Conservatives want the LGBTQ community dead. Corporations just want money. Hmmm I wonder which one is better... I love watching losers cry about colours whether it be the colours of the rainbow or the colour of a fictional characters skin. Just a hateful bunch in general with nothing better to do with their lives other than be mad about anything they can be.

What about changing real historical characters skin colours?

Historical characters should be portrayed accurately. I dont think anyone with an ounce of intelligence disagrees. Fictional characters looking different literally doesn't matter.

Nothing wrong with portraying historical characters accurately. The point a lot of people are not getting is that it’s also fine to not do that if you choose not to. Everyone has enough of a mental capacity to understand the fantastical or unrealistic aspects of any media they consume, but for some reason they can't get past this one, strangely.

It's just... who the hell cares? What's it to you? Nobody is being intentionally misled here. It's just an stylistic choice. Only way it bothers you is if you are a megapurist stickler, and the VAST MAJORITY of people are not.

Movie gun silencers have been violating the laws of physics for the last 80 years and nobody has said a thing, but Denzel Washington portraying a fictional european king is where we draw the line and start complaining? Is it any wonder this raises suspicions?
