Oh well, On to Moana.

Unless I missed an informative presser there too?

Disney’s ‘queer’ Moana 2 star shares how she fights antisemitism, fascism, and misogyny

We will continue having this thread every time so people are reminded they should not see these movies

Because they said they’re accepting of gay people (one of the main actresses is also queer)? You’re going to have a really hard time watching any movie. It’s not like Hollywood is some conservative cult.

I guess I don’t get why this bothers some people so much. The actual movie is not gay. There are basically zero gay references in the entire show. But because on their press tour, when talking to a gay magazine, about a musical (which gays tend to love) you’re not going to see it?

Because she essentially claimed Trump is going to put them in camps by saying they aren’t safe like every other queer activist.

We need to smother this ideology and drive it out

Wife and daughter went see it. She has been to Broadway and seen the original. She said it wasn’t bad at all and pretty good. Nothing gay or twisted. I think we have reached the point where the actresses and actors are way more fricked up then the characters they play.

they show a clip of a gay scene in the interviews above. Gonna have a little activist on your hands

I told my wife that the movie will probably be great. Actors/Actresses don't look this fricked up and weird in interviews unless they sold their soul for the part they are playing and lost touch with reality outside of their character.

Its because they are closeted homos that are struggling with it and when stuff like this comes out it makes them wanna risk it all

Back in 1900, when the Wonderful Wizard of Oz was written, "queer" meant anything that was "strange" or "odd". Same as how "gay" used to mean "happy" until about the mid 20th century.

The pandering and ignorance during their interviews should be embarrassing for them. But yes, I'm sure the chickens are still 21st century gay.

Are we really to the point in this thread where people are arguing whether or not musicals should be gay?

Lord you had to hear this from them?
