I thought they were just slavicish. I know Romanian is different but the archetypical gypsy in my mind is a black haired slavic woman.

You’re probably correct, however I believe Disney and everyone else knows this and are choosing to cast black actors in order to claim the movie failed due to racism and not a weak script.
The Little Mermaid has changed so much since Hans Christian Anderson it cannot really be considered Danish anymore.
Yes they would and rightfully so. I dislike the casting of the movie, it just so happens the movie was bad enough on its own.
Same with Samuel L. Jackson playing Nick Fury or whatever The Boys is doing with characters. When the adaptation is good no one really cares.
I have a feeling Hollywood companies intentionally do this to stir discourse and interest in the film when they know the script is weak. You never hear about these things when the movie is good, only when it’s the Ghostbusters reboot or The Little Mermaid.
No I think people would have been more angry if they got someone Asian but not Tibetan to play the character. Changing an Asian Male character to a White Woman makes it more obvious and direct.
True, but it is not done in a very genuine way. Each role had people complaining about the changes, the only real difference is the few times a white character is casted black the movie ends up being bad anyways.
I suppose, then again it appears the main reason race was changed is to increase star power in a prominent role. Which is not the case in The Little Mermaid, as Halle Bailey is not a star. Doesn’t matter much now since the movie is bad.
Except the canucks
Something something Danish folklore means white mermaids.
Most people realized it was done mostly to skirt the Chinese market. I think the major problem with the other groups is the lack of major starpower. I don’t think I can even name a Romani actress.
I remember reading something like that but not why they ended up switching the date. I assume because the factions weren’t around yet and they wanted the BoS, but I never saw a dev or writer confirm it.
I partially believe they didn’t want to introduce too much beyond what Tod Howard outlined in case the next game takes place in the new ruins of California and it all gets retconned. More than likely Howard just told them Shady Springs is destroyed and the NCR collapsed so that’s all they wanted to show. New Vegas being in supposed ruin is the bigger point that opens up a lot of questions.
Again, deep diving into the lore, the NCR was on the decline already. We see it in New Vegas. The Bear was bloated and encumbered itself with pointless wars of expansion and major corruption. The Boneyard Seperatists were gaining traction, and other parts of the country were in economic distress. The Mojave Territory is simultaneously over and underfunded, and is being used as a distraction from the major internal problems. If Shady Sands was nuked in a non-NCR ending to New Vegas I could see every city rising up and forming their own states.
In lore? The East Coast was struck a lot more compared to the West Coast, there are many more population centers and important strategic assets to bomb compared to the East. Therefore the people were set back much farther and rebuilding civilization takes a lot longer. Also, the lack of a unified government forming and rebuilding caused major delays in rebuilding on the East. The NCR really jumpstarted the West Coast’s recovery. The closest we can see in the East was the Provisional Comminwealth Government but that was swiftly destroyed by the Institute and all that remains are small settlements.
In Real Life? Bethesda is bad at dates and times and wanted to do funny things, it’s the same reason why food is on store shelves for the player to find and every ammo box still has stuff for you.
I thought they were the same thing except realtors were a specific group you had to pay to be in and have a good record.
Ik it’s not, but the only place you see it regularly is 4chan.
Kekw is deeper internet slang than most people are willing to discover. Kek is like a giggle or snort, not a full laugh but a chuckle. The w modifier means this is a win for them, so kekw is a chuckle about a good situation. If you want more info you can ask someone on 4chan, they are super helpful and nice to new members of the community.
Those artists and programmers had about six years to find different jobs in the industry, I have zero sympathy for the ones that stuck around and did not see the writing on the wall.
