    1 Cultural Daily Independent Voices, New Perspectives Ali Wong Elisa Leonelli · Wednesday, October 2nd, 2019 I was already familiar with the work of Randall Park. I had interviewed him in 2014 for the Seth Rogen comedy The Interview, where he played North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, then I had seen him in the TV sitcom Fresh Off the Boat (2015-2019), where the Los Angeles born son of South Korean parents plays a Chinese-American from Taiwan, and Constance Wu plays his wife. But I was not yet aware of Ali Wong. So, when a romantic comedy starring the two actors was previewed for press, Always Be My Maybe, I was eager to see it. It was released on Netflix on May 31, only 2 days after a limited theatrical release. Cultural Daily - 1 / 6 - 04.08.2021 2 I was impressed by this funny and original love story, set in San Francisco, where the woman is a celebrity chef opening a new restaurant, while the man is a struggling musician still living at home with his parents. And I was delighted to discover Ali Wong, born Alexandra Wong in San Francisco from a Chinese-American physician father and a Vietnamese immigrant mother. She majored in Asian-American Studies at UCLA, where she joined a theater group Randall Park had founded, and the two have been friends and creative collaborators ever since. Wong is a writer on Fresh Off the Cultural Daily - 2 / 6 - 04.08.2021 3 Boat, and both actors worked on the screenplay for the movie.

The children happily painted Christmas ornaments and constructed edible dreidels out of pretzels, marshmallows, fluff and chocolate, before feasting on a bagel breakfast with their families. According to Battaglia, the activities were planned as a way to educate students about the holidays and traditions of others. “As part of the curriculum we teach the students about the holidays,” Battaglia said. “It’s also important to tie into the different traditions of other people in the community.” (right) This second grader proudly displayed the candy cane ornament she painted in class.

  • The Interview: More Than Just Poop and Fart Jokes
    The Interview: More Than Just Poop and Fart Jokes No motion picture could live up to its hype after the unprecedented rollercoaster ride The Interview has had. Still, The Interview is a much better film than many of the reviews would have you believe. To be clear, the film is no contender to be a cinematic classic, but it also is a lot more serious and clever than a typical Seth Rogen-James Franco vehicle: After excavating past the obligatory poop and fart jokes, there is a funny black comedy underneath with a real plot and well-defined, although deliberately caricatured, main characters. By contrast, removing the usual Rogen-Franco inanity from, say, Pineapple Express, would leave little more than a three-minute short. The writing at times is very sharp, directed more against the American media’s preoccupation with celebrity tripe than against North Korea. The satire is so over-the-top that the film tries to follow the tone of Dr. Strangelove, and by that stratospheric standard it is a high compliment to say that it does not totally fail. The Interview opens with hilarious appearances by celebrities Eminem and Rob Lowe using the “Skylark Tonight” talk show hosted by Franco’s character, Dave Skylark, to make sensationally prurient revelations about themselves. Rogen’s character, Aaron Rapoport, has been Skylark’s producer for 1,000 episodes over 10 years, but yearns to put his journalism education to better use by covering “serious” news. He gets his chance when, by happenstance, they learn that the reclusive dictator of North Korea, Kim Jong-Un, is a fan of their show.

  • 2019 Hyundai Veloster Will Make Its Hollywood Debut in Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp”
    2019 Hyundai Veloster Will Make Its Hollywood Debut In Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp” DETROIT, Jan. 15, 2018 – Fans of Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man will soon be introduced to the stylish design and exceptional performance capabilities of the all-new Hyundai Veloster as it will play a significant role in Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp”. Teaming up with this major franchise is part of a global marketing initiative to launch the newly redesigned sporty coupe while increasing Hyundai’s brand awareness with Marvel fans around the world. The 2019 Hyundai Veloster will find itself at home in the Super Hero world when it is used on screen in a hot pursuit. The heroic scene showcases the Veloster’s capabilities in serving as the ultimate escape vehicle as the tailing cars can’t handle the speed and handling of the Veloster—no matter its size. “Similar to Marvel’s passionate fans, the Hyundai Veloster attracts customers who are always looking for that next extraordinary moment and yearn for new discoveries and opportunities,” said Dean Evans, CMO, Hyundai Motor America. “With both the Veloster and Ant-Man thriving on individuality, we feel this partnership is a great fit and we’re excited to be accompanying Marvel on their next adventure.” Success is a given when it comes to Marvel, and the Ant-Man franchise provides a platform for global visibility. Released in 2015, Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man” achieved a global box office of $519M and quickly became a fan-favorite. The sequel is highly anticipated with talk of how the plot of the film could “shake up” the Marvel Cinematic universe.

  • Li 1 Quincie Li Prof. Shin ENGL 277 17 April 2015 Asian Americans As
    Li 1 Quincie Li Prof. Shin ENGL 277 17 April 2015 Asian Americans as Leading Men: Reexamining Masculinity in Situational Comedies As a culturally marginalized and underrepresented group, Asian American men rarely see complex characters that look like them on television. In particular, performing Asian American masculinity in situational comedies traditionally involves asexualizing the character and relegating his role in the narrative to an insignificant supporting one, playing upon his lack of awareness of basic social customs for cheap laughs. For the characters for which this stereotypical caricature does not apply, their races and cultural identities are usually erased or do not figure strongly into their identity as a character, like in the case of Tom Haverford on the NBC show, Parks and Recreation. However, within the past year, audiences saw Asian American males move to the forefront of three newly premiered sitcoms: Selfie, Fresh Off the Boat, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. On the one hand, none of the Asian American males in any of these shows radically defy their traditional stereotypes by fully encompassing hegemonic masculinity on levels that are usually reserved for white males. Nonetheless, the characters on these three shows challenge traditional depictions of Asian American males by turning their assigned status as “the other” into an equivalent counterpart to the female protagonist and by besting their Caucasian male rivals, dismantling the rigid association of hegemonic white masculinity with success in America. In this analysis, I will examine the ways in which the Asian American male characters on these three shows both challenge and reinforce the stereotypes associated with Asian American Li 2 men by comparing and contrasting them to their white male counterparts, both as competitors for the affections of the same female and as competitors in their work lives.
