[Big Hero 6]

[(Anonymous)]

I can only assume when people say they don't look Japanese enough, they mean "They don't fit the squinty eyed, round faced stereotype in my head." Now, the fun if trying to figure out if that is a sjw comment or a skinhead comment

[morieris]

I really hope that comments like that wear down closer to the film re: Hiro is not """Japanese enough""" (and the fact that he's getting a Face Character).

[(Anonymous)]

I don't really get comments like these. You don't see any possible range of features between "literally Hiccup and Rapunzel" and "bucktoothed WWII stereotype"? None at all? It's just either of those two things, full stop?

[iggy]

I've yet to see anyone explain specifically how Hiro should 'look more Asian'.

Probably because it would be racist as fuck if they attempted to do so.

[sporkly]

Love the usernames you choose here.

[kallanda_lee]

Came here to say.

[kaijinscendre]

I am honestly surprised they are not real.

[peablossom]

Maybe it's just cause I've had a long day, but I have no idea what this is trying to say.

[morieris]

It took me a moment too...and I'm still not sure...I just kind of waited for comments.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, same here, and I'm too tired to try to make sense of it.

[queerwolf]

I don't either, and I've read it several times.

[elaminator]

I thought I got it for a minute... Then I finished reading and went, “Wait, what?” So idk either.

(Haven't read the comic, know jack shit about the film, but I saw a trailer before Guardians and think this looks adorable and hilarious. So... I'm kind of looking forward to it now, but I'll stay away from the fandom. It sounds like a huge mess.)

[(Anonymous)]

I feel like the Big Hero 6 race wank is just a mess, and by that I mean even messier then the normal Disney wank.

Like I kind of like that they have a black character and a mixed race character? But I wouldn't say that unanon because apparently I am supposed to have rooted for them all to be Japanese?

[(Anonymous)]

You're probably right. I'm glad they diversified the cast somewhat; it's not like there aren't series/movies with all-Japanese casts already.

[mekkio]

I agree with you on how there would be some people complaining that Disney chose to make an all Japanese movie over whatever more oppressed group of the week they think is more deserving.

Like, "Disney is doing an all Japanese movie but when are we going to to see an all lesbian movie? Bigots." or "Disney is doing an all Japanese movie. Of course you'll never see an all Middle Eastern Muslim movie. They'll never touch that. Bigots."

[philippos42]

Those are some interesting knots in your head. I can sympathize, having had some pretty weird takes on things myself.

[(Anonymous)]

I guarantee no one complaining about this read the comics.

They probably decided to make Fred and Honey Lemon white* because they didn't want to have explain in the movie that those aren't their real names.

*If Honey Lemon is, because arguably it looks like her comic version.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree that wank would exist no matter what because fandom is full of malcontents, but idk, it still would've been better to have an all-Japanese cast, I think.

Truthfully, I don't care much about the humans. The big white squishy robot is so, sooo fucking cute ♥

[(Anonymous)]

Am I the only one who doesn't QUITE understand the secret? OP says they think whitewash wank is stupid but there would be wank if it was an American product about a solely Japanese cast anyway (I think that's a "probably" because Disney draws wank more than other shit) but the N/S and S parts are just the same opinion - that the wank is unjustified because who cares and possibly wank for sake of wank. But then OP says that the comic wasn't whitewashed and if it was, they'd be pissed, too. What the hell does that mean? Is the source material American? Are the characters originally white? I don't have the context to get this!

[(Anonymous)]

Everything I've seen tells me the original comic was horribly racist in itself and Disney actually lessened a lot of the racism.

[rbhudson]

Who the fuck would complain about an all-Japanese cast? Your logic is severely flawed, OP.

[gabzillaz]

sigh

If they followed the comic? Yeah, people would complain, probably because the comic had a lot of shitty stuff. If they improved on it? Nah, why would people that want diversity complain about a 100% japanese cast?

Disney whitewashed two characters (one of them Ainu) for the movie. From the original cast, only one character remains 100% asian.

[(Anonymous)]

I'd rather wank about the fact that a racially-problematic comic for teens was turned into an everything-problematic bubble gum movie for babies. This is not what I want from the Disney/Marvel merger and I don't think the movie will be respectful of what Chris Claremont created.

And there's nothing Disney could do about race wank. If they do anything involving human beings, there will be race wank. I remember the development of The Frog Princess. Fucking SJWs RUINED that movie by pushing Disney to ignore the actual racial background of the 1920s to make something more sellable to white folks.

[(Anonymous)]

I kinda feel like I'm missing out or seeing something that others are missing? My opinion is based solely on the ONE trailer I saw before GotG. It said it was set in "San Frantokyo" or some shit. My assumption was that it was set so far into the future where race is a non-issue. Not saying that everyone is "white" but that it's set in a place I assume the majority of people have some white and asian in them, yet no one considers themselves "white" or "asian." If that makes sense.
