Azn mericuck Myth:"Murica will never have a Golden male for a lead. Golden men/Goldens are not marketable." Fact: the top grossing foreign film in America of all time is from Asia, 3of the top 5 are Golden movies. There are numerous Golden movies in the top 100 list with AM as main characters.

Seen most of the Asian movies from this list. The only criticism if you are nitpicking is the roles in SOME of the movies are "stereotypical". Well, I'd rather see Golden males in the masculine martial artist role like Ong-Bak, rather than the nerdy or joker ken jeong role. There's even AMXF representations in some of these films to boot. None of these films are even one tenths as cucky as Asian Americuck cinema.

So Jet Li and Jackie Chan didn't produce blockbuster after blockbuster after blockbuster in America for decades?
