So. Schindler was suppose to be German. Liam Neeson is Irish. Anthony Hopkins (British) played Nixon. Starting to get the picture? Actors don't have to have the same nationality to play the role.
*head desk* Hiro was supposed to be ASIAN...this just ruins the entire series having Hiro being a white guy. It doesn't make any fucking sense. Once again, a good book destroyed by the American entertainment industry.

what a racist. what does the race or color matter. i frequently see actors play roles that were originally meant to be for another race or color. given that they're not playing a real person (and that's probably even conceding too much since the guy who starred in Schindler's List wasn't German and his work was praised) I see nothing wrong with it. Anyway, I'm watching it because of Jamie Chung, she's super hot and gorgeous which trumps all silly arguments, so plfffffffft!
it matters because they do this to asian males all the time - they always pair asian girls with white males. and aside from jackie chan, jet li, and chow yun fat, how many male asian movie STARS (NOT supporting characters) can you name? how many asian males have kissed a girl on screen? i bet you can't name 10. you don't think it's racist that asians ALWAYS play bad guys; nerds; guys who get killed first? replacing hiro is a racist act in itself and your obliviousness to it is sad.

Ethnicity can also be defined by nationality, not just race. Not enough room to give you a course here but Wikipedia has a half-way decent overview under "Ethnic Group." If you are REALY interested in the subject Michael S. Billinger's "Another Look at Ethnicity as a Biological Concept: Moving Anthropology Beyond the Race Concept" seems appropriate (you can google it and find some additional overviews).

azn103100, you got your ass kicked by Ramubay because you really didn't know what you were talking about, you only thought you did. LOL. Ramubay's correct by the way, it's right out of any basic Anthropology 101 class, including the book reference (I only went as far as 201 because it wasn't my major). Just a lesson to you to do a little research before posting because there's always going to be someone around who actually knows the subject matter and will call your bluff.

Even fewer Native Americans have done the things you talk about. And they were here before anyone else.

and BTW, in Schindler's List, what does Liam Neeson's ETHNICITY have to do w/ his RACE? the character was still caucasian making your point moot.

LMFAO the white guy is called HIRO??
how come his name is Hiro since he's white?? I mean,his mother wanted to give him a japanese name??
Or they changed the name of the original character to fit this series?
Because is completly idiotic a white guy with the name Hiro.

They killed the series.
They freaking murdered the books with this crap.
The whole Hiro and Heaven Drama made the books the emotional ties and all that good stuff.
Then they make this about some old stupid story take out the best characters. -_-
