4	Sofie Liv Pedersen is a video and text reviewer for the Website/AgonyBooth and host of the show 'Movie Dorkness', (formerly the 'Red Suitcase Adventures' and currently 'The Positive Gamer Woman'). Known for her thick Danish accent, passion for the theater, and love of ''Series/DoctorWho'', ''Literature/SherlockHolmes'', and the films of Creator/StudioGhibli. She conducts her show with a laid-back air and enthusiasm for her work and the subjects she reviews.

6	As of September 2014, Sofie has started a new segment on [[IndieGame Indie Games]] called "The Positive Gamer Woman." This came about due to her newfound interest in the Independent Games community (and Video Games in general), among other reasons.

11	----
12	!!''Movie Dorkness'' contains examples of:
13	* TheArtifact: The formerly titular 'Red Suitcase', so much so she re-branded the show as ''Movie Dorkness''
14	** ArtifactTitle: Now 'Movie Dorkness' seems to be going this route, too, with 'The Positive Gamer Woman' becoming the sole focus.
15	* CausticCritic: Averted most of the time. She's actually one of the most positive critics around unless the subject is REALLY bad. (I.E. ''{{Literature/Twilight}'')
16	* ConceptsAreCheap: Called out ''Film/ManOfSteel'' for its overuse of the word "hope."
17	* {{Cosplay}}: Has appeared as Franchise/WonderWoman, ComicBook/BlackCanary, and Sophie from ''Anime/HowlsMovingCastle'' on camera, and probably much more off-camera.
18	* CrossOver: Many, the most notable being her membership with a pseudo-superhero reviewer team with ''WebVideo/TheFilmRenegado'' and ''Mr. Mendo'' known as the ''"Agony Anarchists"'', her team up with [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] to look at ''Film/WonderWoman1974'', and with ''WebVideo/StuffYouLike'' doing 'First-Person' reviews of many Holmes adaptations in-character with Sofie as Holmes and Sursum Ursa as Watson.
19	* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "Danish Dane from Denmark"
20	* EntertaininglyWrong: In her [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video336_Twilight_2008_Movie_Review.aspx review]] of Twilight, [[WebVideos/MovieDorkness Sofie Liv]] came to the conclusion that Mr. Mendo was a [[Franchise/CareBears Care Bear]]. Which isn't [[TheBear that far off]].
21	* EvilTwin: Subverted: Sofie just had [[https://www.agonybooth.com/star-trek-mirror-mirror-universe-original-series-15399 PMS]].
22	* FunnyForeigner: Seen as this by many, mostly because of the accent, but she, ultimately, averts this.
23	* GamerChick: She has always played games (especially ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' and ''VideoGame/ProfessorLayton''), But she seems to be slowly turning into a full-fledged gamer girl, as evidenced by the inception of "The Positive Gamer Woman" and her review of ''VideoGame/NiNoKuni''.
24	* KindheartedCatLover: She has owned about Eight cats in her life, the latest being two kittens named Belle and Luna.
25	* LivingToys: Her plushie of Mr. Drippy came to life during her review of ''VideoGame/NiNoKuni'', voiced by {{WebVideo/Welshy}}.
26	* [[TheManyDeathsOfYou The Many]] [[{{Gorn}} Gory]] [[TheManyDeathsOfYou Deaths of You]] : Sofie's experience with ''{{VideoGame/Limbo}},'' and she loves it to death.
27	* TheMentor: Sofie sees Creator/HayaoMiyazaki as hers, even referring to him as 'Sensei' on occasion.
28	* ProudToBeAGeek: There is a reason why the show is called "Movie ''Dork''ness"
29	* RealSongThemeTune: 'The Office' from the film ''Film/{{Brazil}}'', during the 'Red Suitcase' era.
30	* RuleSixtyThree: The Literature/SherlockHolmes reviews.
31	* SelfDeprecation: Sofie's reaction to the developer of Limbo being Danish: "Well, that is just typical!" [[NotSoAboveItAll She even starts humming a tune about getting decapitated and using the corpses of children as stepping stones near the end.]]
32	* SharedUniverse: Because of the crossovers and cameos, she's part of the Reviewaverse.
33	* TakeThat: A [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video_shows/Mr_Mendos_Hack_Attack/Donnie_Darko.aspx review]] of ''Film/DonnieDarko'' notes that Donnie's argument about [[Franchise/TheSmurfs Smurfette]] is very much like a Administrivia/{{Natter}} reply on Website/TVTropes.
34	--> '''Mr. Mendo:''' (Regarding [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video312_Twilight_Saga_Eclipse.aspx Twilight: Eclipse]]) Creator/StephenieMeyer is a lonely, unfulfilled woman. I think we may have finally found the perfect girl for [[Webcomic/{{Sonichu}} Christian Chandler]]
35	--> '''Sofie:''' Oh, go read some Spider-Man comics, [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video323_Batman_Returns_1992.aspx you big baby!]]
36	* ValleyGirl: When Sofie reviewed the film of ''[[http://www.agonybooth.com/video458_Twilight_Saga_New_Moon_Rob_Pattinson_Kristen_Stewart.aspx New Moon]]'', a valley girl (played by Sofie in a long-haired wig) appeared to challenge Sofie's negative review of the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' series.
37	* WhosOnFirst [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video469_3_Dev_Adam_Turkish_Spider_Man_Captain_America_El_Santo.aspx Parodied]] with Mr. Mendo and WebVideo/TheFilmRenegado.
38	--> '''Sofie:''' I really can't recognize any of these people.
39	--> '''Renegado:''' It's not that hard.
40	--> '''Sofie:''' Look, all that I want to know is what is the name of the guy playing Captain America?
41	--> '''Mendo:''' What's playing Spider-Man.
42	--> '''Sofie:''' I'm not asking you who's playing Spider-Man.
43	--> '''Renegado:''' That's the guy playing Captain America.
44	--> '''Sofie:''' Who's playing Captain America?
45	--> '''Renegado:''' Who is playing Santo.
46	--> '''Sofie:''' I just want to know what's his name?
47	--> '''Mendo:''' What is the name of the guy playing Spider-Man.
48	--> '''Sofie:''' I'm still not asking you who's playing Spider-Man!
49	--> '''Renegado:''' Who is playing Santo.
50	--> '''Sofie:''' I don't know!
51	--> '''Mendo:''' He's Captain America.
