Eduardo Sanchez-Ubanell offers the satirical short, “What if
‘IT’ Was Gay”, with Max Emerson, Michael Henry, Tony Directs and Ruba Wilson.
The short film is a satirical skit based on the Clarabelle-looking
character from Stephen King’s 1986 novel, made into a miniseries in 1990 and a
film in 2017.
If you listen to the dialogue (like “IT’s” lines at around
1:05) you wonder if there is some satire of the Maza-Crowder-gate and Voxadpocalypse. Ubanell’s films and videos seem non-political
(usually about cis male gay life), until you look at the jabs behind the lines
(he made fun of Buzzfeed in an earlier film by posing as a prize-fighter). This little film seems to want to poke fun at
how silly everyone has been recently.
I’m also reminded of baseball player Bryce Harper’s meme “clown
questions”.
