Why would you link “redlining” through the New York Times? I’m genuinely curious. Haha, I love your reviews, don’t get me wrong. But on a site that’s doing good work warning people about woke media, you could’ve linked to one of a hundred other sources, and not one of the most, if not THEE most woke text-based media sources in the United States. That just gives them site traffic when people click on it; and I don’t think anyone here, including yourself, wants that, hahaha! Anyways, cheers, and thanks for the article.

I disagree the woke message has been “just be yourself.” To me it’s always been, “join us or else…” I saw the original film just last week. I had never heard of it prior. My friend from Italy couldn’t believe me. I enjoyed the original and felt relatively safe watching a 20 year old film–safe from snooty left wing virtual signaling. The lines the reviwer highlighted seem extremely woke to me, enough to keep me from watching the remake.

While Hollywood is obsessed with making remakes, I wish they would do a modern version of ” The Watermelon Man” where a White man takes a new medication and it turns him Black and all he goes thru when that happens. But in a new version, I would love to see a movie where the opposite happens and someone like Rev Al Sharpton wakes up White and has to put up with anti White racism and discrimination.

High school flicks like this one have never been honest portrayals of what high school actually looks like for most students. Mean Girls has always been a fantasy for those who are hyper-sexualized and either were status-chasers or wanted to be status-chasers.

If there is a real lesson that should be gleaned from a film about unlikable and hypocritical girls bullying each other because they take pleasure in seeing people suffer, it should be that behaving arrogantly and cutting others down doesn’t make you a better or happier person. That, and it’s not worth it to throw away your best traits and embrace bad ones to impress people who aren’t even good at pretending to be your friends. I didn’t learn that from reading any self-help books or watching high school movies. Life taught me that around the age of 13, and I’m glad I learned it early. Many young people never learn and retain their childish status-chasing habits well into adulthood.

I thought this was a movie adaptation of the popular Broadway musical? Either way, I’m not watching this. The musical never interested me, nor did the movie. And I’m a theater kid.

Only one correction: Dyed its hair, not died. Otherwise, great work! I won’t be seeing this one.

I love you guys… but why did you even review this one hahaha. I mean, I don’t know anyone that was going to watch this. This is a blue haired septum piercing tiktok Gen Z trash movie.

Keep up the good work… but there’s no reason to torture yourself.
