No. Joy is a flawed protagonist. Like most, if not all of Pixar’s protagonists

I really like how you broke everything down into understandable pieces. Everything in "Inside Out" actually makes sense for a typical child and what happens when someone suppresses their feelings. Everything just connects together in "Inside Out" with some creativity added!

It’s crazy because I’ve loved that movie my whole life, since the age of 6, now that I’m 20 I’m going through exactly what Coraline was going through, I live at home with my dysfunctional family, I don’t really have a life yet, I don’t have any friends, and on top of that I live in a very isolated area, so I started miss-using weed to cope at 17, which led me to a lot of unfortunate situations, and worsened my already difficult issues, that’s what using substances to cope does to you, it simply makes things way worse; psychologically I’m struggling right now, but I’m already putting that effort on cultivating my life, I’m putting real effort on becoming better, right now I feel unstable, but with time I hope things get genuinely better, without the need of substances, I can’t wait to live again, thank you for your video, it helped me see my situation way differently.

What makes mother 2 a narcissist? Have you read the Dsm5TR criteria for the disorder or do people just throw the term around? (Don't get me wrong. The other mother is evil), but is she a true narcissist? I'm not sure. Maybe, she's more antisocial.

also when the othermother stiched everyone and put buttions as to signfy that she wanted coroline to be isolated and not talk to everyone which is what narccist do

This video misses the fact trans people can double jump 😊

what if wabes cat is in the body of his dad to protect him and Coraline from the beldom

Now do one on antz. Lol

"Alberto don't put that in your mouth!" Bruno. Don't put what in your mouth?

This is not a movie about gays. It's a movie about sea monsters: who happen to be gay.

This perfectly encapsulates my experience as a trans girl.

Though his character is obviously exaggerated for the purposes of entertainment, he is by far one of the most realistic depictions of NPD I’ve seen in media

when the narrator was disgusted by the idea of sleeping with a gorgeous woman like we been knew

The fire soundtrack was made by another trans person, Lena raine

The most common trans expiereince is unlocking double jump

Your video has really helped me. My girlfriend of seven years was cheating on me. I feel absolutely destroyed. I started thinking about death stranding and low roar lol. But yeah the way you compare death strandings quirky elements to very real afflictions like depression really resonated with me. I want to do another play through to get me through this depressive episode.

i actually do not agree with this. to me the gameplay or the music could represent various kinds of stress you encounter in life and shouldnt be only viewed through the trans lens. the feeling of being alone, that is, socially alienated or isolated and feeling like you dont belong in your skin, anxiety and suffering are a part of universal human experience and most people could relate to such a feeling, its as primal as fear. i feel like the decision by the developers to get the game labeled as the "experience of being trans" has hindered it in its artistic weight

woah so woke

"What makes Celeste even more special, is that you don't have to be LGBT to resonate with this message in some level" My brain who turned this plot into an autism analogy just nodding.

this is super underrated! I've tried to explain why celeste is trans to many of my friends now, and you explain it better than i ever could. great video, ty!

i gave celeste 9/10. it would be 10/10 if there would not be any trans character

Honestly, as a cis person, in my experience with the game I didn't really pick up on any of these things, but the story still really resonated with me the whole way through That's not to disregard the transness of the story though, it's extremely well-crafted and really helps convey what it's like for those who aren't trans If anything, I think the different interpretations are great, they managed to craft a story that can be interpreted in a really meaningful way to basically anybody.

Death Stranding makes me appreciate postal and delivery workers more. Especially after surviving Covid.

Die man?

Very underrated Video, I don’t understand how this only has 992 views

Enough with the bs theory that fight club is about gayness. It’s not.. it was not the intent of the writer or the Director. And yes, the person who wrote the book is a homosexual. That does not mean that the movie has anything to do with that. In fact, he said it didn’t. That’s just how some people want to perceive it.

