Of course they helped. it sounds like you might’ve worked at Disney world, and not so much the studio….which would be completely irrelevant…meaning you don’t know what you’re talking about. Yes you're correct. I wasn't aware, as someone already pointed out, that inclusiveness varies between the parks division and movie division. You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love.

You’ve said you don’t care about the representation, you don’t have experience with them, and you haven’t brought any actual facts to the thread other than negativity. They’re a massive global cash cow…it’s hard to take anything they say or do seriously for most people. You have to accept that. Most people with your take on “wokeness” would run to make this thread, so… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the same thing at all and we shouldn't have to settle for crumbs anymore. Oh Lord. They same people that are like "why is coming out such a big deal" are the ones complaining about "queer coding." Queer people can't just be queer in movies, they have to have a queer storyline or it's queer coding. It doesn't make sense. Sheev Palpatine or Yoda don't have any kind of sexual orientation in Star Wars. Does that mean they are is straight coding? Is every character whose sexual orientation that doesn't have anything to do with the plot supposed to be played straight for you to be happy?

It’s an easy way for the studio to check off their diversity box without any real risk. I think that you know this and you’re playing dumb, actually. I just don’t get why. Representation is only a good thing. Nothing wrong with wanting it and vocalizing that. 9 hours ago, JusKeepBreathin said: Is every character whose sexual orientation that doesn't have anything to do with the plot supposed to be played straight for you to be happy? Of course not. But some actual explicitly clear and straightforward representation would be nice as well, don’t you think? Yeesh. 9 hours ago, JusKeepBreathin said: Oh Lord.

Eido 3,585 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Representation is essential for the newer generations While older generations might still see the LGBTQ community as "unnatural" or something like that If kids see all kinds of love and a fair representation of LGBTQ people on TV shows and movies Then it would reduce homophobia by a lot in the coming years. This is the power that Disney holds and they choose not to use it for money. Period. This is then hypocritical of them to say "oh happy pride we love everybody" while it's just for one month and then they'll go back to their b* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that movie made 500 million in the US alone. In the movie Onward there is a lesbian cop that mentions her girlfriends child. Pixar Disney short film on Disney+ Watch it it's super cute unless you hate Disney for some ridiculous reason.

"Love, Victor", "Love, Simon", love nothing imo, those movies are crap. Give me compelling characters whose personality extends beyond their affinity for the same sex then we'll talk. Until Disney can write a good story with a proper lead or even supporting character that just happens to be queer instead of only being queer, I'm not interested in what they're selling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
