I'm glad somebody mentioned it. That movie is a landmark in filmmaking and a total farce at the same time. The TV show Documentary Now did an amazing parody of it.

Inuit, actually. Calling an Inuit "Eskimo" is like calling a Native American "Indian". it's outdated, incorrect, and it's not that hard to get it right.

Ah! Sorry man I didn't know, when I found the picture it said Eskimo, you're right I should have said Inuit. I'm afraid I don't know very much about the indigenous peoples of America, I just thought that this picture was really cool!

Thanks! :D I'm not trying to be a hardass or anything. I just don't like it when people refer to groups by outdated and incorrect names. And some people from those groups actually take offense to certain terms, so that's also something.

Ah I see, I understand. I'll make a note of not saying Eskimo if I am to meet someone of Inuit heritage.
