Been a half century since I read Tolkien. I don't recall if it was in the Lord of the Rings or the Silmarillion but there were extensive descriptions of the various races and peoples and the the author had a specific vision as to Aragorn and his sires. Could he have been seen as otherwise, yes, but he was not. Do I really care how he is concieved now, no. Skin color has nothing to do with his character and it is his character which makes Aragorn who he is.

My grandson identifies as a dump truck. Also a bear, a football player, an eagle, a pirate and a shark. Sometimes he also barks like a dog and roars like a lion.

Well I am happy for you that your daughters and their friends chose to spend time with you. Just struck me as highly unusual to the point of incredulity that twentysomethings would choose to go to a Disney movie with their Pops, but who am I to say? Maybe they were nostalgic for their youth and maybe you all bonded over the original and they wanted to see the remake. Disney has certainly cashed in on that desire recently with remakes of the Lion King, Mulan, and the new Mary Poppins not to mention their Broadway shows. I took my daughter to Disney world more than once as a little girl. We saw all the Disney movies for a time. We saw Lion King on Broadway and the Little Mermaid off Broadway (it sucked). My daughter danced as Simba. She put Disney away once she became an adolescent. She would now have no interest in going to this with me. We do other things. My incredulity may well say more about me than it does about you. Or I may think you are a liar making this up to try to prove some point

Just struck me as odd and unlikely. Its not for me to tell you how to relate to your young adult daughters.

Jordan wads hyped early because he could jump out of the gym ala Ja Morant now. It was not until he developed a reliable 15 foot jumper from the elbow and he bulked up his shoulders noticeably taht he started winning. That coincided with the arrival of Pippen, but was not due to the arrival of Pippen.

Well in the coming remake of Roots Kunta Kinte will be played by Justin Beiber, so there is that. He nailed the audition with his improve of: "Toby, or not Toby, that is the question".

You took your daughters who should be graduating from college by now to see the little mermaid on a holiday weekend? They went to a movie with their dad instead of being out with their friends or at least at a family BBQ?

Misogynistic? Wndy Peffercorn was asking for it, taunting those young boys by lotioning and oiling, oiling and lotioning. Squints simply had had enough!

With a surname of Singh I presume him to be of Indian descent. While camels were indiginous to a very samll region in India i don't believe the common slur for them is camel jocky but rahter dot head. Whether taht applies at all to indian-americans (Not American indians) i do not know. It is as inaccurate as describing this Kraut/Mick mutt as a pollack or a dago. It is inaccurate.

Pretty clearly showing your lack of education. Kittens do not poop rainbows, unicorns do.

I think back then we were just hoping for a bit of thigh and cleavage from both Jane and the Amazon Queen.

Maybe the little Mermaid, being an acquatic creature, shares chromatophore capabilities with octopus and nautilus and she can change hues for camophlage purposes. Maybe one day she is a big-eyed redhead pretty clearly underage, and the next a mulatto chick a bit closer to the age of consent. If so I wonder, can she do Salma Hayek from say 30 years ago?

So a male fighting for the Amazons. Pretty sure there was a Tarzan movie back in the 60's that did this. Tarzan and the Amazons, 1945 starring Johnny Weismuller

Being as the Little Mermaid was written by Hans Christian Andersen she was written as essentailly Danish. is it not cultural appropiration to change her genetics?
