Supergirl hosts, Shanna and The Doctor, are here for a Spoiler Review of this weekend's hit movies, Crazy Rich Asians and To All The Boys I've Loved Before. Based on the book by Kevin Kwan, Crazy Rich Asians debuted in theaters to a $34M opening weekend and it is only the second Hollywood film featuring an all-Asian cast (the last was The Joy Club). To All The Boys I've Loved Before features an Asian leading lady played by Lana Condor (X-Men: Apocalypse) and is based on the YA novel by Jenny Han.
The success of both films (hopefully) marks another turning point in Hollywood's recognition of the stories of people of color. Shanna, the resident book to film expert, and The Doctor, our K-drama and Chinese series lover, talk representation, the intricacies of navigating Asian family politics, Chris Pang joining the pantheon of Chrises and how no one will match up to Peter Kavinsky.
