I did some thinking about it, and I realized that the new Velma show gave Daphne the Lucy Westenra treatment. In which the makers of a modern adaptation of a pop cultural horror franchise saw a female character who was hyperfeminine and loves fashion and romance and decided that that must mean she's a shallow slutty mean girl while also ignoring literally all other aspects of her original character.

Yes, most of my posts lately are about either The Nun, or Warrior Nun. Someone may ask, what's with you and nuns? I then must say, it's not about nuns, not really, it's about devils. And nuns running away with devils. It's always lovely to see a holy heart grow horns. Or, an angel embrace a demon.
And, it's about beautiful women. Look at the leads in Warrior Nun, and in Conjurverse. It's always about beautiful women. And devils...

idk if you care about the Academia views on horror but for a long time there was the idea pushed by second wave feminists that horror was and will always be inherently reactionary and misogynistic because the act of viewing could only be enjoyed by a sadistic male viewer who liked to watch men suffer. but in the 90s that view began being disputed by people like eve kosofsky sedgwick who pointed out how essentialist and flat that view was and horror studies has bloomed since then to include the queer viewer (benshoff 1997, “monsters in the closet”) and expand beyond the simplistic view that horror is inherently bad and “low art” because of its violence. so basically this is all to say that anon is stuck in 1990
fuck yeah. that's really interesting
