god you fricking morons don't understand this shit is planned years in advance
Not enough diversity
Great show, not surprised people here never gave it a chance though
It looks like it missed the point of the graphic novel.
No cousin Chin Kee, no Jesus, no watch.
>No Chin Kee
What the frick
The series is an adaptation of a comic book. Cousin Chin-Kee was a major character in the source material.
is it like kung pow enter the fist
damn...
The only good film of 2023.
Why does every Disney plus show have this shitty color correction to make it look more filmic?
Literally all of their shows look like movies from 2005.
How many streaming series are cancelled after their first season? It seems like a lot but I've never thought to check a compiled list.
The phrase “American Born Chinese” shows that chinks consider themselves Chinese first, not American.
This. If they can't just call themselves American then they're missing the point
I thought it meant he was born in China and later "became" an American through citizenship/inculturation.
Born
>I thought it meant he was born in China
We have some really dumb frickers on this board
>American, Born Chinese
is pretty fricking different from
>American-Born Chinese
which you would know if you weren't an ESL
, Born Chinese
That's great mate, but there isn't a comma in the title.
>American Born Chinese
Is the original graphic novel any good?
It's great
Woah, what a stud. Real leading man material.
And his love interest in the series. lmao. I guess audiences were willing to accept mystical Chinese shit like the Monkey King, but this was too much for them to believe.
Well, it IS listed as a fantasy series.
I think the casting director was having a laugh.
this is worse than the disparity between Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox from Transformers holy shit
this is literal reality
white b***hes love asian men
He will hang himself once he see the baby's black skin.
Need Asian betabux to support her mutt children and black bull.
Just date within your race. Racemixers are freaks.
It's great and I actually encourage east-asian x Euro relationships, provided the male isn't too old. Many of the asian-white children problem seems to be 30+ males and younger females, who then give the kids autism spectrum, schizophrenia, or borderline personality disorder, which are all linked to male age.
Hapa kids:
>hottest b***hes ever
>will in turn marry more whites thus being invaluable breeding stock
>their asian traits will phase out in 3 gens
>flips make the best prime breeding stock
I checked that woman's facebook out of curiosity, her husband is a skinny blonde guy who looked like slightly uglier version of Zazie Beets' husband.
Which is great, as I said.
Yes and it's based. I salute them.
Hapa are ugly
For real though what the frick is up with all the random filipina girls who set their locations halfway around the world on dating apps? Are they trying to score visas or some shit?
If she had a nice ass, I would
You mean st peach that slept with white guy at a con/porn video is online while he Asian guy filmed it? Dude is a cuck
>AMWF
not watching it
He somehow looks like 12 and 40 simultaneously
I think it’s funny that media created by Asian men usually has this undercurrent of bitterness and resentment towards white dudes especially in regards to dating and romance. Like the author is trying to signal to the readers “yeah like I could totally pull hot white chicks but white boys get pissed and try to bring down my game they just can’t stand seeing Asian MEN succeed on their turf haha! Do you think I’m cool yet?”
these streaming services need to make some fricking cheap shows like old network shows
network shows were cheap as frick but only started costing money if they became popular and the stars started asking for millions
They spam out shows because they have no idea how the streaming business model works (no one does) and cancel them because they're chasing that one mega-hit series.
Quality TV actually ruined streaming since we now expect cinema quality for TV series now, but they do it for EVERYTHING. Everything is a mini-series, everything has an interconnected storyline, everything is shot on location or with tons of CGI.
Yeah, why are they NOT making cheap shows? Netflix should have made:
>A cheap standard talk show to promote other Netflix series. Conan O'Briend would be best for this.
>bought up a bunch of youtube series who do cooking, chatting, general bullshit. Hot Ones- perfect example.
>Cheap as shit sitcoms. Episodic. In studio.
>sketch comedy shit
There's a reason a frick ton of people use steaming services to watch Fraisure, Seinfeld, The Office, and general shit like that.
>Cheap as shit sitcoms. Episodic. In studio
Its even easier now, with lightstages, you can literally just go get some random fricking props from a warehouse or yard sale. You can do set changes in under 5 minutes if you're good enough. Fricking highschool drama classes can do it, and they don't have light-stages
it's insane how correct you are.
none of it is even hard, expensive or time consuming. they just aren't trying. they're handing out money to every director that comes to them with an idea in hopes that they'll strike gold.
really sucks that they're so fricking bad with this shit.
