Peter came off as such an asshole for his comments and I agree with the people who are upset by this outcome. The problem is, Hollywood doesnt want to work WITH people with dwarfism to write decent characters that arent based strictly on stereotypes or caricatures. I cant remember if the OG snow white casted the characters in a stereotypical light or not, I just remember them all being named after their distinctive individual personalities. Its totally doable. Hollywood just doesnt want to do anything correctly, they dont want anybody influencing their shitty decisions and they never want to compromise with anyone on anything if it doesnt strictly benefit them. And this is one of the reasons we are headed to an AI entertainment universe so quickly. AI doesnt talk back, argue for proper representation or payment, and doesnt ever question anything the director/producer wants. And the fact that they refuse to do new things and are just remaking shit over and over and then complaining about having to add any validity or similarity to the origins of the things they are remaking is so weird.
