If there ever was a character that you cant change their race for the sake of the story, its Ciri


But why? she is descended from elves and a made up land in a fantasy novel. So how does her race play into that.

ashen haired, pale skin, freckled, green eyes...that's why...that is how is she is described by the creator...

if someone wants to make a story about minority elves fine, I will watch the movies, play the games and probably enjoy it...but not this one, it has already been determined

You racists are just the worst.

It is how she is described in the books and how she is depicted in the game.

You don’t care about that though. Only thing that matters to you is diversity and “get whitey off the screen”.

Reverse David Duke would be so very proud of you.

Conversely, why should Black Panther be black? He is descended from a fantastical line of kings in a fantastical country in a comic book - which is essentially a fantasy world. Surely the part could be played by a white man in a live action movie? Who cares about the source material.

And of course diversity is defined as having all characters with brown eyes, black hair, and brown skin. "Diversity."

But let's be honest, nobody can ruin the Dark Tower series better than King himself.
The movie was far worse than anything King did to wrap up the story.

Don't you guys think you might be taking a Netflix series a bit personally?

This is civil compared to what will happen if this actual BAME casting goes through.

This board has likely not seen what gamers are capable of in terms of raging about source material

This is dumb as shite to do and if they do it I likely won’t watch. What’s the point of reading the books and playing the games if they are just going to change shite to their liking regardless.

Slavic is pretty ethnic.

Really hoping this is a long troll job as that's par for course for Poland.

Writing himself into the story and the resolution to the MIB and the Crimson King were worse. At least the movie was less than two hours of disappointment. The series was 3 whole books of bad.
