I mean, to my eyes there was plenty of Black characters and Black culture on screen, even if the protagonist spends a lot of the movie as an abstract blue figure or a cat. (I'd say Angela Basset as a jazz saxophonist provides enough for a movie and a half, but again, that may just be me.)
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

Hec, is Matilda watching the second season of The Promised Neverland?
Absolutely! Well, not yet because we're having trouble with our Roku but yes, she's been eagerly awaiting it.

First episode kicked ass.
She might enjoy Jujutsu Kaisen. The anime is extremely good. It’s got a cinnamon bun protagonist. And the manga circulation went up 235% after the anime premiered!
I’m looking forward to Season 2 of Beastars but it’s only streaming in Japan. We won’t get it until July.

And the upcoming City of Ghosts by Elizabeth Ito is also looking good.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Those both look cool in very different ways.

Matilda's first comment was, "They better do Zuko's mother!!!"
