So I watched this movie called Bright this weekend. In the movie, Will Smith is a human cop with an Orc partner cop. The movie is basically a buddy cop movies with Orcs, Humans and Elves.
In the movie there's a scene where Will Smith chases a fairy, that had been bugging the crap out of his wife, with a broom and kills it. I admit the fairy is a little annoying bugger, but before it dies it's laughing and having a good time and doesn't seem to be that destructive. It also appeared to be semi intelligent as I think I caught some words here and there. I might be mistaken. Anyways, the fairy is basically a little annoying humanoid.
In addition, I read a Japanese comic the other day that was set in 1800s England. In this world, people capture cute little Fairies and make 'em fight each other to the death in staged matches. Folks bet on which fairy they think will win. It's basically dog fighting with fairies. These fairies can talk and communicate, however, and get sad when they're forced to kill other cute little fairies.
What's up with people picking on fairies in these fictional worlds? Should the people coming up with these movies and comics stop killing off fairies? How would you feel if Tinkerbell had been forced to fight in a death match?
