Yea I’m confused, the article seems to waver between it was confusing to good, but also it misses the point of why the writer likes pop tarts so it’s not good?
“That’s a nice feeling. *Unfrosted *isn’t about that feeling. It’s about the product […] It takes whatever pleasure that can be derived from a Pop-Tart, and chokes on it”
This movie exists because studios will fund projects that are connected to ip, and it’s ridiculous that pop-tarts counts.
The movie isn’t choosing to say anything. It is telling jokes to have fun and that’s as far as it’s willing to take it.
Now, does this make it a bad movie? That’s for you to decide. If all you want from a film is to be entertained with some jokes? It sounds like it’s good, but that’s not what the author is speaking to. The author is speaking to people that enjoy films that have points of view that they are expressing. If that isn’t you, that’s okay.
It’s… not good though. Which is REALLY striking b/c with that outstanding cast, it becomes really, REALLY noticeable. There should have been almost no way for this to bomb… but it did.
The whole show is just dedicated to loving conservative values - capitalism, shitting on women (ostensively ironically, but…), not paying or caring at all about your workers, or your customer base either, as in literally giving little children cancer and laughing about it (I am not even kidding, that was an actual part of the movie, from both sides), and they even had a whole scene depicting the White House riots, replete with a guy with no shirt and a horned helmet who took an actual dump on the property, and once again I am not kidding but it was violent, with one person falling to be injured after having climbed the wall, and others were climbing up multiple stories high on the outside of the building.
Oh, but now Seinfeld is blaming the “woke crowd” for not appreciating what he offered. As with any incel, the recipients thoughts don’t matter ofc, only his intentions, which he claims to be “pure”. A quote from the article:
According to Seinfeld himself, Unfrosted is merely an exercise in warm silliness, born from the bleak early days of the COVID-19 pandemic and a very long-gestating stand-up joke about how much joy the treat brought him as a kid.
Yeah, except it’s not though. It’s exactly like calling someone “sugar tits” while slapping them on the ass, then blaming them for “not getting the joke” - this was Boomerism at its finest, and the only reason I am glad to have seen it is b/c it helps me realize why there may be an actual, literal Civil War upcoming in the next election: b/c there are a LOT of people like him, who flat-out do not care one tiny bit about anyone but their own side.

The author is making 2 main points.
