Random-est Discussion (ft. Jesslyn)
Theresa found a recording booth on campus! She invites her friend Jesslyn to try it out and discuss all the random-est things.
They talked about their favourite films, the live-action Disney remakes, internalised racism and Hollywood beauty standards (as Theresa defends Simu Liu as Shang-Chi), English subtitles vs. English dubs, voice acting, how every mum loves Keanu Reeves (and Jesslyn's wish for the world to have more Keanus), and the key to making good video game film adaptations.
