That would prevent some parts of their life from being normal sure, but there's no reason they couldn't have a somewhat normal life in a normal city. Instead the PRC tucked them away and has them put on little shows to be laughed at. Sure they're happy, the alternative is destitution in a major city or god knows what else in the PRC, doesn't make it right.

He cannot fathom how Warwick on a shelf is “art” and another dwarf on a mushroom is “exploitation”. And, he’s not wrong. Either - both are detestable and should stop, or both are work/income and should be celebrated.

@@TuorTheBlessedOfUlmo Except you're ignoring the fact that as an actor, Warwick has literally had to scratch and claw his way to where he's at, now, while the people in that village are literally only there because it's one of the only ways they can make a living. What other fucking work could he have done other than play the ewok or the leprechaun? Another better example would be Peter Dinklage, who has specifically tried to avoid roles that he could only land because he's a dwarf. I highly doubt he'd be okay with it if somebody asked him about it. Why should Warwick be fine with it just because that's how he became famous? Being cast in Star Wars certainly did most of that. He doesn't enjoy being 3 feet tall, and he didn't ever enjoy the fact that he could only land certain roles because of it. Like what, he's not allowed to speak out against the exploitation of people such as himself just because he did the best with what life gave him?? That doesn't make any sense.

Shredded Cheese I think that Warwick means that these people live in a community of all-dwarves. It’s kind of awful for Chinese people to take a bunch of dwarves and put them together, make them act as fairies and fantastical creatures. It takes their value as humans and denies them a sense of normality.

@@CigsInABlanket No, that's not what I'm saying! He is an actor by choice. I'm just saying it's as shame the film industry isnt at a point where a leading man or woman role could go to someone with dwarfism. There are stories to be told, interesting stories, but disability is represented poorly on screen, often they are depicted as vulnerable and detached from society when in reality people with disabilities have to overcome adversity every day. So its either that sort of representation or is some sort of Oscar Winning tear-jerker (My Left Foot, for example or A Beautiful Mind.) Where are the rom coms featuring people with disabilities?

I see both points of view. On one hand it's great they have somewhere where they can go to make money and live where it's all adapted for them, and it makes sense that they make a little community where everything caters to their needs, but on the other hand it's sad that society doesn't try to include people with different bodies and abilities more so they don't have to build a village separately and can hang around with everyone else.

Well said

How do we know they aren’t more happy living amongst other dwarfs? All of them will be in the same boat, everything will be designed for their size so it’s probably more comfortable and safety plus they won’t be making fun of each other for their height.

@@jewellui "how do we know they arent happy living amongst other dwarfs" because they arent fucking wild animals and they can speak for themselves and what they want you idiot.

[@AbandonedVoid]

@@jewellui They're not a monolith. Maybe some would genuinely prefer where they're living, but the issue is that it's basically forced on all of them.

i don't remember me laughing so hard in a long time. This is gold.

[@edwardleal2976]

He's up on his "high horse"? Karl's too much😂

[@aaleric]

The funniest thing about this clip is when Karl says "there's a woman that I met who's a little dwarf, she's only been here 4 months and she's already got her own mushroom to live in. And you tell me that's wrong."

[@wolventhrone1631]

She's already got her own mushroom to live in... Has Karl never been to a theme park before??

[@shinobi-no-bueno]

I like how the doors are made even smaller than they need to be

Warrick is being hypocritical. He's happy to exploit himself for money yet disgusted anyone else like him would.

[@warrickmiller7651]

Yeah his roles are always playing a character. His dwarfism isn't the punchline

[@95Lodgey]

“Oooh you shouldn’t be having a little dwarf village and all that”

Now I can't get the image of Warwick Davis on a high horse out of my mind. It's like a birthday card image or something.

Sitting around the piano singing Happy birthday for the 80th time that day 😂😁

Thank you I miss being regular size!... hope y'all have peace of your village...miss y'all.without too much gauking.

[@jaysen2200]

Did he just tell a dwarf that he is on his high horse . Omg kill me

[@manifestgtr]

“Because I know people at home get a little funny about....oh you know....we shouldn’t be havin a little dwarf village” LOL

[@iSOBigD]

Karl rarely makes jokes on purpose that's what's so amazing about him. He can just be hilarious while talking about any topic just because of his wrong understanding of things. When he makes a joke on purpose you can tell he's proud of himself and tries not to laugh.

[@Lockinsign]

I love that I stumbled upon this show

"he was at the top. he had a little cloak on and a crown and shades on. you could tell. he was in charge."
