I heard that reasoning forever:
* It's fine that Hugo Weaving used prosthetic eyelids to look asian, the movie is about reincarnation across different ethnicities
* Emma Stone can play a half-asian half-white character since the character is half-white anyways.
* Ang and the other 3/4 principals can be white in The Last Airbender, since...???
* Mickey Rooney was being funny in Breakfast at Tiffany's, don't take it so seriously
Imagine being an asian-american actor and losing a role for Motoko Kusanagi to a caucasian actor, when the industry already has a long history of preferentially casting caucasian actors in at least the past 20-30 years, and before that basically always hired caucasian actors to play other ethnicities, not always very respectfully.
