Oh yeah I totally agree. I said I didn't like Shakespeare and some of these idiots acted like I said I fucked their mothers.
There are American writers that'll I put up against any European. In fact the best works of the 20th century came from the Americas.

that's a bad thing?
I respect the guy based on his knowledge of MMA. You can really learn from the guy as far as verbal instruction goes.
he may not understand Boyle's Law, or be able to recite the last paragraph in the opening chapter of Crime and Punishment, but he definitely knows other stuff.

I will agree only if it's specific to the mythology that Heimdall is a personification of a human being. But if he is like the ice giants of Jotunheim or something, he is not bound by the specific phenotype of a Nordic guy because many of the immortals are beings, not people in the narrow sense. If, however, he's supposed to be like Thor's cousin or something, like Loki and Balder the Brave, then he would need to be Nordic. And again, this is a comic book, not a faithful representation of the Norse legend. The mythical Thor of legend wasn't hanging around with the Incredible Hulk and fighting Galactus.

True and if your going to bitch about one guy they should be bitching about the lead not being nordic either.

That's what I'm saying, it should be all nordic, I think it's a matter of respect, I'm sure some people would be pissed off if they made a movie about African Mythology and cast non-African actors. Norse mythology, Nordic actors...

But that's the point the movie is based on a comicbook, the Marvel Universe not Norse Mythology so they're well within their rights to change shit.
