Hi, I'm here to take sole responsibility for this headline. "Bamboo ceiling" is a real term used to describe the difficulty Asian Americans in the corporate world face in breaking through to upper management. (cont'd)

hollywoodreporter.com/news/2021-osca… via @thr I totally understand why many people are offended by the headline given media's lengthy history of problematic headlines about Asian culture. I had hoped to make a legitimate reference despite that context, but you may think I judged wrongly. That's fair!

Now that #RayaAndTheLastDragon has been out for bit, can I talk about what really blew me away about the film?

(SPOILERS)

You think you're watching a typical Hero v Villain story and then Namaari comes face to face with Sisu and you realize... this is not a typical story. I burst into tears when I saw the look on Namaari's face. The movie turns on its head at that point. What a feat of animation, scoring and direction. Kudos to Don Hall and Carlos Lopez Estrada.

Happy #CrazyRichAsians opening day! To celebrate this historic occasion, I want to uplift some of the brilliant pieces written by Asian American journalists about this gorgeous and important film.
