Happy Holidays.

Here's my WordPress: https://panichristie.wordpress.com/

I also forgot to make a post commemorating the 6th Year Anniversary of my first review, which was Dec. 6th. Oh well.

So I'm probably going to do more simple vlog stuff. We'll see how that goes.

The Boxtrolls and South Park's "The Cissy"

TL;DW: Imaginative, creative, but not funny. The villainous cross-dressing trope was the straw that broke the camel's back. The camel being my investment in the film. By about the halfway point, I stopped caring and just wanted it to end. So, a somewhat decent movie that I hated.



TL;DW: While the episode does discuss certain aspects of being transgender, there aren't really any transgender characters. Most of the characters who start identifying as trans are actually just cross-dressing for their own wants (Cartman wanting to use the girls' room, Wendy trying to prove a point to Cartman, Randy keeping up the Lorde charade). While not all that offensive, it's also not all that sympathetic.

Oddly enough, I was more offended by Boxtrolls. Probably because with South Park, I had watched quite a bit of the show a few years back, and I saw a few people reacting to the episode before, so I prepared myself for anything. But with Boxtrolls, I didn't know what to expect. Certainly not that.

A Planned Hiatus

Something I forgot to bring up in the video: I haven't figured out a plan for the old videos once my Blip account is deactivated. I could try uploading them to Youtube, but a few of these videos were blocked when I first uploaded them, so maybe I could upload them as unlisted videos, and then embed them here. We'll see how that goes.
