Yeah yeah yeah we've been down this road before "Why did they make Nick a black dude?"
Yes we also know that Marvel created a story around the introduction to the world as to why there is a black Nick Fury ( See BATTLE SCARS a series put out by Marvel about 3 years ago ) He's actually the real Nick's son and FURY is actually his SHIELD code name.
This created a new dynamic and yes while it was a good derivitive plot contrivance we still only see Sam playing Nick on the big screen.
That's not what I want...I want SGT. Nicholas Fury leader of the Howling commandoes! There is a whole history of Marvel comics being whitewashed over so we can have Samuel L. Jackson as FURY ( who may be losing the job I hear )
I love Sam...I love PULP FICTION , I love Stretch from Goodfella's I love SNAKES ON A PLANE I love DEEP BLUE SEA! But I love COMIC BOOKS...and that aint the FURY I know and love. Just sayin'. I'm going to watch these Marvel films no matter what! ;)
I feel the same way. Hollywood has just gone crazy with changing well established races in order to be more... P.C. I guess? Why not just introduce a character of that race, if that is what they want to do. If they wanted a good black Avenger, Luke Cage. Theyve done a great job with him on Ultimate Spiderman.
