He’s an internet shill, probably doesn’t act like this in real life, too cowardly. But it is funny watching him follow the same pattern they all do. It’s like they hand out playbooks to these morons.

It's gonna be great when the show comes out and it's a big nothing burger and all the crying you guys are doing about how if James picks on a black Snape it HAS to be seen as racism comes to nothing.

Your predictive abilities are the worst in board history by light years so you’re probably wrong here as well. At least that’s what the percentages say.

For once, I'll turn my troll switch off when talking to you, because, genuinely, I'm curious on what your answer to this question will be.

Why is everything a blood feud for you on this message board?

I just talk rough. If we were in person it wouldn’t come off the same way, it just doesn’t translate to reading.

You’re batting .0000. Literally whatever you say the opposite happens. that’s why you don’t even believe anything you say at this point.

I said James wasn't gonna look like a racist in Snow white, rings of power, and the acolyte?

Sure thing, bud. You seem like a very happy person that has a super fulfilling life. I've never seen you complain. Congrats on that

“You disagree my my idiotic comments so you must be angry”

Another silly tactic from the playbook

It’s really their way of waving the white flag. They can’t defend their position so they start to muddy the waters and derail the topic.

gonna be tough to defend a position that didn't exist.

I said "It's gonna be great when the show comes out and it's a big nothing burger and all the crying you guys are doing about how if James picks on a black Snape it HAS to be seen as racism comes to nothing."

and he said I said the same thing about Snow White, Rings of Power, and The Acolyte.

Why would I have said that James picking on black Snape wasn't gonna be a big deal in any of those 3 things, much less thousands of other things?

A big reason we need moderators here. Corinthians, the poli-board crowd and countless alters (Blarny)ruin every thread. And most of them aren't even fans or interested in the movie/show they're arguing about. They just see "black actor" or watch a YouTube video and run here to highjack every thread

Actually it usually goes like this.

People comment on news
Corinthians and the defenders of a certain type jump in to attack comments
Then off the rails we go

Feeling over facts and you want to moderate? It’s usually the fascist that do, boy do you ever fit that bill.

i’ve said it before: snape is one of the only characters I have an issue with because his background is a social outcast and his history with James Potter, Sirius and Remus.

It sets up Harry’s dad to look like a racist.

I have read the books many times. I have encouraged my son to read the books. I have seen the movies. When a character that was fully developed and performed in a way such as Alan Rickman(RIP), a huge fundamental change such as switching the race is problematic.

I would say the same thing if they changed the character of Cho to a white girl. Or change the Weasleys to blonde hair. The books were created and gave description of those characters and then was brought to life on the big screen.

Yes I know there have been examples of characters appearances being changed but have they been for the better? Jack Reacher is a character described as 6 ft 4 250 lbs of muscle. Tom Cruise made 2 movies and people hated Tom for playing Reacher. Then Amazon got the rights and got someone who looked like Reacher. Look how more successful that is because how they got the character right.
