I noticed the clones in Attack Of The Clones were maori actor, whose name escapes me right now. I thought it was cool hearing the Kiwi accent coming from those helmets.

Definitely North Island, possibly from Orcland. Whaddaya reckon, Miche?

there are latino groups up in arms in the US because they say he looks latino and therefore the shot of thousands of clones eating lunch in the cafeteria and then marching around is an obvious reference to migrant workers and playing up peoples fears of said migrants.

There has been much too much reading into this movie. I say we shoot the next person who tried to infer some sort of cultural slamming from the film.

I believe it. I figured the actor was Latino, myself.

The migrant worker thing is rather silly, though. If you're cloning from one person, of course all the clones will be the same race.
