* START HERE * -PART 1 of 3-
"BUILDING A JOURNEY: FROM BETTER LUCK TOMORROW TO FINISHING THE GAME"
Directed by Anson Ho

Before "FAST AND THE FURIOUS: TOKYO DRIFT", before "BETTER LUCK TOMORROW", there was a beginning. This documentary follows Justin Lin and the entire BETTER LUCK TOMORROW family from the very start. See how 10 credit cards, $250,000 in debt, and a dream called BETTER LUCK TOMORROW became a reality. You'll get an inside look on how the BLT family has been working hand in hand with the Asian American community to carve out a niche for themselves in mainstream American media. Join Justin Lin, MC Hammer, Sung Kang, Roger Fan, Julie Asato, Dustin Nguyen, and the ever-growing BLT family as they journey from 2001 until present day. And now, they're back with their follow-up to BLT, "FINISHING THE GAME". After 2 big budget studio movies, have things gotten easier for Justin Lin & Co. to make another independent, Asian American feature film? You'll find out!

Roger Ebert Rox!

[spinyanteater]

I love you, Roger Ebert.

[MadameDeJaVu]

Who the hell gives some douchebag the right to tell Asian American people how to represent themselves and their art? I will not be dictated to, about who I can watch, I am from England, and so do not really understand, all the clearly racist structure in American societies, but having been a fan of Kung-Fu movies all my life, and since being an adult my viewing has become more diverse in all aspects of Asian movies, long live Asian movies! Fuck all the haters.

[MusetteVigeeLebrun]

I didn't even take the dude who criticized the movie seriously.

I loved Han so much, and I'm Mexican, but wow, I love Sung Kang.
