I feel like I'm coming around to agreeing with the Cracked guy that all these movies about some white kid trying something for the first time in their life and then winning the big competition six months later are bad for societyhttps://twitter.com/Karnythia/status/1283867065217097728 …

I mean in Save the Last Dance at least she was supposed to be an extremely talented dancer already and just didn't know anything about hip-hop, and then invents ballet/hip-hop fusion Which is... still wildly unrealistic but not as bad

This is just pure nerdy white girl fantasy the way The Karate Kid is pure nerdy white boy fantasy Except Mr Miyagi is hot and she fucks him

It is funny and shitty how they set up a queer Black kid to be the coach from Rudy The person who becomes the designated villain of the movie whom we root for to suffer just because he denied the protagonist a job she wasn't qualified for, which is in fact his whole duty

I guess it's not as bad as Rudy As many people pointed out the weird moral of the movie seemed to be that you should let anyone who wants to start on a college football team so they can be immediately killed

Lol this is worse than Rudy in a different way though Like she's clearly not someone who's dreamed of being a dancer her whole life but her physique wasn't up to it She straight up says she just wants to be a dancer to pad her college apps Why the hell should he care

oh so I wasn't missing anything, white privilege CV filler was the entire point? it's not really a very big motivation?

It's partly her CV and partly apparently that she's really upset there's something cool and prestigious at her school she can't participate in
