sleepymaggieThere's apparently some people upset because the man cast to play Heimdall in Thor is black.
I know this because Penny Arcadetells and shows me so. They also recorded a video of them discussing the whole thing (which is pretty awesome). And they pointed out this link to the story (which has some bad words and liberal and atheist language).
The whole topic is pretty interesting, from a bunch of angles, movie and pagan in particular, but also social in general. The video covers some pretty interesting ground. They get meta at points, with discussions of how to have the discussion and discussion of what the discussion means.
Anyways, thought I'd point this stuff out. Maybe some more writing on this later.
