Approved. Fucking black people

wtf did I just watch

does this show have gods that arent european? i want them to explore eastern gods or something or are they too OP?

Fuller is aware that retards like you who care about that won't watch his show anyway.

>>82253940
of course, almost every god should show up at some point, though for instance poo in loo kali-ma is waay stronger then the american one because shes got so many more worshipers in pooland

>>82253940
They do. It's the American Continent and the USA, there will be a lot of diverse gods in it.

he's black in the book

Aw OP, I think you have the mentality of an old god and you should be assimilated soon.

Not enough slutty gods with big tits, but it still seems pretty cool.

He's half black, half white in the book you idiot!

>>82254360
Half black, half white. Gaiman modeled him off of Dwayne Johnson, no joke.

>>82254227

Me. But given this:

http://www.avclub.com/article/neil-gaiman-why-he-asked-american-gods-cut-blowjob-254491

I'm not surprised they changed his character. They don't understand anything about his character at all

>>82254409
Mad respect to Gaiman, knew where to throw his weight around. Flabbergasted that the guys behind this can be so clueless.

>>82254057
But these Gods are only American incarnations, their incarnations back in their homelands are separate. Doesn't Shadow travel to Europe to meet the original Wednesday in the epilogue?

>>82254409
>>82254445

I think part of their problem is, essentially, they're hoping to make this something of a Counter-Game of Thrones: highly regarded literary source, lot of action, lot of characters, etc.

And no doubt some studio head said "Well then, is there a lot of sex in it?"

"Uh...not particularly?"

"Then find a place to put some."

Just a theory, of course.

>>82254568
If they really want to tackle racism as an issue, that's fine. They can do that, its all about delivery, but they neglected to included any of the character building scenes in the prison and instead included three different scenes of some neo-nazi looking people waving a noose at shadow menacingly from afar. The appealing part of that book was that shadow was such a phenomenally chill and likable dude, and that seems to be the one they they managed to really screw up.

>>82253851

Just wikipedia'd the book, is /tv/ ready for The Technical Boy?

>The Technical Boy – New god of computers and the Internet. He is adamant that the new gods should prevail over the old gods. As the personification of the internet, he resembles the stereotype of a fat, arrogant, basement-dwelling internet poster, who dresses like characters from The Matrix because he thinks it makes him look cool. He looks like a teenager with bad acne, because he is young even compared to the other new gods (though he has quickly become one of the most powerful of them). Other characters derisively call him "the fat kid".

>>82253940

An african deity called Anansi was fairly important in the book, so were some egyptian ones.

>>82254083

Implied to be mixed, I think. A few people asked him if he had "nigger blood" or something but not unambigously black.

>>82254807
that was the skinny kid at the end of the first episode, they changed him up to seem like a more modern silicon valley caricature.

>>82254817
>Anansi
Like that other book he wrote.

>The appealing part of that book was that shadow was such a phenomenally chill and likable dude, and that seems to be the one they they managed to really screw up.

It also seems to be what the story was mainly about, to me anyway. I can't wrap my head around all of this because his personality was the driving force of all of the character interaction and self-reflection in the story. Without that it's a completely different story

yes and no. Gaimen is fairly left wing, but that doesn't make it bad. The problem is not liberals. The problem is people who try to sell you on liberalism. People who write stories as soapboxes. Go check out the book. Its not a sales pitch, its not a soapbox, about racism or immigration, although some of those thing may appear as themes, its a story about a dude going through a surreal crazy fucked up world.

All right, for those of you shitters who haven't read the book:

>Shadow
He's ambiguously brown. A prison guard asks if he has nigger blood in him and he says he doesn't know, which (if he was answering straight) won't make sense if his mother was black. An Indian (Native American, not poo-in-loo) girl asks if he has Indian blood in him and he again says he doesn't know.

>Technical Boy
In the book he's a fat kid who wears a long coat with sunglasses like Neo from Matrix because Gaiman thought that's how Internet basement dwellers dressed back when he wrote the book.

>Bilquis/Queen of Sheba
She's supposed to be a gorgeous babe. Not this abomination we got.

I don't understand the vikings, why did they mutilate themselves and then killed each other.
Such a self destructive behaviour.

The queen of Sheba became beautiful after feeding. I thought that was a nice touch

Wouldn't be so sure about that, if I remember correctly, the chapters she was in were written from her point of view and she never seemed very sane so I never took the descriptions she made of herself for granted. The point, I think, is that she can attract whomever she want because of her very nature. And anyway she seems younger at the end of the sex scene, she was just in a bad shape before she "absorbed" that poor guy.

Why do so many mentally unstable women love 'American Gods' and Neil Gaiman in general? I now consider "Gaiman is my favorite author" to be a huge red flag. Do the books warp their brains or are they already messed up and that's why they're attracted to his work?

you, sir, are a Patrician. It's one of my top 5 books. Unfortunately, I keep lending the book out and having it stolen. Owned it 3 times and don't have it on my shelf.

