www.sssdao.com/?thread-399.htm好莱坞正在渐渐拥抱多样化,正如迪士尼拥有这个收入破纪录的一年,显然因为拥抱多样化。但是亚洲市场是美国电影多样化最大的障碍。出于某些原因,东亚观众喜欢白人角色而不喜欢除他们外的其他少数族裔角色。有个著名的故事是,在亚洲版《星球大战:原力觉醒》海报中他们把约翰·波耶加撤下了,因为他们认为这样有损于票房,(东亚人)不喜欢在电影里看到黑人。一个著名美国影评人说《神奇动物》是她过去四年来看到的最”白人“的大片,但它却是在中国表现最好的一部大片。她说亚洲人不喜欢他们自己,因为好莱坞认为对亚洲的人物和特征”白人“化是能被接受的,这正是因为亚洲观众喜欢白人电影。
So it is a double edge sword. In the historical Japanese story 47 Ronin they inserted Keanue Reeves as the Eurasian main character. Edge Of Tomorrow the story of a Japanese soldiers soldiers fighting aliens in Tokyo suddenly became Tom Cruise and Emily blunt fighting aliens in London. Ghost In the Shell cast the Robot lead with an Asian name as Scarlet Johansson and the worst of all is the move 21 the true story of Asian American students taking on the casinos suddenly became a biopic where the Asian students became white students. This is before you talk other movies like Last Airbender and Dragon Ball Z that whitewashed Asian iconic characters. It is going to continue with Di Caprio going into production about re-making the Japanese manga Akira with him as Akira. If Asian audiences support movies with whitewashing then it is going to happen. When African Americans boycotted Gods Of Egypt and Exodus for still trying to portray Egyptians as white when they never were both movies flopped and Hollywood stopped the production on all movies that portrayed Egyptians as white. So maybe Asians needs to calm down on their white western obsession for their own cultural health.
所以这是一柄双刃剑。在日本历史题材的《四十七浪人》中,他们加入了基努·里维斯这个欧亚混血的角色。《明日边缘》——关于日本战士在东京与外星人战斗的故事,突然就变成了汤姆·克鲁斯和艾米莉·布朗特在伦敦与外星人作战。《攻壳机动队》给了机器人首领一个亚洲名字(此处应该是西方名字)——斯佳丽·约翰逊。。。etc。。。
如果亚洲观众支持”白人“化的电影,那么这些就会发生。当非裔美国人因为埃及人被描绘成白人而联合抵制《神战:权力之眼》和《出埃及记》的时候,好莱坞不得不停止将任何埃及人描绘成白人(大概吧)。所以为了它们的文化健康,亚洲人大概需要降低他们对西方白人的痴迷。

Personally I see this putting on pedestal of white western culture in East Asian countries a result of the colonialism and historical military defeats by Western Powers has greatly damaged the Asian psyche where they seek validation of their culture in White Westerners.
在我看来,这是殖民主义以及历史上西方强国打败东亚国家而产生的后果,这严重的损害了亚洲人的心智,所以他们才会通过西方白人来确证自己的文化。
