Great point. I’ve been meaning to read the books and watch the expanse. And you are right. These fantasy shows that are obviously based on medieval Europe look ridiculous having a racially diverse small village. Like in the wheel of time it makes more sense to encounter different races once they travel. But yes I’d be the same with the queens guard. What his backstory is and stuff
Frankly it would be better if they "reimagined" those classic works set in African-themed villages with all Black people than the fake mixed-races globohomo themes they use today.
Or not. Give them access to African culture and they make The Woman King, a movie glorifying a bunch of murderous slavers who got rightfully BTFO'd by the French.
True or just adapt some folklore from Africa. I’ve read mythology/folklore from all over. There is a massive amount of it. If I read European folklore I want to see European culture and learn. Same with other areas
I'm actually really sad about all the globohomo shit because when I was a kid in the early 2000s I thought we were reaching an age where more South America and Africa mythology would be explored in media and I was excited to learn it.
Instead they rebooted and destroyed all the Western myths and now we just get disgusting meshes of people from nowhere with no history and stories that mean nothing and connect to no one.
imagine some kind of aztec epic with the budget of game of thrones
And I wouldn’t trust modern Hollywood to adapt any folklore or myths or even history because to them only the western world did anything wrong. Every other culture is perfect and peace loving
