    hey so obviously this isn't like a normal video or anything. I just wanted to make a quick little one about Bottoms because this movie is NOT getting as much publicity as it should. It's not meant to be a review or a video essay or whatever. I just really liked the movie.

    I must be the target audience for this movie because for over a month before it dropped, I couldn't open YT without getting a Bottoms preview playing as an ad 😂 This movie was so fun and well done! I enjoyed the little callbacks to other movies like But I'm a Cheerleader. If you enjoyed this movie, I suggest Emma Seligman's other movie Shiva Baby that also stars Rachel Sennott. I also really enjoyed Theater Camp which Ayo Adebiri has a role in. Both were great movies as well.

    In a lot of ways, the movie feels like an updated Strangers with Candy, the show from the early 2000s with Amy Sedaris and Steven Colbert. And while the humor of that show is very of its time (that ironic racism, ableism, sexism that was very popular) it had an absurdist bent in its humor that is updated, elevated and executed so well in Bottoms. Actively encourage it, will be watching again, always look in the background for even more gags. Just a packed comedy that, as you put it, knows what it wants to be and then is that.

    This movie is such a validating example of how queer main characters can do queer things and have that be ‘the whole point of the movie,’ but still be universally relatable, entertaining, and appeal to a wide audience. When I was growing up, queer people were starving for any kind of positive representation in media. I had members of my own family telling me ‘idc if there are queer characters in movies but being queer can’t be the whole point that’s just annoying.’ While I was desperate to see queer characters being queer onscreen. This movie does that. And it’s fantastic. I think it’s an instant mainstream classic comedy. And it’s so nice to finally be able to talk to my straight friends and coworkers about a queer film we both saw and enjoyed independently.

      From my understanding, the movie didn't receive huge promotions due to the writers' strike. So it makes sense that some people only heard about it due to their favourite actor being in it. Similarly, for many others, they heard about it after they found out that these actresses were in it : Ayo Edebiri (Emmy nominee + did tones of other projects this year alone, for example, The Bear) , Rachel Sennott (was the protagonist in the acclaimed movie "Shiva Baby") as well as Ruby Cruz (who was in the Disney+ show "Willow"). For them, Bottoms is how they found out who "Nicholas" is.
