  1. @mookie I watched #DevilWearsPrada (DWP) 2 the other day.

    I liked it but I thought it was a retread of DWP1 in almost every respect, including Andy's attempt to "save" Amanda from a takeover when Amanda knew what was going on all along.

    There is a segment of the #AAPI community that is "up in arms" about the stereotypical casting of the nerdy overachieving Asian American woman as Andy's assistant (a position clearly below her abilities) in the all white female controlled business but, while I can see their point, I'm not as bothered about it (I've seen much worse) as they are.

    Here's a link to a YT video which expresses this POV:

    On the other hand, I haven't heard any outrage from the #LGBTQ community about the stereotypical casting of the overweight gay/fem secretary which was equally concerning. At least they didn't cast, #BowenYang in either role which really would have offended me. 🤦‍♂️

    In any event, I think DWP2 is entertaining & I'd rate it a 6 out of 10
