to see many of your Asian film postings.
None of the better Asian directors I like go "exotic."
Zhang Ke Jia, Ratanaruang Pen-ek, Tsai Ming-Liang, Wong Kar Wai, Park Chan-wook, Bong Joon-Ho, Miike... all focus on the antithesis of exotic (dealing with the cultural clashes and disorientation Westernization has wrought) and concentrating on plebeian subjects with quotidian lives.
