Michelle Rodriguez is on a super rampage Rodriguez: You minorities need to create your own superheros! You're lazy! Eddie: I'm a cartoonist, and I've been creating superheroes and characters for years. Rodriguez: A likely story! Which ones? Eddie: Uh, I just created a really confused Latina superhero called "Supermouth." Rodriguez: Well, I hope he's played by a white guy!
