She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)
Life changing
If you need a show with central LGBTQ+ representation, this is the show for you! The show does a brilliant job tackling topics such as abuse and manipulation. It's a diverse crew of princesses. This show tells young girls that no matter what you look like, you can be a princess and you can change the world for the better.
If you want your kids to grow up accepting people, regardless of their race, looks, who they love, etc. then this is definitely worth a watch with them. One character is coded to be autistic, and the show does a great job of expressing how people think and express themselves in different ways. The show has a good level of humor, too.
I cannot praise this show enough. It gives me so much hope, and the general theme that love and understanding conquers hate and ignorance feels more important now than ever, and helps to make it seem like the world might not be as terrible and hopeless as it seems.
Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020)
SO MUCH FUN!
If you're looking for a bright, funny action film with some iconic comic characters, please watch. I went with someone who knows very little about the universe, but still enjoyed the movie.
If we're comparing it to Joker, it's the exact opposite feel. It's really just a joyride. Don't go in looking for any deep messages. It's more upbeat, with a few serious scenes that really establish the threat. Warning, there is a scene with sexual harassment that was very jarring, and it's definitely a rated R film in regards to the swearing and violence.
Personally, I left the theater wanting more, immediately planning to watch it again in a day or two and I convinced a few friends to come with me. The music is really outstanding. It's about as absolutely crazy as you'd expect from a story told from Harley Quinn's POV.
The acting is phenomenal, the action scenes are freaking fantastic, and I'm excitedly awaiting the next time I get to see Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn. She was made for the role!
After a stressful first month of the year, this movie was exactly what I needed to shrug off the bad, and get ready to fight whatever life throws at me. A must-see film, even if you don't typically watch superhero stuff!
