Nah, I get you. Tumblr-dom seems to have real problems with differentiating between categories of Things Which Are Issues and degree of outrage for various Things Which Are Issues. Also, history and context. And then you have the just free-floating fail that occurs in the world, including on Tumbr, which then gets reblogged and not examined and...yeah.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Though like a few of the FFA people, I suspect most of the people who'd been fancasting Oded Fehr were operating under the assumption that he was Egyptian.
I'm mostly operating under the assumption that he's hot and underused.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Tom beat me, and oh my dear god, my geek panties are wet.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Coolness. I have no comics knowledge whatsoever, but I'm glad the MCU head honchos finally got around to planning movies not headlined by yet another white dude.
Cumberbatch is not announced as Doctor Strange so it looks like that's not yet confirmed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Chadwick Boseman?
I'm sure he will be fine, but what about all the other guys?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Didn't they tell you, ita? He's our New Black Headliner. You only get one.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
With his backstory and when he was created, they wouldn't have had to specify whiteness there. That's kind of the reality of America's fucked up system. (Plus he's totally drawn like Vincent Price, who was totally awesome, but also an upper class rich white guy. So they're are literally doing this whole creepy gross classification by what you view as stereotypical features, and this would make so much more sense were I not on my phone.)
Really, if we were to go back to the characters roots the ideal person to portray him would be Peter Sellers in his Murder by Death yellowface.
