As for this movie hell it wouldn’t have mattered if they chose a black person to play Aang and I wouldn’t have had problem with it because I could careless about skin color or how things “should be” as you said the movie should have all Asians in the lead roles. So forget you die hard twat fans who complain about COLOR. Rather the point should be that the cast, the writers, and directors they all worked hard to do a fun adventurous film and that’s all it is. Why don’t you look back two years from now and re-read your idiotic comment here I guarantee you will come to realize that you are in the same dump of alife you’ve always been in despite your crap comments since the day you read Rathobone’s interview here.

Wow. This is offensive beyond the pale.

Sounds like Jesse described YELLOWFACE, which is just as offensive as BLACKFACE, or YELLOWFACE.

This movie should have Asian actors in the lead role. You cannot look at still from the show and say that an all white cast is not problematic.

Imagine if for Harry Potter they cast a boy with blonde hair for the lead? Harry Potter fans would be protesting because his hair color is explicitly mentioned in the books.

Why then, in this case, the issue of the characters’ race being changed brushed aside by the filmmakers as a legitimate problem?
