    The problem with these extremely watered down portrayals of complex social issues is that a lot of the time the simplification leads them to be unintentionally tone deaf. A lot of the time, the allegory for the dominant group have a very viable reason to not want the allegory for the oppressed group in their society. The message goes from “We shouldn’t hate people because they’re different” to “We know this group of people are dangerous but we still shouldn’t question their integration because reasons”.

      The worst part is the allegories can't be coincidence, zombies are a segregated class that are inherently violent and need bands (or to become just like the oppressor) to control those urges, werewolves are "savage" beasts who have a magical connection to the land, and this one has an aliens invading and takes their jobs, not to mention in all of these movies they act like the Jim crow laws were just because of misunderstandings. The fact that they use actual racist ideas and stereotypes to create the minorities is honestly somewhat offensive. It's not like it challenges them, but instead it says that they are true

      it sucks bc I'm Puerto Rican and I grew up in Puerto Rico for 90% of my life but a lot of my culture is suppressed for similar reasons to one of the actresses in the movie: we lived in a wealthy area with a lot of white people, and because it was pushed down our throats that "America is so much better" and that "speaking English is way more valuable". But now all of a sudden, white ppl online are acting like being Latino is so quirky and cool as if they don't call us b**ners and constantly tell us to "go back to our country" (as if they didn't literally colonize us - not to mention Puerto Ricans literally have US citizenship).

    Edit: I've gotten a few comments jokingly saying that Bucky's gonna come back a drag queen. And even though the idea of Bucky in drag is funny, what I'm saying is that there's no way Bucky can survive space travel or be able to use alien technology

    Edit: upon further inspection if the aliens represented neurodivergence it would have far improved Addison’s presence, she never felt as though she had fit in and it would have been because neurodivergent people leave in a world not designed for them.

    2 things about Addison in this movie:
    1. In Alien Invasion while everyone else panics and looks terrified while she stares up in awe. Theen when Zed tries to snap her out of it they end up having a conversation about their relationship while the earth is shaking and the town is literally burning. She then says the line “We don’t even know what they came here to do” as a car explodes about 10 feet away from her. Like I get that her character is all accepting and whatnot but they are literally destroying your home.
    2. It is really weird and suspicious how quickly she was convinced to leave her entire life behind for some aliens she’d met 2 days ago. After all that she would leave Zed, her parents and friends because she found out that she was only 25% alien. Idk I guess I didn’t expect this to be what she meant when she ravels on about in 3 songs about how she doesn’t fit in and needs to find her people.

    Honestly, my biggest gripe with the movie is that Addison is “the most precious thing in Seabrook”. Like, you’d think coming from her grandmother, that her MOM would be. I just find it strange that the grandmother would place these ever evolving coordinates in someone with a fraction of the blood deemed necessary for space travel. Sure, Addison awakened her powers soon after meeting the aliens (a bit randomly), but the grandmother wouldn’t know that. That, and why did they have to be placed in the “most precious thing”? As I was watching the movie, I thought for a little while that the coordinates would actually be in the cup, and that Addison WOULDN’T wind up being the center of everything for once. Fat chance of that happening
    Overall though, I unironically enjoyed the movie

    I love that Addison see’s the aliens basically destroyed the town and immediately try to make friends with them, it’s easy to notice but the more minorities Addison invited into her clique the dumber she becomes. But besides that I really don’t like the way that they frame Addison’s character, because her conflict is heavily repeated in the last two movies. If I was gonna describe the movie in a nutshell it would be "white woman finds out she’s a quarter black and gets box braids". That’s it, that’s the movie.
    Also the actor for Aspen plays a non binary character in Never Have I Ever and that show is much more enjoyable than all of these movies combined, the actor deserves way more love

      ok but it's worse than that. the whole inherently-dangerous-and-deadly thing is specific to racial stereotypes. the black people allegory = inherently animalistic and extra strong and need to be controlled, the indigenous allegory = "in tune" with nature, stuff about their culture being really violent or weird, and the immigrant allegory = sneaking in to steal valuables. theyre literally doing race realism 😭
      so if they're staying on brand, that doesn't work. mermaids luring people to their deaths and eating them doesn't really map to a stereotype about disabilities. it'd have to be something about faking for attention, or leeching off of communal resources, that kind of thing. maybe inspiration porn.

      I 100% agree with what you’re saying but I don’t think the creator was trying to say that Puerto Rican immigrants don’t face discrimination. I think they thought the Puerto Rican actress was South Asian and corrected themselves.
      The aliens are pretty clearly meant to be asian immigrants because of the whole “they’re so good at math and work like robots so they’ll take your jobs” thing which is part of the “model minority” stereotype used to pit asian immigrants against other minorities in the US… just like how the zombies and werewolves are being pitted against the aliens. I’m just glad that Disney shut down Zombies before they found a new insulting group of characters for a thinly veiled metaphor about Latino people lol.

      important context for tall girl is that it was directed by nzingha stewart, who is a black woman. and who has SPECIFICALLY talked about how difficult it is for black directors to get positions directing non-black movies, and how tallgirl is more about dealing with internal insecurities than it is about bullying and oppression. like i think chances are she gets it, and besides, that movie is definitely not doing what zombies is doing 💀

They had to had been there like 50ish years ago at least and nobody has talked about a possible alien sighting that happened before. And it wasn't just like a dandy visit; an alien had to fuck some human and HAD A BABY which means that they probably stayed longer than a day. Also, why would only 1 alien, the leader, be the only one who had a baby there??? Where are the other half-quarter aliens?? They also never talk about Addison's mom. Does she have alien powers? Why isn't she reuiniting as well? The aliens just seem like a shitty excuse to have Addison be in the minority and for the show to battle racism again.

  • @MostlyAnimatedSketches

    I think A-spen is the first non-binary *live-action* Disney character, but I think Raine in The Owl House was introduced before this movie came out, so they're not the first in general Disney. Unless I'm wrong, idk. But even then, it technically does mean that A-spen is the first canonically non-binary *and* bisexual Disney character.
    Shoving random characters into relationships for no reason is *such* a kids movie thing lol, but I hope that this means that they'll actually get some proper interactions together in the upcoming animated series. Also, fun fact, I think a lot of people shipped Eliza and Willa before this movie, so I bet those people were upset.

Have a plant creature become a zombie, and have a zombie yell at them “You’re not a zombie. Zombie are zombies. You were born a plant creature. Plant creatures are not zombies.”
    Maybe throw in a plot line with Zed taking the chemical to become human (in order to play football or wherever). He of course faces backlash from humans for transitioning from zombie to human. Zed regrets becoming human and turn back into a zombie.
    Maybe have Allison’s favorite author come out as anti plant creature or something.

And I really liked how much chaos it brings to introduce 4 different species over 3 movies. But also, I was in a DCOM mood after watching these so I decided to watch High School Musical 3 afterwards and so my lasting impression of this movie is just that HSM 3 is much better.

    A commenter mentioned how the werewolves called him a leader and “the best footballer she’s ever see and (what’s her name) calls him a “charismatic green machine” and I can’t stop thinking about their arguments. They are using descriptions they want to associate themselves with, but Zed proved in each film that he is a good football player, a leader, and has charisma that allows people to listen to him.
    I also love how the cheerleaders, Addison’s parents, and the principal support him since they were fighting against him since day 1. I also like that after helping the Aliens, they help him with his scholarship. It really shows the unity he helped create.
    And I never get tired of “now I live in his basement.” One of the best jokes ever.
