>The Disney-owned network and Robbie’s LuckyChap Entertainment banner are teaming up for their first project with Australian production company Hoodlum and ABC Studios International: on a new 10-part series, retelling the work of the Bard from a female perspective. >A female creative team is taking point on the untitled project comprised of ten standalone episodes, each based on a classic Shakespearean tale that has been updated to comment on our modern, global society.
tfw we get "The Liberation of the Shrew" "Juliet and Romeo" "A Midsummer's Night Consensual Orgy" "Much Ado About Identity" "As She Likes It" "All's Well That Ends Men" "The Merry Spinsters of Windsor" "Othello"
Are they rewriting othello where the white woman doesn't pay the toll?

Shakespeare's works have been adapted millions of times in millions of different ways. There is literally nothing wrong with this. Don't like it don't watch it

I'm planning to start a little girl theater troupe. Y'know like how theater used to not have females but instead with all little girl casts. Like A Midsummer Night's Dream but all the characters played by little girls.

>I have no creativity whatsoever >So I will steal a man's work I don't even care about this degeneracy. Why don't they create something from the scratch anyways? Holy shit someone must gas them all.
>female spin But a lot of the famous plays have male and female leads. Are we going to get a Romeo and Juliet remake with the oh so realistic scenario of a woman making the initiative to ask out the guy? Because we all know that's what women like. A guy that's too afraid to ask her out.
>so unimaginative and not creative >have to steal a mans work in order to make it female oriented

Let me guess >women are literally perfect and have zero character flaws >women perform all the action unless that action could be considered evil, then a white man will do it >all men paired with the women are non-white >there's a scene in each adaption where a woman overpowers a man in a feat of strength
Asher Watson
This is also true. But it wasn't a huge social needle when decaprio did it or when a lot of the 90s romcoms were just retellings of the plays. They just did it and shut the fuck up about it.
Maybe there's nothing wrong with the movies and it's just """journalist""" ruining anyone's ability to enjoy things without attaching an agenda to it.

>we're gay, and they don't want us to be together It will be about that complicated. These people are disgusting, one note idiots.

do you need more proof that Hollywood is bankrupt when it comes to come up with something new?
Why don't thery write their own poetry? I have yet to see anything worthwhile that feminists create for society as a whole. Their whole movement is about appropriating male spaces, infiltrating them with women and ruining them for everybody.
Logan Wood
see this same applies to SJWs

>Not touching Titus Andronicus either If you were going to make any Shakespeare play about muh evil menfolk, might as well do that one.
Evan Carter
see this same applies to SJWs
Asher Nelson
Unless the media shills this to kingdom come and back again, this will end up being nothing. This is like the usual minority blast movie/show where it just ends up being heavy handed bullshit with little content.
Don't shill or meme it when it comes out. Just let it run its course quietly and it'll fizzle from existence. The main way to combat this is to give media and writers less ammo to shill their product. Just let this shit die. Please.
Jose Jackson
Prolly gonna make them both lesbians..
Easton Butler
You can dismiss this as interpretation but possibly within your lifetime the plays will be rewritten and no one will even suspect that they hadn't always been that way
This is the purpose of the promotion of degeneracy in all it's forms
They'll tell us that Shakespear was a black transvestite and we'll accept it
Connor Wilson
That's not possible without destruction of evidence. They can forward other dumb theories, but at the end of the day there is too much evidence of that not being the case, such as original folios of Shakespeare's work and old editions and busts pointing to the contrary. As long as evidence exists, which would be a horrific undertaking to destroy, it won't come to a pure Orwellian nightmare.
Alexander Smith
it already has
Brody Perry
>how to tell someone has no idea what they are outraged about >he thinks this type of reworks of plays is a new thing
perhaps learn the history of theater before you cry like a bitch about things.
you do know not everyone thinks everything on TV is real and reflects reality right?
Isaiah Phillips
Sweden is already destroying viking artifacts. The evidence can exist and just not be taught, the vast majority of people will never care to dig up the truth when they've been told certain things all their lives.
i can. it is from BBC. it is a fucking television show. AGAIN not everyone is so delusional and desperate to be a victim that they think everythiing on TV is real.
This is "educational" material produced for children numbnuts. They show it in schools.
Would you be okay if the Australian government made videos like this for Abbo kids showing whites always being in Australia playing didgeridoos and fighting emus?

>this random quote means things because it is "deep"
i had to spell it out for you because you are too dumb to understand it in the first place
if you make a historical movie it should have some sort of accuracy. You cant make a samurai movie and put a bunch of naitive americans. Its not a historical movie then.
This whole diversity thing is just their justification to alter our perseption of the past. Read 1984
Jeremiah Sanders
yes and they tend to vote for the ones who use fear mongering instead of inclusiveness.
AGAIN not everyone is so delusional and desperate to be a victim that they think every single thing they see in tv/movies is 100% based off reality.
only retards like you think that way. you know, the type that are obsessed with identity politics while the econ, ecosystem, and infrastructure crumble around them.
Gavin Murphy

