    [Sci-fi movie announcement] The Traveler Directed by Lee Isaac Chung (Minari, Twisters, The Mandalorian, Skeleton Crew.), the film is an adaptation of the novel Traveler by Joseph Eckert. It's not a space movie, but stay with me, because it's a promising time travel project.

    The first ad just noted Jesse Eisenberg's participation in it. Was he gonna be Fievel? No, that's gonna be the kid from Minari, remember that movie? And the dad is Richard Kind. Whoopi Goldberg is hosting this thing. Craziest $18 I've ever spent, maybe?

    Who remembers when Minari won the Golden Globe award for "Best Foreign Film" because it wasn't allowed to b nominated for a "Best Motion Picture" award? Yeah, more of the same. It's close to the 100 year anniversary of "Race records" as a marketing category for the early 20th c recording industry.

    Just saw Twisters. I loved Lee Isaac Chung’s Minari and as much as I love 1996’s Twister, I was shocked to hear this would be his follow-up. I get it now: this movie is a big, fun popcorn flick but it’s also nuanced, beautifully shot, and full of heart. See it on the biggest screen.

    Speaking of the human scale films, I’m embarrassed I only recently saw Minari on a plane. I cried a ton. What a beautiful film. I’m mixed race Asian and my Chinese family first settled in Arkansas in the 70s so there was a lot that hit on a personal level despite it not being my family’s story.

    I think so much of it was the “like it don’t love it” nature of Mank. All those nods showed more respect than ardor to me. I think that trickled into the acting races too. Minari was ultimately a more beloved film (was my fave of that year too), and Youn had the more fulfilling narrative.
