Superheroes: Female Representation and Masculinity
Hi! It’s Annie! The topic of female characters in superhero films has always been a rough one; but one of the most difficult topics to cover is the expected masculinity in women in major action roles. For years it’s seemed like in order for a woman to kick ass she also has to act moreContinue reading “Superheroes: Female Representation and Masculinity”
Twins in Media (Round 2): Dipper and Mabel vs. Thing 1 and Thing 2
Hi! It’s Annie! And we continue the second round of twins in media! This time, if you’ve read some of my past posts, you’ll know that the winner for this pairing is probably really obvious. To be completely honest, I would say the exact same thing about them. But I’m at the beginning of writingContinue reading “Twins in Media (Round 2): Dipper and Mabel vs. Thing 1 and Thing 2”
Twins in Media: (Round 2) Hallie and Annie vs. Hikaru and Kaoru
Hi! It’s Annie! We’re in round two and finally starting to get into the twin representations that are actually pretty good! The first two are pitted together simply because they both fall deep into the mischievous twins trope; but both have been pretty consistently good up until this point. Really, it’s going to be difficultContinue reading “Twins in Media: (Round 2) Hallie and Annie vs. Hikaru and Kaoru”
Twins in Media: The Tweedles vs Thing 1 and Thing 2
Hi! It’s Annie! I know this is early, but as I am planning a different post for Tuesday, I thought it would be best to be a little early. This week for twins in media, we’re going to take a look at the twins from classic literature that, if you’ve read our previous posts aboutContinue reading “Twins in Media: The Tweedles vs Thing 1 and Thing 2”
Twins in Media: Dipper and Mabel vs. Poppet and Widget
Hi! It’s Annie! Another week of the twin showdown and now we have one that is truly going to hurt me, but this time it’s actually because both of these depictions are so good! The last time I posted I completely tore into pairs of twins that were so terrible that declaring a winner wasContinue reading “Twins in Media: Dipper and Mabel vs. Poppet and Widget”
K-pop and K-dramas: Ma Hyeon-yi
Hi! It’s Annie! I am interrupting our regularly scheduled programming because I have to rave about ‘Itaewon Class’ which I just finished. While there will be a post coming soon reviewing the entire drama, as my sister and I did have some problems with it, I needed an entire post to talk about this specificContinue reading “K-pop and K-dramas: Ma Hyeon-yi”
Twins in Media: Janice and Jessica vs Sumire and Kasumi
Hi! It’s Annie! I know, I know. Generally we post these on Tuesday, but because we took Thanksgiving as a holiday, it’s today because it’s my twins in media week. Because it’s my week for these ‘versus’ posts, I decided to take the pairs of twins I have probably roasted the most and pit themContinue reading “Twins in Media: Janice and Jessica vs Sumire and Kasumi”
Twins in Media: Sumire and Kasumi
Hi! It’s Annie! Welcome to another (slightly late) twins in media week! This will be the last week we do posts formatted like this, so next week we’ll be moving onto different ventures with twins in media. There’s definitely more to come! For our last week we decided on video games and, to be honest,Continue reading “Twins in Media: Sumire and Kasumi”
Twins in Media: Phoebe and Ursula Buffay
Hi! It’s Annie! Welcome back to twins in media week! Hopefully this will help distract from everything happening today, because for this I chose the classic and wholesome television show ‘Friends’! This beloved show has become one of the favorites for television watchers all over the world and you would be hard-pressed to find anyoneContinue reading “Twins in Media: Phoebe and Ursula Buffay”
