The thing about powder is that I'm not sure its as fair to call it a movie about an albino person, as it is to call it a movie about a person with several incredible post human qualities, one side effect of which is albinism. He's a super intelligent mind reading empath, and at the end of the movie, its implied that he actually transcends flesh and becomes an energy being. Trying to decide one way or another whether the movie is a good or bad portrayal of albinism is a bit silly, because a regular albino person is not what the movie set out to portray.

I wish that weren't true on so many levels. The CGI orcs in the hobbit look absolutely awful held up next to the practical ones from the original trilogy. I can only guess that they're more cost effective or something.

I doubt its more powerful, but its probably very similar. A large macaw could surgically de-finger your hand as easily as a pair of sturdy meat sheers could do the same to a five pack of frozen chicken fingers. Maybe even easier.

I imagine on the fun-not fun scale it must have been somewhere near the unholy hell end of the spectrum
