Crazy Rich Asians & Rhône Viognier
Given its setting, you could pair "Crazy Rich Asians" with a Singapore Sling, but that might be too on the nose.

'Cause pairing wine and food has been done
Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark & Rioja
As a spicy wine, a Rioja is as exciting and dynamic as Indie's quests. And like any good treasure, Riojas improve with age.
Into the Spider-Verse & Emilia-Romagna Lambrusco
I'm looking forward to Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and it's as good an excuse as any to rewatch the first movie. Go Lambrusco.
California Chardonnay & Freaky Friday
If you must drink a buttery, oaky monstrosity, watch Freaky Friday. The movie is about and the wine tastes like turning into your mother.
House of Gucci & Piedmont Barolo
House of Gucci oozes luxury and scandal, so it's only fitting to indulge in a wine that's just as opulent and captivating.
Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle & Beaujolais Gamay
I should probably suggest a cannabis-infused wine but I'd never recommend anything illegal... 😈
Tremors & Riverland Pétillant Naturel
Both Tremors and Pet-Nats are all about unexpected surprises. Each bottle is as unpredictable as a graboid's nature and hunting methods.
The Little Mermaid & Sardinian Vermentino
Let's pretend the live-action remake isn't about to disappoint us bitterly. The 1989 animated movie pairs best with a Sardinian Vermentino.
No Country for Old Men & Sonoma Pinot Noir
There may not be a satisfying conclusion to "No Country for Old Men," but at least you'll get one from this wine's long finish.
Jojo Rabbit & a NOT German Gewürztraminer
I wanted to do a war movie, but I couldn't finish All Quiet on the Western Front. Watch Jojo Rabbit instead, it's both funnier and sadder.
Catch Me If You Can & Burgundy Chablis
A Chablis is a Chardonnay done well, so it calls for a story that warns against taking shortcuts, such as "Catch Me If You Can."
You've Got Mail & Russian River Pinot Gris
"You've Got Mail" is 25 years old now and I don't know how I feel about that. That's a lie, I do know. I don't like it.
Dune & Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Since there's no way I'll ever get to watch Jodorowky's "Dune," I guess I'll have to settle for Denis Villeneuve's masterpiece.
