Well they've got Hailee Steinfeld right there.Could be an old character they're changing. For example, if they're going to use the original 5 X-Men from the start then at least one probably shouldn't be white.
Seeing an international representation of my own country is exciting, but it would be more exciting to see them also representing my own ethnicity. I hope that's not too controversial of a take.Oh I understand where you are coming from now, Agree but Singaporen and Malaysian are still Singaporen and Malaysian regardless of their race/ethics man.
None at all.Seeing an international representation of my own country is exciting, but it would be more exciting to see them also representing my own ethnicity. I hope that's not too controversial of a take.
She checks off three boxes: Jewish, Filipino and Black. lol
I don't think their point is that the Chinese ethnic group is not actually part of the country they're born in. Mine is certainly not and I'm sorry if it come off that way. It's just that it would be nice, personally, to actually have ethnic representation too.None at all.
I am just not comfortable with comments that a specific race is not part of their nationality because of their race.
We have enough of China trying to stir up issues in the region, no we are loyal to our own country and does not look to China as the motherland.
No he doesn’t. Mantis is an amalgamation of various submissive Asian female stereotypes and he definitely doesn’t need to accentuate them.Feige needs to retcon Mantis again. She was Vietnamese in the comic.
It does not need to be 100% comic accurate. Look at Man-Ape - M'Baku.No he doesn’t. Mantis is an amalgamation of various submissive Asian female stereotypes and he definitely doesn’t need to accentuate them.
Basically how every Pakistani, Bengali or Sri Lankan feels when a character is Indian/has neutral Indian Subcontinent vibes but neither here nor there. Same applies to Arabs despite there being massive differences between them as well.Not sure where you reside, but their has always been a bit of internal fighting when it comes to our representation in Hollywood. When that happens it's mostly from East Asians(Chinese, Koreans, Japanese). The rest of us also clamor for our chances and our stories to be told. So yeah I would be disappointed if the person casted ended up being an ethnic Chinese from SE Asia being chosen as the SE Asian rep. Not because I don't count them, but because the rest of us are under represented.
A somewhat similar issue is when Asian Americans get passed up for roles that ends up going to established stars from Asia. But it's not as difficult to get that message across compared to this where I get that some people may see my comment as problematic.
Aboriginal AustralianHailee is part filipino so maybe she is the one he's talking about? Is Bishop filipino?
Nah that's 40s casual racism
I don’t think they’re gonna do this. She got very little Filipino ancestry in her. Her grandfather was half-Filipino. I think they’re just gonna roll with Kate being American.Hailee is part filipino so maybe she is the one he's talking about? Is Bishop filipino?
