because the diverse cast was "whitewashed" from the comic it's based (VERY loosely) on. so the diversity doesn't count. because if the movie had failed due to social justice outrage over "whitewashing," disney would know from the low ticket sales that that was the problem, and would create even less white casts in the future. certainly they would not assume that the film had failed BECAUSE of the diverse cast and make more white white white films. oh no, never.

The irony being that I remember reading the comic way back when, and it was... not the most dignified treatment of Asian cultures. It's been a long time, and I don't remember all the details, but it struck me as having been written by a white guy who had seen a few Godzilla movies and maybe an episode or two of a late '80s/early '90s anime as the entirety of his exposure to Asian culture.
