Not gonna lie. Seeing this trailer really lifted my soul and made me smile. I know, this type of story has been so many times over the years. But the visual style and story of thelma wanting to be recognized by all is something everyone can relate to, when going down this path. It looks to be a another hit family film that i know many will love. Plus, good on the author for having two of his works adapted into animation.

Full disclosure, I almost said this was a bootleg My Little Pony movie, but surprisingly it's somewhat original. Plus if the creators of Napoleon Dynamite are involved, it might be good. The only problem is this looks like it'll go through the motions. Character is hiding a thing. Thing gets found out eventually. Character has lowest point. Character bounces back and there is resolution at the end.

The whole film is a big promotion of the Mulvaney/Thomas agenda.

[@alxiice]

​@@Asertix357 Wtf do you have in your head to say things like that ? It's just a beautiful heartful movie for kids, like "Sing" is for example.

[@Asertix357]

@@alxiice Because that's exactly what it is. The horse is pretending to be a unicorn, because the world didn't care about it as long as it was just a normal talking horse. It pretends to be a unicorn and everyone is tripping over themselves in response because now it's special. It's exactly like Mulvaney and Thomas. Nobody cared about them when they were lackluster men. But they pretend to be women and society is kneeling/bowing down before them.

[@alxiice]

@@Asertix357 well no, Thelma never considered herself as a unicorn, just some people view her as one and she uses that to promote her career. She realises by the end that pretending to be someone she's not is making her unhappy because she lost her precious friend in the process. There is absolutely no transgender trope in the book, so don't speak without knowing what you're talking about please

[@alxiice]

@@Asertix357 also I know transphobes are obsessed with trans people but projecting your transphobia on a movie for kids is disgusting. So stop being a pervert and try to keep your hands for yourself
