GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I would watch Kyle Chandler read the phone book.
... okay, yeah, I haven't watched the final season of FNL yet because I'm convinced it will shatter my heart into tiny little pieces.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I haven't seen FNL, but he definitely looks the part.

Huh, I would never have thought of that, but I'm game.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does anyone have a citation for why Bane being played by Tom Hardy is racist? I can't see anything that says Bane isn't white. Who is his mother?

Sir Edmund Dorrance, aka King Snake, is a British native who first distinguished himself in the Royal Artillery (a corps of the British Army). He and some friends then became mercenaries, offering their professional expertise to various anti-communist rebels, and made considerable money in doing so. While in Santa Prisca working with local rebels, his camp was taken by surprise by government commandos and Edmund blinded by gunfire. He fled the country, leaving for dead a female rebel that he had slept with. The woman was actually alive and pregnant with Edmund's son. Both she and her child were imprisoned for Edmund's crimes against the Santa Prisca government, with the child growing up in prison to become the villainous Bane.
So the theory is that he's half-Hispanic, but I'll point out that Santa Prisca (which seems to map loosely to Cuba in its fictional history) is strongly Spanish influenced, also that Hispanic is not the same as not white. As any of our Hispanic, but white, Buffistas can attest.
I'd be bothered if, say it were Renee Montoya being played by some random blonde starlet, but this? Not so much.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
ISTR comics with Bane with his mask off, and he was white.
I feel like he's of Russian descent, although that might not be true.
t edit x-post with Plei, who comes through with the info!
