I'm just not into the gay stuff and prefer to spend my time on other things and raise my kid along those interests. I'm not firebombing the theaters,.back off,..lol. I am just not going.


Just release the movie and stop marketing its social justice agenda to earn woke points. Because if it fails you painted yourselves into a corner where your only defense Has to be bigotry.

So many movies come and go, but since they didn't go all in on some social marketing they don't feel the need to defend themselves by accusing half the population as bigots( or Anti-Cis) . They just made a bad movie that didn't appeal to enough people.
If we really cared about the success about a movie don't ya think we could go see it or at least buy some tickets and not go just to vote with our dollars. It's not a hard problem to solve.

I am actually surprised. Who would have through it is possible for a Disney animation that no one want to watch.

In the past, the Disney logo is good enough to draw in a big crowd. Time has change. Go woke go broke.

Disney Animation has not had a good year. The studio has followed disappointing box office for last summer’s “Toy Story” spinoff “Lightyear” with the big-screen bomb “Strange World” that is projected by analysts to cost the studio $100 million-plus as one of Disney’s biggest failures ever.

ouch. $100 million-plus loss gotta hurt especially after the disney box office failures of lightyear and west side story during the last 12 months.

The gay community is now going after the children. We're going backwards folks ,back into Sodom and Gomorrah when everyone and anyone accepted gayness and practiced it. It was fully accepted . This is how gays work. They are not satisfied with regular rights as a human being .They want to permeate all of society including young children even babies .They do not have any boundaries as to who they will bring into their fold.

There is no safe space for a kid to be a kid now, free from woke indoctrination. These are not little adults, they are impressionable children who are being manipulated via media.
I remember an article about a year ago. Many of the long time Disney employees were just disgusted how the trans and gay activists had taken over production of everything. There had to be a gay or trans theme.

Its just completely developmentally inappropriate.

Disney has a history of pushing the limits. Look up Fantasia.

The alphabet group are certainly demanding we accept them for how they feel and will sue anyone who doesn't 'feel' like making them a cake, or use their pronouns.

This simple point seems to be missed over and over and has been for decades. The creators of these films forget (or they never quite got) that in the end a good story is what folks are after, not "high concept".

I know a lot of guys who quit watching the NFL with the kneeling. They just want pure sports absent any politics/controversy of any kind beyond blind referees. I know enough parents who quit taking children to Disney films due to going from pure entertainment to politics and controversy. Not just the woke films but the others as well. They are just sick of it.

Entertainers are failing to understand they are losing a much larger share of the general audience by trying to grow one faction of their audience throught woke virtue signalling.

Disney needs to get new writers. Anything coming from them used to be good, really good with good storylines and plots that both kids and adults enjoyed.
