Dragon Ball Evolution & the "Goku Problem" (Part 2)

Basically, I am going to break down some of the things I've heard people say to dismiss the fact that Goku hasn't been well cast. Goku should have been Asian and obviously not any Asian person but someone who suits the part ENTIRELY. And at least if he was to be Caucasian, in the very least it should have been by someone much, much better. The choices made in regards to casting(AND ROSHI'S APPEARANCE? NO KRILLIN??)reflect a movie that is being made wrecklessly, without care and without the thoughts of fans all over the world in mind.

Before bashing this, try watching all my clips entirely.

I understand that Fox IS making this movie, and I am humble with the fact that what's done is done. However, I am uncomfortable with the level of ignorance people have in regards to this topic and are making light of something some take seriously. I am not Asian, but I respect and understand what is happening in Hollywood in regards to Asians AND other minorities (women, gays, Blacks, Hispanics, religious etc.). I am just focusing on one branch of the tree.

Note this is MY view and perspective on this issue. Feel free to disagree all you want, but that hardly means you should personally insult those who feel this way about this movie as OUR reasons are legitimate and OUR opinions are JUST AS entitled as yours.

I by no means claim ownership of any images or music used in the video and credit is given where due.
