Stereotypes in Movies/TV

The latest stereotype I've seen in a movie is the 2012 comedy, Ted starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis. John (Wahlberg) was at a house party hosted by his best friend Ted, a live teddy bear along with the real life Flash Gordon actor San Jones. Jones, after being coked up at the party, punched through a wall. Ming (typical Chinese name), Ted's neighbor is furious with a hole in his wall, frantically screamed and yelled with a heavily strong accent, holding a butcher's knife threatening to kill Jones as he approached the party. To sum this all up, an angry Chinese man holding a butchers knife screaming with a strong accent was the producer's portrayal of a Chinese man. In another scene from this film, John was checking out Ted's new apartment and asked about his next door neighbor. Ted responded, "Well they're Chinese and luckily they don't have a gong so I don't see any problems." Another great example of a very childish stereotype. They believed that all Chinese people bang their gongs loudly. This is not true.
