I hate this fucking lie. Anyone who actually believes they hold open auditions, that they don't already have an idea of who they want to cast and just go off performance, is retarded. That's it.
Because I'm not a fucking retard, Neil! I know what the costume will look like, it will be the actress in vaguely punky clothes. They won't put her in makeup or use special effects to change her skin tone, because they dont want to "erase" a black woman. So it won't be Death, it will be a black woman wearing generic black jeans and leather. As for the script, do you really expect me to believe they have such an iconic character be swapped and they don't do anything to advance their agenda with it? Whyshould I believe him when he's already lying about everything else?
Only to roll over like a good little cuck for the bad television adaptation instead. Precious.
