Ep 90 - Why There Is No Latino "Crazy Rich Asians," 'Rotten Tomatoes' Focuses On Minority Critics
RottenTomatoes overhauled their eligibility rules to allow more diverse critics to be heard. What sparked the idea behind the new ruling, what took them so long, and will Spanish-language reviews continue to be allowed on the site? (3:50)
Then we chat with Latina journalist Victoria Leandra who co-wrote a recent Bloomberg article on why Latinos still don’t have a movie on the level of Crazy Rich Asians or Black Panther. Is it a lack of talent or is it prejudice? (17:29)