Coraline definitely felt like a metaphor for my addiction with new age after going through horrible trauma as well as emotional neglect. It’s alluring at the surface but quickly gets to a destructive cult like demon in your life that promises everything but gives nothing

This hits so hard

I have aspd i once knew someone with npd like his ego seemed really big but he was so easy to offend and he was fragile at his core but i dont believe he can be helped like he would get angry for no reason and behave like a brat i got tired and bored of him quickly and he was a dick to my other friends like you can say anything to me but not my friends

I despise Homelander, yet at the same time pity him. He wants to be loved, yet has the inability to express it without selfish gain. He has no real friends, and people show him admiration only for his powers and those who truly know his true nature fear him for that same reason.

Most theorists: "She never escaped! It's all a dream!" This dude: "Yo Coralines smokin' fuckin crack."

All hail goth Madeline.

Very interesting, yet contradictory to what my first impression was with Inside Out. Right off the bat, I perceived Sadness as the villain and Joy as the hero.

The problem with Fight Club is that there are a couple of views from which to approach it. It doesn't preach to people like so many of today's movies. I do believe that the LGBTQ approach to Fight Club is very valid, especially after Chuck Palahniuk came out. There is also the Capitalism approach to Fight Club and the emasculation of men in general approach. Movies that are open to multiple interpretations are often the most interesting but also retain the power to make people uncomfortable years later. One movie that may be of interest to you to do a review of is 'Cruising' with Al Pacino from 1980. It actually is a bit of a forgotten movie these days. Many LGBTQ's these days have never even heard of it. One thing that fascinates me about Cruising is that, if one looks at the Gay community from two views: aesthetics and activism, then the community of gay men that is presented in Cruising is 100% aesthetics and 0% activism. The outside world simply doesn't mean anything to them. They are tribal in nature and tribal identification is easy for them due to the aesthetic. Cruising is a murder thriller which makes it unique amongst gay-themed movies. As such, it features lots of nighttime photography, which is a staple of the murder thriller genre. In this case though, the nighttime scenes serve a purpose ala' Fight Club in that this is the space in which these men can be themselves. They also have daytime lives but only out of necessity and not with any authenticity. Like the men of Fight Club, the men of Cruising are nocturnal and move through the New York scene of the late 1970's like leather-clad werewolves with saving the world and social justice being the last thing on their minds. In that sense, it is a movie that has become a kind of time capsule for a particular Gay scene that no longer exists.

OMG I just came across this video and I must say, you did an amazing job covering everything Luca has to offer in terms of its message and story. :') This was an extremely well-thought out analysis, and I couldn't agree more with your points of the film being an allegory for being LGBT. I don't think there's ever been a Disney or Pixar film that I've ever related to as much as this one. To be completely honest, Luca was one of the first films that led me to fully accept and realize that I'm bi, simply due to how much I related to the story, the characters, and their struggles of feeling alienated by the society they live in (a struggle I still feel often on a daily basis). Everything resonated with me so much and touched me so deeply, I still get brought to tears every single time I watch, or even think about Luca. :'( Luca is just breathtaking in so many ways, and it genuinely makes me sad that no one ever seems to talk about it anymore. To me, it's a beautiful heartwarming masterpiece that deserves all the love and attention in the world. <3 Plus, there's no denying just how sweet, wholesome, and adorable Luca and Alberto's relationship is, whether it's interpreted as a friendship or a romance. The way they care about each other so deeply is enough to bring anyone to tears. They kind of remind me of WALL-E and EVE from WALL-E, just through how much pure love and caring-ness they have for one another. I personally interpret Luca and Alberto's relationship as a romance, or at least the BEGINNING of a romance. There are many subtle signs of this throughout the film, with the two going through pretty much EVERY single romantic trope I can think of (the bittersweet goodbye, Alberto's never-ending protectiveness of Luca, the two watching a beautiful sunset together, watching the stars together, the fact that the two were planning on RUNNING AWAY TOGETHER...the list goes on). But the part that convinced me the most that Alberto had a crush on Luca, was actually a piece of art that was shown during the end credits. Luca's family, as well as Alberto, are talking with Luca over the phone. If you look closely, you can clearly see Alberto smiling and blushing over hearing Luca's voice as Luca's grandmother gives Alberto a look that seems to say "You've got a crush, don't you?😏" If you look at that particular art piece in the end credits, you'll know what I mean!😅 That was the moment where I thought, "Okay, there's NO way the creators didn't know what they were doing in this movie." Speaking of Alberto, the way he acts around Luca throughout the film reminds me a LOT of how I acted around one of my first same-gender crushes I had when I was nine. There was this girl in my class whom I really liked, who I would always try to impress and look cool around. I also felt really protective of her and tended to get...REALLY jealous whenever I saw her hanging out with any of the students in class other than me. So yeah...nine-year-old me would definitely have related to Alberto in that regard. XD Anyways, I know I'm super late to this video, but I ultimately wanted to say thank you for making this video and sharing your insight on this wonderful film. It helped me a lot in articulating in my mind, the reason I love Luca so much and why it why is resonates with me the way it does. Excellent work! :D Edit: fixed a few grammar mistakes. :) Also, thank you so much to anyone who read my full essay! <3

