So, I watched Dear White People in like 2 days. I knew the title was just basically clickbait, and everyone online said it was quite good, so I thought eh, why not.

It turned out to be a lot better than I was anticipating, but not perfect.

At any rate, I thought the most interesting part of the whole show was how well balanced it was. The "antagonists" weren't just straight white-supremacist stereotypes, Sam wasn't some all knowing flawless hero. Everyone was on a pretty even playing field.

A nice change from the internet, where things are... different haha.

I also liked how the show really dove into the idea of intent vs. action. I know pretty much every movie and TV show is about this is some way, but the whole point of the show, at least in my eyes, was about intentions and how they can be good, but you can still do bad things.

But, like I said, there were a few parts that made no sense. That guy dies, and none of the main characters care at all. His death is the butt of a joke? Seriously?

Anyway, I made this video BEFORE the Johnny Depp one. I'm working on something that, if it works out, could be pretty cool. It might totally fail, though.

I tried to go back and touch up some of my old graphics/effects since I can do so much better now. Hope you don't mind.

Either way, I'm off to finished Mother 3.
