Chocolate Underground

With the establishment of the Good For You Party's authoritarian regime, unhealthy foods and sugar have been banned. As a result, the bakery Smudger Moore's father owns is suffering financially from being unable to sell any of their typical sweet menu items. Smudger's friend Huntley Hunter is also frustrated by the prohibition, as he cannot keep a promise he made to his late father. Angered by the unjust world they live in, the two young boys set out to break the new social order—but the uphill battle they are faced with is a lot more than they bargained for.

Lmao the "boohoo my treats are more important than everyone's health and safety" types will always be the most pathetic brand of privileged person that think's they're oppressed. I wonder if they would make the same kind of show but about a poor widdle smol bean cocaine pusher being oppressed because he can't sell his addictive drugs to the people?

"LOOK PEOPLE LIKE MY ADDICTIVE UNHEALTHY SLOP, THEREFORE IT MUST BE GOOD!"

Also like, if you can't make your slop taste good without sugar than maybe you're a just shitty baker.

That may be a fairly hot take for some people here, but I could do a slightly cooler one with the treatbrains that simply must blast out high bass floor-rattling BWOOMBWOOMBWOOMS well after midnight. Unlike the sugar, it instantly becomes everyone's experience in a wide radius.

Pretty sure this was the plot of every other direct to video move in the 90s.

I remember during the Chapo podcast episode where they're reviewing Ready Player One movie and Amber is mentioning that it's an improvement over past movies because it has a slight increase in class consciousness by having the villain be a corporation over the concept of government regulation or whatever movies like it before would have had.
