Check out the movie Saving Face if you haven't seen it before. Touching story with some damn hilarious pokes at common stereotypes...at least of Chinese culture.
thanks for the suggestion :) i've never heard of this movie (which is annoying in and of itself)

I personally really love Melinda May from agents of shield! There's also Joan from elementary!
i do like them as characters, but ming na wen, lucy liu, and sandra oh are kind of the only "big" names in asian hollywood, and that's just a shame. also, despite their talent, they're rarely talked about or publicized. i guess what i'm saying is, not only do i want well rounded asian characters, i feel like there should be much more representation of asian actors and actresses too
(and don't get me started on the boring old tropes that the very few characters always always get forced into)
