Comedian Kurt Metzger recently appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience and entered into a discussion about the film 'Snow White' with Joe Rogan.
Metzger said that the blame for the film's box office failure has been completely shifted to young star Rachel Zegler. He also insisted that the 23-year-old actor did not write the script or is responsible for CGI-generated people with dwarfism in the film, which according to him was a decision made by actor Peter Dinklage:
"Now if you notice the spin on it, they are putting it all on [Zegler]. I mean I know she su*ks but she is very young. She didn't write that script though right and I don't think that she made the no dwarves decision, that was Sir Peter Dinklage."
The two then proceeded to discuss the poor use of CGI for dwarves in the movie, with Rogan left unimpressed by what he saw when a video clip of the film was displayed on his big screen:

"Oh wow that does look bad, it doesn't look real at all."
Furthermore, Rogan blamed the filmmakers for not advising Zegler to stay out of politics, stating:
"You get some young girl and you don't kind of talk to her about like, 'Hey, don't get political, you're young and I know you have opinions about things but this should just be about the movie.'"
Metzger then proceeded to lift some of the blame from Zegler, stating:
"The message of the movie is to be that b*tch. That's the message that they wrote a script that's telling girls – I don't need nobody tells me, I am a 20-year-old girl so obviously I can run my mouth all the time. That's the theme of the new Snow White."
However, Metzger suggested that Zegler made a mistake by commenting "Free Palestine" on X as this allowed the film-makers to put the entire blame of the failure on Zegler's shoulders:
"She made the cardinal error of saying Free Palestine on Twitter [X]. So she could say all that – Men are bad and it's this and that, but once you do that, now they've put the entire weight of the failure upon her."

Joe Rogan calls for DOGE investigation into Snow White
Unimpressed by the visuals of the film, Joe Rogan jokingly suggested on the aforementioned podcast that the Elon Musk-headed Department of Government of Efficiency (DOGE) should look into the film for potential foul play:
"They should get DOGE to look into this movie. They spent 250 million bucks making that movie." [39:43]
Rogan also criticized Disney for not talking to Zegler regarding the public address of sensitive issues.
