        And what's wrong with a white man directing #mulan? Did Brokeback Mountain suck because a straight Taiwanese director made it?

        There is nothing wrong with a white male directing the movie. These people are just making a problem when there isn't one.

        I don't believe that all our stories should be told from a white male perspective. IT IS A PROBLEM. A big one.

        Then you need to watch movies made elsewhere. There is Bollywood, Hallyuwood(Korea), Chinese mega flicks.

        This is why I laugh at Asian American actors complaining about #whitewashing, they can move to Asia if they don't like.

        I wouldn't go that far, but I agree a white man director is definitely not a problem.
