i'd say your argument is in direct opposition to the idea of an 'ethnic magic friend' - if you are going to suppose that ck is purposefully interacting with latino characters based on his interest in/the psychology behind his heritage (an interesting observation i hadn't really noticed or thought about before), that's…

i've always had a hard time parsing the politics of nolan's batman movies, too. in the last one, there's a similarly invasive, totalitarian move made in the name of the overall good - the city wide 'cell phone sonar' - that made me question what sort of 'message' was being conveyed.

yeah, i spent most of the movie wondering if morgan freeman was recast as another guy who happened to work at wayne enterprises. it's an easy mistake to make, it's not always clear if an actor who played a specific character in the previous 2 movies of a trilogy shows up in the third one is still playing the same guy…

i can't tell if you're being sarcastic - i thought it was pretty obvious blake was being set up as robin. as soon as he calls wayne out as batman, and they're having discussions about fighting crime with or without masks, it should have been clear to everyone who he was going to become. the film foreshadowed it every…

you re-watched something you already knew you didn't like? you really are a retard.

well, he's either too professional to slip up and reveal info he gleaned from future episodes, or he's too professional to pull personality traits of characters out of thin air.

yep. my point still stands - i'm not talking about the color of his skin. being 1/4 hispanic and living in mexico until the age of 7 is mutually exclusive to being a 'super-white guy'. and it's moronic to try and paint a portrayal of a relationship between him and a cuban-american as an 'ethnic magic friend story'…

yeah, what the fuck is rabin talking about? we get no glimps of her character beyond the fact she's a nice, fairly clever bookstore clerk who is apparently at least mildly attracted to louie.

i had that same split second thought before i realized it was posey.

he may look white, but he's actually part latino, dumbass. he was born in mexico and moved to the states when he was 7 at which point he spoke no english. he has dual citizenship. he's not a 'super white guy', and that plotline absolutely was not an 'ethnic magic friend story' (as if that were even enough of a trope…
