What was Sandra Oh in?
Grace Park wins for me!
Can I vote for Major Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell?
If not, how about The Peanuts, Emi and Yumi Ito, the twin singers from Mothra Vs. Godzilla. As a kid I had a crush on them.
They're gorgeous. I've heard of or seen most of them.
Ming Na and Lucy Liu...
kelly hu... lovely. met her, she is one sweet lady... what about the little twin singer girls from mothra?
Sorry Pat. Nigel gave me an update and I added the picture. She was in Defendor.
Hi Maurice. Just to offer a different perspective. Your list proves these wonderful actresses are not as rare as one might think. When you think about it, minorities and Asian women have really made a significant impact. Firefly, Fringe, Stargate Universe, Stargate Atlantis, Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Enterprise, Pacific Rim and I'm not even counting our favorite anime and Godzilla films ;). You can't discount the powerful guest performances across the genre either. I understand your point but things have indeed changed significantly for the better. I hope Nigel enjoys his time off. sff
