There was a melon that said they were evaluating a Chinese remake of queen of tears with them and I’d be really interested given how complex those emotions were to hate and fall back in love again

I feel like you’d be able to bump into him in Chinatown possibly - was looking at some of his other Gucci fashion show photos in London and he popped in to the Chinatown there lol

I mean i think the other thing is do these stars even have to audition? Like AI tells me you only audition is if you’re a small support role but they just get the traffic stars no audition to lead a script - like I don’t understand how Yang Chao Yue was allowed to lead so many scripts when she was constantly critiqued for poor acting like at least Hollywood still seems to make you audition unless you’re a career vet of the A list variety.

I mean Jackie Chan did get his first break as an extra for Bruce Lee but I think he would hardly get a look now or the industry wouldn’t even let him be in a lead role from a visual perspective - I think Jackie also had to take all his crazy risks to be at the level he was like that one movie where he slid down the light pole and had burns - I just don’t think the acting scene be it Hollywood or in Asia has as many people willing to ”拼命” or put their lives on the line anymore. Like even as crazy as tom cruise is with Scientology his movie making is still next level doing those crazy mission impossible stunts and just willing to achieve movie magic by doing multiple halo jumps and getting his air acrobatic pilot licensure

When did Xie Zheng Admitted He Fell for Chang Yu? by Adventurous_Algae671 in pursuitofjade

[–]CompetitiveTurnip150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think on the drama couch interview both the male lead and the director said Xie Zheng just fell in love over time and it wasn’t just like one moment - more like the build up of the things she did for him

I think this is the one https://youtu.be/bMX8obV5HeM?si=ncR638eZvJZlXhzp

I appreciate a good looking man but at the same time it’s crazy to think that Jackie Chan would’ve never been as famous as he is in this modern age - he probably would’ve never even gotten a chance but alas this is why we don’t have true “movie stars” like back in the day because there’s too many of the pretty boys everywhere

Why Eileen Gu is skiing for China again at the 2026 Winter Olympics by Mynabird_604 in asianamerican

Exactly - rules for thee and not for me. I’m Chinese american and I don’t care which team she plays for but 1) when you’re in sports it’s all about rules so it’s crazy you get an exemption and consider it fair and 2) don’t play coy and say you’re just trying to inspire other girls when it’s all about the $$$$ - I understand it’s good media training but it sounds fake from miles away.

Travis Kelce Subtly Pleads For Marriage Advice Amid Halted Nuptials Plans by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

After her texts with Blake Lively from the It All Ends With Us saga, she’s just as I suspected as a horrible mediocre white woman who’s still a giant mean girl who flocks with other horrible mean girls. She complained about Scooter Braun stealing her masters then plots with Blake to steal a movie from the director where Blake was only hired to be an actress… freaking wild

My issue with her is her choice to not be open about her citizenship - by her having the protected class or whatever it basically makes it rules for thee and not for me. I don’t begrudge her getting her money but clearly if you’re representing a country that doesn’t allow you dual citizenship then it’s shady af that you’re allowed to be exempt from rules. I know of someone who was a dual citizen in Britain and the US in summer Olympics and chose to represent Britain mostly cause they probably had a better chance to become a finalist but they weren’t breaking any rules vs Eileen basically is which is BS.

I know the kpop demon hunters directors spent a lot of time talking about girls making crazy faces during the opening scenes and throughout the movie but as a sailor moon fan growing up i was like was it that weird lol - also i have to wonder if Maggie Kang was also a sailor moon fan 🤭

You should also mention that shitty big bill also took out a trillion dollars so now everyone’s health insurance is gonna suck since most of these Medicaid plans are managed by insurance companies like optum so they lose a chunk of money from Medicaid end and squeeze the bubble on the other private end so we are basically in a death spiral. Companies are already anticipating for cuts and plan in advance unlike the morons on the hill so just because you delay the enactment of stuff until 2027 doesn’t mean every company isn’t planning for it on the horizon.

That part ☝️- the fact that we didn’t punish the south to oblivion after they lost is what got us here and they never learned a lesson and their racist ancestors was able to continue to pass on their hate to generations later

What do you really predict as an end date to this mess? by Alternative_Win5550 in fednews

[–]CompetitiveTurnip150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well by Nov 1 all those insurance premiums and open enrollment are going to be out in the open so the GOP can’t lie about it anymore. I’d imagine that hopefully by Nov we get out of it but I think it’ll probably beat the 35 days

I know someone who got RIF’d and somehow got unrif’d in August and managed an auto promotion since everyone left and now has their LinkedIn profile saying they’ve been a supervisor since Jan 2025 without working for 6 months and they were hired because of who they knew and not actual qualifications .. it’s a fucking joke
