When I first saw the ads, it sounded dumb and I didn’t give it any more thought - I just had no interest in it. But like the author of that article, the more I read/hear about it, the more interested I am in it - especially since it seems to be pissing off all the very same demographics who cause the majority of our modern problems. I’m not sure if I’m willing to pay theater prices to see it, but I’ll definitely watch it when it becomes rentable via some streaming services.
It’s funny, because my wife and I were just talking about it last night - and she’d mentioned some of this very same stuff.
I was expecting a fish out of water comedy with nostalgic fan service, got a point blank meta commentary on what it means to be a woman in modern Western society and how it influences and effects everyone including men. It’s unapologetically feminist while being playful and light enough to still be fun.
And yet the movie killed at the box office.
B-b-but… GO WOKE GO BROKE! How else can I possibly rationalize that my opinions might just be in the minority? My fragile masculinity can’t handle it!

What is meant by the sound of freedom in the movie? Does it happen to be a fart by any chance?
Do “Christians” who would listen to this sort of thing go to see movies that aren’t labeled as “Christian Films” anyway?
Don’t kid yourself, despite the immense and pervasive Christian media bubble, it’s mostly garbage and they all know it. They indulge in the good stuff even while they publicly condemn it.
I’m sorry for your experience. I shouldn’t have implied an absolute. Obviously there are more extreme examples out there. I grew up with no television, but there were still loopholes my parents would allow.
