Midwest Chick's Place

 You may or may not have heard of the brouhaha surrounding the live action version of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ that Disney has decided to do since they are incapable of coming up with new ideas.

Disney’s version is looking more like Latina Chick and the Seven DEI companions.  Seriously.  

Here’s a picture:

The girl playing ‘Snow White’ is the same one who played ‘Maria’ in the remake of West Side Story.

It might be that part of the reason that they only hired one little person to play a dwarf is because Peter Dinklage, who has: appointed himself King of The Dwarfs, doesn’t want any competition for dwarf acting parts, or grokked the part of Tyrion Lannister a bit too much, pitched a hissy about the remake and actually hiring *gasp* dwarfs.

“Take a step back and look at what you’re doing there. It makes no sense to me. You’re progressive in one way, but then you’re still making that f***ing backward story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together? What the f*** are you doing, man? Have I done nothing to advance the cause from my soapbox? I guess I’m not loud enough.”

“Peter Dinklage spoke up about this, and that was my issue,” Postl told Morgan. “He had in the past no issue cashing checks that were made for dwarf roles like ‘Elf’ and all of that. Yes he blew away the barriers when he did his his roles that weren’t necessarily made for a dwarf but the ‘Elf’ role was made for a dwarf, that check cleared just fine.”

“It just doesn’t sit right with me,” Postl added. “What gave him the voice for all of our community?” he then asked.

As a side note, Hugh Grant, who is definitely NOT a dwarf, is playing an Oompa Loompa in the re-re-remake of Willy Wonky and the Chocolate Factory, which illustrates how hard it is for actual dwarfs to land parts in Hollywood.  And Dinklage is not helping that situation whatsoever.

I think that Postl should throw down with Dinklage in a cage match.  Pay per view–it’ll be a money maker for sure.

The winner (since Postl is a former WWE champion so it’ll be him) gets all parts for dwarfs in the future (since apparently Dinklage thinks they are… ahem… beneath him).  Disney also has to hire six more dwarfs for the movie and give them proper screen time.

On the flip side, considering Woke Disney is making this, it might be best for Postl to not have his name associated with it.
