The number of times you called Ballister either “barrister” or “banister” is hilarious, please don’t change it 🥰

Fun Fact: The credits for the film has an entire section dedicated to everyone that has worked at Blue Sky, complete with Nimona shapeshifting into a squirrel. A bittersweet, but great note to end on. I'm glad they got the last laugh against Disney.

First of all, it's just such a freaking miracle that this movie even exists. With Netflix background of just not giving a f*ck about animation, and SO many promising animated projects being cancelled either before release or half way already out. This feels like a movie I would have had to go to an alternate reality where animation is not the most disrespected media out there in order to watch it. And just have oh so many good things to say about it. First of all, yes, of course, the gay that is very present throughout the movie and it's not ambiguous nor "open to interpretation" And there are so many deep lines from this movie that have such a meaningful message. Like when Ballister said to Nimona "it would be easier if you were human" and she responds with "easier for who?" And that other incredibly powerful line where Nimona says "If I don't shapeshift I wouldn't die, but I wouldn't be living" because yes, if you think about it, there would have been no conflict at all if Nimona had never shapeshifted at all and it would have been "easier if she just stayed human" but that's exactly the point, it would have been easier, but for who? For her? Or for everybody else around her who are not willing to accept her for who she is and just need to force her to be like the rest of them. It would have been easier, but not for her, she wouldn't be herself and as she said, she wouldn't actually be living.

Honestly, if this movie ever got more, I'd love a prequel! I think learning more about Nemona and Gloreth's relationship and how they both move on after the initial village confrontation would be a really interesting story! Learning more about Nemona's past and her insecurities, watching the village slowly grow into a prosperous yet hateful place, and seeing the biases laid out in the original movie continue to gain development and focus would really improve the IP in my opinion.

Honestly, I think the “out of date” jokes fit very well within the context of the characters

Honestly, it was refreshing to see a story where LGBTQ+ characters can be on screen prominently and have actual character traits outside of it, as most modern media is guilty of doing. Add in that the movie is a comedic riot, and it's an easy contender for the best movie of this year.

IMO, this movie is the exact kind of queer rep I want to see in media. Identifiable LGBT characters whose identities are clearly visible, but don't take over the story.

Yeah it was really nice seeing goldenloin and ballister. Personally I think that the queer rep is the focus of the story though with Nimona being canonically nonbinary and genderfluid.

My expectations weren’t that high I will be honest but it met my expectations and went beyond them.

Well it's not that he's the "top non-royal knight" it's that he's the second best or maybe the best knight they were training, and the first ever non-*noble* to be a knight.

I'd argue he WAS the best. He managed to survive on the run without being arrested for however many days until Nimona found him, built himself a whole mechanical arm from scraps with his _non-dominant hand,_ and is incredibly skilled in combat; there's that one scene where they're fighting on top of the institute after Ballister tried showing Ambrosius the video from the squire, for example. The moment that stood out for me from there is that Ballister throws armadillo-Nimona at a knight, hitting him square in the crotch, jumping him while he's doubled over from pain, using the shield _still attached to the knight's arm_ to defend himself from a few blaster shots, and only then headbutting the knight to take him out fully before being picked up by Nimona as they jump off the institute building. It all happens in the span of about 5 seconds, and the action flows so well from one moment to the other that on a first watch you might barely realise what happened before it's over.

Honestly I just wish this movie had a shot at the movie theatres! This is a really great movie, and one I wish for more people to see! I sadly have a feeling that despite its success, being a streaming exclusive harms any projects longevity and ability to reach new audiences, and just gets caught in the pile of content out of sight, away from people who might otherwise have checked it out. Especially now more than ever with every company trying to gain a share of the Netflix streaming pie and prices going up and up!

i just fucking love the direction (some) animated films are going in, becoming more stylised and unique, having identities. keep up the great content, and stay cool 😎

As a fan of the original graphic novel, I really love this movie so much. I feel connected to both nimona and ballister because I’m an outcast.

