      The regionally indigenous humans (including various kinds of native Americans) as werewolves (or any other fantasy beast) concept is interesting, but it is terribly overused without twists or turns, in a way that disaffects everyone but the most vanilla minded of humans.

    Ok so hear me out… Zombies were an allegory for black people, and the humans think are afraid of them for being strong and aggressive, and think their hair is wacky and strange. That’s a bit to close to reality with the amount of discrimination there is simply for having black hairstyles. Now, we’ve got werewolves, an allegory for Native Americans, and everyone is scared of them because of their barbaric behavior and animal spirit practices. Sound familiar? It’s a little too on-the-nose for me. I haven’t seen the third with the aliens but if I swear to god if they are an allegory for immigrants I’m going to lose my mind.

    I LOVE (no i don't) how in every movie Addison feels the need to insert herself into serious racial issues. "My hair is white so I'm actually just like you" to the respective race allegory, Is like a white person saying "My hair is curly so I'm just like you" to a black person.
    Like Addison, honey, sweetheart, you wear a wig because you have white hair, Zombies were forced into segregation and discrimination and the only way for them to desegregate everything is to show that they boost the morale of their oppressors, and Werewolves were removed from their homeland by settlers who claimed it as their own and abused their resources for profit.

    I’ve talked about Addison being a white savior plenty of times but the way she acts in this movie felt less white savior ish and more like the mindset of every left-leaning white woman with a conservative boyfriend, as she acts like she’s being progressive but at the same time is passive aggressive. And the way she treats the werewolves afterwards is just downright gross in terms of real world examples, the zombies Halloween special ( which came after this movie ) follows the werewolves fearing that their moonstone will get taken away by vampires and while this isn’t canon it still says a lot about Addison’s character, since she quite literally tells them to try being less judgmental and think positively. She tried to live, laugh, love her way out of potential colonization and the short saw *nothing* wrong with this idea, even though there’s been an increase online of white people telling poc to get over tragedies like this. It’s just embarrassing

    Weird detail from the native american coding for the werewolves, during the song where Addison get's introduced to the werewolves (call to the wild? 30:56), in the choreography they include tinikling (the dance where they are jumping over sticks) which is a traditional Filipino dance. Which is just really weird? They're really devoted to the 1 to 1 native american coding of the werewolves so its just weird that they would do this.

    Also "Flesh & Bone" is a little overplayed but still good. Disney Channel has a series of shorts where animated characters sing parodies of actual songs ("Call Me Mabel" for instance), and they had the Big City Greens characters sing a parody of that song called "Stuck At Home", for the pandemic. It played alllll the time, I heard it so much. And yes, I was watching Disney Channel at the age of 16 lol

    I find that Disney channel trilogies have a formula like the first has the best plot, the second has the best songs, and the third is the worst.
    This is usually due to the first one not being restrained by the created universe, the second is when the actors get confident in their singing, and the third is shoehorned in there because money.

      The Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films had it much worse. There are twelve Tarzan films which featured Johnny Weissmuller as an in name only version of Tarzan.
      Four out of the first six films aren’t too bad, even though the third one’s the weakest, but the second one has the best plot, despite being meddled quite a lot. Four of the other six are still mid, even though Tarzan and the Leopard Woman has a plot nearly as good as that of Tarzan Finds a Son, whereas the last and worst one is Tarzan and the Mermaids.

    Also, the reason I love your ZOMBIES videos is because of the kind of line "she stops playing Native American and goes back to being white" bc you replacing the film's conflicts with the IRL allegories is such a great and hilarious way to show how bad the film is.

    As you mentioned though, there are a lot of problems with the story overall and symbolism. My main issues tend to do with how they made Addison's character, with her treating her white hair situation like it's similar to what Zombies and Werewolfs go through, and how the writing overdramatizes her desire to find where she belongs.
