The World of Peter Rabbit and friends is my childhood and my special interest, so I was so excited to finally watch Peter Rabbit 2.

Here are some of the highlights:

Thomas is literally the best character. He's a bisexual disaster, infodumps about printing, loves his wife, loves his rabbit children. I could write an essay on how he is the perfect man. I want to marry both him and his wife and live in the country together with all the animals. That's the dream.

Since I love the original books so much, everytime I saw a returning character, I freaked out. Literally every five seconds I was like:

Peter rabbit walking through wet cement while a squirrel sings Boulevard of Broken Dreams? Cinematic masterpiece.

Protect the Tailor of Gloucester at all costs. Give him all the sausages.

I am still not over the filmmakers killing off Peter's mother. His father died in the original, but not her. Josephine was a queen. An icon.

Mrs Tiggywinkle does not fear death. Death fears Mrs Tiggywinkle.

Benjamin Bunny is totally ok with his cousin hooking up with an older man. But a criminal? Definitely not!

Jeremy Fisher is literally a king. Words cannot express the love I have for this frog. I would die for him.

Fun fact: In the original books, Flopsy and Benjamin get married and have babies together. They are cousins.

All the hidden references to the books!! Ginger and Pickles Shop! Piperton pets! The tailor of Gloucester! I love the little details!

Pigling Bland is still the distinguished gay he's been since 1913. All he needs now is his lesbian girlfriend Pig Wig so they can laugh and judge others together. Please. I miss her.

I'm still clinging onto the hope that Mr Bouncer will appear one day. Him and Tabitha Twitchett.

Speaking of Tabitha, does she know that two of her kittens are in a gang??

And Tom Kitten??? Why are you in a gang with Samuel Whiskers???? Remember when he literally tried to eat you???

Johnny Townmouse mentions having a wife and lots of babies. I guess his long distance relationship with Timmy Willie didn't work out. What a pity.

Those are all the thoughts I have for now. Knowing my obsession, I will probably make more lol.

So really sock it to me, but remember: I am wildly insecure.

PETER RABBIT 2: THE RUNAWAY (2021)

I think where Peter Rabbit 2 falls short is that the first one was, at it’s heart, a romantic comedy, which is where I feel Gluck’s strength as a director really lies. Gleeson + Bryne get shorter attention in the sequel because of this subplot with Peter and another character, but when they do have the focus of the movie it really shows.

Not to mention we have technically lost Thomas as the main villain - although he is in The Runaway as a supporting character, the new conflict can only be disinteresting in comparison to the perfectly hysterical Domhnall Gleeson.
