resume. Personally, I see resumes on there that show someone only stays with companies for 6 months to a year and I assume that person is an asshole.
In the working-class world, if you are at a company for less than a year it's typically a black mark on your resume.
They should of hire the person behind the Sonic the Hedgehog account on twitter that person is doing a far better job of marketing Sonic games and other stuff by shit posting Sonic memes on twitter without trying to be political.
