>>68775351
What is there to discuss?
>>68775419
What isn't there to discuss? We live in a time where a white person being the lead in nearly any form of media is considered racist because it's not equal representation, but the current thread is about clueless SJWs complaining about whitewashing in Japanese anime when Japanese characters in anime are always western styled, and everyone BUT the sjws know it so they scream racism.
>>68775054
We have so many threads about this a day, I'm pretty sure /tv/ is the only one who cares at this point. I don't see why it's an issue now rather than when we found out about Scarjo playing her several months ago.
lol a /tv/ poster already rebuffed this video definitively

Literally where
why do asian americans have so many complexes that asians don't? how do we fix them, /tv/?
>>68775640
The Internet.
>>68775516
Okay, so why do you care if SJWs think its racist if they're the only ones who care? Just ignore them. The studio is using a white actress/actor, dozens of movies coming out this year will feature white actors, and only SJWs will care. So why should you care? You're just making yourself mad reading into all of this political shit.
As a white American, allow me to explain why they're wrong...
>>68775676
Why wouldn't somebody care about something like this, especially as a white person?
SJWs don't live in giant echo chambers suited for them, they live with us and have a lot of power and that's what people don't realize. These insane retards can actually change things.
It's not just SJWs who cares, anybody who hates white people care, and that a problem. You might not see the bigger picture here but I'd like to think I do. This is going to get worse and worse, the BBC just announced guidelines to have "one in every six BBC stars to be homosexual or disabled."
Think about this.
scarjo is a kike

Private industries aren't regulated by the government you fucking half wit, what are you talking about laws for? They can do whatever they want and are doing whatever they want.
Did you miss the part when I mentioned that by 2020 the BBC wants ONE SIXTH of their stars to be gay or crippled? What does that spell to you? You have no idea what you're fucking talking about and seem extremely confused for a good portion of this thread. Good job, dipshit.

Yeah, you need some time away from the computer. If your biggest problem is seeing queers and cripples on TV, then you live an extremely sheltered easy life.

>>68776797
You're cute.

Blacks have their own film culture and organizations too. A ton of blacks films are produced. The difference is merely the budget but you can literally say the same thing about asian films.
Chinese and nip films don't have any production to them either yet it would be stupid to say that we need to supplement their movie culture.
Sure, if all you care about is budget and main roles you can be upset as black viewer. But blacks have a disproportionate amount films made for them anyway.
Hell blacks have a whole movie culture of shitty parody movies. I just seen The black purge last week.

>>68775260
Being anti-SJW isn't exclusively /pol/.
Why would it matter what the Japanese think about it when that's not the issue? The issue is that it's a Japanese-American, or Asian-American, actor being replaced and having a potential role stolen.
>>68775809
It's LITERALLY white genocide.
>>68778656
>The issue is that it's a Japanese-American, or Asian-American, actor being replaced and having a potential role stolen.
But are there any good enough actors for a lead role here?
Guys who make these movies think about a lot more than whether or not the characters look the same as the actors you know
>>68775054
It is bad you fucking retard.
Have you ever considered the perspective of the people being interviewed?
They live in a country where 98.5% of the population is Japanese. They aren't marginalized at all.
The US is supposed to be a heterogeneous nation but there is very little representation for Black and Asian actors/actresses. This is an Asian American problem and not a Japanese problem.
>>68775054
Why do you people care about this? On both sides. I have loved GitS since the original manga and I couldn't give less of a fuck about the mvoie or who's casted, it's the least of the movie's problems. Nothing good have come out of the gitS franchise since SAC almost 10 years ago.

That shit was dumb though, mostly because they didn't make Sue black too.
Pic is who it should have been.
I don't know if it's been mentioned, but there is a chart somewhere detailing how Hollywood casting is completely representative of the percentages of races in USA. Anyone have it?
>>68782207

You guys also think it is great for James Bond to be black too.
>>68775054
Why was no one angry that the cast of Attack on Titan was portrayed by Asians and not Germanic whites like they were in the anime? (Except Mikasa of course)
It's like America only exists to these people. Who are the racists again?
>>68780977
>But are there any good enough actors for a lead role here?
Johansson isn't a good actress. There are many talented Asian actresses, but the problem is exposure and opportunity.
No opportunities for Asian actresses because hollywood isn't casting them in anything.
>>68783058
Japan prides itself as a homogeneous nation.
America prides itself as a heterogeneous nation.
>>68782970
As long as he ain't going undercover in Russia.
I mean, If a black Bond went undercover in Kenya or Zimbabwe. I could see it working
Ok, there will be less class and sexy woman but It would still work
>>68776085
Except it's far more common for right wingers to be compared with Nazis by the left, so what the fuck are you even trying to say?
>>68783101
Isn't that because the population of Asians in America is much smaller than whites?
>>68783124
So why aren't the angry morons going after Japan for being 'racist' rather than the more accepting American market?
I wish I was born in 2100. Whites need to hurry up and become a minority already. Literally every hispanic role plays up to hispanic stereotypes and I'm sick of this shit.
>>68783058
Some people were angry but that's not even a good comparison anyway. Japan isn't America. Japan is 99.9% Japanese and doesn't have a white population from which to draw potential actors. The United States does have a significant enough Asian population that finding Asian actors shouldn't be a problem.
hey, why are we not annoyed that this shit is being pointlessly remade instead?
Who fucking cares who is playing who? I mean, no one complained when Jodie Foster played the main character in the Ring remake
>>68783148
The US is 5% Asian I think. The state where Hollywood is located, California, is 15% Asian.
>>68783211
See
>>68782788
>>68782736
It doesn't need to be said again. Casting has proven to be accurate of the Asian population in USA. Yet you keep conveniently ignoring that.
>>68783211
Have you seen asian parents tough. As someone with an Asian mother, no fucking way way she would let me do something shit like acting
She wants me to be a doctor or some shit
>>68783058
1. Because nobody cares about it
2. Because Japan doesn't even believe anyone but themselves care
3. It wasn't released outside of Japan
4. Japan has a small as fuck pool of non-Japanese actors, and most, if not all, can't past for teenagers
>>68783277
But, it's 5% in USA. It seems like, based on that, it's pretty representative - but if someone has the charts on these, it'd be greatly appreciated.
>>68783179
Oh, Japan is racist, sure, but they don't have non-Japanese actors, would you blame them for not being able to get non-Japanese actors?
>>68783370
>only 5%
wtf
>only 12.3% blacks
anyone else thought minority groups would be much larger than this?
>>68783256
The Ring was a remake set in America, everything was altered with that in mind. This movie is keeping the setting and the character's original Japanese name.

