And now we've moved to touting "artistic vision" as if this one scene is the crux upon the entire movies message and theme is built upon. I'm absolutely not suggesting that a director submit every creative decision to a committee. I'm saying they should examine their own work as they create it, for problematic elements and eliminate those elements in the case that it's not intentional in delivering the messaging of the story. Turning Bruce Lee into a caricature is not necessary at all and using him as a vehicle to "stablishing badassery" is also unnecessary.
So you don't want a committee, you want self censorship. I still don't buy that.
And again, I'd argue that beating the fuck out of Bruce Lee is one hell of a way of stablishing badassery. I would also have accepted beating the fuck out of Clint Eastwood but sadly too many people think of him as a well preserved mummy that gets a director credit once in a while instead of Dirty Harry.
But you see, at this point the conversation has devolved into a conversation about submitting creative output to your own decency standards. And I'd argue that Tarantino shouldn't do that. Specially when there isn't even a consensus on wether jobbering Lee is actually racist.