>>82257495
I forgot the term for it. Basically, a decent amount of intellectuals liked Gaiman and everyone else eventually followed them. It snowballed into this because Gaiman is a pretty safe dude to bet on. He's down to earth, a philanthropist and a sensible guy.

Good literary influences can help produce good writing. It's the difference between Phillip K. Dick (Flaubert, Balzac, Proust along with Catholic mysticism and Gnostics) and Ernest Cline (Pulp sci-fi, video games, 80s action movies, memes)

I enjoyed the first ep.

I like this manlet as an actor.

Is Starz better than HBO now? They've been doing amazing shit, HBO is just fucking a dead Game of Thrones forever

Is this an adaptation of the book? The book was pretty good from what I remember.

Good Omens adaptation when?

>>82257954
Starz beat out HBO with Black Sails, if this is good then they've completely won.

>>82257999
Sandman couldn't be adapted properly. It's fucking brillaint though, the only comic I've ever genuinely enjoyed. Feels everywhere.

Any dl links, or streams?

>>82253851
Agreed.

They always try to score the PC points with demographics that won't appreciate it. Like the typical fanbase of Ghostbusters, The Dark Tower Series, the Harry Potter films, and now American Gods.

You know who like those series more than anyone else? White males. And you know what else? White people do not like when you take an established white/male character and turn him black/female.... we also don't agree that whiteness is the scourge of the earth so that white parts have to be played by other races/genders.

It's the opposite of how in the 1800s, niggers weren't allowed to be in plays so they typically had whites play the part in blackface.... not to different at all.

But if the last 10 years have taught us anything, it's this. Typically shows that feel the need to revise races and genders to suit a more liberal agenda put very little thought into story arcs, character progression, and plot.... you know that things that matter. They just assumed having a female/nigger cast would be enough to carry it, and it never is.

I foresee all this shit as bombing.

STOP IT you fucking mongs. how many times do you need it explaining: he's dark enough to be clearly mixed, but not dark enough to be considered black. that's literally it. some people ask if he's native american, other's ask if he's got "nigger blood" in him. he's ambiguous. now shut the fuck up.

>>82258109
Congratulations. You should write to Hollywood to collect your "good goy" metal.

You need to realize that the subjugation of any race is not an instant thing. It takes place gradually and with each little restriction of liberty or theft of our cultural treasures, people are inclined to shrug and say, "well it's not that much worse than it was before".

I do not like the notion that there's absolute outrage when it part is "whitewashed" but when a part is "blackened" people shrug.

It's getting very in style to take white men's cultural heroes away from them. It's not that this is hugely egregious by itself but when you understand the philosophical notions that underscore it, it's far more insidious and malicious than it seems.

White solidarity and pride (the term has been so maligned I'm not talking about hate, simply pride, which is good for anyone) are being dismantled piece by piece in such a way that if you aren't paying attention you won't realize and it's easy to write off the doomsayers like myself as crazy....

But when you're a 70 year old man and all your entertaiment is one even shade of brown, Charles Dickens movies are depicted by negroes in the ghetto talking about the thug life, white guys no longer get laid at all, and we are paying reparations..... then you'll finally realize where all that passive resignation has gotten you.

>>82258200

The dude wrote one of the best comics of all time which was the first and last comic to win the World Fantasy Award for best short story (rumour is that people got so assblasted that they later forbid comics to with the prize) and became one of the cornerstones of DC's Vertigo line which pretty much saved mainstream comics, he released (I think) Neverwhere for free on the internet and is a fan of free information, he literally fucked Stoya dressed as his waifu that he created. And he's super likeable.

Gaiman is a true hero.

>>82258200
EASTERN European.

>>82254556
Yes and he pointed out that these are the american interpretations the originals are still home.

At the end of the book Shadow has become disillusioned and travels to meet the original Odin and not the American Mr Wednesday. Its well after the war and his wife saving his life after coming back from the dead.

Learn to read.

>>82258716
>he literally fucked Stoya dressed as his waifu that he created.

Wait, really? I thought he was married. Or homosexual.

He paid stoya for sex?

>>82258748
Married but open relationship, which typically would make him the cuck but he's way more popular/attractive than his wife so he gets a shut ton of pussy

>>82256528
>bingewatching the first episode

>>82258748
No, his wife Amanda Palmer wanted a threesome with her. All three don't believe monogamy is for everyone.

Fun fact, Stoya is now writing comics and being published in Heavy Metal now that Grant Morrison took over.

>>82258716
Sandman is regularly taught in university /lit/ classes now. Him and Alan Moore are largely to credit for making people take comics as an actual literary medium.

It's an attempt to head off white identity as it relates to European ethnic nationalism. Paganism, Norse mythology, and to a lesser extend Celtic mythology has been making inroads over the past decade or so into the white working class. By making shows in which the gods that are at the heart of that culture into being black taints them. No white nationalist wants to be seen worshipping "a nigger".
