Re: Big Hero 6 White Washing Accusations

[(Anonymous)]

People are missing the point of revision by ten miles, at least. People of color aren't interchangeable, no, but these characters aren't based on real-life people. There's no one real that the movie is 'interchanging'. They took the concept of the comic books and revisited into something else that could appeal to a wider audience.

This wank-off is ridiculous to the point of being offensive. "Well, we could have had 5 Asian characters with a story set in Tokyo!!" which, yeah, but does that mean that you're perfectly ok with black people not getting a character? Also, are these people aware that the comic is based on anime/manga, so if you wanted to see a story set in Tokyo with Asian characters you could....watch an anime. But I guess that an entire multi-million dollar industry doesn't count because it wasn't made by disney.

At this moment i'm not picky about WHAT ethnic group is being represented because we're all getting the short end of the stick. If there were more original stories - not taken from obscure properties - I would appreciate that much more than just kind of shoving another group out of the way.

People are complaining about a lack of representation in American animation. I love anime, but it doesn't render Disney's whitewashing irrelevant.

It's still an important point to consider when the main complaint is "We could have had 5 Asian characters instead of 2 and a black dude". You can easily find a story with 5 Asian protagonists; there's no point in dwelling on where it came from. All this American animated movie did was adapt the story for its audience.
