                               Is the new Ghost in the Shell live action Movie really whitewashing? 



  Hi there, my loyal viewers. I'm finally back from my college for summer, so sorry about the long silent treatment in my account and so I really want to thanks all of you loyal viewers and new comers/watchers for your generous support to my webpage, because of all your supports I have hit 42,733+ page views and over 848+ watchers, and now to the more important announcement.La la la la

  Today Special announcement, after Scarlett Johansson had agree to signed with Dream Works to star in their live-action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell. Originally, The Wolf of Wall Street's Margot Robbie was in talks to star in the film. Those talks apparently went nowhere, as Deadline says that they've heard $10 million is DreamWorks' offer. That's apparently the amount Johansson now commands as a action star, given that she's now a proven quantity in that arena. I think the movie is going to be great, but now after the new picture of Scarlett Johansson role playing as Major Motoko Kusanagi who is augmented-cybernetics or call a Cyborg and looks more white then Asian or Japanese if the viewers don't really follow the series, cause some feminist and anime extremist out there to flip shit and complain just for the sake of complaining about nothing because they have too much time on their hands and complaining in the name of being a attention whore. (Yes, that's right you anime extremist out there, you know who you are and who I'm referring to).

Apparently they are complaining this time because they say that Major Kusanagi is supposed to be Japanese even though she looks white and a Cyborg, casting Scarlett Johansson for the role of Major is still consider as Whitewashing.  And that cause Dream Works to back track and try to use special effects to test to see if they can make Scarlett Johansson more Asian?



Really now, where were all you anime extremist and feminist out there when they cast a white man to play as goku who don't even look white or when the Japanese director decide to fuck up Attack on Titans by casting an all Japanese casts when they were suppose to be play by Germans or whites (if their German names didn't give it away already?) So apparently now that some fans out there care more about the back story of character then her actual visual appearance in the anime and would do anything to shame a movie before it is even put into production, are you for real?( I though anime fans should have at least judge the success of the movie base on the writing and not base on if it is whitewashing or not) To be honest does it even matter who plays the role of major(Japanese or white) if the writing for this movie suck, a shitty movie is still a shitty movie even if it was play by a Japanese.

  In fact this is what some anime expert out there say about this movie; give it a chance before shaming it.:



For all you anime extremist or feminist out there who did not complain about how they Asian-washing a German populated anime like Attack on Titans, like this feminist below, please do the rest of anime fans a favor and crawl back under the rock where you crawl out from.




   
  The second announcement is that Japanese can't handle the fact that they are not white, don't look white but still want to be white. (in order to avoid further whitewashing in anime films, please do yourself and the world a favor and draw yourself more Asian then white.)

This is what social justice has become; a means to whine about issues that shouldn't matter, like a character being played by an actor or actress that isn't the character's skin color or race.

Social Justice is noise pollution at this point. We all know Hollywood can't make a live action anime movie to save its life, but we shouldn't be so petty over how Motoko doesn't look Asian. Not every anime/manga character is Asian and makes those who complain about this movie just to whine about Scarlet having the lead role look childish.

We, the people have to let the media know we won't stand for social justice ruining our entertainment anymore.
