UHHHHH...have you seen 16 candles? Remember Long Duk Dong? Do you know William Hung, the freak? How about all those movies that depict Asians as gangsters or know Kung Fu? How many Asian Denzel Washingtons have you seen? How many Asian Will Smiths have you seen (both Will and Denzel are portrayed as extremely intelligent, honorable, and courageous people)?
If you're just trying to point out that Asian stereotypes exist in our popular culture, then fine. I can't really argue with that. But if you're using media and pop culture exposure as a metric for race relations, then I really have to question your methodology.
