Generally being a coward and/or the bad guy who betray the hero. Also femme fatale sexual objectification.
Jayden Perry
Not
Adrian Moore
>Also femme fatale sexual objectification.
French women are also always portrayed as impossible to get for an average joe.
You all have this. I think it's pretty cool.

Caleb Robinson
The smart people and have a very posh accent.
(however, most of the UK have unintelligible accents and can't understand a word of what eachother are saying)
Julian Lee
Traitor, coward, arrogant, effeminate, etc
everytime
centuries old anglo-saxon propaganda, by the time it's impossible now to have a frenchman in american and english movies who isn't a complete faggot
Carson Garcia
Here in the states we have a stereotype of a low intelligence, thugish cockney accented Brit so it isn't ALL smart people with posh accents.
Jaxson Hernandez
Doesn't help that you completely cuck yourself for jamal and Muhammad.
Joseph Parker

Wyatt Gonzalez
>typical French in our anime

Only japan cares about us by putting us in anime or games. And its almost always some turbo dyke psycho with knives or guns.
Benjamin Collins
Jason Bourne also has a terrible accent (it's actually fairly good, but it's still obvious for a Dutch person).
Jonathan Long
Hmm, I didn't run a cross anything that shows Croats.
Bob Dylan said we were the worst butchers in the world, so there is that.
Jackson Collins
>always some drunken guy

Aiden Cooper
some samurai or yakuza or something like that
back in the days it was pretty much like the modern chinks in the ugliest way. and i guess chinks actually were less stereotypical and getting more decent roles than those 70s 80s "japs"
i dont really wanna see them in foreign media now, and dont even know what is the modern stereotype.
Jonathan Lopez
some black user should scoop up all of the anime dub black roles

Full african blacks are less than 8%.
Blacks normally here are mixed.

>tfw no spirit-musician that is charming na stunning other people
Jonathan Roberts
Mexico is a large country that has a variety of terrains. The party next to the USA, however, is largely desert. We're the ones who portray Mexico the most often and that's the part we know, so we show them as a desert perhaps a little too much.

Nolan Lewis
I think you people are talking vidya, in American movies it tends to be criminals a la Danny Trejo or seductive hotties a la Jessica Alba. That or Mexicans work as a stand in for a helpless people the American hero must save. There's also the comic relief/sidekick role, which is more common on tv. In all fairness portrayal of Mexicans is starting to get better.
Ian Davis
everything north of Tuxtla is like mexico, with sombreros
Gavin Hughes

Juan Foster
I can't think of any foreign media even featuring my country since it's irrelevant and basically considered sweden minor by outsiders.
Tyler Lewis
Uhh, well.....
Cooper Lee

There is no better depiction of Americans than In Bruges.
Austin Bailey

Russians in American media:

Cold, calculating super-spies/James Bond villains

Drug addict mob bosses/Chechen terrorists

I think Finland is the only country where Swedes are allowed to have negative stereotypes.

Joshua Thomas
It depends, the US have a completely screwed view of Italy, think about Family Guy, they think Italians live exclusively in little villages in Tuscany, always seems to show an annoying and disgusting little old lady for some reason... the strip us of our culture, think about classical music and elegance and depict us like peasants from the 1800, complete nonsense.
Japan usually show real respect for Italy and its actual culture, think about series like Devil May Cry and all the references to our culture, names, architecture etc. etc. much love for the Japanese.
Juan Campbell
Don Fernandos, pasional and romantic people. Recently i have seen some anime in which spaniards appear to be portrayed as some kind of nerds/weebs.

He's right, you know. When average burger haven't left his home state (or county), tv memes fill their head.
Colton Turner
>negative stereotypes
Why did you post positive one?
Zachary Brown
For me Mexico will always be Tuco Ramirez (the ugly) from the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, best movie ever made.
Joseph Thompson
I have seen many bad things in western media, like the bad guy being a german or germans being nazis and stuff. Anime is a bit different; I have seen many different portrayals there, positive, neutral and negative. The most famous example would be Asuka from Evangelion or the whole Monster series. About the way characters look like in Anime it's mostly the usual "blonde hair and big noses" thing they do with all europeans.
Isaiah Morgan
We've had some more flattering portrayals but definitively Tuco was one of the best.

German nose is as flat as Japanese.
Jeremiah Kelly
Zorro has had his good moments in cinema but it's a whole mess as to whom it belongs to. Americans will claim him, Chicanos will claim him, Spaniards will claim him. It's a whole mess.
