Paul W.S Anderson Karriere auf der großen Leinwand könnte durch einen dummen rassistischen Witz über Asiaten zu Ende sein. Monster Hunter wurde in China verboten. Capcom hat eine Stellungnahme veröffentlicht, worin sie sich von dem Film distanzieren.
Update: Theaters exhibitors just got new notification that the plan of releasing new copies(removing the scene) of Monster Hunter have been suspended.
It almost means it's banned here. https://t.co/ckqflJcu2w

Anyway, this is going down about as well as you'd expect in China where it's being linked to the rhyme / phrase "Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees – look at these?" which is considered offensive. pic.twitter.com/pQCFNQ86Je

Der Witz:
Chi-i-nese – “eyes slanted up using your fingers”
Jap-a-nese – “eyes slanted down doing the same”
Dir-ty Knees – “slapping your knees with your hands”
Look-at-these – “pulling your shirt out with your fingers, making you appear that you have a big set of boobies.”
Der Film scheint darüber hinaus noch problematisch zu sein:
Such as Tony's character asking milla(an american soldier) for chocolt many times,(american soldiers use it to get laid with jp females & show their ''kindness'' after ww2) And all hunters are more like savages aompared with milla, and they are all asians,too, unsurprisingly
