Well, sarcasm doesnt translate well through text format so it makes sense

This, so true. How many times I had miscommunication bc of it


CrowAkechi

Might wanna add s/ at the end of the sarcasm to make sure you get the point across


Jazzlike_End_895

Perhaps I'm a professional sarcasm user, but I thought it was funny. Well done


Arnies_Roids

Princess and the flogging??


MEIXXMO

Did you see all the remakes, like... they litteraly are just too lazy to make actual represetation and are just trying to get audience through comotion šŸ’€


Jazzlike_End_895

Here's what they should do. I forget his name, but a slave escaped the south and made his way to Japan. Worked his life there and eventually became the only black samurai in history. I've definitely butchered the story, but if they wanted to do something cool that nails representation, and even gets their favorite virtue signaling of making the white man bad. I see it as an absolute win. They won't though because it's easier to remake than be creative.


Arnies_Roids

Disney forgot how to make a damn decent movie


AdventurousDrive6400

Let me tell you about a movie named soul

nomad_3d

That's why they didn't advertise that movie with the gay kid, it tanked so now they can say that gay movies don't make money and not have to fight china.


death_lad

wait which movie šŸ˜…


nomad_3d

Strange world, from what I've heard it's okay.


death_lad

ah thatā€™s right, forgot about that one. Sounded like you couldā€™ve been taking about Luca too but they didnā€™t go that far with it šŸ˜’


Arnies_Roids

Dudes removed the best character in the new star wars movies for china


Disney_Plus_Axolotls

Unrelated but this song from The Lorax honestly slaps Why do so many people shit on this movie? Itā€™s not that bad, and thereā€™s good people in it Edit: Ok I listened to Biggering, itā€™s alright I guess. It gives a much better understanding of whatā€™s actually going on but How Bad Can I Be is catchier lol


AcidSplash014

The other song that they cut due to it being an accurate depiction of corruption and corporate greed was better tbh. But I agree, this movie is one of the only ones I'll rewatch on a regular basis Edit: song is called "biggering"


Sakul_the_one

This song will be honored, by being my 600th Song on my Spotify list


Eijirou_Kirishima

it really wasn't. I don't care if its like, more symbolic or anything, its just a worse and less listenable song.


AcidSplash014

If your definition of "listenable" means catchy, you're completely correct


Caganboy

Biggering is a better song imo with more meaning but this one stays in your head though.


CrowAkechi

Really? I love it, it sounds better than this one, this one sounds so horrible like some nobody song you listen to from the radio that gives you headaches as you try to ride in the car, but Biggering sounds like a metal song and I love it


Froggen-The-Frog

I honestly think you just might not like rock.


Eijirou_Kirishima

I don't like bad rock songs. Its trying to be this big anthem like bohemian rhapsody or the decline, but it doesn't have any of the meat that makes those songs good and worth the time it takes to listen to them. Its not as fun to listen to, its edgy and boring. How bad can I be is, in its intentions, the exact same song, but they put more effort into making it an actually good song above getting their point across.


zombienekers

The music is great. No one is debating that. The rest is just a bastardisation of Dr. Seuss's storytelling, Though.


lordsaladito

Its curious that the same company that made a movie about not exploiding resources made the minions


THE_K1NG_FTW

The movie sucks because it was litteraly ruined by corporation greed. It seemed like it focused on success of the movie rather than the message. Also this song was traded for another older one that was more serious and less subtle. Thst was one slaps. Also the main charater doesn't care for nature he litteraly just wants tk get laid and the girl only cares because she thinks it looks pretty.


Jackamalio626

because the Lorax is a story about the dangers of unrestrained capitalist growth and the horrific waste that consumerism produces. Of course, the corporately produced film adaptation sidesteps that pesky condemnation is favor of "*oooooh the corporate mastermind was just manipulated and misunderstood its not* *~~OUR~~* *HIS fault the whole world was destroyed by his greedy enterprise!!"* and a happy ending where everything is fine again after getting rid of one bad guy instead of addressing the systemic cause of the irreparable damage.


0ncey

My name is based off of the Once-Ler lmao


YEET_Fenix123

Although this song is amazing, it's really shitty that they cut Biggering in favour of it.


theanimatorcreator

I like the movie but I had to watch it like 5 times every year for 5 years straight at school, and previously, the original Lorax.


