I was surprised that a western animated movie of all things was willing to basically show how fucked up Middle eastern countries and Muslim culture is.

 No.977432

It's an adaptation of a book you uneducated fuck. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised a fem-empowerment story would be adapted into an animated film.

That's hands down the most hypocritical aspect of them.

Were they ever depicted as anything other than archers in anything before that? I mean isn't all depictions of elves outside of Christmas ones come from Tolkien?

Rangers, sorcerers/wizards, templars/Paladins. I thought are pretty common roles for them in fantasy settings. D&D had them do more than archery I thought.

Well I referring to authored media like films, shows, comics, books, etc. Hell, even when D&D puts out a comic, the elf is the ranger.

If I remember right, the original D&D elf class was essentially a hybrid fighter/magic-user.

Cartoon Saloon.

They're Irish, though. All the western animation studios are in Europe now because we'd rather hire Koreans to draw everything.

I've seen the movie, it's not so much a feminist movie as it is a movie about life in the Middle East for a young girl.

I don't see how that contradicts OP's point, especially since (((book adaptations))) are a widespread cancer.

The thing is, even that shit is blown out of proportion. You think shitskin feminists don’t cry wolf the same as western ones do and western media laps it up?

I distinctly remember several years back in being on the news that a woman in Iran or something got executed for cheating on her husband. In actual fact, she was a serial killer who had a habit of marrying rich men and killing them with the help of lovers.

You wouldn’t know from the way the mainstream media laps up the “poor, innocent woman” narrative.

"Elf-shot" is a literal translation of the old norse term used to describe unknown aches, pains, and diseases, because according to all of the oldest written records of elves, they used their arrows to magically spread disease and chronic pain when angered.

Elves were always archers.

I watched the movie, I thought it was pretty good. I liked it a little bit better than Persepolis. Persepolis had a good first half, when she was living in a theocracy in the Middle East, but it got boring when it turned out the heroine grew up to be some dumb slut spreading her legs for Eurotrash hipsters.

The Breadwinner also had a "weaker" half in the side story Parvana would tell to others, but both in the film and inside the story, it served to alleviate from the hardships her family and friends were going though and the alternate animation style was nice.

The ending was pretty ambiguous, it ends with Parvana managing to get her dad back, but it ends right as the way between the USA and Taliban started, so even though it has a "happy" end, for all we know Parvana could have been blown up by a drone or an IED the very next day.

It's a little easier to prove some jackass tossed acid at your face than it is to prove a #metoo twitter post saying a numale grabbed your ass give years ago.

Except nobody even bothers to look into it and the mainstream western media sure as shit isn't going to report it. And it's not like right-leaning westerners are going to give it any more thought considering they hate shitskins and are happy to believe any bullshit that makes them look even worse than it actually is. So in those countries, people know what is true and what is a lying whore. Here, not so much.

It's okay if you take the feminist angle. Women still have enough oppression points for their woes to be considered valid.

Dude's from South East Asia. You can tell by the fact that most of the girls he draws wear mostly normal clothes just with a hijab, which appears to be more of a thing there than in the Middle East.

Also because it says so in his HF page.
