Ugh, apparently, the studios have Josh Brolin as the top casting pick for the lead role. http://twitchfilm.com/news/... I'd rather see Idris Elba take the role.

Re: An Uncomfortable Silence: Why Is Geek Media Keeping Quiet About The AKIRA Remake?

johnminh — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 13:13:03 -0000

So we can expect Akira to be like this: http://www.youtube.com/watc.... It would be funnier if it wasn't so sad and maddening that Hollywood won't go out on a limb and cast people who are the actual races of the characters on screen.

I love this new look! The text is easy to read on my ipod touch.

Add this to the good: Ryan Higa (youtube's nigahiga) has a "Honk for Japan" video where he donated $600 for earthquake relief based on the number of honks he got standing on a street corner in LA. http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Gina as Wonder Woman is awesome and inspired casting! The rest are really great choices too. I would actually watch network television if this casting were to happen.

Thank you for bringing back the one column front page! It actually makes it easier to browse on a mobile browser, although the text still seems a little small. Can the column width be made a little more narrow so text appears bigger on mobile browsers? Keep up the great work. These changes are definitely appreciated. =)

Every time I hear about PF Changs, I can't help but think about "The Food" starring Randall Park: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

"Sometimes these ladies spend the husband’s money, use it all, then he’s cut out. "

It's probably just me being cranky, but I can't help but hope that these ladies cheat these old, socially inept guys out of as much money as possible.

I would love to see an Asian American make it to the Ultimate Fighter Finale.

Edward, I applaud you for turning down this role.

It's 2010! That's 2 years from the 2008 stories. I want to hear the "David Choi Story" from David Choi's point of view.

This was a great read by the way. =)

Re: Potential White-Washing in ‘Runaways?’

I think Mike meant first Asian American Super Hero.

Besides, Ralph Macchio and Jayden Smith are not Asian American.

Rain is Asian, not Asian American.

Ellen Wong from Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World for Nico Minoru!

Re: Asian Girl Alienated in Neiman Marcus Ad

johnminh — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 13:51:07 -0000

She's probably ostracized/alienated because her parents are smart enough to not spend way too much money at Needless Markup when they can get the same clothes for much less at Target.

I live near Frisco, TX, so I'll definitely be going to these games if the Mavs sign him. Woohoo!

Re: The 8Asians Talk About: The Last Airbender’s Financial Success

johnminh — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 18:24:44 -0000

If you don't want to download the movie, I would suggest buying a ticket for The Karate Kid and then sneaking into The Last Airbender. The Karate Kid is the ONLY summer film that stars non-white leads.

Either way, I have no intention of watching The Lame Racebender.

Mad hetero man-love to David Choi! I pre-ordered the album and received my autograph copy on Saturday afternoon. It's been rotating through my playlist since then.

You guys are making me hungry. I would definitely say my mom's homemade pho. It's so much better than what you get at restaurants. I also like her sticky rice with Chinese sausage that she would make on occasion on the weekends. Add a little crispy fried onions and soy sauce, and I'm in breakfast heaven.