My best guesses are:
>Quality tv series like The Sopranos, The Wire, etc kind of ruined expectations so now every show is meant to be in that format now
>with a throw anything at the wall to see what sticks by spamming out series and cancelling them after 1 season
>they are chasing mega-hit series than a series of smaller successful shows
>They heavily rely upon algorythms to decide what is "hot" and keep chasing that
But that cannot last forever. It's mostly nostalgia binging for millennials and streaming is just convenient to watch old sitcoms on and anything else is secondary. Seinfeld, Friends, The Office, etc were all massive.
I can't imagine that society is just going to collectively watch the same sitcomes from the 90's forever and ever right? Nice comfy relaxing episodic content has its place.
they only care about making money. they don't give a shit about making quality content.
>they only care about making money
And yet, they never do.
Propaganda as well
Streaming intends to disrupt the old models and split up their market share. It's less concerned with content or brand legacy, since soon we won't have much choice but streamers anyway.
>There's a reason a frick ton of people use steaming services to watch Fraisure, Seinfeld, The Office, and general shit like that.
Reminder that in 2020, the two most successful Netflix originals by minutes streamed were Ozark Season 3 (30.5bn streaming minutes) and Lucifer Season 5 (20bn streaming minutes). Of the newly debuted shows, Tiger King was the most viewed at 15.6bn streaming minutes.
That same year, The Office managed around 57bn streaming minutes. Grey's Anatomy managed 39.4 streaming minutes.
And these shows are comfy and modestly produced. K-dramas are also of that model and proportionally are more successful than most netflix originals. Netflix likely has the worst proportion of shit to good material ever for any studio ever in the history of mankind. They just pump out so much shit it's insane, and no one talks about any of it.
I really don't understand the streaming model. Most rewatched shows are 8+ seasons long with mostly episodic storytelling that were aired on a weekly basis over a decade. Netflix's response is to produce nothing but 10 hour movies chopped into 8 "episodes" that are dumped all at the same time and cancelled after 2 seasons (with an 18 month gap between seasons).
>these streaming services need to make some fricking cheap shows like old network shows
a low budget quality show. it's cheaper and can still be good.
What an insanely bad title.
Also, Yeoh is a terrible actress. She can’t emote at all.
Yeoh is kino but she never gets anything to do in Hollywood stuff
yeoh is only good in honk kong stuff
she's great in supercop
No one cares about Chinese Americans. They're buttholes who keep to themselves.
An even bigger irony is that native chinese hate them too and consider them too american
Just like how Zionist israelites hate foreign israelites.
But most zionist israelites are foreign israelites.
>American Born Chinese
Chinese American implies they see themselves as American.
Doesn't matter either way. They're buttholes. A show about American born Koreans or Vietnamese, fine. American born Chinese are weird.
'Hyphenated American'
Obnoxious, but still better than hyphenated Chinese.
lol
>The series received criticism in Taiwan for changing the character of Wei-Chen's nationality from Taiwanese to Chinese. In Gene Luen Yang's graphic novel, Wei-Chen is from Taiwan, and actor Jimmy Liu, who portrays him in the series, is also Taiwanese.
lmao even
corporate trash
"Me Disney, me play joke. You fired."
The Chinese owned Biden administration actually held a screening for this at The White House.
Disney is just full of Asian immigrants who need to tell their harrowing story about how their parents wanted them to take over the family business (corner store, restaurant, or laundry mat) but they just wanted to make movies. So tired of this shtick.
>bad mom
how many movies have this trope?
>turning red
>crazy rich asian
anymore?
EEAAO
Diversity hire season is over. Percy Jackson will bring back WBS vibes to television.
ENOUGH FROM THE asiaticS
Should've been animated like American dragon or juniper lee
"Gosh American Born Chinese. You're so masculine and sexy. I sure would like you to lie down on top of me."
is his name really American Born Chinese?
Yes, though most characters just call him Amebo for short.
"Who's unemployed? This guy! Ahahahaha!"
Duh it's based off like a 120 page comic
They only adapted like half of it
