Which is entirely Disney’s fault. Dinklage was complaining about the story being a backwards-ass story about a bunch of dwarves stuffed into a tiny house and obsessing over the first woman they see. His complaints had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with whether those dwarves were CG or played by LP. It’s incredibly unlikely that Disney ever planned on hiring LP actors for the dwarves to begin with, but if they took the complete wrong point from Dinklage’s criticism and changed direction over it, it’s certainly not his fault.
I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, but due to GoT, Peter is/was massively popular, and Disney is always trying to please the lowest common denominator, so, i don’t feel he’s blameless here.
Perhaps he’s not completely at fault, but his comments clearly didn’t help LP actors. Just my $.02.

Disney tries to please the lowest common denominator, so let’s blame the lowest common denominator for Disney getting it wrong. Did I get that right?
