In regards to this particular reply, you repeated what I already said in my personal comment part. xD
"Personally, I have to facepalm at the Avatar thing here, as well. Considering if you're casting whites in the role of characters who were originally Asian, that's changing the story for whatever reason, and basically going out of your way to make it white, which is ignorant. Also, their excuse there that they were the best actors for the job? If the job was to play such and such a character who looked like this, they should have followed it. >_>"
Aka, whitewashing. =P In the particular example of Avatar, I know it's made of major fail. xD
