Complementing my text above, Netflix bet on the Asian boys love rhetoric and reaped success.

Very few people want to see these movies. They aren't interested. You can't force people to go watch them. Get over it.
yea, but plenty of movies fail a year, you only care about the ones with gay characters, thats weird.

I cannot think of a Disney movie made in the last 20 years where the main character was a kind and intelligent boy portrayed as the honorable hero.

Scapegoats, idiots, butt of jokes, spoiled, etc., all those boxes have been checked. But honorable hero? Nope.

I can't even figure out who the audience for Disney is anymore. Woke girls? I have no idea.
You know Disney owns Marvel right ???? The entire MCU of honorable male heroes is Disney films LOL

so are all those Pixar and Star Wars heroes by the way.

And they put a quick lesbian kiss at the end of one of the Star Wars movies, and they are really jerking around with the female empowerment stuff with the comic book characters (I can’t keep up with which characters are with which franchise). They are turning tradition on its head. Newsflash: Men and women coupling up are what keep the species alive. Why are we looking to deviate so far from that?

Um....

This thread is about a gay movie tanking.

If you want to talk about the rest of the tanking movies, go start a 'movies with [whatever in it] that tanked' thread.

So what you are saying is that none of these are mainstream.

Which was my point.

Thanks for the agreement.

It seems like you are trying to push a gay film down everybody's throats. Why the need to incessantly cry about such things? The world isn't going to change back to how it was in order to accommodate bigotry.

How is it bigotry if a gay movies bomb at the box office?

Of course they are going to bomb. There isn't main stream audience for it, although they do well as indie film releases.

The above is an objective statement. Not sure why everyone is mad at facts and stats of demo groups, but whatever. Go flail at open doors, and cry that more gay movies are bombing when intentionally released to audience that will never go see them.

This is the second time Disney has tried to sneak innocence-shattering homosexual material into a children’s movie.

America is getting tired of the unbearable wokeness of Disney, and to prove it, this movie is scoring lower than any Disney film in the last 30+ years. And since boys generally don’t care for romance stories, much less gay ones, this looks like another obvious case of “get woke, go broke.”

Hot on the heals of Lightyear - there seems to be a pattern emerging.

Disney can go bust and just disappear as far as I am concerned.
