Thank you for such a wonderfully polite and thoughtful response. :) I really do appreciate it. I guess my point was, if the real argument is about minorities getting a fair shot at portraying their own ethnicities in movies instead of a badly-made-up white person or only being allow to be the "Chinese food delivery guy", then we shouldn't be saying, "We want to keep the movie culturally accurate." because none of the Norse gods are black. I'm all for minority actors being given less dehumanizing roles or seeing minority characters being played/cast with more ethnic sensitivity. Fu Manchu, anyone?
