Being a superhero content creator, I really liked your take on the movie from a psychological POV. The best part was you did not give opposite reactions to what some pseudo-feminists do nowadays. I happily share the same thoughts on what representation & diversity really mean. And do keep bringing such videos so youngsters can also learn more about this topic through entertainment.

The Movie looks really good, I'm looking forward to seeing it. My 9.5 year old Nephew keeps asking me about it.

9.5 is rather specific and why is your nephew looking forward to it?
