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.

Mischief, mayhem, and the perfect soundtrack for disaster. This movie is filled with the footage that was deemed unfit for Fall Out Boy's "My Heart Will Always Be The B-Side To My Tongue" and goes way beyond the original DVD to give you a closer look at the band's inner circle. Includes footage on everything from the early years to backstage antics, reckless stunts, and live footage of "Armor For Sleep", "Gym Class Heroes", and many more. Also contains clips from Fall Out Boy in Japan, their summer tour, and the near riot during their Detroit Warped Tour performance in 2004.