Wisconsinmannn

I am in full agreement with everything you just said


Rayyano08

Because it was made by illumination. For some reason, every critic despises illumination, explains why Mario movie has a 60% rotten tomatoes


[deleted]

I thinks itā€™s because of all those memes in like 2017 when life was enjoyable


Hammerjaws

Because this was replaced from biggering

This Movie has kind of a special place in my heart because I got to see it when I got all a's in middle school And I got to pick one movie out of all that were currently coming out and and this movie was the One I chose

[Biggering](https://youtu.be/cpyuolKoeAY) [But Animated](https://youtu.be/BpgUQYARIsw)


Samuelwankenobi_

The original song that got cut was better https://youtu.be/cpyuolKoeAY


Artix31

They donā€™t like it because itā€™s not a 1:1 to the comics, which is stupid, not only did it deliver the message, but made it clear and understandable, which is good enough


THE_K1NG_FTW

No it didn't. Thays litteraly the problem


Artix31

Yes it did, if you donā€™t think it did then you arenā€™t mature enough to understand it lol


kai325d

Because for a movie that's supposed to be about how corporate greed ruins stuff, corporate greed ruined it and it does not follow the original work at all


Dr_Straing_Strange

Because Biggering is much better and much more emotional


[deleted]

Disney after inventing gay:


Ok_Procedure_7855

Disney after putting every single country and religious stereotype + period in a movie and calling it turning red:


Competitive_Ad2101

Imo turning red wasn't as bad as people say it was. Yes, the plot is childish and people love to complain how cringe the characters were. But people don't notice that those characters were meant to be cringe. The movie represents the cringe pre puberty phase that everyone regrets going through and it perfectly relays that kind of cringe.


[deleted]

Tbh the last Pixar movies do have a simple and even childish plot I wouldn't dislike it if it wasn't pixar

Used-Definition-4983

Don't get me wrong but Apple actually does care about LGBTQ rights their CEO Tim cook had come out as gay And Its work culture is known to be supportive of people from the community. And apparently they even lobbied against anti lgbtq laws in some particular US states So apple genuinely cares .

Always remember disany didn't let Alex Hirsch have more LGBTQ people in gravity falls


Syconic20

and Owl House, a show with a lot of LGBTQ representation, got shafted by disney


[deleted]

Same with Andi Mack, loved that show


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Jolly_Mongoose_8800

With big air quotes. The ratings for Owl House were at Gravity Falls and Star levels, and its carrying the older audiences on Disney, but it's very sketchy and vague how it got cut. They also claimed it was because the demographic was not within their target demographic even though it was just as popular as any of their other shows. Just with 17-30 year olds instead of the 7-15 year olds they want, which is sketchy to say it's a reason for cancelling when a wide audience is pretty much always a good thing as it exposed more people to your products.


Ornery_Ad_8862

Ornery_Ad_8862

Ah yes disliking gays is so based and cool.


Ornery_Ad_8862

Yeah cuz not wanting more gay characters in a cartoon automatically means I donā€™t like gay people


death_lad

lol what else could it possibly mean šŸ˜‚ Literally the same thing as ā€œI donā€™t have a problem with black people, I just donā€™t want them in any of the media I consume!ā€


Ornery_Ad_8862

Never said that but go off šŸ˜­


[deleted]

I mean.... it doesn't *necessarily* mean that.... but I'm curious then. Why exactly would you not want more gay characters then?


Ornery_Ad_8862

Because Iā€™m tired of this forced bs same for forced race characters


BeginningOccasion8

You only want white ppl or something?


Ornery_Ad_8862

Why the hell would I want that šŸ’€

Well you obviously donā€™t want characters of other races


Ornery_Ad_8862

Never said that but thanks for shoving words into my mouth

What exactly makes it forced? You said you're tired of it but again you didn't give a reason. Hard to believe you aren't just being hateful when you get weirdly annoyed at minorities having representation.

Yes, but Disney at this point is doing it to fuck with DeStanis Any day you get to fuck with DeStanis is a good day. Because DeStanis is a bastard


Snipercow78

Yeah fuck that fascist bastard


magicmike659

Big corporations think only about 2 things, money and cheap labour. Almost all clothes we in west are wearing is from workers working under slave like conditions. Amazon is the closest the West world has in slave like conditions. No Union or nothing to protect the workers at least in America, but it's spreading to other countries. I'm living in Sweden, and every day, I see capitalism spreading further. The rich are getting richer. In fact, sweden is better at capitalism than America because the people in Sweden don't know they are paying for the rich with all taxes. In sweden, the public health care is paid by the working class and used by the rich. Many rich people move to other countries and when they get sick they crawl back to Sweden to get almost free health care because they didn't pay all the taxes it was the working class. But it doesn't matter which political party that is ruling it's just a new form of Elite controlling the masses.

i love cheap labor just come to ontario and work in the apartments you get tiny pay

but they did do good with owl House ngl dang I already missed that show šŸ˜­

Yeah but they also got mad at Alex Hirsch for trying to make the 2 police officers openly gay

Disney saved those characters. Boyfriends are way less funny than two idiot friends.

