    You have revealed details about this movie that no one else noticed. It was an amazing movie already, but your commentary and analysis have made it a thousand times more amazing. Not knowing any Chinese languages, I was unaware that Michelle Yeoh switched languages depending on who she spoke to. That detail alone adds an entire level of complexity and depth to the story that was completely lost on me in my initial viewing.

      I only knew because I'm hard of hearing and watch with subtitles, it says at least most of the time when they switch languages. I know they can be annoying sometimes but I highly recommend subtitles even if you don't need them, there's often things you might not have noticed. Plus sometimes you'll find really cool subtitles that kind of enhance the viewing experience like how the stab sounds in a horror movie. Even if you can hear it perfectly fine it adds some flare to it. I've also heard people say they help them follow along with and take in what's being said. Sometimes subtitles are horrible but a lot now are much better than they used to be in accuracy and style haha

      I was wondering how the general American audience would react to it. The script is a masterpiece that non-Chinese can appreciate but may not fully understand. It's juggling not two, but THREE languages (English, Cantonese and the southern variety of Mandarin) effortlessly & (pretty naturally), which is how most of us from or with ancestry from Southern China actually speak like. But to convey multiversal & reality-bending concepts together with all the emotional nuances, truly a linguistic & literary feat from the writers!

    • @Beluga_Too
      @Beluga_Too 18 дней назад

      Everyone who grows up in Cantonese speaking area (Guandong) at least learns some Mandarin. Michelle is interesting cos she's from Malaysia and got started in HK. So Cantonese was the language of those studios, but of course, almost anyone who stars in Chinese films needs to speak at least passing Mandarin eventually.

    Pronouncing 了 particle as Liao is very common in Malaysian mandarin accent. At 1:03, where Jessie said “怪怪的“, the speaker uses a slight rising inflection for emphasis. This is also a very common feature of Malaysian Mandarin accent.

  • @mrichmon

    Thanks for all the references to Chinese and HK movies. A few there I need to add to my watch list.
    In English, they are called “Googly Eyes” (pronounced “google-leee eyes”). In the movie it is “Google eyes” because of Evelyn’s accent and her frustration. “Googly” can be a difficult word for non-native speakers. “Googly” is a reference to a 1920s comic strip, and can be used to describe the glassy/glazed eyes of someone very drunk staring blankly.

    • @grife3000
      @grife3000 Год назад +4

      The comic was apparently named "Barney Google and Snuffy Smith" so actually "Google" was the origin and it evolved into googly. I've only even known Snuffy Smith without that character, so this is interesting to learn.

Andy also played the Death Dealer in Shang Chi and doubled for young Shang Chi in the training flashbacks.

    James Hoang dialect is consistent with post World War 2 migrants from Southern China. It is feels like my grandparents' dialect. It isn't Cantonese but a variant called "Toisan" or "heun-har-wah" or "see yup wah". They can understand Cantonese clearly but would always reply back in Toisan. My grandprents also called Chinese people "tong yun" and Chinese language "tong wah" (like what James Hoang did). When we have dinner it was "[toisan] hak fan!" instead of "[cantonese] sic fan!" or "[mandarin] chi fan!". If we were to ask if somebody if they had eaten it was "[toisan] ni hak jor fan me ah?" instead of "[mandarin] chi fan, you me you?". The expected response was I have already eaten "[toisan] wo hak jor!" instead of "[mandarin] yi jing!". (Sorry my Mandarin is poor and my memory of the Toisan dialect is rough). The region they're from was also called "toisan" and was informally part of "see yup" referring to the 4 major regions near GuangZhou in GuangDong, Southern China. People from this region often spoke Toisan. Nowadays, I feel fewer people speak and understand Toisan. Post World War 2 migrants from China to San Fransisco and (also Ballarat/Bendingo in Australia) bringing Toisan as the early version of Chinese to western countries. The migration was to find wealth by aiming for 金山 "Gum San" (the golden mountain), i.e. they were prospecting for gold or run a supporting business during the gold rush period.

    So "come out of the closet" in Chinese is literally the same "出柜", that's interesting.

    • @Jumpoable

      I mean, the term is from English. The original Chinese term for coming out is "STAY IN THE CLOSET FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE UNTIL YOU GET MARRIED & PRODUCE AN HEIR, PREFERABLY MALE, & THEN YOU CAN TAKE A HOMOSEXUAL LOVER ON THE SIDE BUT NEVER TALK ABOUT IT DURING FAMILY GATHERINGS."

    Yes, you should not open an umbrella indoors. The reason is everything must have a purpose. An opened umbrella in a place where there is a roof serves no purpose and thus a spirit will make a purpose for the umbrella by residing underneath it. When you open an umbrella indoors you are inviting a spirit to live under it.

      I grew up being taught by my parents never to open an umbrella indoors. If it happened, I was supposed to throw salt over my shoulder. 😂

    It was really cool seeing some of the references laid out. Many of them I knew from my own experience, but several I did not. I'm curious to look up The Grandmaster now.

      The Grandmaster is an exceptional martial arts themed movie by Wong Kar-Wai. Has some of the best Chinese actors. Definitely recommend checking.

    3:42 My parents immigrated from GZ to NYC in the early 80s and in Cantonese, we use “tong waa,” “tong man” and “zong man” to refer to Chinese broadly and “gwok jyu/guoyu” to refer to Mandarin specifically
    I think the use of “waa” as opposed to “men” is very deliberate because “waa” is spoken language and “men” includes written language. Since Joy can barely speak, it’s assumed she isn’t literate in Chinese

    As someone else said: In English, they are called “Googly Eyes” (pronounced “google-leee eyes”). In the movie it is “Google eyes” because of Evelyn’s accent and her frustration. “Googly” can be a difficult word for non-native speakers. “Googly” is a reference to a 1920s comic strip, and can be used to describe the glassy/glazed eyes of someone very drunk staring blankly.

    Great catch on seeing the cookie that is kung fu being the same cookie that Waymond used as his love kung fu to try and help out with the audit. And thanks for freezing it, that's the first time I noticed he made a smiley face with it! :)

    Wow what a cool reaction! Never thought to look for international reaction to movies which now seems like such a stupid oversight on my part. Because I’m very into that sort of thing. Loved that he caught the clockwork orange reference because I sure didn’t. Thank you for the effort put in, that was fun. 🙂

    这部电影中有很多致敬以前电影经典片段,同时也隐藏着很多信息。今天看到两位谈的,又知道得更多了。很神奇。看到贝果的时候我第一想法也感觉到Joy是抑郁病患者,可能因为自己也有相似的家庭背景,也同样是抑郁症患者,有很多感同身受的东西。
