They're a candy company, Halloween is a candy holiday, its saying that any kid can wear any costume they want for Halloween. Its a good message...

....now why they needed a goth nanny witch to get that across, i dunno...but she made me watch a 2 minute ad for twix so....there's that.

Some kid's supernatural caretaker used her powers to get rid of a bully. The only options I can see for discourse is "this endorses violence against children" and "this is a thinly veiled metaphor for the eradication of straight people by the queer community", both of which are brain-rottingly asinine.

The right getting upset about the boy wearing a princess dress is predictable, but I didn't even think about the fictional 'assault' with magic that might trigger Twitter warriors.

But the video would be lame if she just told him to go away, where if it were real life he'd just respond, "Go fuck yourself, lady!" So, yeah, blast the kid with magic. The End. :P

Lol wtf was that?

Terrible ad. How does it promote eating Twix?

Also if people... heck CHILDREN are mean to other kids, they should be murdered?

And the writing directing was awful.

You can be woke and funny and promote a product at the same time. Look at this:

That twix thing is a mess

I was expecting a short horror film, but there arent really any horror elements to this video. Its just a bunch of drawn-out nothingness and then she yeets a child bully into the air lmao, I burst out laughing.

And what message? If someone talks shit about your clothes, get your witch friend to murder them? I mean that commercial was just a convoluted mess lol, I get they were trying to make a pro-trans commercial and THAT is a good thing, but I cant stop laughing at how ridiculous the final product was.

Conservatives should have already been mad about Halloween, considering its roots in Paganism. Just another thing for them to whinge about.
