Topics covered include the \u201cBrimley COCOON Line,\u201d the film as a trans allegory, and dogs getting their faces peeled back like bananas.\n\nCheckout Emily\u2019s podcast What to Watch on the Vox Quick Hits feed or the scripted series Arden!\n\nJoin our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.\nFollow us @blankcheckpod on\xa0Instagram,\xa0Threads,\xa0Facebook\xa0and\xa0X!\nBuy some real nerdy merch.\nConnect with other Blankies on our\xa0Reddit\xa0or\xa0Discord\nFor anything else, check out\xa0BlankCheckPod.com\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
