Welcome to Movie Mandates, a review show in which sibling cinephiles Andrew and Keleigh force each other to watch movies according to a monthly theme!  Dinosaurs month concludes with Keleigh’s mandated movie: ONE OF OUR DINOSAURS IS MISSING!  A very not racist Disney movie from the 1975 fearing a large cast of Chinese characters played by white guys!  Except for that one dude way in the background.  See him?  No, not that one.  That’s a white guy in yellowface too.  A bit to the left.  Nope that’s also a white guy.  Further to the left.  Yeah, there he is!

Now, before you start bringing out the pitchforks, remember, China wasn’t discovered until 1978 and Disney felt really bad when they learned that they could have been using Chinese actors this whole time.  If only they’d known of their existence!
