It's been 20 years! Where is Jason Scott Lee??
Why has this guy disappeared and not done anything major?
shareI think Soldier was the last big movie he had a major role in which is a shame. I think he's a good actor.
DISPLAY thy breasts, my Julia!
LOL..never heard of it. Don't think he'll get a role as big as the Dragon.
shareYeah probably not.
DISPLAY thy breasts, my Julia!
He did "Hawaii Five O" not too long ago

It's still very hard for an Oriental actor to break out, especially a man.
shareIt's not 1978 or 1985 bro, nobody says "Oriental" anymore to refer to someone from the Far East. Asian is the preferred choice of word.
shareOriental is more accurate. Even Bruce Lee said Oriental. Asian can mean Indian, Paki, Iranian, Saudi, Sri Lankan, etc.
Jesus NEVER existed! He is Judeo Christian MYTH!
Oriental can also mean Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan, etc. But Oriental is considered an offensive term. Bruce Lee used the term in like 1966 or 1972. The term became offensive to use by the early or mid 80s. Since the late 80s, "Asian" is the choice word in North America to describe those from the Far East.
Yes it can technically encompass people from South Asia too, i.e. India and Sri Lanka, but it's overall better to use then calling someone Oriental. It's like calling someone who's of African heritage "colored" instead of "black" or "African American".
"Colored", along with "Oriental" just sounds so 1950s/1960s in how dated it is. People don't want to be called terms by what the ruling white majority used to refer to groups. Again this isn't the 1950s or 1970s anymore.
I don't see how Oriental can mean people from India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. They are Asians, but not Orientals.
