That's very small minded of him maybe his brain is tiny because he is so small someone give the wee man a hug and a glass of warm milk to settle his tummy and make him sleepy when he wakes up from his nap maybe he'll be less cranky!
Keep on smiling!

¿What you wanna bet that Peter's nickname as a kid was
Dinky?
I would imagine that among other dwarves, it still is. ¿Kinda like Nigga?

he should return every penny he's made from GoT
When he was cast as a little person role in Lord of the Rings or in a Game of Thrones or in Elf or this that or the other thing… those checks cashed just fine. Now he wants to be progressive? Come on man

Disney announced that instead of dwarfs they will be replaced with a fry pans, toaster oven, a waffle maker, a pen and pencil set, a book and other various inanimate objects which will hopefully offend no one.
Wait. I just got a late breaking announcement.
OK the book will offend some right wing Republicans who are nervous it might be a banned book of erotica that none of them would ever read or allow so the project is shelved. Again.

Maybe they'll still make the movie, but the dwarfs will be digital? Or they'll change the dwarfs to cats or something - whatever offends Dinklage the least, since apparently his is the only opinion that matters to Disney.

I hope this isn't the case. I think this might be a good movie.

As long as they don't get rid of my midget wrestling and dwarf tossing watching hobbies, it's all good.

Amen, Bro!
MAGA! FAFO! Schrodinger's Cat walks into a bar, and doesn't. Dumbocraps: evil people who celebrate murder.

Boy, I dunno why he is being such a dwarfus about this.
Shouldn't he stand tall for his fellow shorties?
Making such a big deal of a little thing!

Dinklage (per the article I posted earlier in this thread) thinks the racial recasting of Ms. White is "progressive."

What kills me is that the part of Snow White was going to be played by a hispanic or latino actress.
It is Snow White. Not Snow Brown. Ewwwwwww!
May as well hire a ***** and call it Snow Yellow. Another ewwwwww!

Privilege segues into entitlement and narcissism due to success. This appears to have lead Dinklage to distortion and typical liberal thinking lunacy as though they are above everyone else and think they can represent the free-thinking world.
His "woke" casting in Cyrano also appears to have distorted a classic tale just to appear relevant and progressive. Cyrano is a character of classic literature with a big nose, a gifted poetic wordsmith and a splendid swordsman, he wasn't a diminutive figure pining away to be tall that then might stand a chance over his lustful coveting…
Norman! What did you put in my tea?

Yeah, the king dwarf comment was funny.
Here's another quote from the article:
If a dwarf just dreams of being an actor and in a Disney film then this role is made for them. You're taking these roles of not just one but seven little people away because you feel like we have to make progression?
'It's so stupid, it's just dumb. You're doing worse for the community than better.'
'The story is now "Snow White and the Seven Normal Sized People." It's Snow White and the Seven Dwarves."
'Also, they all each have their own individual characteristics, they look after Snow White, they're the heroes. This is a good thing!'

I swear, those and that article all read like things you would see in The Onion.
I really got a kick out of this quote!
'Peter Dinklage is the biggest dwarf actor probably of all time but it doesn't make him king dwarf,' Dylan Postl, who played Hornswoggle the leprechaun in WWE for 10 years and has also acted in The Muppets, told DailyMail.com.

¿Snow White and the Seven Miners?
Better not call them names like Dopey and Grumpy.

This was his criticism:
Game of Thrones actor Peter Dinklage has taken aim at Disney for what he called its “****ing backwards” forthcoming live action adaptation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Dinklage, who stars in Joe Wright’s new film, Cyrano, accused the studio of double standards by attending to racial diversity in its cast but falling back on other damaging stereotypes.
“I was a little taken aback by [the fact] they were very proud to cast a Latina actress as Snow White,” Dinklage told podcaster Marc Maron, “but you’re still telling the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”.
Dinklage, who has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia, continued by saying Disney should have stepped back and reassessed the project.
“You’re progressive in one way but you’re still making that ****ing backward story of seven dwarves living in the cave. What the **** are you doing, man? Have I done nothing to advance the cause from my soapbox? I guess I’m not loud enough.
“They were so proud of that, and all love and respect to the actress and the people who thought they were doing the right thing but I’m just like, ‘What are you doing?’”
Dinklage added that had a “cool, progressive spin” been put on the fairytale, he would have been “all in”.
Disney has since responded in a statement. “To avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film, we are taking a different approach with these seven characters and have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community. We look forward to sharing more as the film heads into production after a lengthy development period.”
The remake stars Rachel Zegler, fresh from her acclaimed debut in West Side Story, with Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. Directed by Marc Webb, the film is said to be an adaptation and an extension of the 1937 Disney animated classic – itself taken from a Brothers Grimm story.
An updated version, Snow White and the Huntsman, starring Kristen Stewart, met with a backlash on release a decade ago after the dwarves were played by actors of average height – including Bob Hoskins and Ian McShane – whose faces were digitally transmuted on to small bodies.
Aside from central roles, casting on the new Disney film, including that of the dwarves, has not yet been announced.

I don't know. Peter Dinklage and others are saying it would be offensive, so I wondered what you thought.
Check out these headlines:

Peter Dinklage is right: a live-action Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a fundamentally awful idea
Peter Dinklage is not the only one angered by Disney's new "Snow White"

Yeah, why not? Short actors need jobs too.
