just
>>
>>27861958
Because of racism obviously. White is the dominant culture, so they ensure the films represent this to perpetuate the power relations.

Same thing happens with a lot of media and film. Oldboy, the Egypt movie, Avatar last airasshole, etc.

She's a full body replacement cyborg, she can look white if she wants to.

Nips don't usually care about this stuff, unlike the intellectually and culturally inferior East Asians (Chinks and Gooks).

For instance, they made a live-action Attack on Titan move with Asian actors, even though most of the characters in the anime are supposedly Germanic. Is it somehow wrong when another culture wants to do it?
>>
>>27861958
What am I looking at exactly?
Original into post box

>>27862505
Yeah i saw the Oldboy film on netflix recently with the white actor. It was shit, the original is the best.
>>
>>27861958
I'm more annoyed at the fact that's its a jewess who can't act for shit.


then again I suppose she's playing a robot

You aren't entitled to Asians in Hollywood.

I'm fine with just white and black and Jewish actors desu
>>
This looks like it's straight out of 2005......
>>
Because it gives a Jew a high paying job, and 'white people' will take the blame for it.

It's genius, really.

Kike manipulation wins again.

>>27862581
This is actually a good point but I just think she looks asian in the anime and movies.

>>27862642
Yeah, but I guess that in Japan they don't have enough white japanese speaking actors and paying for a foreignet must be quite difficult and expensive.
But there are a lot of asian americans in the states, so its not quite the same thing. but I get there is hardly any scarlett johansons' asian equivalent in term of her fame and shit
>>
>>27863633
>she looks asian in the anime and movies.
does she have yellow skin, wide nose and squinty eyes?
>>
>>27863008
Scarlett Johanson plays the main roke of liveaction Ghost in the Shell that is originaly asian/cyborg(not just parts are robotic she has actually all robot body even her brain just her thought and soul)
>>
>we need MORE DIVERSITY in Hollywood!

Cant make this shit up.

I thank my stars everytime a Hollywood adaptation falls through.

>>
>>27863668
If you compare her to white characters from Ghost in the Shell you'd see how MOTOKO KUSANAGI is Asian. She has a less prominent nose, a wider face, and a mongoloid skeletal structure compared to soldiers and diplomats from the American Empire.

I don't really have a problem with her ethinicity, because I'm not a SJW. But isn't Motoko supposed to be pretty butch? Scarlett Johansson looks like she might break.

It's been a while since I've seen GitS, though (I'm a post-2010 kind of weeb), so someone correct me if I'm wrong.

It all depends on the body she chooses but her original organic body was Asian. Her most known tech-body is Asian/Happa muscular or at least very /fit/ body of a mercenary.
She changed her "Shell" many times before, I guess they can put her into a skinnyfat jew but we've never seen that in the series. They really should put her into some Asian or happa actress.

Anyway, Japan will have their ravage with the new Godzilla movie...

Because anime girls aren't drawn as Asians. They're drawn as white people.
>>
>>27861958
Because white people are more attractive than asians and people don't pay money to see ugly people.

That's the common knowledge, still for that particular role, even if you had to pick a white actress, there are other actresses that would bring a lot more soul into it.
Oh though it is too bad the upcoming Fullmetal Alchemist live action will have full jap cast...

>>27865598
>That nose and lips though

She's Jewish, bro.

Cut her some slack.
>>
>>27861958

Because marketing. Getting a big name in the movie is how you sell movies (or so they think) and no Asian actresses are big enough. Meanwhile, Scarjo did the Avengers as a sexy catsuit agent and also did that Lucy movie as some kind of female superhero protagonist, so she's obviously qualified (in their eyes).

Who would actually fit the role best is often not the top consideration.

>>27865896

That's actually not true, anime characters read as Japanese to Japanese people. Cartoons are abstractions of the human form, not realistic renderings, so drawing those conclusions based on things like eye size and hair color is dumb.
>>
>>27861958
She's to limp and femme-y to play the Major. Ugh. AAAAUGH.

>>27864704
>>27864038
>character literally named Motoko Kusanagi
>white supremacists grasping at every straw in the world to pretend like she's not meant to be Japanese
Anime characters have eyes and hair of all colors, dumbfucks.
Also, cartoon features that aren't based on stereotypes made up by white people don't imply white features at all.

What?
>>
>>27866524
Japanese people see Japanese features in anime characters, not white features.
The concept of this is alien to white people because they constantly draw bullshit caricatures of Asian people and mistake them for reality.
>>
>>27866698
Japanese see characters in anime and manga despite their Caucasian characteristics as Japanese. It might be not deliberate, they may just want to add a little bit more diversity or it might be just an art style thing. Still, it's a fact that most anime characters have non asian characteristics >>27864053
