Games thread!

It's a very natural reaction to find Walter White sexy.

[sporkly]

I don't even watch this show, but I can plainly tell she's purple.

[tweedisgood]

Sadyna!

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe people in the space-future realized this could potentially be a problem and put limits on how much time you can spend in the Holodeck?

[sarillia]

Why can't a character who's supposed to be like Dr. Dolittle and Jane Goodall be black?

I don't think people should attack you for thinking she's white but I don't see how that argument makes sense.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sick of Irene AND Moriarty showing up in every adaptation.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's a common fandom thing to think purple=black. Fans of MLP swear Twilight is also black, since she's purple, lol.

POOP

[(Anonymous)]

Well...I'm glad you don't read them for the poetry?

[(Anonymous)]

IA that it's extremely creepy, and I really hope they make him a villain for good. It's even more disturbing after the most recent episode
However, I'm still afraid they'll find a way to retcon his being A like they did with Toby.

[tweedisgood]

I have seen LOTS of people complain about too much Moriarty in BBC Sherlock (and I agree)and the way he keeps being resurrected in the Rathbone films.

Most of the Irene discussions seem to be about whether her characterisation is consistent with canon.

IOW, not sure where OP is coming from?

[morieris]

Where are you fighting about this at? I haven't seen anything in the tag about this...as you said, there are plenty of characters who are clear allusions to real life races, and while people can project any race they like upon the characters...seriously, they want Jane to be black? A girl who lived in the jungles as a child and was removed from 'conventional' lifestyle and mannerism standards until she was found by scientiests? What kind of Unfortunate Implications?

[sarillia]

But people do say the same thing about Moriarty.

[fauxkaren]

I just have to say, I love Elementary combining Irene and Moriarty.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't watch the show either. But my first thought was that she was pretty...and then I noticed she was purple. And didn't care. People honestly care about monster skin color?

[(Anonymous)]

Really? How come?

[(Anonymous)]

Dr. Dolittle was played by Eddie Murphy in the 1998 film adaptation. Your argument is invalid.

[badass_tiger]

idk the people who do complain either complain about both, or neither.

Another point is that Irene Adler isn't some sex symbol or Holmes' love interest, but that's almost always what she is portrayed as, whereas Moriarty is a villain, and is always portrayed as a villain. No misrepresentation there. I admit the prevalence of Adler+Moriarty's characters in adaptations is annoying and overdone, but I don't believe it has anything to do with Adler being a woman.

Anyway, do people complain about Granada!Adler? I've only watched a few episodes, the one with Adler being one of them, and I thought they portrayed her quite faithfully to the canon.

[(Anonymous)]

I was crying when her parents found out and eventually okay'd the relationship. Yeah sure Erza let me help you get that job.

*crying from tears of hilarity*

[(Anonymous)]

well of course you don't feel welcome; Steam, being fundamentally a storefront, is a monument to capitalism.

[(Anonymous)]

Right? Dr. Doolittle was even black in the Eddie Murphy version.
