me about my ocs in my head: engaging personality, developed backstory, relatable goals and interests, unique and well researched abilities
someone: so tell me about ur oc
me: *already crying* shes a lesbian and i fukcigng lov her,,
you’re all shitty writers
Is it normal for people to get so emotionally attached to characters they made up? I’m honestly asking.
People get attached to anything they put lots of hard work into. But if the only trait you can think of is their sexuality your character is one boring motherfucker.
oh please for the love of god, get your head out of your ass and let people appreciate things.
People can appreciate or enjoy whatever the hell they want. But fact remains that if a character’s only notable trait is their sexuality that character is boring as shit.
you really???? can’t????? read???? what????? op?????? said?????

Hey! Consider this and also fuck off!
Sometimes LGBT people are really excited to have or make a charachter for that, and so they’re really excited to share with a friend that they’ve worked the community into their universe.
Same way it’s cool to have a deaf superhero or a non-stereotyped african american video game charachter. Obviously they’re more than just their representation aspect, but have you considered that some people are exceptionally excited about that aspect? And that it’s notable to them?
Did you even read the damn post? What do you mean only thing they can think of? The post is literally about how the OC has a detailed and intense background and design. Did you miss that part because? Huh? The post is just about the charachter’s lesbian sexuality being eagerly shared. Not that the charachter is ONLY a lesbian.
Next time you deside to log on to tumblr dot com, please bring your reading skills. That, and the knowledge that OP is an actual person. And your words have an impact.
Fucking amazing, people forget stuff even about their own creations especially when they get excited talking about their creations to other people, and only remember ‘They’re like me!’ Excitement about a character is such a mind-blowing concept.
Take your head and attempt to extract it from up your ass. Maybe your reading comprehension might be able to progress beyond the level of my five-year-old niece.
How is this an amazing cast? There are literally only two actors out of this entire cast that are actually great actors, I have never even heard of the rest of these people.
I feel like you are only saying “Its an amazing cast” Because there are so few white people.
Angela Basset: Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner, with enough award nominations/wins to necessitate her own wikipedia page for awards alone. Lupita Nyong’o: Academy Award winner. Chadwick Boseman: Joseph Jefferson Award nominee; already showed his stripes as Black Panther in Captain America: Civil War. Sterling K. Brown: Emmy Award Winner for The People Vs. OJ Simpson and actor in the Golden Globe nominated television show This Is Us Florence Kasumba: Already had a bit part in Captain America: Civil War; was praised by many critics for her one scene being a scene-stealer Forest Whitaker:
^ that’s all from a single movie. Danai Gurira: Tony-award winning writer, plays Michonne on The Walking Dead, one of the most popular series out there today Michael J. Jordan: Featured actor in popular shows like Friday Night Lights, The Wire, and Parenthood in addition to frequent appearances on film. Daniel Kaluuya: The star of Get Out, which currently boasts a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and has been in the press pretty much constantly upon release. He was also featured in an episode of the acclaimed series Black Mirror. John Kani: An actor, playwright and director; while he hasn’t had as much work in America, he’s prolific enough to have a theatre in Newtown Johannesberg named after him.
Winston Duke and Letitia Wright have fewer credits to their names (the former has a consistent role in the well-received Person of Interest; the latter has been cast in Black Panther and Ready Player One in what is hopefully the beginnings of a bright career), but I don’t mean to belittle their successes by leaving them out, and those who aren’t as well known SHOULD be given a chance by big franchises. Lesser known names tend to get big after starring in Marvel movies. I sure as hell didn’t know who Chris Evans or Chris Hemsworth were prior to their flagship titles.
But even putting aside how important it is that this film is led by black creators, just because you don’t know these people doesn’t mean that they’re not critically acclaimed in their field, who haven’t put in the work. They have, and they’ve been recognized for it. Consider checking out some of their work before you decide whether or not only two of them are great actors.
