[@acedelta12]

A lot of people give Branch crap for “singing killed my grandma”. The thing is, he’s traumatized. His singing got him exposed to a Bergen, and his grandma made a self-sacrifice to save Branch at the cost of her own life. Now, whenever Branch hears singing, he’s reminded of his grandma’s death, and he doesn’t want to feel that pain. Why they didn’t do more with this, I don’t know. But I love how just when everyone thinks the situation is hopeless, Branch is the first to step up. The main thing I wish they’d done is give a lot more importance and relevance to said trauma, which would make the already-good moment of Branch singing again even better. That’s just my take, feel free to agree or disagree.

It all makes sense now, and as a fan of all music genres except for trap music (depending on how it was handled, like Kenan Thompson Troll’s song in the movie being shameless pandering to kids), teen pop (when their production is boring, their lyrics are one-dimensionally tweeny or both like some of Shawn Mendes’ music like Sweatshirt by one of the most untalented and death-disrespecting people when he was relevant in the late 2010s, and around the same time, Treat You Better which is about him demanding a young woman to break up with her boyfriend not as a friend, but am just so he can treat her the same way with his Bice Guy Syndrome, and when it comes to his racist comment about black people in the last decade, it shows!!!!), I trust both sayings! XD

[@jooree7696]

I'm an introvert who likes rock n roll. What should i do, seriously...

[@khickenmoney107]

Correct me if I'm wrong here but wasn't the whole point in the movie that denying the differences in the music cultures is denying who they are as a person and that Poppy needed to understand that you can embrace your differences without changing them and that her way was not the only right way to go about things. I could have swore that at the end the movie she even said she was wrong and differences do matter. Not really trying to defend a kids movie just trying to make sure I understood the plot.

Alternate plotline: Poppy and the other trolls embody toxic positivity, and the Bergens are a depressed race who are misunderstood as villains for not being happy all the time. Poppy’s father dies, and as she assumes the role of queen, everyone around her tries to brainwash her into believing that happiness is the only acceptable way to be and anyone who isn’t happy should be forced into happiness, like branch. Poppy and branch go on the quest to save their friends because of the evil chef, and along the way poppy learns that it’s ok to be serious and sad, and branch learns that it’s ok to lighten up and be happy. In the end the other trolls are trying to be happy and positive and loud when it clearly isn’t warranted and is antagonizing the Bergen’s even more, so poppy stands up and says that the Bergen’s were right and they were wrong, and it’s ok to be sad sometimes and happy other times. The two races help each other, no “introvert bad” or “depressed? Try not being depressed!” Message.

Say it with me folks: Being introverted is not a flaw that needs to be “fixed”. Some people would rather be by themselves and it’s rude to assume they’re just depressed and need to be changed.

[@wyntertheicewyvern6226]

Even if they are depressed, it's not something that can just 'be changed'. Forcing someone who is upset or depressed to be social can make them feel worse. And especially so if it's something you want, and not what they want. When trying to comfort a depressed person, different things work in different scenarios. But never force them into it.

I’m an introvert, I also have autism and bad anxiety, I’m not that type of person who always wants to be around people, Me even being in room with only 10 people will start to give me an anxiety attack, and I’ll just start crying, it’s horrible, And when people force me into something I don’t like, or try to force me to be really happy, I just feel angry and even worse than before, all people should know that just because you may be the type of person who like being around people, and is always loud and happy, doesn’t mean that everyone else has to be like that, and being an introvert is not a bad thing,

I absolutely hated it--the character design, the color palette, even some songs (except Sound of Silence, that cover was actually pretty good but I hated how it's "mocked" with it being a sad song and putting some "happy" twist to it, but the harmonies were awesome). I also got extremely annoyed with Poppy throughout the film. I tried to be patient, but it tested me a lot. I guess you can say we all relate to Branch. But revisiting it now, I think I either didn't watch the full thing in full comprehension because of how much it tested my patience (they could have deleted that annoying high five scene with the cloud but they didn't), because the message is actually there, just not well-anunciated. I think the message was that the toxic positivity of Poppy and the trolls literally led to their downfall. They lived in the privilege of being in a very safe environment and never had to face hardships and negative emotions. Branch, the only "woke" person in the community is ignored even though his reasoning is on point. That would have been an amazing reference to the cave allegory, but the way it's written is very biased to the cave side of the story. It's only during the climax where they all get depressed that the outcast gets heard, and that would have been cool if it were written a different way.. I believe what the writers wanted to say to kids was "The world isn't all sunshine and rainbows, and it's necessary to be cautious to be safe and even use that negativity as important lessons; but when it gets to that darkest point, you still need to have hope." That's a great lesson to learn, but it wasn't written in the best way given how ambiguous the motivations of Branch are through Poppy's eyes. I think the biggest writing mistake here was that the main character was Poppy and that we see through her POV instead of Branch's to get a clearer message. We just seen Branch suddenly change his mind in the climax and without necessary exposition or show to process his trauma and emotions, we're left with another "aw, cheer up, it's gonna be okay, I was wrong for being sad, sorry". TLDR revising Trolls now, it has a fine message. Just a terrible delivery and kid-pandering, but given Dreamwork's Shrek did better than Prince of Egypt, I'd see why they'd invest on this instead of actually amazing films.

