    Yes, Keanu is half Japanese, so him playing a half Japanese character in a movie makes sense. Tom Cruise being associated with the last Samurai of the shogun era makes no sense, this is Chewbacca, Chewbacca is a wookie, why would he hang out on the planet Endor with a bunch of ewoks? It makes no sense.

    I’ve seen it, I’m just making a point that Keanu is actually half Japanese so he should be able to play a character of somewhat Asian descent without complaint, especially when the character he played in 47 Ronin was only half Japanese and all the characters shit on his character because of that. It wasn’t a ground breaking movie and there are plenty of reasons to shit on it, but the race card isn’t one of them.
