Trans Allegories in Film: 'Robots' (2005)
Animation as a medium of storytelling can be thought to be open to all ages and as I hope my readings will reveal, they could be interpreted as transgender stories.
Brothers
During their one-year prison sentence, Chop and Yai made up their minds to turn over a new leaf for the sake of their families, unlike Ying who declared he would return to a life of crime. The three went their separate ways. Chop returned home to find his family’s situation deteriorating. His mother had fallen ill, his younger brother Chai was a struggling scriptwriter with no sales, and his sister Chatcharee, who worked at a bar, had become the target of the bar owner, Damrongrit.

'Mortal Kombat' Won't Win Any Awards, but it's a Bloody Good Time
In addition to the cast being delightfully diverse this time around, the film was just loosely-plotted and action-packed enough to keep a casual fan like myself entertained. While I do agree that the writing of Cole left much to be desired for an original character thrust into a preconceived universe, none of the characters seemed particularly fleshed out in terms of personality; however, I think that's to be expected when you're watching a film literally inspired by a video game.
‘Vacation Friends’ is Funny yet Forgettable
In a film where a Black couple is framed to be the lead characters, they still managed to get shuffled off to the sidelines. The enthusiastic cast delivers well on goofy bits- but can only go so far before they begin to fall flat.
