Uh, no. I am 6"4 and still not two meters, buddy.

Also, looking at the picture, knowing that those highway dividers are maybe a meter high at best, sounds like a lovely journalism there.

"Take a picture that makes it look as big as possible"
"It still looks about a meter high at best!"
"2 meters you say? That's like 6 feet! Print it!"

2 meters is 6.56 feet, it's close enough.

winterwerefox: Apr 23, 2010; The next movie better not make me shave anything

Now I want a remake of the entire franchise where every white male character is played by a woman of various minorities. Change literally nothing else. Lando is the only white woman. Leia, Aunt Beru, and Mon Motha are two of the only men, and black. Dont change the aliens or droids at all.

This would probably be good, like it's a cool concept and a great, dialogue-heavy movie to do it with.

That is, if any of them could act for poo poo.

Seriously, no more white male protagonists ever. Some groups have been big enough babies to lose their seat at the inclusion table.

The upcoming Star Trek: Discovery series will have a female POC lead, Sonequa Martin-Green (previously from The Walking Dead). Her character's name is First Officer Michael Burnham. Certain fans predictably lost their poo poo and pitched a fit about Hollywood using their favourite franchise to push their inclusivity agenda to which everyone replied "Have you even watched the original loving series?"

Also after fan's lovely reaction to a potential gay character in a previous series, Bryan Fuller has also announced that they're absolutely going to include a gay character. :v:

Deep Space Nine just had the one white male human in a lead role, and it was noted sad sack Miles O'Brien (and Irish at that, so not white 100 years ago).

Sure, other white males playing aliens, but they were still aliens in universe, so...partial credit?

In the utopian post-scarcity regularly-scrambles-your-molecules-and-rebuilds-your-whole-body-from-scratch 23rd Century, there's no reason for anyone to have to live with gender dysphoria.

A decent portion of this so-called SJW agenda in popular media is essentially just "whiny shitheads don't like it for no logical reason other than pure bigotry so I'm going to make it happen just to offend them. Who's triggered now, shitlords?"

I think you'll find that the original series was all about inclusion as long as the people involved had penises so the whiny fanboys are matching it just fine.

2 meters is 6'5". It's not that big of a difference.
