    You can get the whites of your eyes tattooed but I'm not sure about the iris.

    It's more like dyeing your eyeball than tattooing it, but yeah, it can be done.

    That sounds horrifying

    Skrein is playing Ben Daimio, who is of Japanese descent, so...yeah

    That is extremely disappointing. I can't believe Mignola would sign off on that.

    I got my moviepass card today. The app says no theatres found whenever I look it up. I was told that I had to activate the card. I had to do it through a desktop because I couldn't do it through the app. App still says no available theatres no matter what zip code I use. I contact support and apparently got a reply. I clicked onto the notification and it took me to the section in the app where you write the support message.

    Really fucking disappointed right now. I don't know what the deal is but this shit is broke for me right now. Boohiss

    That doesn't sound like the kinda thing he would typically control in a movie contract deal.

    I don't know if that was me no matter how I felt I probably wouldn't want to publicly shit in a young actor's biscuit tin.

  • TubeTube Registered User admin
    Like what was he going to say in response to someone saying how amazing he is? "GET OUT OF MY MOVIE, CRACKER"

  • Rorshach KringleRorshach Kringle that crustache life Registered User regular

    Polite whitewashing is still whitewashing.

    He could very easily say "Ed Skrein is a talented actor but I am disappointed that a Japanese-American man like Ben Daimio is being played by a white man."

    That doesn't insult Skrein at all and addresses the issue

    Not saying anything isn't being polite

    So it turns out that the American Lit course I'm taking this semester is actually a Film Noir course, where the syllabus is literally just a list of 15 movies, all from pre 1955.

    I am very, very, down for this.

    It's like if a character is anything lighter than an arbitrary shade of brown, it's open season for white actors to play them.

    And the further you go back in time, the darker that shade is.

    Maybe he will say that. Maybe he hasn't done it yet, and didn't feel like that was the right time. It's super easy to shit on the decisions of public figures who have to put a lot of thought into the ramifications of what they might say.

    Mignola is heavily involved with the production and has said in interviews that he is actively a part of this film unlike the last 2 and has been commenting on every piece of news

    If he is saying nothing but HAPPY TO HAVE YOU HERE, that's his stance on the subject

    And I don't know why we have to give him the benefit of the doubt on a hypothetical future statement that he has given no indication of making

    And I don't know why we always have to rush to shit on people just because they didn't do exactly what we think we would do if we were in a situation that we have zero experience with and not a great deal of knowledge of.

    I don't know, fuck it, I don't like Ed Skrein or Mike Mignola and have no interest in this movie so I guess I'll stop taking side bets in races that I have not entered a dog into.

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    It seems like a perfectly valid response to say "man I am really disappointed in Mignola".

    No one is, like, fucking calling for his head or burning their Hellboy books. It's surprising given he created the character and he made a public statement on the film, that he's actually involved with, and didn't address it.

    Mike Mignola is one of my favorite comics creators ever

    I'm not getting rid of my Hellboy comics over this, but it is pretty disappointing and I don't think it's overreacting to say that!
