In the original webcomic, Nimona is a queer anarchist revolutionary who adopts the brown-skinned, disabled Boldheart as her master. Nimona embraces queer coding and turns it into a subversive power fantasy.
Nimona understands that villains are often made villainous for their bodies and identities. Like its source material, Nimona is a legend for the freaks and the queers, a story told in figures, archetypes and tropes. You know that joke about how we would all side with the queer-coded villains of our childhood? ND Stevenson’s now decade-old webcomic-turned-graphic-novel Nimona is a commitment to that bit. Stars: Chloë Grace Moretz, Riz Ahmed, Eugene Lee Yang, Frances Conroy, Lorraine Toussaint, Beck Bennett, Indya Moore, RuPaul, Julio Torres, Sarah Sherman Here are 15 of the biggest new kids movies from the last few months:
We’re keeping a running list of the latest movies for children for you to peruse and find something that the whole family might enjoy. I was always so thankful for those rare family films made with the same kind of care that went into the latest arthouse flick.
And I also remember feeling like studios took advantage of that desperation for entertainment, filling the latest unoriginal script with enough silly gags that the little ones would giggle as the parents checked the time. As the father of three young adults, I remember clearly those days when we’d watch just about any new kids movie that was released.
