  1. I want Star Trek to do the same thing they did on the latest Spider-Man movie. They have had characters make brief cameos in the previous movies, but I would love it if we can get the actors that are living to sit/stand in their original places on the enterprise.

  2. This man introduced me to COWBOY BEBOP! I love the live action because it made me curious to seek out the original anime. Every shot of every scene has the look and feel of pure love for the original work. It was such a fantastic trip into a creative experience all around!! Quarantine was rough over the past couple years, but entertainment like CB make it not only survivable, but sometimes outright enjoyable.

  3. Yo, whoever does research for Joy, please do better. I can see what she was trying to coordinate events for the question, but it came out awkward because she couldn't flow.
    But I've dug this chap since Harold and Kumar and I appreciate what he does. I wish there were more stuff with him. Totally enjoyed Cowboy Bebop..such a handsome man.

  4. Exhibit A: Asian Americans will always be seen as foreigners, whether or not they immigrated or were born here. Joy's seemingly innocent remark points out how an accent is always expected, and practically every Asian American has felt that pain, having to defend themselves or perform and play the part.

  5. Whoopi, did you see the people who were doing the vast majority of damage to the korean families and their businesses. Quit implying its those people. There ain't a lot of " those people" in Compton, I know because I use to live there.

  6. Howard Zinn did his part in revealing the true history of the US. He was one of many, but his "A People's History of the United States" was what turned me on to a lot things. It was a sad and depressing book, but at least it didn't sugarcoat the truth like everything else that was put in front of me when I was a kid in school.

  7. Joy: Love you but just because he came here at six doesn’t mean he should probably have an accent. I’m sure he barely knew his native language at six..😒 And why just because you don’t look white, does it have to be pointed out that you came from a foreign country ?

  8. Omg that accent remark. Ugh I felt for him because if you are a minority from a different country the way you articulate becomes more important than your achievements. 🤦‍♀️

  9. So like yeah its a business. And east Asian men couldn't capitalize on their look even in the digital online age. And what do you know they put really soft east Asian women as marketable. Like Michelle pham. Constance wu. Blackpink. Ew but no politics. But honestly did east Asians even show up for each other like is entertainment . like what do east Asians believe in and what did they expect people to understand from it. Please let me know. I don't want to see or hear east Asian men sleeping with hoes and calling women sluts did east asian men do their part.
