Masshole James and now you too!?!

Sure. We can agree to disagree.

Why would Cho want to play a Tibetan man? Her entire act seems to be about playing herself: an American woman of Korean descent. Has she ever done anything else?

It doesn’t really and I’ll tell you why: Swinton and Cho could have a perfectly pleasant conversation and yet, on second thought, Cho could feel she was “othered” and used as a token and be mad about it. If Swinton wanted to really learn about this issue the most obvious thing to do would be contact a university to…

No, but if you have a chance to think about it and feel the person who engaged with you was “othering” you and didn’t feel like staying mum about it, why should you? Swinton is every bit able to contact a professor of Asian studies if she wanted to learn something instead of get a cookie from someone who had nothing…

I think that for some reason you’re not getting the point that just asking some random Asian woman to discuss this was already being rude, clueless and unprofessional. Why in the world would Swinton assume Cho would know anything about it? Cho had nothing to do with that project. Why would her name pop into Swinton’s…

Having not seen every Tibetan I have no idea if they could have exactly that nose and like I said, that’s a minor detail, anyone can see she is styled to look Asian inspired and that’s wrong always but especially under the circumstances.

Still like you, but cannot tell a lie.

Yes, whenever I see one of them I know it’s some twit, but which twit? No idea.

Not shade, but accurate as hell though.

N. Just n.

Lol, you’ve never seen an Asian person with a straight nose? Even if that minor detail were true, everything else about her styling implies an Asian style including the shaved head a la Buddhist monk/nun.

Sorry, but I think you only owe respect to people who are being respectful and considerate. No Asian, no person, is anyone’s token anything.

Right in every way.

Why does Cho have to keep Swinton’s “confidences”? She’s not Tilda’s therapist, minister, professor even her friend. Some chick got offered a role and took it, if she really wanted to know about the controversy regarding the casting why not act like a professional and get professional advice from, say, a professor of…

I think the real annoyance here doesn’t just stem from them casting a non Asian but then fixing her up to look Asian nonetheless. If you didn’t know Swinton was white, could you tell from how she looks in this movie?

You’d better, at least, have her favorite sort of writing tool with you. If a thought had come to her just as she was falling asleep, your execution might be put off as she goes on a writing spree but otherwise...run!

Sounds pretty much like what I heard.

Oh, because you think this happened exactly as crybaby is claiming and he didn’t say or do anything to start this or keep it going.

Isn’t a star just something your studio buys for you?
