Why did they make him black?

>>84889404
Sony wanted him to be Bond but couldn't get away with it so they made him star in their next big movie instead.

>the DARK tower
it refers to his dingus, dingus.

So they could show you his dark tower

Was his race even specified in the books?
And this nigga's the flavor of the year actor. He's quite good too.

And yeah, I get that if somehow Roland's race has never been specified, we associate knight/gunslinger character with a white guy and Sony gets that too but you know what do they also get? People's attention. Angry nerds are a great marketing force, why do you think Marvels does all this shit swapping heroes' with characters of different race and gender? Because it effortlessly guarantees attention.

>>84889404
Because the gunslinger is supposed to be masculine and handsome, so that pretty much nixed any white ''''''''male''''''' from the get go.

Because it's CURRENT YEAR

>>84889751

>Was his race even specified in the books?
The plot of the entire second book hinges on it. Him being white causes the central conflict because a black chick doesn't trust whitey.

>>84889841
A big part of the second book was he was traveling with a racist black woman who was constantly making fun of him for being white.

>>84890024
I think you mean that white lady wanted him dead for being black.

Well. it still doesn't change anything, Sony isn't obliged in any way to stick true to the source material.

Anyway, 99,9998% of the people have never heard of the Dark Tower, now they do, because of the vocal minority of angry autists.

because of political correctness and pandering to the niggers who, instead of just making their own shit such as coal panther, keep taking white roles instead. but since niggers can only make movies about slavery, ghettos and rap, i'm not surprised. just a total parasite race.

>>84890143
I don't really care. It's just quite cringy how anons try to see hidden messages in cheap marketing tricks.

Not like 'Detta or the other characters are going to be in the movie anyway and they aren't following the books exactly, there's some pretty weird shit in the books that wouldn't translate well to film. So race doesn't really matter.

Still seems out of place having a black clint eastwood inspired cowboy though.

We can agree to disagree.
The writing in the Gunslinger is so rich and well-written. IIRC he wrote it in highschool and still holds it as his magnum opus.

kek. I like a lot of Stephen King but he's spins a pretty simple yarn had his prose is pedestrian. He's not a bad writer (like Dan Brown), he's just a pleb.

So you would ask that question and generate buzz.
So they could frame the movie as a progressive event and use the "consumerism-as-activism" business model: either you watch and like this movie, or you're a racist, sexist, homophobe, unperson.

>>84891378
Susan is not in this movie. There'll probably be no sequel; not enough DT or Elba fans in the world to make it a win.

If there were a sequel, they could make her white and have her call Roland a nigger.

I'm halfway through the drawing of three and its still focused on eddie. So you might want to learn what literally means

>>84890086
>mfw they keep that basic structure but its a white woman making fun of him for being a nigger

>>84890192
Actually it means a whole lot considering they changed the characters race for some personal reason. Do you seriously think changing a character's established race, which is central to the plot, to be of another race to cater to a specific audience isn't exploitative at its very core? That's pretty bigoted of you, they're literally trying to exploit AA to see this film.

>>84890192
>99,9998% of the people have never heard of the Dark Tower,

Stephen King is the most popular author in the world and this is one of his most popular books. Most people have heard of it before.

>>84892431
Been mentioned multiple times, drawing of the three. Tell me, have you read the books- wiki articles aren't books

Wow that sounds dumb. I didn't know Stephen King was an alt-right writer.

I'm glad they fixed it in the movie. Hopefully this will combat all those racial supremecists like Steve Bannon.

>>84892533
Literally a central point of conflict in the second book. Changing the race of the MC is being done solely to trick African Americans into seeing this movie, it is absolute exploitation and those celebrating it should be ashamed of themselves

>>84892575
It's not about Roland's whiteness; it's about Odetta being a racist. If he's black the racism flips. If they make Odetta black, idk. But I would imagine they would cast white for this reason.

Not that she will ever BE cast, this shitstorm is never going to make it's budget back.

>>84892603
Wow that's a whole lot of assumptions you base cunt, try watching someone you love wither away because of their decisions

>>84892635
A) it is not the central point of the drawing of the three, eddie's arc takes up half the fucking book so how is susan suddenly more important?
B) outside of susan's part, which could be race reversed, roland's race is never mentioned again

No you just want something to bitch about

>>84892647

Unless bottles are flying magically to lips; someone is lifting them.

If it's the former I do apologize. I will admit to being a bit of a cunt right now. But this idea that alcoholics are not in control of their vessel, the body, is silly. I get it, I drink and smoke too. I love drugs. But I'm not ruled by them.

>>84892706
A central point of conflict, not THE. Jesus. Of course I should have remembered I'm talking to people who hold Steven King to be of literary merit.

>>84890086
But that is a good sign that they won't do that lame ass part of Drawing of the Three. I hated Odetta.

They'll probably just not make her racist if she appears in the movie. I mean it's the essential part of her personality in the book but they could easily change that, i'm sure they're changing 99% of the story to adapt it anyways.

Well, again, if one is becoming physically addicted to a thing, be it drugs, food or sex, they are responsible for that as well. Unless you're a baby and your mom is giving your rags soaked in whiskey to suck on so you'll shut the fuck up. That's a tragedy, certainly. But most people form their own destructive habits.

I am against excusing destructive habits. My mom died because she had shitty habits about drugs, about taking care of herself. That sort of evil must be corrected, for the benefit of all mankind and for the sufferers as well.

I attribute it to the lack of rational philosophy instruction in public schools. And PERSONAL responsibility. If teachers and parents fail, the person is a victim, but damn it, they still have a brain.

>>84893246
Yeah but this guy would be surrounded by whites and no one could tell he was black. Then at the end there will be a Shyamalan twist that reveals he was actually black the whole time and the whites discover that he is black.
