What color are the Belgian, the Austrailian, the Scott, and the Canadian (that\\\'s assuming that the Taiwanese and Japanese have the \\\"Asian\\\" skin tones)?

\\\'\\\'Averted very strongly in the theatrical release, wherein white Americans Blair and Maniac are the LeastCommonSkinTone (probably due to the movie having been filmed in Luxembourg). The only cultures never covered by the franchise are East Indians/Middle Easterners and South Americans. \\\'\\\'

Freddie Prinze Jr. has fairly white skin, as do Saffron Burrows, Tchéky Karyo, Jürgen Prochnow, David Warner...there is a lot of the light skin tone going on in this movie. This does not seem like a hard aversion of the \\\'one black guy\\\' described in the trope.

The the LeastCommonSkinTone trope is clearly written all about skin tone, or strong physical markers of ethnicity. These examples are of country of origin, or ethnic identity \\\'\\\'\\\'not\\\'\\\'\\\' readily apparent by skin color or Hassidic hair style or something.

I would propose just cutting it.
