Racist? oh yes lampooning honourable Mr Chan.

Forgive please but I'm not sure if it's racist to lampoon a genuinely racist trope.

Let's not forget that Gremlins (1984) managed to maintain this trope with a straight face without the yellow face (and with the real number one son).

Having sellers obviously not Chinese underlined for me just how silly the stories it was sending up were. The same goes for The Fiendish Plot Of Dr Fu Manchu (1980).

The Party (1968) however is genuinely racist as the character is meant to be a real 'very silly' Indian person not a representation of a story trope.
