I just watched the LOTR trilogy for the first time and thought it was very good in general, but I have just one question,,,Why didnt they just hire black actors to play the fucking Orcs?

White people will make actors sit through 15hrs of make-up if it means not hiring some black dudes..fuck this shit
>>
kill yourself to death you gosh darn nigger
>>
>>66579809
most of the orcs were played by Maori Pacific Islanders, not white people

>>66579809
thats not an orc, phamily
>>
They're wearing a fucking mask either way, so it doesn't particularly matter.
>>
>>66579809
Most black people in America aren't dark skinned enough to literally be black like that, they're more of a brown. You'd need make up anyway.

Oh wait I see now this thread is meant to be like epic or something right? /b/ tier.

fuck off /pol/

>>66579809
Anon they were done by Maoris, it was filmed in New Zealand. Dumb niggers weren't imported there.

the only correct reply

What is the point of (You)r thread?

The total lack of niggers has got to be one of the best things about LOTR.

It wasn't but if you're going to bring in extra's your not going to ship them all the way from Blackistan or America. House them and feed them, when you can just have locals do it.

>>66580299
by your logic this should apply to everyone on set- cast and crew
>>
Good b8, you somehow merge a racist post, while also berating whites as being racist. Very well crafted.
>>
>>66580406

how is that logical

you need to hire far more extras than any other job on set, and absolutely none of them have to be particularly skilled
>>
>>66579893
They'd be white at the oscars though
>>
>>66580466
blacks cant be racist asshole
its also funny how "racist" is your 2016 boogeyman
>>66580500
>extras dont need to be skilled
its apparent how you've no idea how movies and tv shows work
>>
>>66580541
What are extra's talents? Because literally anyone can sign up to be an extra in productions, so it doesn't seem to me that they possess any particular talent at all.
>>
>>66580541
>blacks cant be racist

ayy lmao
>>
>>66579809
Should have got some of them Abos from Australia..can't even tell the difference
>>
>>66580611
so literally anyone could sign up to be the orc in the OP pic?
or the orcs with "speaking parts"?
because thats what im talking about, not space-fillers
>>
Niggers facial structures are instantly recognizable
If they got a bunch of big lipped, big nosed, afro haired, monkey jawed jigaboos to play orks it would have ruined the vibe
>>
>>66580729
Well then what you're talking about is an actor, not an extra. Extras are literally the space fillers and background people.

>oh, you made a schematics mistake so now I can ignore the actual argument which is being discussed
>>
>>66580541

this is definitely bait

almost anyone who is otherwise generally hireable can get a job as an extra – there's no way you honestly think that every random passerby in a movie is a vetted and well-compensated actor
>>
>>66580855
where did I even imply anything close to that? read the OP

my point is you have black-looking characters and STILL hire white actors to play them

tolkien and jackson are really suspicious at this point
>>
>>66580851

>no one will notice if I move goalposts and then act victimized about it

are you literally a girl irl
>>
>>66580907

ugh don't tell me that you're OP now I know it's bait and it isn't fun any more
>>
>>66580851
>Schematics mistake
I think you mean semantics, bud.

What's your argument again? That the orcs should have been played by black people? Why? They'd be covered by a mask and make-up as well as skin paint anyway. It would make no difference. Why bother when you have a shitload of Maori people who have the correct build and physicality for the roles at your doorstep?
>>
>>66580918
you moved the goalposts
>hey you said extras while you meant actors with really minor parts haha! lets talk about this instead!
>>66580974
stop replying then
"this is bait"is hardly an argument
