  This film was great! Didn&apos;t expect all the emotions that came with it. The cast knocked it out of the park! What was your reaction?

  The game at the end is mahjong. The significance of what Rachel does during the game is she gives away a piece she needed to win so that Nick&apos;s mom could win. When she shows all of her tiles before she walks away, its her showing that she didn&apos;t play to win like she teaches her students and like Eleanore references in their conversation when she says &quot;Only a fool folds a winning hand.&quot; This one simple action shows that Rachel loves nick enough to let him go, that family is first, and that she&apos;s a lot more like Eleanore than Eleanor was giving her credit for. That game is what changes her mind about letting Nick marry her.<br><br>I also just love Rachel&apos;s mom after all of this. That look back at Eleanor gives me chills!

  Astrid is my favorite character in this movie. Not only is she gorgeous and classy, but she is so kind and she obviously cares so much about her family. I love how quickly she warmed to Rachel just because she knew how much she meant to Nick. Thanks for another fantastic reaction guys! ❤

  It is very common in Asian media of the family “trope”, that you never see the Dad because he is working. Because a lot of the time, it’s true. A lot of fathers don’t have a lot of time. If you see how China and Japan have overwork exhaustion, especially in the corporate world, it makes sense.

  The Green ring used in the movie is Michelle Yeoh’s personal ring. Michelle didn’t believe her character would wear any of the rings the production company planned on using and so she told the director she had a ring that was more appropriate. The director loved it so that’s what she wore. I’m sure the value of that ring has skyrocketed after being used in the movie.

  His mom giving up the ring was her own form of closure on the fight she could never fight herself. That part makes me instantly sob. Acceptance is the biggest form of respect.

  I&apos;d like to give some clarification to the post credits scene with Astrid. We don&apos;t see the exposition in the film, but in the book it is revealed that that guy is actually her former boyfriend whom she chose Michael over. So it&apos;s not a love-out-of-nowhere trope, but rather an old flame returned.

  Princess Intan was played by Kris Aquino, one of the most well-known Filipino socialites and businesswomen in the industry. Her presence in this movie was such a huge win for Filipinos worldwide, on top of this movie being such a smash hit that widened representation for Asians in general, throughout Hollywood &lt;3

  I love that Nick is not only a literal nice guy (and not the jerk type), but also a good man.

  I came for Harry Potter, and stayed for you guys. Love you guys and your discussions. Also loved Oak opening up. I feel like we all have a few movies, books, tv shows that connect with us on some deeper level. Keep up the great work guys
