    Ben Kingsley as the Mandarin in Iron Man 3 - Minus the Racism 

    DateMon, October 22, 2012

    This is about as politically-correct as it's gonna get. Ben Kingsley's playing the Mandarin in Iron Man 3, a villain dreaded in the translation from 1960s comics to 2012 multiplexes. For obvious reasons. I remember the mid 90s Shellhead cartoon, and accompanying toy-line featured a green-skinned (!) Mandarin. Me so sowwy indeed, 90s politically-incorrect Marvel!
