Boycott 21 DVD


The DVD for 21 gets released today. Continue to boycott 21, since "The main characters of Bringing Down the House are Jeff Ma and Mike Aponte, former real-life MIT students who are both Asian American men. Jeff Ma is played by Jim Sturgess, Mike Aponte is played by Jacob Pitts, and John Chang is played by Kevin Spacey." Asian roles all got white-washed. Later in the casting process, a couple supporting characters who were Asians were added including Aaron Yoo as "Choi" and Liza Lapira as "Kianna."
