Fucking Idris Elba is a diversity hire through and through. We

who cares hes hot

The Wire

>>86095209
Yeah his Baltimore accent is really authentic. I am truly amazed by this show and his thoughtful performance.

>>86095102
America has a million black actors so why does Idris get all the work?
because he's based as fuck and not your usual ghetto boy, thats why.

>>86095414
A monkey with a chav accent is still a monkey.

The only reason /tv/ screams "blackwashing" over Idris Elba is because he's not American. Will Smith, Morgan Freeman and Samuel L Jackson don't get shit for being cast in "white" roles.

>>86095586
OK...and? The only thing you're suggesting is that we're not motivated by racism. Anyway, those other actors have, at times, displayed talent.

Elba is a silly little nigger man with nothing artistic in his entire """"soul""" or whatever porch monkeys have.

take a movie, any movie with a male lead. .. replace him with Idris Elba.
is that movie now better? yes it is.

>>86095102
I wanna press those buttons. Redpill me on that laptop

He was good on The Wire and bad in everything else

The Wire's writers and directors managed to get some great performances out of mostly mediocre actors

>>86095934
I dunno man have you watched it recently? There are some serious nostalgia goggle effects with that show.

>>86095828
>12 Monkeys

holy shit it works

>>86096570
I'm actually rewatching it now for the first time in almost ten years and I love it even more. What parts of it didn't stand the test of time for you?

>>86096686
The acting and the hamfisted thematics really stand out as amateurish to me. I loved it way back when. I found myself rolling my eyes this time through.

It's basically the Wire chess scene copypasta issue desu.

>>86096846
It's the immaculate plotting and memorable characters that make it so great

Your post should be bannable. You seem like you may be retarded.

>>86095102

He was good in Beasts of No Nation.

>>86097258
This.

The Wire was dope.
Luther season 1 and 2 were good too.
Then the BBC went full SJW and tried to force Luther to be some sort of sexual chocolate mandingo slinger.

>>86097761
Nah, that was 100% a diversity hire.
