@deanduncan63Saw #ParaNorman. Great lookin’, w’ a nice message. The Other ≠ Monster/Sociopath. Or …
… as the Bible so anciently & toweringly states: http://bit.ly/1G4Sqay
#ParaNorman is also quite clearly, quite effectively a post-California Proposition 8 text. Consider: “… I didn’t ask to be born this way…”, etc. etc.
W’ its political context/subtext, I also find #ParaNorman to have a nice message, rather dubiously or duplicitously stated …
… Behind all of its craft & ingratiation we have straw-man straights, tormenting heroic, even/eventually life-saving difference.
#ParaNorman. Are some of you thinking that’s just what Prop 8 proponents are, & what they deserve? Fair enough …
… A question, though. Will sneering antagonism help the conversation? Or help young viewers see things more subtly & fairly?
#ParaNorman. Ends very well! For another nice message, ’08 political parallels, & skillfully/sneakily rhetorical rendering see Monsters vs. Aliens (2009).