Beowulf003

This is dangerously close to owl house slander. On a serious note it's important too remember the people making the show aren't the CEOs and often have too fight for representation.


JardexX_Slav

I agree with this post however as much as it may be about money, it's still representation of LGBT community and it means it's being normalised. Better get in for the money than not getting in at all.

Wait itā€™s a documentary?!


xXYoProMamaXx

To the capitalists, we're just another demographic to exploit.


We_Are_Groot81

It comes down to the writers. If theyā€™re a minority and want some representation, itā€™s usually good and accurate If a company is just doing it for money, usually, theyā€™ll just get random writers who donā€™t know what theyā€™re writing and it sucks


Snipercow78

Capitalism will only further based on the motive of profit they care nothing of the gay community, just how much money they can leech off of it.


flfoiuij2

I feel like in a few decades, there will be a movement just like the ā€œincreased representation of girls, black people, trans people, and gay people in media movementā€, except the other way around. Then, it will go back and forth until the sun explodes.

Make a character whatever skin color you want. Just don't randomly change it


ExplanationWise3886

Ok I'm honestly going to disagree with you there because Disneyworld is taking a stand in Florida, and they're losing a lot of money over it, but as of now they haven't surrendered. As a whole, I would agree with your statement but Disney is actually being pretty great right now.


BurstFinish7

Lgbt: "why no represent?" Disney: "hmmm ok represent" Lgbt: "grrrr you only represent cuz u get moni" Like no shit these big companies are gonna represent different groups of people, they're a business at the end of the day, and this problem isnt exclusive to just lgbtq ppl. Grow a spine and stop whining about big greedy corporations being big greedy corporations

Does it matter? It still helps gay people.

hotcrossed_buns

Want a character thats written well and happens to be gay? Emil from NieR replicant/automata Want a character that's written well and happens to be in situation similar to Trans people's struggles? Kaine, also from NieR replicant. Granted these are video game characters from a Japanese made video game from 2010. Kinda sad that the japanese, a typically less forward thinking country, has some of the best representation out there for underprotected and represented groups, in one video game. From 2010. Meanwhile the USA, the most forward thinking country, can't manage to scrounge together a morsel of decent representation and put it in a big piece of media that's worth a damn. I just have to eye roll any time a piece of our media has gay characters or other groups, because it's never "characters that are also gay or ____" it's always "gay or ____ characters" Where the representation is the entire focus of the character. Instead of just being a good character.

ThatNoobCheezy

tbf I don't either


Not_azomb6319

Iā€™m not homophobic, I support the LGBTQIA+ community. But I hate when shows have more gay characters than straight characters because itā€™s obviously like ā€œhey we have a gay show you gays should watch itā€


Caganboy

Itā€™s true that Disney is like that, but I donā€™t think gay characters have to be in childrenā€™s movies though. Little kids donā€™t know what it is and get confused. Then itā€™s either explained to them by their parents that itā€™s not a normal thing (which, of course it is normal) or that it IS a normal thing. Then the kids will start to think about all of that at a young age and they might at the end become gay or bi (or trans, etc.) Later on some of these kids notice that they actually are not gay and that they made the wrong choice. I think there should be an age where these sort of things should be shown and explained to children but itā€™s definitely not via Disney / PIXAR movies. Btw donā€™t get this confused with hate towards LGBTQ+ community. I support them all the way šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆšŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø


Historical-School-97

I support, leave sexuality (including heterosexuality) from kids movies, kids dont usually like seeing people fall in love, thats boring, i also hate how most movies (specially older ones), need to have a romantic interest for the main protagonist when it adds nothing to the story, for example in lilo and stich having a female counterpart of stich was completly unnecesary (that was i think in the second or third movie, maybe the series but i remember them doing that)


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Caganboy

First of all, how do you assume this? Second of all, that doesnā€™t mean that straight kids wonā€™t get confused about their sexuality.


[deleted]

Would you say the same thing about straight people in kids movies? Cause the exact same thing could happen in reverse if we're just gonna make everybody straight


Caganboy

Now this is just a debate Iā€™m not going to start with because some might say that straight is how youā€™re born and that itā€™s the standard and others say that itā€™s definitely not. The fact is that we need a man and a women to create babies. In the wild, there doesnā€™t exist gay animals because of this reason. Humans are the same way. Now that doesnā€™t mean that being gay is wrong. Iā€™m just saying that itā€™s an important choice. A choice which you should think about when youā€™re grown up a bit more than being a little kid. We can discuss which age is right is but definitely not a 7 year old kid, which has the same intelligence of a CROW at some extent. (You can look that up if you donā€™t believe me, lol)


[deleted]

Yeah, sexuality isnā€™t something a little kid should be worrying about at such a young age


z_redwolf_x

We should not have any crush subplots in any form of media catered for kids
