  1. Well IMO in the movie Kingpin kinda lost his finesse and a bit of sophistication, yes he was strong and a brute but rarely resort to those tactics, I think Michael Clarke Duncan was a so and so Kingpin. It would really be hard though to cast somebody like kingpin.

  2. Eh, a little diversity is alright...the original characters were created when a lot of minority characters were inherently stereotypical.  I think it's cool for them to change some characters who didn't have to be a minority into one.  I mean, A white Black Panther wouldn't work, but a Black Nick Fury, who was in the Gulf War instead of WW II?  I've got no problem with that.

     

    As far as Kingpin in the movie...eh.  Kingpin's whiteness has little to do with his character.  I was more concerned with Matt Murdock throwing a guy in front of a subway train and making a joke about it.

     

     

    Yeah true lot's of stereotypes back then on the old comics. I’m all for multi racial cast but for the sake of continuity of old characters, please leave them alone. Just add aother Mutant or Hero.

     

    But on the Daredevl part, that was the only redeeming quality they did. Because I had DAREDEVIL THE MAN WITHOUT FEAR SET #1 - 5 , he really has a dark background, he kinda started off killing gangs that where connected to the murder of his father, it was infact one of the most well written and my favorite mini series on his franchise IMO. And one of my first read when I was a kid.

     

    He wore his cool first costume, black overalls and a blindfold.

    :wub:

  3. Nick Fury is black because in the Ultimate Avengers comic books he is. In fact they've drawn him to look like Samuel L. Jackson in the comics.

     

     

    Jebus....

    One of the reasons I kinda stay away from the Marvel Ultimates franchise. All they need now is someone looking asian.

     

    Not being racist here.. it's just that I got that same feeling when they turned Kingpin black for the movie, he's just not the same Kingpin. Wonder thought what made why they made him black.