This film was a blast, I'm glad I saw it, Mimona is perhaps the most creative animated feature I've seen in a while. I'm rather glad Netflix resuscitated Nimona, it's too good for Disney, the same studio that gave the Owl House the boot, because it "Didn't fit the brand", Netflix had been on a winning streak, I was impressed with Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, so I feel Netflix has a future in animated films. I also found it amusing for a new film, Mimona was a time capsule for the mid 2010s, while paradoxically, being quite modern and contemporary, in conclusion, Mimona is worth the watch, it's a very fun film.

This movie was so powerful and moving. I'm so glad it beat the odds and got to see the light of day despite Disney's cowardice. The LGBTQ+ community needs stories like these now more than an ever, and it was so nice to feel seen and heard by this film.

I just saw this, and my god....that ending. The film went in a direction I was NOT prepared for. I was BAWLING. I've dealt with those thoughts. I've felt so, so alone. For Blue Sky to create such a masterpiece, I just....thank you. Thank you.

Very good movie, and extremely enjoyable. I also like how we never find out what Nimona is because in the grand scale of things, it doesn't matter. She's Nimona.

I can only imagine how bad Nimona could have been if disney made it

the style of this movie kinda reminds me of those mods for pokemon games on the 3ds that remove the outlines. It just kinda has that astatic

Hm, fair and valid points and opinions, while I realize what you mean, personally I would like to see a Sequel, specifically one that have us learn more about Gloreth and what Nimona feels about her nowadays, but we’ll have to see about that I guess. I am fine either way.

I kinda like the simplicity of the story. The story is very simple, and you can kinda guess the main villain of the movie from the very beginning, however because it is so simple, it allows it to kinda drift into the background and let the character relationships take forefront. The simple story allowed its audience to understand and think about the messages it wants to say, rather than being too concerned about the plot.

I saw it today because Netflix Uploaded the entire Movie free to watch on their KZread Channel. I absolutely loved it.

I saw this movie thrice when it first released and a few more times afterwards. DEFINITELY gonna check out the Graphic Novel it's based off of

My opinion, this couple in Nimona is a good depiction of how relationships should be seen. They're fantastic

Cause with all issues in life there are two sides of a story and many more nuances that average people choose to ignore.

Not forcing the idea to the audience at all. Where we can interpret it the way we all perceive it in our own little way.

As far as the Director saw it, the queen allowing Ballister, someone from a non-noble (non-Gloreth-approved) background, to become a knight was a direct attack on the city's way of life and values, and then the queen intended to open up the knights to even more commoners aside from him. That was unforgivable to the Director. Framing him for the murder would prevent more commoners from being trusted as knights. Plus, she got more power for herself this way.

At first I thought the movie is good for my taste and it’s not because it has LGTBQ+ in it because I thought it be one of those movies. Once I watched it again, it turns out pretty decent. I like the style of the animation and and the cyberpunk fantasy got a nice touch. My favorite characters are obviously ballister and nimona (mostly nimona) because these two have a heart felt relationship between a father and daughter. There are few complaints about this movie is making the director be the obvious antagonist and Gloreth as well. I didn’t read the graphic novel, but when she and nimona were kids it’s kinda weird that gloreth suddenly changed her mind even though she’s aware that nimona has powers. It would’ve played out differently if this was an accident and gloreth’s parents thought nimona tried to attack her or something. Either way, the film is good and unique, and perhaps better film than the ones I watched so far.

Maybe they kept the outdated references like a dab to represent the outdated ideology?

it's ballister, not barrister

Say that was so 2015 is so 2015.

That's interesting... Disney WANTS and REALLY WANTS a franchise that supports good representation of the LGBTQIA+ audience, and it SIMPLY can't. Maybe Maybe it's the uninspired writing's fault from your professionals. Nimona shows that it's perfectly possible to balance an interesting story with a good message. The film is a great entertainment, in addition to containing great messages for viewers.
