The Nick Fury comparison is completely ******** on two accounts.

1. There is no shortage of white roles, making a white character into POC is inclusive and more diverse. Also gives POC actors a. Fair shake, since most characters either in movies or comics are usually male white by default.

2. The Marvel Cinematic Universe Nick Fury is based off Ultimate Comics Nick Fury who had his looks directly taken from the actor Samuel Jackson. And if Samuel Jackson wants to play that character, no one is stupid enough to say o to Samuel Jackson. Personally I loathe the Ultimate Comics Nick Fury, but luckily he got a more 616 universe personality so I'm glad he isn't Ultimate. Nick in characterization

I'm well aware that Eric Sachs is a play on Oroku Saki, doesn't make it any less stupid and ridiculous.

Especially when the name is wrong. Eric Sachs don't fit Oroku Saki, cause Eric is a first name and Oroku is a surname. The western order of Saki's name is Saki Oroku, cause Oroku is his Surname. In other words a western play on his name, a "alias" if you will, would be a play on Saki Oroku, not Oroku Saki.
