Fineeeeeeeeeeeee. Never really liked the Hulk and always felt bad for GEN Ross. I thought it would have been cool for him to command the Army troops in the Avengers climax.

So today I found out my college network blocks IMFDB as part of a general block on "weapons".

This is clearly an example of trying too hard to capitalize upon star power.

I wouldn't really mind it. I prefer Johnathan-Rhys Meyers for Altair and Henry Cavill for Ezio.

He's at least darker-skinned and, despite sharing a common ethnic heritage with Fassbender, he doesn't look nearly as stereotypically Irish. But I still think that an Arab character should be played by someone with actual Middle Eastern heritage (and, preferably, someone younger/younger-looking than 30).
