It just takes me out of the story immersion when you see some sickly deranged looking midget. He's supposed to be a good guy but he looks like a bad guy.

Spoilers ahead...

spoilerThe character is the result of 200 years of inbreeding in a small and closed society of middle managers with limited food and resources living underneath a post global-nuclear-exchange induced irradiated apocalypse wasteland.

Which may be part of the reason why he's short and doesn't look like Brad Pitt.

Maybe it's good to have casting that doesn't conform to tired stereotypes?
