The vast majority of the major cast was white.

I can appreciate the themes of unity and transcendence in this movie, and even though I cringed at the trailer, I loved the book, so I gave the movie a fair shot. The intentions were good, the execution was not, because when they did casting, that did erase minorities, since there was an opportunity for Asians (aside from Bae Doona and Zhou Xun) to be cast in major roles, and instead we got white actors in Asian makeup.

Given that Asian-American actors/creators already have an uphill battle in the film industry with getting roles or works out there, the racebending in this movie was disappointing.
