Pansy says some clever things, but every word is soaked with anger and pain.

It didn&#8217;t trigger the crazy gut laughs like when I saw it the first time, but I re-watched by myself on my computer instead of in a crowded theater so that&#8217;s not surprising. I wish I could show it to my classes so they can see that great movies don&#8217;t require huge budgets, but it&#8217;s just a little too racy for me to risk playing it for middle schoolers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This movie doesn&#8217;t need me to make a spoof poster for it- there are some great ones out there. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/hundredsofbeavers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Seriously, look at the official Instagram feed. <\/a> But I have a mission and I&#8217;m sticking with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hundreds-of-Beavers-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hundreds-of-Beavers-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hundreds-of-Beavers-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hundreds-of-Beavers-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Hundreds-of-Beavers-1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Every alternate poster I found online is better than this one.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I dare you to write fanfic where these movies cross over.