Ngl homelander needs some love and he needs to become hero instead of villain

as a middle eastern trans person i really loved celeste it made me feel like im not alone especially bc i struggle with anxiety and other stuff (that i dont feel comfortable sharing here) especially bc lgbtqia+ in the middle east is a big no no i found the ending to me being a message that everything will turn for the best but i just have to fight through it (now obviously for alot of people unfortunately that isn't the case and depression anxiety etc is a part of me and many others that we can't just ignore but we can only face it and try to look at the bright side)

Thank you for making this video! I tried Celeste because i saw so many memes about it from trans people. I couldn't keep up so I decided to watch a story summary which did well on touching on emotional self love themes. However, that alone didn't really explain why other trans people resonated so much with the game aside from covering that Madeline is cannonically trans. This video did a good job explain why trans gamers love this game so much so truly again, thank you

This is such a lovely video 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

this is great but please look into the síle na gig (woman masturbating statue)-it’s pre-christian and has lots of different meanings, none of which are exploitative

Riley is so perfect 😍😢

I absolutely loved the Purl short. Everyone has had a Purl moment at some point in life. This shirt brings it to the forefront in a fun way.

great video! Being trans myself, this game definitely made a huge impact on me. It's interesting to hear how different people resonated with the message. I made a video analysis on my channel as well, and I think we both discuss the game in very unique and different ways while still returning to the essence of empathy and love.

Nah. The writer has done interviews. Fight club is not about the lgbtq community.

This game made me go on a deep self-reflective journey *one I'm still on* and I watched a walkthrough of it. Can't imagine what actually playing it would be like

Perfect/accurate analysis.

It is about time that the great weight of arguments that there are to defend Toy Story 4 is spread more. The movie is not perfect, but it is not a bad movie at all. Thank you very much for sharing your analysis and all your reflections. It's not spam, but I recently uploaded a video about Toy Story 4 that I'd love for you to watch, the subtitles are in English.

Great video. I got Celeste on a Steam sale in 2019, played it obsessively and beat the original release in about 8 hours, over the course of a weekend. I loved it so much that I felt compelled to write an in-depth Steam review for it, which I'd never actually done before. I just felt like there was something so special about it, that I hoped I could encourage at least one or two other people to try it. In the review, I gushed about the gameplay, the gorgeous art and music, but *most* of all, how relatable the story and character were, and how easy it was to self-insert into Madeline's story. Quote: "It may not speak to all gamers, but I think for a lot of us, Madeline's shoes might feel like a good fit. It's not very often that I find myself identifying so closely with a pixelated sprite in an indie game, but I was **right** there, for this one." That was two years before I found out (officially) that Madeline is trans. It was almost four years before I realized that I am, too. Hindsight is funny.

Six and the Lady are fundamentally different characters.

All thumbs down 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
