- JodieBenitez 3y agoCall it what you want, but I'm not gonna pay for content that is revised/censored to fit whatever current trend. I'm old enough that I've seen Darryl Hannah's butt on the silver screen as a youngster from the movie Splash and I won't pay to be lectured either. I wish media corps would consider their content like art works as much as entertainment and distribute them as is, not butchered. That includes "enhancements" like new dubbing and colors.
- effingwewt 3y agoI lost it when they removed the DnD episode of 'Community'. Then Boondocks. It is woke BS and I'm tired of the revisionist BS too It's far worse in anime/video games. A lot of localizer stories running rampant over it- understandably the original authors weren't happy about Western pandering and DEI/political views were being shunted into their stories. There's a reason the fansub community abhors anything from funimation et al. Canceled all subscriptions now, and I'm much happier.
- MrVandemar 3y agoYeah, someone elsewhere in the thread notes that Bluey was censored for the US market. Films and television are artefacts, they are a snapshot of a time, a place, a culture. I don't mind revisions as long as the original remains available. In short: “Han Solo shot first”.
