    @Duncan: 
    Well put.
    How do you think the fans would react if a white dude did play Cage?

    I'm not so sure that's all it is.
    Lot of different factors to play with.
    Think with some thing like a white dude playin' Cage it'd suck even more since minority character almost never get a chance at the big time.
     
    As for Glover playin' Spidey. Whole think smelled like a publicity stunt to me.
    If he really wanted to play a superheroe why not push for a African American character? Surely that'd be a much bigger achievment. Get the character some recognition and maybe increase their profile.
    Static would be ideal.
