It's the adaptation of Bernard Cornwall's The Winter King novel.

It's a great trilogy, but it's explicitly noted that Merlin is old, even at the start of the series. There's only one black character, and that's so rare that the saxons think he's a demon.

I knew this was going to be a disaster the moment it was announced.

How did you get away from that with your sanity intact?

They announced that he was getting his own trilogy before the release. It was definitely a stunt to hype TLJ.

D&D were announced around the time of Game of Thrones S6. Then S7 dropped and so were they :)

No-one in chat calling them out on the plan on drinking and driving? Hope the only person they injure is themselves.

Damon Lindelof.

HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS GUY KEEP GETTING WORK?!

I see the female POC directed the utter dross that was Ms Marvel. Another train wreck methinks Disney, prepare to throw another 350 million down the drain.

Also, I thought the next Disney Wars movie was supposed to be helmed by Taika Waititi? Thor: Love and Thunder not get the response the execs were hoping for?

I noped out of the Last Kingdom early, so missed that dumpster fire.

Sigh. I'm just going to pretend this doesn't exist. I still have the novels.

Fuck. This one stings guys, because I love this trilogy.

None of this makes ANY sense. I'm pretty sure there were no black druids, especially as the Romans tried to wipe them all out. The casting for Merlin is doubly stupid, as it's specifically pointed out how OLD he is during the course of the books.

And Guinevere was always going to be blackwashed, because she's a redhead in the books, and we all know what happens to redheads in media.

I'm surprised that Derfel and Arthur are allowed to be white seeing as they're the main heroes of the series.

It's also worth noticing that all the bad guys are still white. Funny that.

I strongly advise everyone to give this a wide berth, and go and read the original books.

Edit, because I'm still angry: fuck everyone involved in making this.

2nd edit: the actor playing Ligessac is also black. Yay diversity! Cunts.

Shutupshutupshutshutup. You'll give them ideas. Are we expecting this to run more than one season anyway?

I'll be honest, I was expecting worse. The lining of the coat is probably the pride flag though.

Still not watching it.

Jesus fucking Christ. They just can't have the attention on anything but themselves.

Everyone working at "UN Women" should be publicly flogged.

I hate you for reminding me that show exists.

That bitch would never have been allowed into Starfleet in the days of TOS.

After the total garbage that was ST:D and the insult that was Picard, does anyone care about Trek anymore?

It looks like they're trying to course correct with Strange New Worlds, but I'll personally never touch anything with Alex Kurtzman's name attached.

The only entertainment that was to he gained from nu-Trek was watching Mike and Rich on RLM slowly losing the will to live as they watched this trash.

I didn't mind the first Don't Breathe, but everything else from Fede Alvarez has been... uninspiring.

Also I have no idea who this girl is, but she was in Pacific Rim 2, so I'm inclined to dislike her automatically.

Pretty sure it's not the one you want it to be either.

Aaaand any potential interest that I had is gone. I really shouldn't get my hopes up for anything anymore, should I?

Oh no. The grifting tranny that tried to get an entire website taken down because he didn't like them pointng out his degeneracy, is worried about being shadowbanned. Get fucked Lucas.

Cope, seethe, dilate.

Seconded. A great book, and I don't see it mentioned nearly enough.

If they vandalised modern "art", how would you tell the difference?

SushiKenshi 22 points ago +22 / -0

I'm confused. Where's the "work" part of the workday?

Cool. I will await all the articles blaming white people for the movie not doing a billion dollars at the box office then.
