Props and all, but I thought that guy was a terrible actor. Pretty as hell, but the acting was baaaad.
Heretic! ::hisss::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Love him, loved Sisko, loved how different he was from the Captains that had preceded him.
So while grumpy black Klingon might seem cliche to you, at least it's different from street punk/pimp/dealer/gangsta.
Erm, it's not just to me, it's in the genre. The Next Gen Klingons were primarily black, as were the Jem'Hadar and the Jaffa were above average played by black actors.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I read an interview of her - she seems quite intelligent.

She was funny and adorable at WonderCon. And she was a better panelist than Aaron Johnson, the star of the movie. Who knocked up his 43-year-old director.
He seems like he's a great actor, though, given how completely different he is in person compared to the clips I've seen of the movie. Also, apparently he auditioned with his American accent, and when he dropped back to his natural British accent to answer a question about where he was from, the director was like, "Holy crap, that's the best fake British accent I've ever heard!"

Despite being engaged to an older woman and an expectant father, you mean?

I actually meant despite being a terrible mumbly panelist.

At least he's 19, so it's not as if he's going to be dropped off at school by his girlfriend along with their kid.
I don't really mind the race-blind casting among the Asgardians since they're gods and all, rather than historical Vikings. I mean, some of their enemies are 20-foot tall blue people, where do you look for race-appropriate casting for that?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
