Kinda glad actually. I have nothing against gay people or anything but it is getting rly annoying trying to force gay people into movies just for the sake of it. Same goes with the diversity crap. I still love SW but god the diverse cast in the last one was annoying.

Being gay isn't an alternative livestyle, you dumb frogposter. True, it's actually a mental disorder with no cure, but I was trying to be nice. You could always ask daddy Pence for conversion shock therapy  Viva La Trump! |

Disney changed when "Talmud types" took it over (though it was never the same after Walt died).
Suddenly the alpha white male became a bad thing. Compare the male lead in Beauty and the Beast 91 to Brom Bones in Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Also, WTF is wrong with a Scandinavian-looking woman? Not just Disney, but all the big Talmud-oriented media companies seem to really despise the blonde white woman. (Jennifer Lawrence is a far cry from the classic white woman features).
If Hollywood is going to do this diversity thing then let's have a separate film industry like Walt Disney wanted-one aimed at those of European heritage.
Then the other Hollywood can kiss ass to China and SJWs all it wants and no one will care.

I could care less if his little gay behind frolics around like a fairy princess and kisses Gaston. He's a minor character and if I were gay, I'd be offended that the first Gay Disney character was him. However, middle America, done. Disney is so stupid. Like 65% or more of their revenue comes from Suburban/Christian families. These same Trump voting gun toting Bible thumping people will now boycott this film. Let's say HALF don't go and don't want to "expose" their kids to a gay character and explain to them why LeFou (French for the fool) wants to poke Gaston... That's millions. I'm not being a close minded bigot, I'm being honest. I know at least 3 families personally who aren't going to see this now. That's 2 parents, 3 kids, maybe friends, and no repeat viewings. Frozen made 1B because families took their kids 10x... A majority of Disney's fanbase is Christian families looking for Family Friendly films. I cannot believe how DUMB Disney can be here. Not to mention World Wide. Places like China and other Asian countries don't tolorate gay people. We're not taking about a difference of a few Million, no, we're taking about possibly making 1.75B WW, and now maybe 850M world wide. Losing nearly a billion, for what? To make 3% of the United States happy? The issue of homosexuality acceptance is evolving, it isn't a fixed issue. At one point, people weren't accepting of African Americans. If a Disney movie featured black characters as protagonists in one of their 30s-50s animated films, they would, as you said, lose a lot of fanbase from your typical Christian conservative family - who either 1) didn't agree that blacks should be portrayed as a happy member of the assimilated community or 2) couldn't relate to black characters because they see them as the "other." But that doesn't mean Disney would be wrong in making a film with black protagonists. One cannot just accept that a certain demographic is hateful and bigoted, and cater to that fanbase permanently. The whole "homosexuality is a sin" craze is a trend that will not exist in a few decades. The children and grandchildren of those Christian families now will not grow up to share the views of their parents. It's an outdated view that has no reason for existing. |

The Bible doesn't say to hate Black people. So the "south" got over racism after a few generations because it's not Biblical. But in Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, homosexuality is a sin. So they won't just "get over it" because it goes against their faith. That's different than a social issue. |

It's all about socially engineering impressionable kids in the new America we live in.

If the movie is good, it won't make a lick of difference.

Could it be that the film just sucks? I'm just asking as I haven't seen it but as the "Beauty" isn't even beautiful I have to wonder.
I do think that Hollyweird is out of touch and "the people" are sick of being preached to.

No, its annoying that people are now so obsessed with making everything 'fair' and 'diverse'. Its blatantly obvious. Like when you have the circle of characters and its alternating from a white guy, to a asian guy, to a black guy and so on its hard not to roll your eyes. Why have obvious politics in a SW movie? The media needs to decking chill already. |

That might explain why Victor Salva and Bryan Singer are listed as producers. Bryan Singer is fucking gross. It's testament to how fucked up Hollywood is that a known child molester is foremost in the industry and continues to work. I recently saw a photo of Singer with his arms around a kid who couldn't have been more than 13 or 14 years old -- and this dude gets away with this stuff because he has money and influence? The same article that printed the photo of Singer with the kid also had photos of his pool parties, which are exclusively populated by young men and boys. It's crazy to think how many of them were molested by Singer and his cronies and promised roles in exchange for sex. |

Just looked this up because I didn't know much about the live action remake, and it says Josh Gad, one of the biggest pieces of shit in Hollywood, is playing the gay character. And Emma Watson, who is filthy rich and famous and wants for nothing yet never stops whining about being oppressed, is the lead.
Those are reasons enough not to like the movie.

I fully support the inclusion of a gay character, what I can't support is the use of auto-tune.

Are you serious? They actually included a gay character in this? A Disney movie? Wow, when I thought Hollywood couldn't pander to the left wing scum any more than they already do. he's the villain's sidekick though. is making one of the most unpleasant characters gay really pandering to the left wing? |

Shoehorning in a league of different ethnicities to fight during the era of the Civil War? Seriously? |