They could've had more with their misery to teach kids a lesson of how happiness is subjective. Also, justice for Branch, he definitely doesn't deserve Poppy.

If the Cloud Guy kept pushing for physical contact, like a hug, and Poppy stood up for Branch because he didn't want to hug a stranger. Then the Chef is a more forceful or aggressive character that tries to hurt the trolls, before they fight her off in self-defense. And Bridget and the King could show clear consent of receiving affection, like asking for a kiss or to hold hands.

I'm see a lot of people making fun of Branch for not singing because singing killed his grandma, but I can see where he's coming from. Think about it. You're a little kid living in a area with people that eat you. You were singing a song that makes you happy and as we know, bergins eating trolls make them happy. You were singing and catch a bergin's attention. They think. "Oh, this troll sounds really happy, so if I eat this one, I'll be just as, if not, happier." The bergin goes to reach for you, only to have your grandmother, who you probably really close with and possibly living with because your parents got eaten too, save your life by trading you for herself to get eaten. That's is traumatic for a little kid to see your grandmother get killed in front of you just because you were singing.

But... he wasn't like everyone else in the second one. He was still smart, prepared, and cautious, and constantly tried to talk sense. He just wasn't depressed anymore. And he followed poppy because he loved her and wanted to help her. And even then he snapped some sense into her before the climax. He was also the only troll to be able to vibe with other kinds of music.

I remember watching this movie with my parents and younger siblings. 2 minutes after the movie my dad realized the llama thing didn't look like a normal troll, and I heard him just kind of go "wait....what the fuck was that thing" And honestly that glimpse of genuine confusion from the parent I went to to ask questions was the highlight of my week

It might be my autism speaking, but this movie made me SO overstimulated. The constant bright colors, the high energised toxic positivity, not to mention the loud screaming and yelling. Never had a movie managed to ACTUALLY give me a headache before this. So congrats to them I guess 💀

[@jones4106]

This movie made me so mad the first time I watched it that I became obsessed with it. Just... The way it treated its "mental health" moral and the way all the other characters treated obviously depressed and traumatized Branch... It was a hell of a movie to watch while depressed and traumatized.

[@thaliabalia9871]

Im sorry. Being depressed and traumatized sucks and I hope you're feeling better now!

[@bombdotcom2168]

My grandma was obsessed with the story of the movie for the longest time because she genuinely believes my various issues are all due to me being sad and just needing to be around more people. She watched this movie with my youngest brother a lot when I had to visit for family gatherings or to deliver orders of cookies she paid for and always took the opportunity to mention how great the message was :D Pushing a traumatized introvert with social issues into a group of people isn't good. In fact it is quite bad in my opinion.

[@LFanimes333]

@@bombdotcom2168 What’s your suggestion? Staying like that forever? It’s true that there’s no easy solution, that said, pushing yourself *IS* necessary regardless of how comfortable it will make you feel or not. Sure, going all out at once is the wrong way to do it. But doing nothing? That’s pretty much just setting yourself up for failure.

[@bombdotcom2168]

@@LFanimes333 Seek help from a professional, learn coping skills that help you personally and find ways to process the trauma in a healthy way. I never said to sit around and stew with the trauma

[@LFanimes333]

@@bombdotcom2168 So your suggestion basically boils down to paying money and then never ever pushing yourself so you never learn how to get minimally tough and deal with new situations yourself. But that’s not a bad thing because you have a paid therapist to tell you how you should deal with each trauma every time something bad happens. This way, you never have to worry about stressful situations. Plus, if things get too bad, you can always resort to drugs. Yeah, sounds promising to me. People unironically thinking like that is pretty much what created the generation with the objectively highest rate of suicide in the last few centuries.
