There's also El Bulbo! http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/e/elbulbo.htm

is it just me or is their blatant racism against mexicans in hollywood?

i mean why wasnt zorro played by a mexican instead of antonio banderas who is spaniard by the way...

also in desperado again a mexican role given to a spaniard a white man... 😕

also a lot of the mexican heroes seems to be offensive and stereotype of what some ppl think a mexican should look and act like...

Well, you said it yourself, Zorro is a spanish noble, not a Mexican.

well when they modernized the movie the second zorro was suppose to be a mexican who moved up a class by marriage to his Spaniard wife.

so zorro was suppose to be mexican but he was played by a spaniard

Obviously, because I made that list.

most if not all of them are obscure actors with no leading roles under their belt... also not even half are good looking and the other half are women.. 🙁

the only cool one was the dude from the WB show with the demons and whatnot and even he isnt leading cast material

indeed, lets joke about people being offended by potentially racist undertones by being totally abbrasive and insulting to them

because a multi-cultural society that appreciates diversity is all about this. Lets also not mention that these are the same people who are offended by affirmative action.

White racial issues - valid
non-white racial issues - invalid because they make no sense to white people

i knew this was just a joke thread which is why im being a smart@$$ and lobbying for a mexican superman like movie hero

Nooo racial issues with movies that are just movies and aren't intended to have supremacist values because the blacks are too sensetive, such as avatar.

right:

"I don't understand what people are saying, and in my experience of being a white person, I have never had to deal with these issues, therefore their complaints are not just misguided, they are moronic, and people holding them deserve my scorn rather than any attempt to rationalize why they might feel a particular way about a racial issue I've never been unfortunate enough to be on the loosing end of"
