Hi Patrons! Sorry for the lack of recent updates on my end. I've suddenly gotten very busy because I'm MOVING!!!!! I am a figurative basement dweller no more. Exciting, but it means I've had a lot on my plate lately in terms of planning/packing/shopping/lifting things, etc.

My most immediate update is that I'm currently editing an unscripted bonus video for the Patreon, another one where I review a bunch of movies I've seen in the last couple months. You'll hear me talk about everything from Burlesque (2010) to Dateless to Dangerous: My Son's Secret Life (2025). I think it's pretty funny! That should be ready in the next few days.

I give more specific updates about channel stuff in said upcoming Patreon video, but to recap here, I'm currently tentatively thinking I'll make a video about the Bring It On franchise in some capacity. I'm just trying to decide if I'll make a video about all of the movies + the musical, or perhaps a video entirely about the musical. I've realized I have a good deal to say about the musical. (If anyone needs a refresher or had no idea there was a Bring It On musical, the entire Broadway show is up on YouTube as a boot-- I mean Slime Tutorial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8tNPeu42Ek&t=763s ) Right now, I'm just watching through all the related media and hoping that will clarify the decision for me.

Thank you for your patience! Patreon video coming soon, then I'll get more concrete about what's next on the channel.

i am a bring it on historian and wrote a 10 page essay on the way black women are portrayed in it so to say i’m hyped to see that vid is an understatement

Ah yes, Bring It On: The Musical, the great black sheep of the Lin-Manuel Miranda canon

It feels like no one really knows about it! I honestly really like a lot of his music in it, it's very of the In the Heights era and I find something kind of nostalgic about that. Same with the mini musical he did for This American Life back in the day

It’s really underrated imo! Im shocked people didn’t flock to it at some point, it has a lot of the lin manuel-isms people like.

It’s like, every movie is racist to black women in a different way, it’s kind of impressive actually lmao

my sister’s ranking of the bring it on movies is - bring it on 1 is on a separate category that doesn’t get compared to the rest - then 5,3,6,4,7 - then there is no second movie in ba sing se - then above all of them, the satirical 2009 cheerleader comedy fired up (its on her lb top 4)

truly ! like gabrielle union has a letter to her character from the first movie in her second memoir where she digs into the racial implications of her character and how it gives into the idea that in order for black women to win in life they need to not be angry or loud no matter how valid the issue and raise above. which, is just filled with misogynoir and THAT MOVIE IS LEAST RACIST ONE
