Paranorman

[ericadawn16]

Okay, paranorman was not as pretty or involved as Coraline. However, it is a beautiful story about how anger and fear turns into bigotry, bullying and violence which turns into a self-sustaining cycle BUT we can stop this cycle with trying to understand and feel empathy for those who seem so different from us because they're really not.

I do wish we got to meet the football star's boyfriend...

I loved the message too. I just wish the entire movie had been as engaging as the third act where things really got good.

But also... though the reveal of that one certain character having a boyfriend pleasantly surprised me, I couldn't really enjoy the moment much because several children in my theater simultaneously went "Ewww!" It was extremely upsetting. The message went right over their heads. :(
