...that white chick

Next they will make a biopic about John Wayne. They are just looking out for a black transgender Inuit to play the title role...
shareThat is pretty strange. Clearly Ann Boleyn was not Black.
shareSooooo what if is was a white woman who looked *nothing* like Anne Boleyn?
no one would give a shit right?
Exactly. Just like the white Norwegian actor playing Nelson Mandela in the upcoming biopic. Nobody's gonna give a shit. Right?
shareMost people don't know how Anne Boleyn looked, so casting an actress that doesn't look like her is not gonna break immersion. Casting a black chick or a 40 years old dude will break immersion, though, even if you don't know how she looked.
If we were talking about somebody widely known, let's say, Lincoln, then you need an actor that looks like him or at least that can look like him after the make-up.
a good point well made!
Anne, not Anna.
shareSince I always thought it was ANNE Boleyn, not Anna, I guess you are just talking out yer butthole.
shareEasily triggered as always...
shareEasily triggered as always...
What are you, anyway?
Uhm, not triggered like you, anyway. I just find your hypocrisy slightly amusing.
shareYeah, I find your crawling following of me is slightly disturbing but I guess I have to to accept it, like some creep who creeps me out, but it's within Legal means, so it's okay.
shareFollowing you??? Get a grip, when was the last time I even replied to you? I mostly ignore you because all you seem to do is whine about people having an opinion you don't like. I actually used to think you were okay until I discovered you're completely delusional.😑
shareAnd anyone who hasn't recognized how over-worked this constant invoking of the term "hypocrisy" has become likely should find a new avocation. Hope you enjoyed your Gotcha moment. I know I didn't.
share"this constant invoking of the term "hypocrisy""
Uhm, wah???
"Hope you enjoyed your Gotcha moment. I know I didn't"
No, I don't think you enjoy much in life...
So what the hell do You enjoy?
shareI enjoy discussing movies without people constantly using profanities against each other just because they have a different opinion.
shareWell gee, I guess we can agree on that !
shareUhm, you obviously don't...
shareIf you think I treat you like some Individual, you're mistaken.
You are just another example of Ass-Jackery that goes on the Interwebs.
So If you want to haunt me with oblique, semi-coherent jabs, have at it.
And as far as not Enjoying things? How about Artemisia? How about Dorothy Parker? How about Fast Food, and cheap-(ish) beer at a minor league baseball game? How about good old music some people might label as Classic Rock? How about Sex with Women? How about thoughtful discussions about the direction of the country versus Hitching Your Wagon to the rump Idiocy?
How about fresh coffee in the morning?
So invoke your tired old cliche about being "triggered." That's what YOU enjoy. Being an average Ass Jack internet ass hoop. What do YOU bring to the table?
Not an effing single thing.
Dear god, what kind of ridiculous rant is that??? You're truly unhinged. Best to step away from the internet for a while.😐
If anyone is guilty of "ass-jackery" it's you when you said the OP was talking out of his behind.
And no, I don't enjoy sex with women...🙄
So WHAT DO YOU ENJOY?
You claimed in your dumb ass fashion I don't enjoy anything.
So WHAT DO YOU ENJOY? Apparently it's being ass jack on the internet.
What else you got?
I already told you I enjoy discussing movies without people constantly using profanities against each other just because they have a different opinion. So NOT people calling others ass jack or dumb ass...
shareOh, and btw, don't waste your time on me for being "slightly" amusing.
Go Full On. Work On your Stand Up. Don't settle for "slightly"
You must have Many Other Much More Important Things To Do than to Troll me on MC
Jeezus effing krist !
"Oh, and btw, don't waste your time on me for being "slightly" amusing."
Hey, as long as the entertainment is free, I'm not complaining!
Since you enjoy the idea of "triggering" wtf do you expect from a rant?
Are you so stupid or shrewd as to think one would either ignore or react to your ass-jackery? Have your fun, I might play along, but you are the one who is exposing yourself for being an absolute prick here.
When I go in to virtual meetings, people smile and wait for me to Crack Wise. have some Good Natured Fun. Unlike your Ugly Style, where you are ugly negative for no apparent reason.
So eff you. I'm putting your dumb ass on ignore in the hope of saving my BP a couple points. And you're the sort of person who actually HOPES I might stroke out just because of your obnoxious attitude. Thanks a bunch for THAT !
"Since you enjoy the idea of "triggering" wtf do you expect from a rant?"
I said I found your hypocrisy slightly amusing. Your random rant I actually find quite sad.
"So eff you. I'm putting your dumb ass on ignore in the hope of saving my BP a couple points. And you're the sort of person who actually HOPES I might stroke out just because of your obnoxious attitude. Thanks a bunch for THAT !"
What are you even talking about???
If you want to put me on ignore, that's your perogative.🤷♀️
Indeed, it is.
And the word you are trying to use is "PRegorative," not "perogative."
Jus' saying', smarty pants.
"And the word you are trying to use is "PRegorative""
Nope, that's not it either. Just ask Bobby Brown.
The word is actually Prerogative.

Yes, indeed and not "PRegorative".
Jus' saying', smarty pants...
So I was confused till someone clarified here that Anne Boleyn was actually Caucasian and not black/mixed race.
IMO, changing historical representation this way is insane given we have caucasian actors and actresses that we don't need to do that.
What's next - A movie about African Slave Trade of the 1600s-1800s having slave owners are now black people and slaves as white people? Lol....
Although skin color should be irrelevant, it just seems egregious to cast this way. It's like having Gandhi being played by a Chinese guy or White or Black guy or Martin Luther King be a brown skinned Indian guy with thick Indian accent.
I mean, if this is a spoof, it is fine but if it is aiming for a historical period piece then it should be laughed out and rejected.
the end is nigh...