and you are too dumb or clueless.
They push it through every way possible: - media (BBC) - archaeology ("muslim viking") - science (black Cheddar Man)
Jace Nelson
>this random quote means things because it is "deep"
George Orwell random, you dismiss the fictionalisation of "educational" "cartoons" as meaningless then dismiss one of the most influential authors and journalist as "random"
You people are the problem, no logical consistency and an opinion that is based on nothing more than the compulsion to appear politically "correct", can you not see the cancer that you are part of propagating or are you just morally weak and stupid because you are?
This is true, but it would help for people to actually know Shakespeare in the first place - which they don't.
Adrian Nelson
They're basically kids documentaries. You don't have a problem with programs which are marketed as educational documentaries for children, which are played in schools to young children as an introduction to these ideas completely misrepresenting historical reality?
Libs better start defending Australian Commie broadcasting agency.
Isaiah Roberts
abnd you are too retarded to see the bigger picture or you just doesnt want to
Also you cant make a historical movie about the romans and put hundreds of asians in it. That is beyond suspension of disbelief
Jacob Richardson
a random quote that means nothing in this context. because no one believes everything they see on TV is real past the age of 9 unless they are retarded and or delusional. >basically the hallmark of a person who has no real evidence besides his feels to support his views.
Ryder King
and you are too retarded to see the bigger picture or you just doesnt want to
Also you cant make a historical movie about the romans and put hundreds of asians in it. That is beyond suspension of disbelief
Evan Hall
asians in Rome
Sebastian Morales
naw. i just talk with other humans and know that most of them do not infact think everything they see on TV/movie that is "based of real life events" is 100% factual and historically accurate.
You've descended into nonsense, your cognitive dissonance is showing
I see a day when a child in a country his great grand parents were born in is called a racist for stating the fact that once his country was occupied almost entirely by white people, he will be called out a s racist and mocked by kids (like you) and punished for denying historical truth >a native child of his own land persecuted for speaking truth Welcome to the world you created, where truth is a crime
One day you will realise /pol was right again but it will be too late and the guilt will be your own
Lucas Scott
google suspension of disbelief. putting ethnicities that don't belong to the time period is beyond suspension of disbelief
Kayden Richardson
>still doesn't understand the difference between entertainment and educational programming hopless
only because you are faggot who is obsessed with identity politics. just like SJWs. normal people see it and dont give a fuck. because it does not matter, its just a movie/TV show.
Cooper Murphy
why do you faggots even bother with this shit? It's gonna flop like every propaganda piece they shoehorn. People don't watch TV or go to movies anymore >inb4 black panther run of the mill marvel trite with nigger sprinkled on top. Marvel makes money.
Isaiah Gray
you are a retard who doesnt even understand basic story telling
Nicholas Williams
>still does not understand it is the same shit. again, not everyone thinks every single thing they see from a TV is 100% real past the age of 9.
you are too dumb to understand basic storytelling and you are too dumb to understand what happens behind the scene. Those people who produce those shitty movies also spread those fake shit like "musllim vikings" and "Black Britons"
Nicholas Russell
see you have learnt something after all >what a wonderful world your future will be never forget it's what you wanted
you are advocating for educating children with educational material you know to be false >you still can't understand why that might be a bad idea
Thomas Wilson
from the point of representing the history in a accurate way this shit would be unacceptable
and children WILL think this shit is accurate
Adam Rogers
#Metoo for #Metoo Shitlord & Cleopatra Two Lesbians of Academia The Tampon
Nathaniel Reyes
and they know it to be false or will learn it to be false as they age and learn that not everything in movies/TV is not 100% accurate.
not everyone is so simple that they think everything they see is real.
Nathaniel Howard
not if every historical evidence was changed.
It starts with media how people view the past because most people don't read in a history book and BBC knows it
Samuel Ross
so the purpose of school is not to educate children with correct factual information but to entertain them with fictionalised depictions of history so they can realise it was all rubbish when they get older, brilliant! You are an educational genius, you should be teaching all the worlds children perhaps we should do the same with maths, geography, science I mean why not?
>education is entertainment
I get it now thanks
>congrats on being the stupidest cunt of the month
>he literally thinks this is the only stuff that is shown or taught to kids though out their school years. wew lad. your critical thinking skills are lacking faggot. delusional, many such cases. sad!
William Cruz
>again, not everyone thinks every single thing they see from a TV is 100% real past the age of 9. This is an educational cartoon. Those are typically for people under the age of 9. When you tell your children lies repeatedly, they believe them.
Zachary Morgan
again. they get past that age and learn more about history from higher grades. most of them grow up. than there are people like you. the type who think TV is real and demand everyone else thinks that way as well.
Jaxson Brooks
you have the brain of a xlug and I hope your mother dies in her sleep tonight
i start to have doubts that you ever saw a school from the inside
You do realize that we watched movies in history class right? Those movies are a compact version of the facts we know from the time period. Not 100 percent accurate but the most of it
Isaiah Rivera
>and learn more about history from higher grades Yeah, that's where comes in. >archaeology ("muslim viking") >science (black Cheddar Man) Many classes in the education system are changing what they present to promote diversity or inclusiveness or what have you. By telling students that the Vikings were Muslims or that the Cheddar Man was black, not only is it taking up space in the lesson plan that could be used to explain things like the impact of Vikings on western civilization or how the Cheddar Man may have lived, it's presenting diversity as equally important to facts. Incidentally, how would you feel if there were a larger focus in American History on African-American Soldiers fighting for the South in the Civil War?
Connor Wilson
>Australian Stopped reading right there.
Evan Fisher
yea we watched movies all the time. i in no way thought Braveheart was accurate to real life events. same goes from Gladiator and Knights Tale. because im not a delusional faggot who is desperately looking to fight for something that i make up things to be outraged about.
you want to adapt it great. just don't adapt it for political agenda pushing bullshit. but rather do it because you want to adapt it for art, not "hurr durr i has a vagina viva la feminism! DEATH TO THE PATRIARCHY! DEATH TO MEN! DEATH TO MASCULINITY!"
google suspension of disbelief. Those movies bend historical accuracy a bit for plot convenience not break it completely
Carter Anderson
Amazingly
>you have no problem with fiction being taught as education but you do have a problem with >fiction being used to illustrate truths about the world we live in now or will be living in should we continue the we are going
is is some sort of assburgers that you can't differentiate between documentary and entertainment
