The fact that people aren’t going to see Crazy Rich Asians based off of the cast and title of the film alone is really telling of today’s social climate and societies treatment of Asians. Please take this gentle reminder that the things you see on tumblr do not always reflect reality, and Asians continue to be one of the most underrepresented groups in media. If you have free time in the next few days, I encourage you to go to the theaters and watch it, even if romcoms aren’t exactly your cup of tea!

[dothedansemacabre]

Ummm, I refuse to see it, not because of the outstanding cast of talented Asian characters; I’m not watching it because of the gross elaborate wealth and exclusionary stigmas against the poor that is apparent throughout the whole plot. How is that relatable to anyone in this political / economic climate? Also, the story is completely unoriginal. It’s a shame.

[17284937219873921-deactivated20]

I never said anything about the economy in my original post? This is the first all Asian romcom that Hollywood has ever filmed. I know the plot is not original, because it is the cast itself that is revolutionary! Sure it’s not perfect, and the film has its flaws, but it’s a big step up to true diversity. I respect that you might not want to watch it because it features certain storylines you find uncomfortable, but I really hope you do not slander the movies name and write it off as unoriginal.

[dothedansemacabre]

I know you didn’t, that’s why I said something. I understand why diversity is an issue. I get why an all Asian cast is a positive thing, but the reason some people aren’t going to see it isn’t because we don’t appreciate Asian actors or Asian culture or oppose any Asian representation, maybe it’s because we can’t relate to the plot at all. Average Americans won’t and can’t relate to billionaires. Why would we want to go to a film that would degrade poorer people?

And it is a played out trope and plot. Have you seen LOST? Titanic? The Great Gatsby? Atonement? Romeo & Juliet? Cinderella? The story isn’t great or original no matter who takes part in it.

[17284937219873921-deactivated20]

Then make your own post, because this post specifically about people who are refusing to watch the movie because it stars East Asians, just check the comment section under this movies trailer, its a mess. Of course the average Asian won’t relate to being a billionaire, movies aren’t always about being realistic, they’re about telling a story. Millions of people went to see Incredibles 2, do you think the average person relates to having super powers? Of course not, but they do relate to its core themes of family, love, and societal pressures to be normal. This same ideology can be applied to Crazy Rich Asians. While I have not seen the movie and cannot say for certain, I don’t think it necessarily intends to degrade poor people? The main characters lavish lifestyle is based off of the authors own childhood!

Also, I think it is important that you recognize the difference between a premise and a plot. The plots of the Titanic and Cinderella are very different, although they do share core themes of love in between socioeconomic hierarchies. You can break down the premise of any novel into something basic and unoriginal, but that doesn’t make the story any worse!

#you literally said that people aren’t seeing this movie because of how society views Asians#there are other reasons than that as to why it isn’t appealing to see at all#romeo & juliet because of the family disapproval#movies about superpowers don’t echo the zeitgeist like love and wealth do#the point is the sole reason as you suggested in your orginal post is not entirely true. there are other reasons The original post was directed exactly at people who were refusing to watch the movie because it stars East Asians, if you have other reasons cool! But consider this

Kent Rogowski: Love = Love, 2006-2008

Love=Love is a series of collages that were created using pieces of over 60 store bought puzzles. Although puzzle pieces are unique, and can only fit into one place within a puzzle, they are sometimes interchangeable within a brand. These puzzles were cut using the same die, but depict unrelated images. Using only the flowers and skies from each of the puzzles, I created a series of entirely new compositions by recombining the puzzle pieces. These spectacular, fantastical and surreal landscapes sit in direct contrast to the banal and bucolic images of the original puzzles. (artist statement)
