    ★★★

    A James Bond knock off that prioritizes the villainess and her scantily, cape-clad henchwomen over the lame-o trying to stop her. There's a male villain who reads Popeye comics too haha

They look like magazine cutout collages. I can't tell if they're…

    I love that a movie where a non-binary person falls in love with an agender forest elf is the most traditional movie that Scott Hillman (Baby Cat, Bikini Hackers) has made! It's also a Christmas movie with zero Christmas decorations. They do reference Christmas a lot though. Scott Hillman movies make me feel seen in a way no one else does. Socks Whitmore needs to be the lead in more things. They are an actual agender actor (playing a non-binary…
