Doesn't really matter to me at all. Of course, I prefer to look at it on a character to character basis.
For example: Marvel's Wolverine: A short white dude supposably. So they cast Hugh Jackman, a tall actor, which is fine as it is easy to manipulate and he is great.
Let's say instead they cast Aisha Tyler to be Wolverine, now that would be ridiculous.
Or they cast a non Japanese as Yukio, seems like a bad idea.
Now remakes are pretty fair game in my book, even though USA has plenty of Japanese Americans to fulfill the role in Ghost in the Shell. The producers still want to make a profit and hiring a A lister is their best bet. When the Japanese film industry remakes Hollywood movies, they definitely do not hire the plentiful white dudes willing to take the role, they hire a Japanese A lister
