2/11/20 additional themes from the film Birds of Prey

Here is the link to my February 11, 2020, Twitter thread discussion of some themes (a lot of them more queer or fem-social) that I noticed in the film Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn).

I should note that this review discusses my thoughts on why the film didn't seem to get much traction at the box office. A lot of people argued back then, and many argue today, that the reason was that people were hesitant to go out because of COVID.

I didn't mention this at all in this thread. There are reasons for this, which I'll discuss in a "thoughts" post later on. However, I didn't COVID fears as a factor in this thread, even though I was perfectly aware that that's what many people were already attributing low box office numbers to.

3/4/18 review of Nancy Drew novel The Bungalow Mystery

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the Nancy Drew novel The Bungalow Mystery, by Carolyn Keene.

The thread gives a summary of the novel and some background on the Nancy Drew series and my experiences reading it. The thread discusses how the book plays with form. It explores a lot of what I call the "femme-social" aspects of the book, as well as some very clear moments of girl-girl attraction and eroticism in the book. The thread also discusses aspects of Nancy's attraction to her father, her wish to have a mother and to be a mother, and her desire to be individualistic and not tied to anybody at all romantically.

The tweets in some of my threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. This thread's coherency is slightly affected as a result. My apologies.
