That largest economy in the world sure is backwards. Why doesn't the Chinese market love our black brethren? There's only one race, the human race after all.

Yeah, let's cut out the main character in the name of racism. The Chinese are going to be let down when Han and Leia aren't around much.

I'm sure "racism" is exactly the reason they made this strategic decision, not the pursuit of profit. They're sick racist KKK lunatics, those yellow bastards.

Personally I think the whole cast should be black, asian or hispanic...and talk in their regional dialects...you know, to prove that whites aren't racist.
