Chris Rock laying down truthiness because no fat princesses for you or actual humanity for POC and more whitewashing and more white men living out ideal fantasies... whee!
I love animation because in the world of animation, you can be anything you wanna be. If you’re a fat woman, you can play a skinny princess.

Meanwhile the rarer and more awesome parts of fandom have been dreamcasting their own topdown genderswap (Indira Varma as Sherlock, Ruth Wilson as Moriarty, Gina Bellman as Mycroft, Gina Torres as Sherlock, Sanaa Lathan as Lestrade, Archie Punjabi as Sherlock!) and I'm going to go hang out with them now.
