Don't tell his African-American wife what a racist he is.

If recent events are any indicator, having a s.o. of another race doesn't preclude one's ability to still do racist things (re: D. Sterling).

I'm not interested in branding someone a "racist". However, even the best of people do racist things sometimes, usually inadvertently. Probably all of us do. It should be possible to point out racist acts, without blanket labeling someone a racist... unfortunately most people can't separate the two. I never called GL a racist (I have no idea if he is or isn't) - but I'm surprised that nobody suggested to him that the character might be considered insensitive by some people. Whether or not you (or I) agree with that, a lot of people do consider the character to be borderline racist. It doesn't mean GL is a racist, and perhaps he downplayed the character in the next episodes partly because of what he learned from the feedback that it stirred.

I agree with this very much. That's all I'll say to keep the thread on topic.

And back to Indy, TOD is technically a prequel, and I feel it is underrated. I feel the same applies to the Hobbit movies, which I really enjoy, but seem to be heavily criticized.
