    I don’t know if the article mentions this, but she said she didn’t even watch it.

    Which makes it funny that she thinks they were only making fun of her looks, because they were overwhelmingly making fun of her for killing puppies.

        Ive got problems with gender/raceswapping for pure pandering reasons. If its at least brought up in the plot (doctor who can be who s/he likes, Miles Morales is a different spiderman etc) its fine.

        I mean I usually don’t actually care, but the concept does get a strong eye roll.

          For many characters the race does not matter - luckily - because they experience stuff everyone can experience. I think it is logical to change “unimportant” aspects of a character, if it helps production.

            Depends how realistic and “this is happening in our dimension of reality at this specific time” it is i guess. Maybe there wouldn’t be any reason to question why the founding fathers of America in a realistic gritty drama would be black women.

          Same, I was really happy when in the newer Spider-Man movies they revealed MJ didn’t stand for Mary Jane and she was in fact a different character.