TV / film still stereotypes race and ethnicity (a lot) but you can't say casting percentages aren't representative of minorities.

>>68783124
>Americans look up to Japan and dream about being homogenous
>Japnese look up to America and dream about being diversified
>>68783541
People praised the shit out of Boyega, wtf are you talking about. He's America's hero of the month
>>68783587
Japan dreams about no such thing. The 2014 government poll revealed that 84% of Japanese wanted less foreigners.
It's sad that they're willing to accept potential extinction when they could follow in the footsteps of Germany and the rest of Europe and import millions of skilled foreigners.
It's retarded for sure, only complete autists care about the race of someone in a work of fiction.
But let's not forget the black stromtrooper causing a meltdown among people on here and other alt-right places, so it goes both ways.

>>68784524
Stormtroopers have no set race. The reason why it was a big win was because it was the first time an unspecified race didn't default to "white".
GITS is a problem because it's a Japanese woman with a Japanese name in Japan being cast by a white actor. We could have had Rinko Kikuchi, Lucy Liu, etc. but they chose a white actress and used computers to make her look asian.
That's almost as outrageous as yellowface in Cloud Atlas.

>>68783820
That's a chicken or the egg scenario, I remember there being criticism of casting a black person as a stormtrooper on here from the moment the actor was said to be in the movie, many months before any kind of remark by JJ Abrams.
>>68782207
>The US is supposed to be a heterogeneous nation
Says who? It was founded and developed by white people. Minorities were only ever used for menial tasks, but the actual foundations and framework was created by whites.
America, Australia, Canada, and the other British colonies are white. It's just under circumstance of labor deficiency that we've opened the door to non-whites. Doesn't make those countries "heterogeneous", it makes them shared.
I, as a white straight man, owe nothing to anybody of any other race, nor am I required to change either my own, or my people's ways, to suit the ways of others. If you can't deal with this, then go back to your people's country.

i don't give a shit what japanese people in japan think, i'm insulted that a movie studio thinks i won't go see an adaptation of an anime about a character with a japanese name, who lives in japan, unless that person is white
it's an anime, its exotic japaneseness is an intrinsic part of the appeal of the property and if the studio can't get such a basic part of the adaptation right why should I have any faith in the rest of their decisions?

OK this is what i don't get, so i was having coffee with a friend a few weeks back
>(me) have you heard they are making a dark tower movie?
>(friend) Yeah and Idris Elba is playing Roland! i think its great they are casting an actor based on their acting ability and not on there skin colour
two days ago i get coffee with the same friend
>(me) did you hear that Scarlett Johansson is playing the lead in the ghost in the shell movie!
>(friend) yeah its just awful that they are whitewashing, ITS ANIME! she should be played by a Japanese actress!
NIGGA WHAT!
make your god damn mind up
>>68790736
A "white" role going to a minority is not quite the same as a role being taken from a minority, particularly a minority that very rarely gets cast in a lead role for a movie, and given to a white actor. Especially when that role is in a movie that takes place in a setting where it makes sense to cast an Asian actor. And Idris Elba is a good actor, while Scarlet Johanson is not.
>>68775054
it ain't that she's white. it's that she can't fight and is a terrible actress. She doesn't fit the part and nobody currently in Hollywood could fit the part. This live action of Ghost in the Shell would be better off not being made.
>>68775083
lmao look at this cuck

>>68790736
Scarlett Johansson doesn't have much acting ability
>>68791538
>A "white" role going to a minority is not quite the same as a role being taken from a minority
it's exactly the same actually, its either race doesn't matter in casting or it does matter , you don't get to pick and choose, if a black guy can play a white character then a white woman can play an Asian character, and vise versa
>>68791765
i agree, however my friend wasn't concerned about that at all, he was focused completely on the "whitewashing"
>>68786881
You're proving his point. That very clearly shows that in top / major roles, minorities are underrepresented. Latinos and Asians in particular are underrepresented.
And before you try pointing out the "whites" number keep in mind that no one outside of /pol/ looks at Jewish actors and doesn't consider them to be white. The white and Jewish numbers should be lumped together.
>>68792526
I don't even care about representation, but I know you're full of bullshit.
People who care about proportions and representation should not be allowed to move goal posts. Jews are vastly overrepresented in Hollywood.
Like I said, I don't even care. They can hire more Jews and as long as the movies are fun I'll watch them, but don't ignore what's inconvenient.
