They don't seem to realise that when people say they want to see themselves represented on screen most people truly believe they are far better looking and smarter than they actually are.

If you cast kids who look and act like normal, plain, boring, stupid, selfish people all that happens is now no one can relate to them.

I agree Rosamund Pike is amazing.

They are going to have to do the whole rest of the series from her character's perspective to make it work unless they recast.

Star Trek Discovery turned into LGBTQ+ Trek. It drips with gay to the point of being down right obvious they are pandering to queers. I turned Paramount Plus off after the mid season hiatus.

I wish they would take the “Star Trek” name off.

Did Amazon ruin Wheel of Time...?

Yes.

They are doing it on purpose because they must destroy the hero archetype so that the normies don't start having aspirations of being heroes, seizing the means of political power from evil men, maintaining generational wealth, having above a 6th grade education, having an identity based on developed knowledge, skills and abilities (as opposed to corporate approved identities that must be tethered to race, genital usage and spending habits).

Part of it is wokeism, but wokeism is merely a virtue signaling facade of totalitarianism.

They didn’t ruin it alone. They trusted Brandon shitterson and his go broke wokers to guide them.

Amazon definitely ruined WoT and now they're going to ruin LoTR with more woke casting.

Yeah Amazon went full woke to the detriment of the already so-so WoT story. It's fine, let them lose money and live the mantra, go woke and go broke.
