So, The Born Loser is this quirky animated flick that dives into the misadventures of Brutus Thornapple, who really embodies that idea of being a perennial underdog. The animation style isn't groundbreaking, but there's a charm to the characters and their expressions—kind of rough around the edges, but it fits the mood perfectly. The pacing feels a bit off at times, but it captures the monotony of Brutus' life, which is kind of the point, right? Themes of failure and resilience come through strongly, and you can't help but feel for him, even though he keeps stumbling into trouble. It's distinctive in how it portrays life's little letdowns without sugarcoating things too much. Definitely worth chatting about with other collectors.
