I guess it might be extended to some cartoons, Trixie Tang from the cartoon "the Fairly Oddparents", some writers don't go further to explore her hidden tomboy side and more portrayed in a bad way in some episodes like "just the two of us" thinking then she's only a rich b...
I don't really see Trixie as being stereotypically Asian. In fact the thought she could be Asian didn't occur to me until you posted this. I always assumed her last name was an obvious reference to female anatomy. lol

Some folks on various forums and on Wikipedia, think then she might be Asian.

I guess she possibly could be. Maybe also half Asian. I probably need to watch the show more. Still going with her name being a dirty joke though since she's the one Timmy wants and can never acquire. Space Cake has appeared in the show after all, so people shouldn't put it past them. xd

Yeah, so the trailer for the new Tekken movie just came out. The lead, Jin Kanzama, is played by a half-Chinese, half-white actor who looks pretty white. He's supposedly a martial artist, but does anyone else see a trend here in regards to the previously mentioned film? I will also mention that Jin is Japanese and not Chinese. But they're all the same, right? I think Spike Lee needs to make a movie about this at this point.

New Tekken movie is written by the guy that wrote "Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever", all three "Wrong Turn" movies, "Spawn" and yes, "The Marine".

There is no hope for this movie. None.

Oh, and the actor playing Yoshimitsu is NOT AT ALL ASIAN. I realize Yoshimitsu was probably going to be 90% makeup and CGI anyway, but they didn't even get someone from East Asia.

Yeah, the trailler has a scene where one of the fighters yell, "This is Iron Fist!" Real original screen writing there.
