Is the MCU X-MEN too doomed.

And so is Mongolia and that region of Asia.   What should a half English, half Mongolian look like? 

Kingsley, half English/half Indian, plays an Englishman who had plastic surgery and wore shades, playing a half English/half Mongolian..so any accusations of Whitewashing is ridiculous because he isn't actually playing a half Mongolian character.  The real Mandarin exists but we never see him.  If he appears in a later film then perhaps accusations of whitewashing can be made  depending on who is cast.

Robert Downey Jr paying and Australian actor playing an African American in Tropic Thunder isn't considrered whitewashing 

No, if the character in the film was not changed (as it was for what seems like understandable reasons) and played by Swinton then that would be Whitewashing.  They don't have her playing a race she is not.

Guess not, because I have no idea what you mean.  I always understood "Oriental" meant originating from (East) Asia


formersamhmd  said Iron Fist was disliked for political reasons (I assume the accusations of whitwashing)
You said  that was not the reason, and cited Dr Strange & Iron Man as I assum ed, being successful despite such accusations..

I'm responding to the assertions that those two films (and though  I should have mentioned it Iron Fist as well) aern't cases of whitewashing, or at least have more complicated circumstances which make the accusations not so black and white.

That's the way I read it
