First up, I am definitely still working on ficlets from the couple of prompts I got in my last post. Look, you ask for mpreg and/or new ships for me, and it's gonna take longer.
Second up, I went to go see Crazy Rich Asians. Both because I genuinely wanted to see it and because of Asian solidarity, etc. I think there's been an unfair amount of weight put on this movie to be all things to all Asian people and also to have perfect politics wrt to the whole 'Crazy Rich' thing. I read some reviews that allowed me to be prepped for what to expect from it, and I found it to be far better than I'd even hoped.
( More thoughts and probably also spoilers )
Even with the representation and the crying and all of that, I don't know if I identified super strongly with this movie. I liked it a lot. I would be happy to rewatch it any time. I don't think I loved it, though. And that's okay. I don't have to. If Hollywood can be bothered to follow the money, there will be other ones. Maybe even one that I will fall in love with.
