Hey M Night, I heard you were casting for your new movie Avatar in Philadelphia today.
Also heard that despite the show being based on Asian culture and Asian mythology in general with the characters having Asian names, the casting call was mainly for non-Asians. Are you reserving the Asians to be extras so they can be beaten up by the nonAsian main characters?
If that's true, wouldn't you just be an uncle tom exploiting Asian culture like a colonialist for profit?
