Detroit News: Critics say 'Clones' has racial stereotypes
George Lucas, sometimes accused of reinforcing racial stereotypes with his movies, has done it again, according to critics.My favorite whine is about Temuera Morrison, the actor who plays Jango. The "critics" keep saying he's soooo Latino, yet he's actually from New Zealand and is of Maori descent. Which is how he looked to me, especially his son. Never thought for a moment he was Latino, and actually thought it was cute that this tribe from a Pacific island would be bred into the most badass army the galaxy has ever seen. Revenge at last...or maybe it's been too long since I've seen "Utu" (excellent film; need to find out if it's on DVD).
