When you take what is clearly Asian and turn the skin white and go: "Nope! Not Asian. Ours now!"

To me what's lame isn't when a culture borrows something from another, it's when Hollywood says "well an Asian person can't be the star of *INSERT BLOCKBUSTER HERE* because the part's not for Asians". Then they get a movie where there would finally be a starring role for an Asian person ... and they give it Scarlet Johansen. That seems a little F-ed up to me.
There's no reason why every race can't have heroes who resemble them, and yet because of how Hollywood works if you're not white you have very few cinematic ones to choose from.
